    1. @Solstice of Snow BUT you have to remember WHO knew how BAD this virus was!! You can’t blame Pelosi or others that were not privy to classify briefings!! trump put a travel ban on China ONLY when he should have also put one on Europe & other places! Also IF he was SO concern about Americans overseas being able to get back, two things contradict that. 1) Why didn’t he put them in quarantine like other countries have done?!? 2) Why didn’t he also let the American Princess cruise passenger get back home when they were literally in US waters?!? Also, Nancy Pelosi went to Chinatown so that there wouldn’t be retaliation against Asian Americans because of trump’s rants about how bad Chinese were!!

    2. @adam therolf they agree to one and then she changes her mind; maybe if you watched C-SPAN instead of just being spoon fed by CNN you could watch all her press conferences and the debates in the house.

    3. @Alfred Basurto the U.S. is a Constitutional Republic; the laws and constitution designed to restrain the tyranny of the majority. How can someone as ignorant as you be allowed to vote?

  1. A brave, noble and sincere doctor who has every right to be heard. There would only be sinister reasons for not wanting his message to be heard.

    1. @John Coleman : I really don’t know whether to feel sorry for people like karo travis or just ignore “it”. To my surprise, there are so many more like that who are stuck on stupid, and no matter how many times they are presented with factual information to help them make informed decisions, they prefer the lies. So sad😏

    2. @karo travis …. Your cult leader is leading you to the same place Jim Jones led his followers ‼️🤦🏻‍♂️

    1. @CHOSEN ONE AMERUKAN INDIAN “In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act”.

    2. _Getting_ ridiculous? We are so far past the point of ridiculousness that the space between us and that point expands faster than the speed of light, so we can never see it again. 😛

      Hopefully sanity will rapidly make a comeback in a few weeks once certain elements have been kicked to the curb.

  2. Stay strong Dr. Gilman, and thank you for your service during this time of a national crisis. We are living in a period that defies logic.

    1. People it is not the Republicans or the democrats it is everyone that thinks they run this country they are all fools that all corrupt we Americans need to get rid of them all

    2. @B. T. Ohh little child when you move out on your own you will realize what matters and you will know Biden is a MORON with bad plans and Dementia! They say a young Republican has no empathy but a old Democrat has no brain!

    3. @Ron Dean – feel free to just fend for yourself with no help or much interest shown by the state…
      I hear ventilators are quite easy to build, get cracking you may need one…

    1. @Huib Rijntjes President Elect Biden will be sworn in as President of the United States of America about noon on January 20, 2021.

    2. @B B you’re speaking about Trumps cult, he lies thru his teeth everyday, doesn’t believe in scientists, climate change, and his members take in every single lie as facts. 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪

  3. Another hero on the front-lines giving us a dose of brutal truth. Shame on those who tried to stifle him! Cindy in NC

    1. @susana brown Clown! Try to find out hospital ICU usage stats, the CDC last updated theirs in July! It’s almost impossible to find the numbers, but we’ll sure find out in the next few weeks.

    2. @susana brown Telling the truth has done a lot of good throughout history in cases like this. The truth is not a waste of time.

    3. @Timothy Price Sir, I repeat. We all know employers give us employment under certain conditions. For example, if you get employed by the US State Department you are not allowed to disclose online your opinion regarding how business is handle by your employer. Take it or leave it.

    1. Swamp Yankee oh great. Just what we need. One of too many Trumpies still asleep and dreaming. Not sure if one can be taken seriously if one can’t spell vaccine.

    2. Swamp Yankee Hey! We can’t take credit for spreading hate and lies. That’s Trumps specialty. He has a PHD in that. No one can touch him! 😂😂😂😂

    1. Heroes don’t all wear capes or enlist and bear weapons fighting foreign ‘threats’, though those who do ARE true heroes. He is on OUR frontlines fighting a dangerous domestic threat and risking his life doing so. Many thanks and gratitude to him and those like him.

  4. The wrong people are getting fired. It’s people like this man we all need right now. Thank you to him and others like him for speaking out.

    1. You said it better than I!! Thank you! He seems like such a kind man! This makes me so sad. I hope that he does better than he could have ever imagined!

    2. @Belladonnas Art of Healing Are you serious? Many people suffer from having to live with a stutter, it has zero to do with “lying”. You know NOTHING about this doctor but because he has a stutter he’s a lier? What an ignorant thing to say.

    3. @Belladonnas Art of Healing how ridiculous! Stuttering is not about lying. Can you not even begin to understand the incredible pressure he has been under!?

    1. @Huib Rijntjes That’s all fine and good. Hopefully you’re not going to be hypocritical here in a month when it’s president Biden.

    2. @Huib Rijntjes The fact that you would say such a wrongful and erroneous thing despite the knowledge that Trump is responsible for this catastrophe in the US makes you nothing short of a monster.

  5. Leave it to hospital stinking administrators most of who get payed gross amounts of money they don’t earn.🤨👎

    1. @Dillon McCluskey look at what the admin did in some hospitals with cares act funding. Administration works as n their fat salaries. Non stop!!🤔👎

    2. @Maestro Finchitti oh yeah that’s the problem, it’s not trump’s dereliction, no it’s the salaries of hospital administrators…

  6. I love this guy. HIPAA is masking the severity of this disease and people aren’t seeing just how bad this is.
