    "Dr. Rochelle Walensky: I'm going to lose the script, and I'm going to reflect on the recurring feeling I have of impending doom."

    [Judy Woodruff] "We hear Dr. Rochelle Walensky at the CDC speak of impending doom. These are some of the most sobering words we have heard from the administration in weeks. Are they warranted?

    Dr. Leana Wen:


    Well, Judy, we are seeing that the number of cases are now increasing.

    First, there was a plateau, and now they're increasing, with specific hot spots across the country. We have seen this playbook before. We know what happens next, which is that we will also see a rise in hospitalizations, and, unfortunately, a rise in deaths after that."

    "I want to urge people to get vaccinated when it is your turn, to really keep your risk to a minimum until then and then, after that, know you are very well-protected, but still keep on wearing a mask while in public."

    "It is often framed as, we're now in this race of vaccines vs. variants. And to some extent, that is true, because we do have more transmissible variants. And when we have something that is more transmissible, it means that the activities that we once thought were pretty safe are now going to be higher risk, because something spreads more easily.

    There is a third factor, though, here as well, and that's human behavior. We are seeing restrictions being lifted all over the country. In many states, everything can be operating at 100 percent capacity. And I actually understand the reason to do that. We want our businesses to come back.

    But I don't understand the lifting of mask mandates, because, for the time being, we need to understand masks and vaccines as the ticket back to pre-pandemic normal. That's our ticket out of this pandemic."

    ***

    Do something for your country, anti-maskers, anti-vaxers. Get the vaccine. Wear a mask. Do like your fellow Americans are doing. It's the patriotic thing to do!

    Suicide?

    Even a fatality rate of 5% isn't "suicide". Just needless deaths.

    Hi Politalker,

    Once the vaccine is available to everyone who wants it, life should return to normal. Anyone who chooses to get vaccinated will be protected and anyone who chooses not to has made their decision and can live (or die) with the consequences. Liberty is a great thing!

    The fatality rate for kids is less than 0.01%, so...

    Basically evince is fucktarded. But at least she acknowledges that Trump's vaccine is pretty great.

    Why would they want to rob you out of your freedoms? Do you think that makes sense? What is the payoff? Why do you think the CDC cares about your freedoms? Don't you understand how foolish that is? They are trying to cut down on the Trump virus so we can return to normalcy. That is what they do.

    For everyone it's much higher. Again, needless deaths...not that you or Trump gives a fuck.

    If Trump's vaccine was so great, why do so many Republicans refuse to take it?

    PBS and any other media source can present interviewees using hyperbole, and often do. Whether they call them on it is the mark of real journalism.

    That's an excellent question. They want to give him credit for it, but refuse to get it themselves because they don't understand it, they think it's poison, or other ridiculous reasons. Imagine voting for and supporting someone who would give you poison, for a minute. It boggles the mind how these Cultists can do mind pretzels.

    In other news, half of all eligible Americans have received at least one dose of one of the vaccines. This is extraordinary!

    Agreed but that's not what happened. The CDC Director didn't warn of impending doom. She said "I'm going to reflect on the recurring feeling I have of impending doom." She has a feeling, but isn't warning of impending doom as the PBS/OP title states. It's hyperbole.

    It's the Jewish Liberal nanobots in the vaccine that concerns them. They're afraid it will reprogram them to be gay liberals. I don't want to be judgy here, but it appears being an ignorant, anti-science Trumpster has a downside.
