According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention website, the CDC has developed a new laboratory test kit for use in testing patient specimens for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the virus that causes COVID-19. The CDC also claims that this test kit is intended for use with the
If there is a buck to be made, he'll do it. He doesn't care that people are dying. He is a sick SOB. I really can't deal with him anymore. He has proven he has free reign. I am mentally drained, physically exhausted, nothing he does surprises me! He is our worst nightmare come to life!
I live in NY, before this Moron entered the WH, it was widely known what a narcissistic, thief he was/is. I personally know 2 contractors that lost their businesses due to his games of claiming bankruptcy to avoid paying contractors. This doesn’t surprise me at all. The World Health Organization offered the US tests, and Moron refused, that’s when I knew he was somehow profiting off of this. We have tested about 5-6000 people ONLY & have over 1500 cases. If you do the math, we are looking at a minimum of 90 million people being infected. I went to the White House site & wrote to Moron, letting him know that he is solely responsible for the virus spreading due to lack of response for fear of the market crashing & his re-election. Wish everyone would write to him so he’s bombarded with all of us concerned Americans that realize how serious this is. Look at Italy, we are on the same projectile but worse because we still haven’t tested. South Korea is testing 10,000 a day, we haven’t even tested 10,000 people total. I have an underlying health condition & both my parents are in their mid 80’s & one is currently under hospice care. I am very worried about my parents & cannot even visit them because I have the flu right now. Have a doc appt tomorrow, but was already told, that if the virus is suspected, I will not be able to be tested. We are going to end up losing so many people to this virus all because of Moron not doing what he is supposed to, put the American public first. If we have elections in November, I truly hope this will be the end of his “reign”!
The guy's corruption keeps reaching lower and lower levels. I keep thinking there must be a point at which even the most ardent acolyte will say "ok, that's enough." Meanwhile, Mitt "47%" Romney, who famously became some sort of a hero for voting in favor of convicting Trump, just voted in the Senate HS committee in favor of proceeding with an investigation of Hunter Biden. If there is a Nuremberg 2.0, that will be a big ass trial.
Also, can anyone explain why, after the World Health Organization shipped test kits to nearly 60 countries, the White House coronavirus taskforce chaired by Vice President Mike Pence, refused the WHO tests to focus on producing an American test?
“Please provide an explanation for why the Covid-19 diagnostic test approved by the World Health Organization was not used,” Sen. Patty Murray, the ranking Democrat on the Senate health committee, who represents the hard-hit state of Washington, asked in a 3½-page letter on the testing fiasco. '
Meanwhile Oscar Health Insurance is being pushed as a front runner for guiding potentially coronavirus infected citizens to testing facilities using their "new locator tool that is based off of information collected directly from Oscar's provider partners."
Oscar Health Insurance was cofounded by Mario Schlosser, Kevin Nazemi and Joshua Kushner.
Yes, brother of Jared Kushner, senior advisor to and son-in-law of President Trump, who delayed an emergency declaration regarding COVID-19, until Kushner 'talks to relevant parties and presents his findings to the president.'
Could it be that those relevant parties included checking in with his brother's company Oscar Health Insurance to ensure they and their provider partners make an obscene amount of money from the outbreak of COVID-19?
Once again, the ineptitude and greed of the Trump administration is throwing our country into chaos and profiting off of its citizens, some of which have died as a result of the delay in available test kits.
No, the article says, Trump says he dumped his stocks but there is no confirmation he did. Obama left a full CDC dept working and helping other countries, Trump took it all apart and fired everyone and he is the evil one.
It is unclear how much is being charged for each test. We know the tests are not “free” although that is the answer that government officials have been told to answer. Insurance companies (after many meetings with the Trump force) are paying something (and YES they are waiving the co-pays....thus giving the angle to say the tests are “free”)......but what amount are insurance companies paying for each test kit (ie not including any testing, just the kit)? Follow the money. Eat the Rich.
German scientists already developed a successful test for the SARS-CoV-2 (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus 2) virus. COVID-19 (Coronavirus Disease 2019) is the sickness caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, just as AIDS is caused by the HIV virus.
Even though there was was a successful test being sent to dozens of countries, Trump refused to accept them, leaving the nation without a proactive approach to fighting the virus for over a month. Why?]
In the meantime, he repeatedly downplayed the seriousness of the situation and put an inexperienced Mike Pense as head of the COVID-19 response. Finally, he politicized it by claiming that the virus is the Democrats' "new hoax," to hurt him and his administration.
Everything about the US response is a model in what not to do.
Not surprising. He is not motivated to do anything unless there is a dollar to be made. His wretched behaviors or absolutely despicable and still these trumper's think he is appointed by God to ruin this country.
I am in no way a Trump supporter (rather, a scientist), but it seems pretty normal to be invested in one of the major suppliers of scientific reagents, equipment, etc. just by nature of investing in a large number of profitable companies. Thermo Fisher is huge.
But whether or not previously holding (substantial ?) stock in the company is suspect, I would agree it is definitely a potential conflict of interest if he or he relatives are standing to profit from this, especially if federal regulations impeded the ability of other companies/labs/etc. to conduct their own research on test development.

So Mr. "I don't believe in science" believes enough to profit
Pat Jones ( below) wrote what we all think as well as anyone could express it. He is a sick SOB and is both morally and ethically bankrupt.

Absolutely disgusting.

We are in the 9th Ring of the Inferno
Tried to get a test for my husband in NY with a 103 fever and a cough, no go. It's disgusting and more people will get sick/die

Any potential whistleblowers in the investor relations department at TMO, or their 3rd party stock transfer agents?
Wow, you could have a real field day if you ever investigated your fellow democrats/leftists! We know you will not...but, we have.
