It's fuckin weird that Fauci spent decades being a respected professional in the medical field but only just became about politics when Trump is President.

Fuckin weird.

Let’s give Fauci a pass on underestimating the virus for two months and opposing the travel ban. Two more passes for lying about masks and opposing hydro. He does need to explain why he shut down two studies on masks effectiveness and was the driving force behind the recent plasma ban. Trump once again went against the scientists and leveraged the FDA to reinstate plasma treatments. If Fauci isn’t politically motivated, he really sucks at his job. Whatever the case is he needs a good firing and public shaming. Now Biden says he would 100% listen to the scientists. I assume plasma wouldn’t be a viable treatment in his administration.

Blood pressure medication may reduce coronavirus-related deaths, severity of illness: study

Certain high blood pressure medications may help reduce the severity of disease and mortality rates for those infected with the novel coronavirus, according to a new study published in the journal Current Atherosclerosis Reports.

Researchers from the University of East Anglia looked at 19 studies in the meta-analysis involving approximately 28,000 patients who took antihypertension medications such as Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme inhibitors (ACEi) or Angiotensin Receptor Blockers (ARB) and found they had less of a risk of severe illness and deaths from the virus than those who did not take the medications. The investigators stated in the university’s news release that they looked at “critical” outcomes of the patients, such as ICU admissions, being put on a ventilator, and death.

“Hypertensive patients with COVID-19 who were on ACEi/ARB were 0.67 times less likely to have a fatal/critical outcome than those not on ACEi/ARB. ACEi/ARB was also associated with a significantly lower risk of death in hypertensive patients," the researchers stated.

“COVID-19 patients with high blood pressure who were taking ACEi/ARB medications were 0.67 times less likely to have a critical or fatal outcome than those not taking these medications," they added.

These countries have never reported a coronavirus case

These islands did what no other country managed to: Keep the coronavirus wholly out of their borders.

Across the globe, there are only 10 United Nations member countries with no recorded COVID-19 cases. All Pacific Ocean islands, they are the Republic of Palau, Micronesia, the Republic of Nauru (a microstate of Micronesia), the Republic of the Marshall Islands, the Republic of Kiribati, the Solomon Islands, Tuvalu, the Independent State of Samoa, the Republic of Vanuatu and the Kingdom of Tonga, the BBC reported.

It's a good thing Trump wasn't in charge of their COVID response strategies.

I’m sure you would have praised him had he treated us like an island, completely shut everything down, including the borders in the middle of his impeachment. That’s how the US could have been like those islands and he should have done all that.
