Quarantining has required us all to sacrifice. But we’re Americans. History shows when we work together, we can do anything.

Yeah, but social distancing was factored into the original 2.2 million death estimate. To go from that to 60K means one has to question the accuracy of the model.

No, the 2.2 million was a worst-case scenario without social distancing measures. And that was Dr. Neil M. Ferguson, a British epidemiologist, not Dr. Fauci.

"The 2.2 million figure was a projection based on a scenario where not only do the government and private companies not engage in any 'control measures,' but individuals don't on their own change their behavior to avoid contracting or spreading the virus."

lol Trump and Dr. Fauci have been contradicting each other left and right throughout this crisis. I was afraid Fauci was going to get sacked after he said this stuff, but Trump thought better of it. An interesting spectacle to say the least.

One of them knows what's doing on.

So Trump hiring and not firing him is of no consequence in the "deserving" dept, hey KF?

Make up your mind; Trump is an idiot and can't tie his shoes without Fauci, and wants him fired.

Or, he hired him and keeps him because of his "expertise" in coming up with (wildly in)accurate numbers based on his models. Which is it?

It's been hot and cold between them. I hope he does

Your point is well taken, imo. A leader doesn't have to be an expert. I don't think the average American, who looks at this situation with an ordinary amount of concern and interest, expects Trump to be an expert. They expect him to consider all pertinent info (medical, scientific, statistical, ECONOMIC) and make the best decisions possible.

What did?

"Fauci lowers U.S. coronavirus death forecast to 60,000, says social distancing is working"

Other than the fact that Dr. Fauci needs to work on his syntax, do you have any reason to disagree with Dr. Fauci's explanation for the revised projections?

That was a whole month before this

Can't wait for this rat faced, self serving bureaucrat to get off my TV.

Hello troll, nice account name you have chosen for today

Your flaming hot take is noted and dismissed

Whatever.
Pretty cheeky for you to call anyone else a troll, seeing as how you're a paid liar.
And not a very imaginative or bright one, at that.
So it doesn't mean very much to be called names by someone at the very bottom of the barrel. (You)

What is your evidence that I'm a paid liar?

Why are you back here with a new account every damn day? And do you have a name you'd prefer to go by? Otherwise, you're just "that right-wing ImgFlip troll who's always back with a new account"

Too funny

It's as good of evidence as anything else I've said

It takes so little to tie you up in knots, doesn't it? Idiot.

Do you have a name you'd like to go by other than the SN you've chosen for the day?

Why? Are you making cute little name tags for everyone?
Idiot.

Just for you

Everyone else has a real name

Everyone else has a made up Imgflip ID, not a real name on here.
You blithering idiot.

You sure seem to know a lot about ImgFlip for someone who's had his account less than a day

You sure seem to be a blithering idiot.
But I admire your dedication to your chosen profession: Idiot.

Is Dr. Fauci doing a good job or not?

What does Strontium have to do with this crisis?

Dhaka, actually know that one off the top of my head

You're still asking irrelevant questions tho

Dr. Fauci is Trump's appointed expert to deal with the biggest national crisis we've faced in a long time. Dr. Fauci has advised six Presidents on HIV/AIDS and many other domestic and global health issues.

Is he doing a good job or not?
