84% of Republicans place either a great deal or a fair amount of trust in Donald Trump to make the right recommendations when it comes to health issues. That's significantly higher than any healthcare agency comprised of medical professionals and scientists who have trained and dedicated their whole lives to the study of medicine and public health. Instead they choose the guy who suggested injecting disinfectant.

Can anyone explain to me the logic of ending collaboration with the WHO?

Not sure what he would ever have to make some decision on. Ask stupid questions you get stupid answers and stupid posts
 
This is one of the best indicators of just how stupid our country has become. This is the guy that tried to tank ACA, but fortunately McCain was still around to stop it as he had dignity and character. If ACA was shredded, insurance companies would be back in total control and thousands would lose access to insurance. It would not have been a firing squad taking people out, but the end result would be the same thing. Former speaker Boehner said it best after he retired, “there is no Republican Healthcare plan.”
 
Who has been bought exactly?
Look at the major donors list either party. Corey Booker comes to mind. Nothing changes with healthcare. Obamacare made some nice changes getting more individuals covered and eliminating preexisting conditions. Unfortunately it got us more closely tied to private insurance companies as well. Especially with the VI that is happening amongst the biggest provider UHC.

The ACA has been a complete disaster which handed absurd amounts of power (and money) to insurance companies and big healthcare. Quality is down and prices have spiked massively. Thanks obama.

This is a sad state of affairs, and utterly predictable.

When the science and health community debased themselves by deciding that politics was more important than truth, the effect was always going to be this.

In the end, the #resistance did nothing but utterly destroy the idea of institutional trust, and Trump is back anyway.

Just a disaster all around.

Those things were already happening. Obamacare didn’t curtail them.
Our aging population and new technology costs have driven things. That and our garbage diets leading to more chronic conditions are draining us. That’s one thing I agree with RFK on get a lot of additives that provide zero nutritional value banned.

No, social media allowed for bullshit to flood the space so people just think the science and health community "debased themselves". They were actually using science, the opposition used the uncertainty around the early findings as a wedge to get people to complete distrust sound practice and now here we are today.

Do you think the Democrats would attempt to go to a socialized healthcare system if they knew they had the votes for it? I don't believe I will see it in my lifetime.

Hopefully you're doing well, by the way.

Based on how Trump is running things the next Democratic President just needs to Executive Order universal healthcare into existence.

When the medical community claimed that Sturgis was a homicidal super spreader event, but COVID wouldn't spread in BLM riots...that was it.

When they plainly lied and supressed the lab leak theory.

"Science" in the Trump era took up resistance, and they debased themselves. On masking children. On the vaccine's effectiveness. On school closures. On gatherings. On natural immunity.

Then they did the same on gender transitions in minors and gender ideology in general.

There's barely a scientific authority of any kind that didn't totally reveal themselves as totally unserious liars or fools when it came to questions with political overtones.

Or, I guess you still think COVID came from the wet market, learning loss wasn't a thing, the vaccines prevented transmission, children in danger from Covid and needed vaccination? Because "science" said it.

Abandonment of authority is a tragedy of immense proportions that will reverberate for generations.

You're usually better than this.
 
In fact, similar shares of Republicans say they trust President Trump (84%), Dr. Oz (83%), and RFK Jr. (81%) as say they trust their own doctors (84%) to make the right recommendations on health issues.

😂

I’ve never understood this argument.

There’s a big difference between outdoor riots you can’t control vs planned large gatherings. I recall early on a few instances of conferences being held and many attendees came down with COVID.

If Sturgis was a ride through entirely outside then I think there’s a point to be made. But it’s week or two of people crowded into indoor spaces at a time when nobody had a good handle on transmission methods.
