1,200+ Health Professionals Sign Letter Approving of Floyd Protests – but Disapproving of Lockdown Protests
Breitbart ^ | June 06 2020 | ALANA MASTRANGELO

More than 1,200 health professionals have signed a letter saying that they approve of protests against racism during the Chinese virus pandemic, because it is “vital to the national public health.” The health professionals added, however, that protesting lockdown orders is still dangerous, and is also “rooted in white nationalism.” According to the letter, “White supremacy is a lethal public health issue that predates and contributes to COVID-19.”

A group of healthcare and medical professionals wrote an open letter expressing their support for protests against racism in the wake of the death of George Floyd — despite the pandemic that so many health officials have been warning the public about — adding that such protests against racism should not be shut down due to coronavirus fears, reports CNN.

“As public health advocates, we do not condemn these gatherings as risky for COVID-19 transmission,” wrote the health professionals in their letter. “We support them as vital to the national public health and to the threatened health specifically of Black people in the United States.”

"... we do not condemn these gatherings as risky for COVID-19 transmission,” ...

Because who would know better that CV is a hoax.

CV incubation period 5 days.

13 straight days of rioting.

No spike in cases.

No Lives Matter to Progressives.

The opinion of 1200+ commies: 'social justice' rioting is worth the risk of getting the virus, but re-opening your church or business, or protesting the unjust lockdowns is not worth it.

This country has turned its back on God and embraced Marxism, hedonism, and idolatry. Those who have done so in the past have not long endured on the earth.

Screaming idiots. My church is restricted to ten people in a service. No touching or singing. Sit apart with masks. Sanitize the church after the ten people leave.

These would be the health care “professionals” that would prefer to not treat white people, I’m sure.

CNN probably wrote the open letter, then used their usual leftist phd’s to sign it. They might not even be real health scientists, because …”who would ever check of the validity of any of CNN’s claims.
