Failing to combat COVID-19, Trump instead trash-talks Obama admin's response to H1N1.

Btw, the 15% cut to the CDC is still in the Trump administration's 2021 budget-proposal.

1. 3 of you

Have posted Trump hate twitter. What is the point on DU.

Many of us despise Twitter and Facebook. Why republish?

Not upset but simply asking why spread Trump hate?

2. To energize us and remind of us who the real enemy is? nt

I do not need to read his latest rant. I know what he is.

8. But yet, here you are, reading his rant and posting about it.

10. Fair enough - can understand the feeling

But I don't share it - it is ultimately an emotional response - logically i'm already dedicated to defeating trump, but my heart and desires fluctuate (as I suppose everybody's does (and to be clear it's not like a waver between wanting to see Trump out of office and not wanting him out office; rather i fluctuate between being very committed and somewhat committed)) so when I see what a shithead Trump is, it fires me up. But everybody is different.

5. Stats about H1N1 from CDC

From April 12, 2009 to April 10, 2010, CDC estimated there were 60.8 million cases (range: 43.3-89.3 million), 274,304 hospitalizations (range: 195,086-402,719), and 12,469 deaths (range: 8,868-18,306) in the United States due to the (H1N1)pdm09 virus.
Additionally, CDC estimated that 151,700-575,400 people worldwide died from (H1N1)pdm09 virus infection during the first year the virus circulated.** Globally, 80 percent of (H1N1)pdm09 virus-related deaths were estimated to have occurred in people younger than 65 years of age. This differs greatly from typical seasonal influenza epidemics, during which about 70 percent to 90 percent of deaths are estimated to occur in people 65 years and older.
