Officials at the Department of Health and Human Services sent more than a dozen workers to receive the first Americans evacuated from Wuhan, China, the epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak, without proper training for infection control or appropriate protective gear, according to a whistleblower complaint.

The workers did not show symptoms of infection and were not tested for the virus, according to lawyers for the whistleblower, who is a senior HHS official based in Washington who oversees workers at the Administration for Children and Families, a unit within HHS.

The whistleblower is seeking federal protection because she alleges she was unfairly and improperly reassigned after raising concerns about the safety of these workers to HHS officials, including those within the office of Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar. She was told Feb. 19 that if she does not accept the new position in 15 days, which is March 5, she would be terminated.

3. Maybe, but clueless idiots and authoritarian followers are NORMAL.

It's always been the job of people capable of doing better to protect and advance society. And those have always been a minority.

Malignant weaponization of social media is growing the numbers of temporary, not just permanent, idiots. The latter need to catch up to reality. Finally!

Start by killing off ALL Putin's candidates.
