I agree to disagree , I think he should retire Of course a person of Dr Fauci's character and expertise understands what's going on in India! Saying he "forgets the poverty " there is idiotic, imo.

The original RC-64 was voice-matched to a warmer speaker, the RF-83. My guess is if you can't find the RC-7, then try and find a deal on the RC-64II which went with the next generation of RF-7II.

Otoh, we now know of the dangers of contracting Covid-19. Americans are lucky that we have several vaccines whereas other parts of the world are still going through turmoil because they don't.

Check out the links to scientists at the beginning of the thread--They seemed to know what they were talking about given where we are at today.

You never really seemed to care about an answer. Again, I suggest watching a couple of the videos you missed earlier in the thread.

When did you realize that Covid-19 wasn't like the common flu?

You added the above after I responded but I DID look at the date and why I posted the link to the CDC. Fwiw, by March 10th it was obvious it wasn't going to be like the common flu for a myriad of reasons. There isn't any stalking involved. I think your observation that kicked off this discussion was political given who was making that claim while on the next day it was declared a pandemic. https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/icd/Announcement-New-ICD-code-for-coronavirus-3-18-2020.pdf On March 11, 2020 the Novel Coronavirus Disease, COVID-19, was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization. On March 13, 2020 a national emergency was declared in the United States concerning the COVID-19 Outbreak.

I'm not sure what you consider "nonsense," but: {EDIT Note: By March 10, 2020 it was obvious Covid-19 wasn't "like the common flu."} I'm not sure when or if you changed your mind but maybe you can shed light on when that happened?

I didn't include the Wuhan portion of your quote. I'm not sure when or if you changed your mind but maybe you can shed light on when that happened. I thought several of the responses to your claim were worthy including this one: Fwiw, I suggest going back and watching that video.

Sure it is and I suggest folks talk to their doctor instead of listening to pundits and politicians.

You may think not but I remember distinctly who was making that claim and it wasn't from a medical source or the CDC. Google who was saying it at the time or give a link to your source.

There isn't any stalking involved.

Okay by me...On that note: Who were you paying attention to when you made the above comment?

Btw, I purposefully didn't respond to the above because we were warned not to go there...Fwiw, I do blame China's initial response but don't think the WHO is covering up anything.

Those are the top scientist who have historically dealt with global pandemics. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention - Wikipedia Its main goal is to protect public health and safety through the control and prevention of disease, injury, and disability in the US and worldwide.[4] The CDC focuses national attention on developing and applying disease control and prevention. It especially focuses its attention on infectious disease, food borne pathogens, environmental health, occupational safety and health, health promotion, injury prevention and educational activities designed to improve the health of United States citizens. World Health Organization - Wikipedia The WHO's broad mandate includes advocating for universal healthcare, monitoring public health risks, coordinating responses to health emergencies, and promoting human health and well being.[7] It provides technical assistance to countries, sets international health standards and guidelines, and collects data on global health issues through the World Health Survey. Its flagship publication, the World Health Report, provides expert assessments of global health topics and health statistics on all nations.[8] The WHO also serves as a forum for summits and discussions on health issues.[1] Sure. I bolded the last line above because it has happened with Covid-19 while I and others have posted links to those discussions and research. Fwiw, I think you are putting the emphasis in the wrong place--There have been some "nutjob" opinions and those are what leads to "skepticism and distrust among the general population." Of course those aren't found in mainstream media (unless newsworthy because a politician or elected official is making those comments) but circulate on social media which have lead to scrutiny to how those companies operate...Fwiw, I think they should be responsible for what circulates on their platforms. Right now they are trying to police themselves and if that doesn't work government will be lobbied to get involved. That's my take.
