[Lex Computer & Tech Group/LCTG] Covid symptoms in speech

[Stephen Quatrano]

I hope you don’t mind me sending this to the group. I’ve never posted here before.  I don’t mean to be political.  I personally think that this is a matter of science.  They made it political by abandoning positions supported by evidence.  Not my problem.

I’ll let the article speak for itself.

From the NYTimes, 10/28/2020:  How America Helped Defeat the Coronavirus*

*Just not in the United States.

Full disclosure:  One of my closest friends is head of Quarantine and Global Migration Division at CDC.  The news on how CDC has “failed" us just makes me alternate between rage and despair.

I appreciate the dialogue on this thread.
