(As a side note, I do want to focus this on bad medicine and bad medical science, as opposed to the widely attributed bad governance, but I want to acknowledge – while I have that STAT article open – that this happened:

Quote:

It goes– It goes through air, Bob. That's always tougher than the touch, you know, the touch– you don't have to touch things, right? But the air, you just breathe the air and that's how it's, uh, passed. Aaaand so, that's a very tricky one. That's a very delicate one. It's also more deadly that your, you know, your– even your strenuous flus. You know, people don't realize: we lose twenty-five thousand, thirty thousand people a year here. Who would ever think that, right?

[...]

And then I said, well, is that the same thing? This is more deadly. This is five per... you know, this is five percent versus one percent and less than one percent, you know? So, this is deadly stuff.

End quote

You know who said that?
