Reposted from : Trump Boosts False Conspiracy Theory That Doctors And CDC Are ‘Lying’ About COVID
This is a new disease and a pandemic. Of course thoughts may change as the medical and scientific communities learn more about covid-19. Recommendations will also change as to what is best practice, based on data and experience. As we learn more, we alter our previous approaches owing to advances in our understanding of the different aspects of the disease. Any intelligent individual ought to change their initial thoughts of a disorder when new observations suggest the change, which then leads to new or modified treatments that show improved patient outcomes. It’s called the scientific method based on causality. This is what works.
If you show me an individual who has not allowed his thinking to change based on the identification and understanding of facts (NOT political wishes) and testable treatment changes that help, I will show you a person who should not be in charge. Of course Dr. Fauci’s statements have evolved as more is learned about covid-19 - it’s the reason he is a true leader. President Trump and his administrative enablers need to realize it’s not about them, but the people they represent, which should be all US citizens. But that’s another story…
Meanwhile, President Trump and his Republican enablers are responsible for a very large fraction of the 135,000 covid-19 fatalities in this country, a number that will only increase. Do not allow misdirection - stay on topic. His inactions and illogical throught have led to the deaths of far too many people. Same goes for the Republican Party - as they are complicit. The President should be charged with gross indifference and manslaughter.
