Chelsea Clinton and Devi Sridhar, CNN: Under Trump, America is less prepared for a coronavirus outbreak
(CNN)The coronavirus that emerged from Wuhan, China, last year is causing alarm across the world, with fear that this could become the next pandemic. Late last month, the World Health Organization declared the virus, named COVID-19, a "Public Health Emergency of International Concern" and urged an immediate international response.
It advised its member states to put in place national preparedness plans and procedures for identifying and responding to any COVID-19 cases that might present. The death toll of more than 2,600 people far exceeds that of the SARS outbreak nearly 17 years ago.
This outbreak is terrifying for the tens of millions of people impacted in Wuhan and in countries around the world, and it arguably could not come at a worse time for Americans.
There's a famous adage in public health: "Outbreaks are inevitable; epidemics are not."

WNU Editor: Chelsea Clinton is teaching at the Mailman School of Public Health at Columbia?!?!? When did she become an expert in public health?
When people like Schumer, Clinton, Pelosi, et al start their chatter, it tells me that the actual threat is past us and now the political shit-flinging begins.
ReplyDeleteAnd I just tune them out.
So, a card carrying membe of the "open borders" club lectures Trump on pandemic control? That's rich. Now she's morphed into a public health expert. Absolutely can't make this crap up.

ReplyDeleteAs the spawn of Democrat Nobility, Renaissance Woman Chelsea has more skills than the Talented Mr. Ripley.
She boosted NBC viewership for the mere $600,000 salary she was paid. It was no quid pro quo between her parents and NBC.
She learned about such matters while you were busy badmouthing her
ReplyDeleteThey be doing period pieces on Chelsea Clinton life like they do period pieces of Duchesses and other fops doing the grand Tour in the 1700s.
ReplyDeleteI remember some enlisted talking about a lieutenant colonel in a small office. I remember how they disparaged the colonel''s academic of accomplishments of getting his masters degree while on active duty. The gist of of it was that he crammed 10 hours of work into a 40 hour work week.
Between being an incredibly rich and powerful, well connected celebrity and her previous exploits (NBC), Chelsea could not fail, if she took up a degree in particle physics are MIT.
If Chelsea was so good at her jobs at McKinsey & Company and Avenue Capital Group, why did she quit? I mean I would quit too after making 50 to 100 million after 20 years, but not bounce around and quit after 6 years.
Her dissertation on AIDS really set her up for life at McKinsey & Company and Avenue Capital Group. Only an English Major would be so gullible.
If Chelsea was so good, why did her husband have to work? Why did he quit? He had a spectacular flame-out after his mother-in-law lost the presidential election. No Mama president; no influence; no business. So he folded.
I am not drinking the Kool Aid, but you go ahead.
ReplyDeleteWe have college that openly have legacy preferences. That is a thumb on the scale.
We just went through a year of college admissions cheating scandal, which is still ongoing.
That is another kind of thumb on the scale.
We have seen how Weinstein intimidated and raped women based on his mere association with powerful Democrats such as the Clintons. Things get done whether the name is spoken or not.
The admissions officers have to know that Chelsea is the child of Bill and Hillary. No payoff or test scores needed. She automatically gets in.
So you expect me to believe that had Chelsea not been a Clinton, she would have been accepted to the schools that she was accepted at, got the degrees that she got, and go the book and TV deals that she got.
What kind of TV rating did Chelsea get?

I am not buying it.
Parrots on the other hand are gullible. They repeat anything.
blah blah blah
ReplyDeleteeasy enough to snipe, badmouth, sneer...but she is an acomplished woman and she knows what she is doing...and that is a lot more than the oafs here that scoff and play with themselves

Are you serious? The above is babbling, saying nothing beyond your manifest inabilities.

ReplyDeleteJesse Jackson successfully pressured corporation to have people placed on corporate boards. Does he or the people he wants have the necessary knowledge?
It was either a board seat or a boycott. The corporations chose board seat.
You see CEOs and former CEOs being placed on corporate boards. Given the track record of some in managing or mismanaging their own corporations you have to wonder if they are there because of ability, inertia, or good ole boy network.
Then there are people on the board placed there, because of their affinity network. They get 40K a year for very little work. With a few of those, people are in the top 1% doing very little work, and based on no ability. A couple board meeting a year where you have to pay your airfare and hotel (?) and not doing your homework, for a 6 figure salary if you have 2 or 3 or more gigs. Trust me this conversation was had around the dinner table 2 decades and not at the prompting of some activist's or journalist's article.
You think you are angry?
Just identified a Kesselschlacht that you are willing to engage.
At my alma mater, when a person washes out of pre-med, engineering, biology (genetics), the university 'reworks' the student s rather than scrapping them and losing the revenue stream.
ReplyDeleteThese washouts get sent to the academic ghetto and become English or poly-sci majors.
Remember Higher Education is BIG ED and the name of the game is butts in the seats not education.
Universities are churning out as many idiots as learned people with a decent degree and have been doing so for decades.
PS: When you can't make it as an English major, you can always go lower. Women's Studies
:)
ReplyDeleteIt is a thing. Universities have dumping grounds.
What are the majors in NUS which is so called dumping ground?
Which majors are they?
Yours.

ReplyDeleteA struck a chord. the great Illogical one can do nothing but sputter.
Here is what I have observed.
Genetics to Poly Sci
Pre-Med to English
Engineering to English
What are the trends?
Generally
STEM to Humanities
Specifically
STEM to English (The end of the line)
I'm so impressed by women in the workplace. Good God now she's a health expert. Before that a climate activist. An executive board member. There's no stopping what women can do. She's a go getter. A trend setter. A name taker, s single mom and loving wife. She's all that and so much more. Just better than men.
