  1. I’m having a hard time understanding why this man is still talking. He has said nothing true. freaking lap dog.

    1. @clay pittman How-do Mr. Pittman. Your blind loyalty to a serial liar and repeat adulterer is showing…

    2. And 3.5 months we tested 10 million people out of 325 million people.. when does he think he can get this hemoglobin antibody Supply to 325 million people.. more bulshit… how about pointing Us in the direction to buy N95 mask? and where they’re available? I have run out of mask that I bought back in January…

  2. Azar as such a dunce he didn’t even realize they was being asked about statements that Trump made…😂😂😂

    1. @Ian Dalziel Thanks, now I need to clean my monitor, as I cough out beer.
      Stay healthy.
      From Canada.

    2. Well yes we have done more test than anyone. And we’re not doing worse than England, Spain, France, or Italy. Don’t believe me
      UK: :35,000 deaths/65 million people
      America:90,000 deaths/330 million people
      And nobody blames their leaders. It’s 10000% China’s fault you fucking morons. Let’s just wait 5-10 years from now and then blame the next president for the next pandemic. Why are you people so dumb????

  3. Azar just lied
    (10million/326million)*100= 3.06%
    Not even close to 10%
    Do they really think we can’t do math?

  4. Why oh why doesn’t make retort with the truth that they aren’t testing more than any other country ????!,,

  5. You’ve had deaths due to lack of ppe, yet Jane doesn’t retort with that to the no ventilator shortage response

    1. Right on sister & finally they wouldn’t send their children to school in the fall either, LOL 😆

  6. The US has less than 4% of the World’s population, but has 33% of the World’s Covid-19 cases & 28% of deaths due to coronavirus!

    1. @Hereturbie there are reports that Azar did try to tell tRump in Jan, but was rebuked, so he pulled back, as retaining his job was more important to him than saving lives of citizens. Implementation of an Alex Azar Scale for human timidity seems appropriate!

    2. And 3.5 months we tested 10 million people out of 325 million people.. when does he think he can get this hemoglobin antibody Supply to 325 million people.. more bulshit… how about pointing Us in the direction to buy N95 mask? and where they’re available?

    3. @Andy, sadly, I disagree that “a lot of them are decent people”. I used to live in their world. They reject compassion, education, empathy, engagement, inquiry, love, and so much more. They seek devotion, obedience, and servitude. For anyone that doesn’t recognize what I am describing, these characteristics typify tRump supporters, or as I label them: trumpturds! They are the scourge of our modern society and are nonredeemable!

    4. @Owen Michaels-Hardy I agree with your later comments, but since I have not lived in the US I cannot attest to the former…for better or worse. Some of my work colleagues from the US are nice, decent and educated people, but I’m sure they’re others who are not.
      What blows my mind is how a lot of Americans are unable to distinguish between public health imperatives and individual freedoms infringement. But that goes to the essence of your comments, so I’m sure you are not surprised, sadly.

  7. When is our government going address these disparities that have existed throughout our history?

  8. As Agent Orange said: “It’s a Democrat hoax!” And Azar is happy to look at deaths per capita but not testing per capita. And New York has improved because of Governor Cuomo not him or Agent Orange.

    1. Hahah Cuomo did nothing right you rested. He literally killed thousands of people by sending infected people to nursing homes and not on the medical ships trump wanted to send because it would make trump loon good. You’re such a sicko you’d rather have more deaths and trump looks bad and lose the election than trump get rid of this and win the election ahaha.

  9. Does anyone trust what officials from this administration promises say! I’m over being gaslighted. We’re not stupid!!

    1. Well yes we have done more test than anyone. And we’re not doing worse than England, Spain, France, or Italy. Don’t believe me
      UK: :35,000 deaths/65 million people
      America:90,000 deaths/330 million people
      And nobody blames their leaders. It’s 10000% China’s fault you fucking morons. Let’s just wait 5-10 years from now and then blame the next president for the next pandemic. Why are you people so dumb????

    2. @K R the writers of south park, know their trade
      not to sure on how the portray the canuck though
      theres not an upper and lower portion to our heads, divided by the mouth
      why on average, we look just like ‘murikans, just not as obese…just sayin

    3. @jeff the u.s.a. has trailed almost every other country in doing C-19 tests and has 3X more deaths than canada per 100,000 people.

    4. @dan mac Lol! Blame Canada! Yeah, we ‘murikans got the obesity thing down. South Park is always intelligent commentary on today’s society. Could use a new season right about now.

    1. It is a “fat people” and Native American” disease. Also “old people disease.” Everyone else is just fine? sick

    2. Azar was a drug lobbyist when trump hired him, he has no training or experience for the job, like most trump employees.

    3. Any psychologist and probably most psychiatrists would look at how this guy talks and be like… Yeah… Sociopath. 🤷🏻‍♂️

  10. Jake Tapper’s expression is priceless! As Azar drones on about how great, how “historic” the administration’s response has been, Tapper looks like a stern dad listening with profound disappointment while his child tells one bald-faced lie after another.

  11. Will anchors and reports ever get prepared well with data that can refute claims in real time instead of allowing the lies slide every single time?

    1. @efs 1066 Here’s an article: www nypost com/2020/05/15/coronavirus-disproportionately-affects-obese-patients-data

    2. Don’t get me wrong I am voting for Biden.. but he is correct per capita the u.s. is like 7th in the world with coronavirus deaths… and he is correct on Obesity and diabetes and heart disease in the US this is a sick Nation.. and it is financially sick which causes bad eating habits…

  12. Azar says we have more underlying conditions causing more deaths.
    Azar also says we have the best health care system in the world. And we’re the richest..
    So Which one is it?

  13. I can’t believe that these fools want to put out kids at risk when it’s unnecessary.
