Medal Of Freedom Should Be Given To Doctors At UW Who Ignored CDC And Stopped Outbreak

A guest on the Don Lemmon show on CNN said around February 10 doctors at the UW risked their careers, ignored the CDC and tested flu study samples for the corona virus. They found a 15 year old who tested positive and stopped him as he was entering his school. He was going to school SICK.

These doctors risked their livelihoods ignoring the Trump Gang, did the testing against the CDC's wishes, and stopped an outbreak AT A FRIGGING SCHOOL.

Imagine if the sick kid infected a few dozen other kids, who infected a few dozen more kids each, and then they all went to visit their grandmas and grandpas.

These doctors may have saved hundreds of lives.

Medal Of Freedom I Say!!!

I am watching the interview again on CNN. Elizabeth Cohen is the medical expert doing the interview.

top level medal because the Presidential Medal of Freedom is permanently tainted by the egregiously awful presentations made by the current "president".

She was very proud and pleased with the accolade.

She said:
"UW has set up a drive thru for staff and family. We can literally pull up in our car never get out and get tested in mins."
