Sorry if this has been commented on. I signed off TD for the day yesterday and tuned in Biden's live speech carried on Fox around 4 pm and heard him say this quote. But he was mumbling and I wondered if anyone in the press noticed it.

If so, what the hell did he mean by it?

Biden trying to show that PPE would have saved all those doctors lives. He is getting desperate.

My girl works in a hospital.

There is plenty of PPE, the problem is the hospital is hoarding it in case there's a "huge wave".

She's been reusing her mask that gets "cleaned".

I don't doubt that a good many doctors (including PhDs and EdDs) retired and lived in NYC nursing homes and perished in the early days of the pandemic.

I think the said doctors and healthcare workers, like for some magical reason they shouldn't be susceptible to a hard flu when they are way old or have serious underlying health issues.

Besides, this little fact the Left throws out there if like a lot of their "science" is complete and utter bullshite.

He meant 998 Dr.'s have died of heart problems, complications from the 'beetus, and cancer. In a normal year, this number would be higher, so it is no big deal.

Or maybe it was foreshadowing that he is going to kill Dr. Jill for making him publicly embarrass himself daily. Did you know Dr. Jill is a Dr.?

Hey, I got a Dr. appt. Monday. I'm gonna tell him, 'Thank God you weren't one of the 1,000 Drs who died of the Covid.'
He will probably say 'What the hell are you talking about, Zach?'

Covd is all he's got. Too bad he called the President's early actions to control Covid xenophobic and the rest of his crew was publicly encouraging super-spreaders to go out and super-spread. So much for concern from the "Party of Science".

Shouldn't the hospitals (and their enormous operating budgets) be responsible for procuring ppe for their staff anyway?

Why should the federal government be responsible for funding and/or providing ppe for private, huge profit making, business?

I don't know of any, but I know many that have lost their practices, and many more that have been crippled financially. Very few of the resources are going to physicians, especially independent practices. Sorry, but the hospitals are getting fat with gov't money. Our small local hospital got over $6million dollars just in medicare money. Not to mention what they've gotten from the state and over gov't bailouts and the extra pay for COVID. What do we get for treating and diagnosing COVID pt's? Jack shite. Lower revenue and more expenses, yet we still have an abundance of N95's, medical masks, eye shields and gowns. And we only use our N95's one time and swap. Never for more than one patient. There is no shortage. Not all facilities may make them available, but it's only because they choose not to spend a few bucks of the millions they are receiving on PPE. Before I hear the bullshite about hospitals having to hire more staff and shite...No. If that were true, why are hours being cut and nurses and other support staff being laid off? Many with COVID that are admitted don't even need to be, but it's an extra $13k for a COVID admit and $37k if they go on a vent. They'll milk that shite out them DC them still sick back to us. Oddly, they recover much faster when we see them and treat what was really causing their issues. frick Joe Biden and everyone that's falling for this bullshite. And good luck keeping your doctor if he wins. Those that survive this financially aren't going to stand for double down on the Obamacare fricking we're getting. First ones I'm dropping are the medicare folks. Sorry. Elections have consequences. I'd rather make less, and work far less. After being selectively excluded from all the relief for "frontline" workers, physicians are tired of the shite. NP's, PA's, nurses, PT, OT etc are apparently what makes the medical world turn. frick it....rant over.
