Even Trump voters ought to understand this. Maybe Dr. Fauci ought to have this guy explain the consequences in these Senate hearings....

I sent this to a lot of people who are in the medical world...I'll bet it gets a lot of kicks from people at Beth Israel , MA, and Lincoln Hospital in the Bronx.

Well, I was just thinking of how Trump hates all minorities. In my social family, we have a young DR. from the the Dominican Republic. He's working double shifts in the Bronx in the CV-19 ward and his wife and son are 300 miles away. Thank God for immigrants.

I'm not willing to spend a half hour of my time watching this.

Can anyone sum it up?

means you have to spend an 1/2 hour to understand the problem. He spells it out in very laymen's terms and it is eye opening.

Its worth being aware of whats going on rather than taking someone's brief of it, BEING brief is what got us into this mess. Make the investment, I am not sorry I did.

I suggest skip the first few minutes where he introduces himself. Summary: he's a doctor.

Then look for the little wheel (lower right corner) for the youtube options. For speed, just pick something faster. Highest is 2x so you can finish in 10!

Hope this helps, and I hope you stay well!

EDIT - I do want to encourage y'all to view this. The material is quite good. He explains that ACE has a role in the process (as in "ACE inhibitor&quot . The sponge demonstration is a little weak, but the discussion and diagrams are worth working through.

Please don't post contextless posts. Honestly, I should not have to go to Google to figure out what you've posted. Really.

I am so tempted to post things that most of you would no have clue about, but I control myself. So please help us all out. Don't post anything that is not obvious to the most casual observer.

I began to watch this days ago and lost it in a reboot. So I appreciate you putting it up so I could watch it through.

It's got a very good explanation. And his forecast is very scary and likely spot on.

Now its 80 thousand. He predicted well over 100 thousand deaths in this country. Best to hunker down for a while!

Once a patient has to go on full respirator support, there's little chance they'll survive. Double tragedy that their famiily members basically never interact with their family member again, it's like they are abducted, then they see a closed casket.
This would be a very good video breaking it down to the basics, heaven knows televised media should be putting this info out there and off of Trump's ugly ass mug. Perhaps some are, I wouldn't know, I neither subscribe to television services nor have time or interest to do so.
I've never seen the tremendously infiltrate filled lungs like this blight can do on patients with comorbidities.
It makes me so angry the protestor groups demanding their free dumbs without masks, without plain common sense nor any decorum AND toting their penis substitutes, I mean... guns.
Perhaps many of the worst of them will remove themselves from the gene pool. Just sayin'...
