CV15.1. Chris Christie Called out for Seeking Covid Treatment after Cavalier Remarks, Behavior. Accepting the possibility of one’s own death is a bit different, and I personally don’t believe that a leader should be able to dismiss responsibility for deaths that their choices lead to, even if there were no alternative.
-A. There is also the irony about Christie and Kaci Hickox, with the major difference that then politics was to make Ebola out as a highly infectious disease when it wasn’t, while CV was politicized to not be infectious with only minor consequences.

Upon the death from flu of one German immigrant to America his widow and son received a sum of money. They invested it in property, and today the immigrant’s grandson is a property magnate purportedly worth billions. His name is Donald Trump.
CV20. Communication: Covid-19 Pandemic Highlights the Need for Teaching Health Communication to Public Health Students. Despite being a core public health competency, not all public health science students receive training in these skills. The media response to the COVID-9 pandemic reveals a fundamental misunderstanding by the general public about the scientific process and cultivates a narrative that too often places blame on individuals for structural inequities. An influx of research without audience appropriate interpretations, coupled with a lack of representation in the news media, threatens to erode trust in science. To address these challenges, schools and programs of public health might reflect on their curricula and consider placing a greater emphasis on health communication. CV27.

CV26. Environment, One Health: As Cold Weather Arrives, U.S. States See Record Increases in Covid-19 Cases. The correlation of illness and season/ weather has been noted for millennia. The explanations for this were often times wrong but now the reasons for the correlation are clearer, if still not complete. Ironical that those who are in denial (1st stage of grief) and angry (2nd stage of grief), about CV, protective measures and environmental change (specifically air quality and climate) are now the most vulnerable to the CV Pandemic, and are the ones driving the parademic that exacerbates CV which will infect them.

CV27. Learning: Trump Says He 'Learned a Lot' about Coronavirus During Treatment: 'This Is the Real School'. If Trump Has Learned Anything from Getting Covid-19, He’s Not Showing It. There's Nothing to Learn from Trump's Coronavirus Infection. So far learning does not seem to have occurred. CV infections go up, some people take protective CV01 measures others do not, CV infections go down, protective measures loosened and CV goes up, infections continue to go up and there are more loosening of protective measures.
