I want some of these people in the Donnie Short Fingers administration charged with negligent homicide.
--------------------------------------------------
A whistleblower at the Department of Health and Human Services is seeking federal protection after complaining that more than a dozen workers who received the first Americans evacuated from Wuhan, China, lacked proper training or protective gear for coronavirus infection control.
"We are hopeful that Congress and the OSC will investigate this case in a timely and comprehensive manner," Ari Wilkenfeld, a lawyer for the whistleblower, told CNN. "This matter concerns HHS's response to the coronavirus, and its failure to protect its employees and potentially the public. The retaliatory efforts to intimidate and silence our client must be opposed."

(102,291 posts)would normally be dealing with children ripped from their parent's arms at the border dispatched sans training and protective equipment to meet the original WUHAN evacuees. It is criminal, but this is not the fault of CDC.
CDC falls within HHS, as does FDA, Medicare and Medicaid Services and several other agencies--but this is coming from HHS Director--a political appointed cabinet member, Alex Azar.

(6,486 posts)It's seems strange to me that no one seems to notice that the first "community transfer" (don't remember if that's the exact term they use--means got it without any known contact/exposure) is in the same county where the dumbfucks sent unprotected, untrained people to have unprotected contact with infected people and then had them go out into the community, staying in hotels, eating in restaurants, maybe going to tourist spots or who knows what. I hope somebody is checking for correlations between those people's movements and the new infected person's activities. But someone in the cult is probably forbidding that kind of check.
Travis Air Force Base, where the returned infected people were, is in Fairfield, CA. Vacaville, CA, where the newly infected person first went to the hospital, is ten miles from Fairfield, right up I-80.

(61,695 posts)Did they hire nursing grads with only a little clinical experience? Or office workers with laptops to take down data and make assignments? And why weren't they trained? Who is responsible for skipping that step?
