MSNBC, via Real Clear Politics (clear, indeed)

So many clear agendas here.

quote:

Realistically, COVID-19 will be here for the next 18 months or more. We will not be able to return to normalcy until we find a vaccine or effective medications. I know that's dreadful news to hear. How are people supposed to find work if this goes on in some form for a year and a half? Is all that economic pain worth trying to stop COVID-19? The truth is we have no choice.

If we prematurely end that physical distancing and the other measures keeping it at bay, deaths could skyrocket into the hundreds of thousands if not a million. We cannot return to normal until there's a vaccine. Conferences, concerts, sporting events, religious services, dinner in a restaurant, none of that will resume until we find a vaccine, a treatment, or a cure.

The conferences will rebound but keep everything else shut for a year to 18 months and you might as well fold it up now... Maybe the theater was an oversight on his part?

That was a super awkward speech. I lasted 54 seconds. That wasn’t an interview, that was an agenda. Very rehearsed.

He gave us Obamacare. His opinion on public health policy is therefore invalid.

I'm sure if someone asked him he would probably be willing to negotiate the shutdown of the economy to early November though.

No one should take this man or anyone who says stuff like this seriously.

Is there a vaccine for AIDS? No? We still get on with our lives.

Cure for the common cold?

How much flu has been cured and eliminated?

I no longer need Democrats to talk. I need them to die.

Ezekiel is a mental midget. Doing such a thing would only destroy the country and no way for it to rebound in our lifetime. It's exactly what the dumb lefties want to have happen though.

We are going to go back to work and some people will get sick and die. Life goes on.

Why should we listen to this hack about literally anything?

I missed it.

Some stuff deserves repetition, though.

There will more killed from civil unrest than Covid would kill if that happened.

There’s already a ton of pressure from people to start opening back up. 18 months is asinine

Wish someone would have asked him if he’d be okay with postponing the Presidential Election for an equal amount of time.

Hopefully they keep chirping that so the GOP can keep bringing it back up before Nov. People are freaking out about their financial & mental stability with a 1 month "lock down" wait until the Dim candidates start telling everyone they will lock it back down if they win in Nov.

False. We have choices. Especially when it’s beginning to be clear the disease is nowhere near the danger it was initially projected to be.
