April 12, 2020 "Why don't we let it flood the country?" This was the question that, according to informed sources quoted today by the Washington Post, the question that Donald Trump asked Anthony Fauci during a meeting of the White House task force against coronavirus last month. According to sources, the president then asked the immunologist questions about why the herd immunity theory was rejected."Mr. President, many people would die," replied the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases who, sources said, had not initially understood what the president intended by saying to let the virus "flood" the country, but then he would be alarmed by these words.
The Post also reveals that the six doctors and scientists participating in the task force - in addition to Fauci, Debotah Birx, who leads the White House response, surgeon general Jerome Adams, FDA commissioner Stephen Hahn and CDC director Robert Redfield , have started holding separate meetings to discuss medical and public health issues. This would have happened because scientists were increasingly frustrated with "voodoos", as the newspaper defines the treatments proposed by political officials and by Trump himself, such as anti-malaria drugs, not recognized scientifically valid, proposed during the extended meetings.
