Birx said 'there is nothing from the CDC that I can trust' in a White House coronavirus task force meeting
Business Insider ^ | 5/10/20

Deborah Birx, the White House's coronavirus task force response coordinator, blasted the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in a White House coronavirus task force meeting during a discussion on COVID-19 data, according to The Washington Post.

"There is nothing from the CDC that I can trust," she told CDC Director Robert Redfield, two people familiar with the meeting told the newspaper.

The Post reported that Birx and others feared that the CDC's statistics on mortality rate and case counts were inflated by up to 25%.

Birx later told The Post in a statement that "mortality is slowly declining each day."

"To keep with this trend, it is essential that seniors and those with comorbidities shelter in place and that we continue to protect vulnerable communities," she said.

Yet other sources have shown that mortality in the US remains close to 2,000 daily deaths — and does not show a steady downward trajectory, as Birx said.

All the numbers on covid are manipulated garbage. I think at this point the only way to tell if we even had a problem is to count the dead from all causes and see if the death burden is significantly higher than previous years.

At each of these update pressers, they should give covid numbers as well as “regular” flu numbers side by side.

Agreed. All these Big Pharma types—including Redfield, Azar, Hahn and the Fauc himself—need to go, with prosecutions where warranted.

If you go to the CDC website, they’re still prescribing the diet that made these people obese and diabetic and therefore, more susceptible to any new virus or other challenges.

So we have a lot more really sick people living longer — which is no secret — and kept in that state with no prospects for recovery and improvement. They just call it “chronic” conditions so they can be treated by those practitioners — for life. Nowhere is that more true than in the “allergy” scams — where despite your known aversion to certain foods, airborne and topical allegens, they recommend that one shouldn’t cut them out entirely — and find what the body thrives on. Instead, they prescribe a treatment that keeps it tolerable.

The primary vulnerability of the human body is the respiratory system so when they directed everybody not to wear masks and protect themselves — it was the perfect prescription for infecting as many people as possible. Then they directed us to give up all healthful activities — like going outside and socializing in the sunlight and fresh air, or going to gyms and exercising anymore. So the advice is exactly what one would expect — if they wanted to make as many as sick as possible — meanwhile, directing the media to suppress all alternative sources.

So who to distrust most?

Yak... yak... yak... perpetuating this mess, week after week, promoting confusion, hysteria and panic. Trump should have shut this circus down a month ago. Who needs a daily body count from every state every day? This reminds me of the breathless daily body counts by the news during Vietnam. The news continues th seek glorifying American deaths.

These are the private meeting remarks of Dr. Bird.
That’s not how you distance yourself from anything with the public.

Yes, how ironic the CDC would opine on “mail-in voting”?

That in and of itself tells one all needs to know.

A politicized judiciary, bureaucracy and law enforcement

Healthy seniors will not be “ sheltering in place” while these games continue. However if they want to issue a decree on isolating and locking down politicians over 75, I’m good with it.

Fauci is dirty and deep state.
Not sure about Birx. I think she is seeing an opportunity to extract herself from that world.

Any news organization that uses ploys such as “Other sources” is not to be trusted.

It's clear from the beginning of this article that its slant or twist is to slander Trump and anyone associated with him. All news is like that anymore and I do not use these sources even the local news stations here in Dayton Ohio (another ahole liberal democratic communist anti-american sanctuary city filled with young people with toilet paper degrees and heads filled with twisted mush they think is an education).

From 1980 to 1994, Birx served as an active duty reserve officer in the United States Army. From 1994 to 2008, Birx was active duty regular Army, achieving the rank of Colonel.

Birx comment “there is nothing from the CDC that I can trust,” is MORE interesting as Birx served from 2005 to 2014, Birx served as the DIRECTOR of Centers for Disease Control [CDC] and Prevention’s Division of Global HIV/AIDS (DGHA), part of the agency’s Center for Global Health.
