“So sue me,” Dr. Fauci explained.
WHY is it taking so darned long?
Why?
What the heck?
That’s right, Doc. Time to kicks some rears into gear.
The only food left on amazon pantry is doritos, potato chips, soda and ice cream bars.
At least I won’t have to deviate from my usual eating habits :)
Yeah, the testing kits were being distributed using New Orleans school buses, as is the NIH's usual practice.
Debbie Blabbermouths greasy disgusting lice-infested hair is a bigger public health threat than the corona virus!
At least I wont have to deviate from my usual eating habits :)
Yeah. A Nutella on Christmas Cookies diet must be supplemented by food in order to sustain life.
lol
I made my way to the beer cooler. Everything was still in order, praise the Lord...
Creating a test for a new virus is not easy. Given that China was very little help when this all started set us back in getting an accurate kit out. I really wonder how much of the ability to create test kits exists in this country. Were we dependent on foreign sources (China) for kits? That would explain a lot.
lol
That’s plenty of calories to survive :)
At my weight, sustained food shortages of 18 months would get me back to my college weight
The WH should ditch the other 8-9 jokers that fill up the stage to give Academy Award type speeches and go with just the Doc here. Let him answer honestly and freely - admit screwups (like this test situation), point to progress and lend hope for the future.
Coming from the MSDNC! Enough said!! NothingButCrap!
So fire him already. I think the reason that supporters dont blame Trump is that we know government employees are incompetent. Hes the only thing that works in government.....
Well, they tried to make it unnecessary complex (the 3 test
in 1 bit) which was an unforced error on our part. Any
plans we have that rely on the good-will or economic
cooperation with China were ill considered.

RE: Coming from the MSDNC! Enough said!! NothingButCrap!
Sorry, I believe this article as long as they don’t take his words out of context.
This is going to be an unpopular opinion here, but this issue was critical enough for Trump to get personally involved and ensure the tests were distributed. The fact that were still struggling to make that happen is not a good reflection on him or his administration. He needs to get this turned around, rapidly.
Ive been a huge supporter of Pres Trump, but this is very disappointing.
