Dr. Vin Gupta: ‘There Is No School Reopening Strategy’ | The Last Word | MSNBC

Dr. Vin Gupta tells Lawrence O’Donnell that he’s “astonished” that governors in states with rising coronavirus cases are moving ahead with plans to reopen schools in the fall without a national strategy from the Trump administration to open safely with resources and testing: “We don’t have enough PPE stores for health care workers… much less teachers.” Aired on 7/22/2020.

  1. What happens after all this? We can not expect any other country to look to us for leadership. They can never trust what we say if the next President can go back on our word. And russia… the only logical step, as much as it pains me to say is full war on Putin.

    1. @David Gainey hey fuckass=you’re also part of the slaughter. pathetic words from a deadman.Covy,you know what to do…

    1. Schools didn’t close during the last pandemic….the one that actually affected children. Translation: you are a imbecile.

    2. Neither do most of the MSNBC and CNN anchors’ children…you are very easy to fool, aren’t you?

    1. He’s not the only one gettngi furious. The whole world is fed up with America and its incompetent, lying, deceiving dramas. It makes the Chinese look like angels in comparison. America the biggest failure in the world. Third world countries are streets ahead.

  2. 🤷🏼‍♀️yeah, that is 45s coronavirus strategy. lie deny ignore mislead distract seems to be working so far 😪 hes still Americas racist president

    1. they obviously don’t care. thats ok. they’ll never be able to walk the street once this is all over.

    2. What political gains will Trump reap when most children are back home before the election and after schools had to close due to insufficient healthy teachers?

    3. Schools didn’t close during the last pandemic….the one that actually affected children. Translation: you are a imbecile.

  3. Duh, there’s no any kind of strategy except, freak out and try to figure out how to stop hemorrhaging support, which is also failing.

    Try the fear and law and order approach? Not a good climate for that but, what have we got to lose?

    Where have we heard that?

  4. Donald Trump has only one plan: Sacrifice the American at the alter of his political fortunes and ambitions.

  5. That’s gonna be alot of money for school budget… Kids gonna need alot of PPE and wipes for everything they touch

  6. Donald Trump released guidelines that his own task force created to safely reopen the country, and that lasted MAYBE 7-10 days before he threw all caution to the wind and started badgering, bullying, shaming, etc., governors to IGNORE TASK FORCE PROTOCOLS AND JUST EFFING OPEN ALREADY – this was back in early May. THAT WAS AN UNMITIGATED DISASTER WHICH STARTED A WHOLE NEW PART B OF THE FIRST WAVE!!

    Donald Trump wants SCOTUS to completely abolish the ACA, but he has NOTHING TO REPLACE IT WITH!! Donald Trump has now decided he wants ‘brick and mortar’ school openings, but AGAIN – NO PLAN!!

    A reporter asked if he was worried about Baron or his grandkids returning to school, and he said no, BUT his grandkids and Baron DON’T ATTEND PUBLIC SCHOOLS LIKE OUR CHILDREN DO!!

    After all the lies, misinformation, and now THREATS to school funding, and after the ABSOLUTE, COMPLETE, AND TOTAL DISASTER THAT LED TO MORE DEATHS AND MORE INFECTIONS – DOES HE REALLY THINK ANYONE WITH HALF A BRAIN TRUSTS HIM WITH OUR CHILDREN??

  7. Even though NEW covid 19 death toll has reached ONE THOUSAND deaths in just one day. While at the same time, the NEW covid 19 infections one day total has reached *77 THOUSAND*

    * After the re-opening covid 19 is now infecting 1 in 3 children*
    *Before the re-opening 1 in 200-/+ children were becoming infected*

    With that information in mind. What would any logicality thinking parents conclude???
    1) *it IS safe to send your children back to school*

    2) *It IS safe to send your children into an enclosed environment*
    (an environment in which your children will be *FOR AT LEAST 4 HOURS every day*

    3) *if your children happens to become infected with covid 19 and dies* …
    you can find comfort in the following…
    At the time Covid 19 is infecting and killing more people than it ever did…

    *It was you that sent your children back to school*

    *You are the one that played Russian Roulette with the lives of your own children*

    The really ironic part is;…
    *Nobody forced to play Russian roulette with your children’s lives*

    *You did it WILLINGLY*

    You will always know
    *Sending your children back to school (while covid is infecting and killing more people than ever before) was the logical, smart, well thought-out thing to do*

    *A LIFE, ONCE GONE, CAN NEVER BE RETURNED*

  11. None of us real conservatives sent our kids to your schools to begin with. We educate them at home, don’t need your indoctrination and propaganda. Taught my kids history from actual law books.

  12. Close the schools till 2021. Use the money saved towards vaccine development and distribution
