Folks—something big is afoot... the CDC is soon holding its first press conference since the start of the pandemic. #COVID19

➡️ Hope this means CDC doesn’t give a damn what Trump does or says anymore. Hope CDC is waking up from its long 10 month censorship oppression.

LFG ✊🏼.
2) For example: Trump officials and CDC scientists waged a nasty battle over reopening guidelines for churches. Pence went ballistic after it was published and forced CDC to delete it. All proven and documented science censorship malfeasance by Trump/Pence WH. #COVID19
3) Also Trump CDC being muzzled about the #SARSCoV2 Coronavirus being airborne...
4) And censoring CDC outbreak investigators after a meatpacking plant to name just another example.
5) All this despite Trump knowing it was worse than flu and airborne.
6) And Trump told Woodward he knew it affected young people too. Yet Trump continued to silence the CDC.

Update: El Paso now hiring morgue attendants for $27.20/hour. But job applicant must be strong enough to lift deceased bodies weighing 100-400 lbs. (45-180 kg). Better than using jail inmates at $2/hour to move #COVID19 deceased. But so sad and surreal. 😓governmentjobs.com/careers/elpaso… Image
2) This job posting likely in response to the outcry from this video last week of inmates moving the surge of deceased bodies for $2/hr into overflow morgues. Still chilling. They now have 10 mobile refrigerated morgues.
3) RATIONING CARE—El Paso has been so depleted by #COVID19 that hospitals soon could decide who gets care and who doesn’t. EP begging TX gov for national guard, but Governor Abbott blocking so far. texastribune.org/2020/11/18/el-…

2) This follows Senator Rick Scott earlier today. And Rudy Giuliani’s son, Andrew.
3) he first tested positive earlier in the week. He’s holed up in a cabin now. Hopefully not killing any deer or animals. cnn.com/2020/11/20/pol…

NO EPIDEMIOLOGISTS RISKING Thanksgiving dinner: I answered this NYTimes poll to professional @societyforepi epidemiologists— here is how 635 epidemiologists are spending Thanksgiving and the holidays. Vast majority just keeping to themselves. #COVID19 nytimes.com/2020/11/20/ups… Image
2) I think the minority having dinner outside household are doing it “outdoors”. There was a survey of how one would have dinner. And outdoor venue was a clear option. Not clear in this tabulation.
3) NYT makes it clear the 21% doing gatherings are doing it safely outside and with masks. I took the survey, so I know how it was asked—a lot of detailed questions how. They just collapsed it for simplicity.

BREAKING—wow—WHO just recommended **against** the use of @GileadSciences’s drug remdesivir in hospitalized #COVID19 patients, citing “there is currently no evidence that remdesivir improves survival or reduces need for ventilation in these patients”. 🧵
👉 who.int/news-room/feat… Image
2) “data from over 7000 patients across the 4 trials were considered.
The evidence suggested no important effect on mortality, need for mechanical ventilation, time to clinical improvement, and other patient-important outcomes.
The guideline development group...”
3) “recognized that more research is needed, especially to provide higher certainty of evidence for specific groups of patients. They supported continued enrollment in trials evaluating remdesivir.”
