Beats out a truly CRAPPY bunch: Buchanan (the only bachelor, well there were a few "lie-ins with him), Andrew Johnson, Tricky Dick, Warren G. Harding, Benjamin Harrison, Franklin Pierce, and a few others in between...

Story about the best prepared hospital in the U.S., UNMC

"we're on a catastropic path"......

"The center has the nation’s only federal quarantine facility and its largest biocontainment unit, which cared for airlifted Ebola patients in 2014. The people on staff had detailed pandemic plans. They ran drills. There’s a reason many of the Americans who were airlifted from the Diamond Princess cruise ship in February were sent to UNMC...."

......"UNMC is now fuller with COVID-19 patients—and patients, full stop—than it has ever been. We’re watching a system breaking in front of us and we’re helpless to stop it.”

"To hear such talk from someone at UNMC, the best-prepared of America’s hospitals, should shake the entire nation...."

"People need to know that “the assumption we will always have a hospital bed for them is a false one.......What makes this “nightmare” worse, “is that it was preventable.”

Pure Arkansas Dung.

The only way to prevent any part of this mess in retrospect would have been that if China were to honest with the world 3 months earlier and for the USA to stop all international flights into our country sooner. The rest of the world did not find this preventable because they are proof positive as the world struggles. There are people here on this forum who have had family members who did not make it. And realize that they were very vulnerable because of lifestyle choices that were in fact very preventable. The whole premise that society can prevent people from being destructive to themselves is ludicrous. You should find the village that it takes and go to it.

The US has:
4% of the world's population
21% of the COVID cases, and
18.5% of the COVID deaths.

And you don't see a problem with the way that Dumpy and his merry band of doofuses handled the COVID pandemic?

You can't be helped then, Fast.

Dumpy isn't that much worse than Andrew Johnson is he?

These United States. . . . . . .

Eats too much.
Eats way too many bad foods.
Drinks way too much alcohol.
Smokes way too much tobacco and marijuana.

The almost forgotten, always misunderstood, all-consuming sin of gluttony

Oh yes, I'm going to believe you .....

.......over the infectious-disease specialist who directs the hospital’s COVID-19 team, the head of that hospital’s emergency-preparedness program, the infectious-disease and critical-care physician, and the critical-care doctor ----- who work in America's best prepared hospital, and who were quoted directly in the article.

You just look at the rest of the world, nothing has slowed down this virus. You are just a run of the mill partisan.

You mean Cuomo and Newsom and Murphy and Whitmer right? They were in charge. What did they do wrong? Hell, Cuomo committed murder and got an Emmy for it.

Ever notice the deranged left on here always quote from “authority” without ever giving thought to whether what is being said and done is correct and plausible.
