So sorry that you have such poor leadership, so sorry for you all and your families.

Typical Americans, dont care till it affects them personally..

I’m certainly concerned about catching it, and take precautions. Hicksville, Nassau County, Long Island New York. But then I speak to the local cashiers and stuff, and they say they know of no one that has caught it. I don’t come in contact with anyone that has caught it. Does anybody have any stories of how they caught it and where they’re located?

The 1st thought process of idiots the virus is not real😡😡😡😡

Respectfully, reported by…the same people that hammer home the lib-left-dem message every, freaking day. Just sayin’ but what I am not saying is that there is not a disease and that there are not people who have gotten sick or died. From there, it’s pot luck; a covered dish brought by…well, you know who. Cue suspense music

My wife who is Thai just told me and showed me that the “World Health Organization” just asked Thailand how to
achieve what they have with the coronavirus issues. I would like to applaud them. America has lost 495 people
per million. Thailand has lost .8 per million. or America has lost 164,094 as of now and Thailand has lost 58.
Who is taking care of who?
IF YOU ARE WONDERING, See how we are doing compared to the rest of the world, it’s sickening if you are from the
U.S. The rest of the world is serious!

Great show, real exchange of information! And science lady, that was SO CLEAR, best description I’ve heard of science – ever! We ALL NEED TO BE EDUCATED on LITERALLY THE DEFINITION OF WHAT SCIENCE IS & and WHAT IT DOES! And then, show us how you’re applying it to your work on saving our lives! Do THAT right, then turn it over to the CLIMATE SCIENTISTS! Bring on those folks who are on the front lines suffering from the impact of climate change, like those covid survivors! Greta Thunberg knows who they are – she’s giving them some of her awards monies! Let’s hear from them – and then the scientists can come in and share their ongoing knowledge, get us in THAT loop – to stay alive as we hear from the vanguard where we’re heading! Ps. Beautiful Interviewer, journalist lady, your cleavage is distracting… Consider ‘tabla rasa’, how would that reflect in garb? And though it’s scary times… so much Unknown, Uncertainty, let’s all support and respect the scientists!

Louise McLoughlin: I really enjoyed hearing the stories from your guests. Through your questions, tone of voice, and responses was a clear demonstration of your ability to empathize. It was an open path for learning without any petty distractions. Thank You
