2) juiciest quote:

"You f*cking moron. We’ll all be dead by June.” ~Jared Kushner. 

As #COVID19 slammed US in early spring, Jared Kushner was furious to learn the US order of millions of masks wouldn't arrive til June 2020… amzn.to/3zNeuJC
3) Also crazy… Trump wanted to detail Americans at Gitmo!
4) what a crazy book.

“Nightmare Scenario: Inside the Trump Administration's Response to the Pandemic That Changed History”

Delta up 4x in % in New York City—the #DeltaVariant has spiked to 22.7% of all #COVID19 cases in latest @nycHealthy data, up from only 5.6% the week prior. While cases low, 4x ⬆️ is an worrisome % increase, outpacing US overall growth. Masks recommended.🧵

2) do not be deceived by low case numbers while #DeltaVariant is growing in the underbelly of low cases. We have seen what happens elsewhere. Even in heavily vaccinated UK and Israel, they still got #DeltaVariant outbreaks.
3) Notice how #DeltaVariant displaced other variants quickly … it will definitely happen in NYC too.

Sydney 🇦🇺 has now gone into lockdown—anyone who lives or worked in 4 areas of Sydney now must stay home. NSW reports it’s largest epidemic of pandemic - another 22 new cases - to now 70. Fleeting exposure of just “seconds” led to many #DeltaVariant cases. news.com.au/world/coronavi…
2) How the hell did Sydney lose control? Because of the #DeltaVariant and the lack of fast vaccine rollout. But the Delta strain is incredibly contagious and fast — mere seconds of fleeting exposure is all it needs to transmit — watch ⬇️ and see thread 🧵
3) One transmission case was also caught on security camera. “They did not come into contact” at all.

Doctors gave Trump a “dizzying array of emergency medicines” to save his life, from Remdesivir to monoclonal antibodies to dexamethasone, after his blood O2 dropped to 93%, dipping to 80% at one point. They hoped he get serious about #COVID19–he did not.🧵

2) “When (FDA chief) Hahn later learned the [MAB request] was on behalf of the president, he was stunned. For God’s sake, it’s the president who’s sick, and you want us to bend the rules? Trump was in the highest-risk category— at 74, he rarely exercised and medically obese.”
3) “Trump’s brush with severe illness and the prospect of death caught the White House so unprepared that they had not even briefed Vice President Mike Pence’s team on a plan to swear him in if Trump became incapacitated.”
