    1. Charles Leiber, a Harvard Professor, got in trouble for taking money from China to recruit Harvard trained scientists to work in China. Because of his position he was supposed to file documents saying he was getting paid by a foreign government to do something and he did not. The actual recruitment itself is not illegal. Everybody wants scientists trained at top American universities.

      A completely different guy, Zaosong Zheng, stole vials containing CANCER CELLS from a Boston medical center and tried to smuggle them out of the country to China to use for research there.

      The two cases are not related and neither case has anything to do with coronavirus or Covid19.

    2. Hey Gabe, I suspect you and Sarah Palin have something really big in common.
      You can both see Russia from your own house.

    3. I believe you are referring to a scientist that worked in conjunction with the NIH. He was not arrested, Trump pulled funding for an political reason.. he doesn’t want Americans to know that the virus is in fact naturally occurring and not man made in a lab… Because he then cannot blame China for the fact he, along with them, hid critical warnings and developments.. he is as bad as the Chinese at misinformation and propaganda.

  1. I don’t know about you guys I am more afraid of dying of all age than coronavirus. Why you ask because I know dying of old age is certain but coronavirus is not.

    1. @Mark of Excellence that was a great speech! I just don’t understand why everybody thinks they’re going to die from coronavirus.

    2. @Mark of Excellence 80,000 out of over 300 million people is not a lot. Yes, it’s sad but that’s life. Thousands of people died every year from the flu.

    3. @Rino Ponce
      I value life. I also value the Constitution, and how it protects our right to Life, Liberty, and Pursuit of happiness.

      Do you value only your own rights, but not the rights of others?

  2. I still don’t understand why they won’t let the doctors try different treatments. If the current protocol doesn’t work, why keep it? Why did governers ban the use of chloroquine when it was so effective against sars-covid1? Shouldn’t treatment of the critically ill be decided by the patients, their families and their doctor, especially when everything else up to that point has failed? Why is social media suppressing so much content if it doesn’t come from “authoritative sources?” Why must the info first have to travel through the WHO or the CDC first, especially since the info we have gotten from those two sources has been so misleading and ineffective?

    1. chloroquine killed more than it helped. studies that said it worked were not properly done.

    2. One word: Thalidomide. If you are not old enough to remember it, I recommend the link below. It is effective for cancer and other conditions but it has the unfortunate effect of causing babies to be born dead or without limbs. This was KNOWN early on, but the pharmaceutical company continued to push it and deny the effects. It was widely used in Europe but its initial entry into the US market was prevented by Frances Kelsey at the FDA. We have these agencies for a reason. They may not be perfect, but nothing created by humans is. I’ll trust an imperfect CDC or FDA before I’ll trust for-profit drug manufacturers. How many more Thalidomides would we have had without regulation? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thalidomide

  3. Thanks for at least having this discussion. More of this. Indefinite lockdown with no end or plan in sight is a fail just like abstinence only education. We need a working economy and people require social interaction.

  4. What happened to the Harvard head of bio research department that lied about his ties to the lab in wuhan and had all that cash from them discovered.i know he was taken into custard

    1. @Sophie Robinson I was going to post the same thing, but I’m a little slow on the trigger…I just had a couple of pop tarts

  5. There is another shame out there———those who are shaming the people who ARE doing the right thing, behaving the way of distancing and masking and even gloves. and dumpster supporters in Michigan are doing that.

    1. U know who isn’t the hospitals and the rehabilitation centers.my aunt fell off step stool last month she hurt her shoulder and hip.She wanted to go home they told her she needed a rehab.She whent.rehab was riddle with deaths and active cases.she already had lung damage from smoking and it was in her med history now she’s on deaths door with cornavirus.so our frontline hero’s turned a fall with non life threat injury into another cornavirus death.put there not responsible right.It was dangerous and reckless stupit action on both hospital and rehabilitation Center for her being allowed to be there

  6. German intelligence came out today and said the Chinese we’re between 4 to 6 weeks late in alerting the world…think were the only ones in the world mad- disappointed with China?

  7. Everything about a demonic control being is grandiose and worthy of fawning slave love, politicians seem way into this severe personality disorder

  8. Liberals don’t care because the majority of them don’t work anyway! For the rest of us, it’s time to get back to work!

  9. It’s pathetic people can’t stay home without having mental breakdowns, Americans have really become weak.

  10. whenever I want to see how dumb people can get, I come read the comments supporting msnbc videos
