THE CDC ADOPTED A SMITHSONIAN METHOD TO TEST THE COVID-19 VIRUS - THAT NOW TAKES A COUPLE OF DAYS OR EVEN WEEKS - THE UNIVERSITY OF NEBRASKA MEDICAL CENTERS - HAS MANAGED TO RETURN A TEST IN 6 HOURS - WE ARE NOW MOVING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.










The Centers for Diseases Control
and Prevention - never took into account -
a pandemic -when thousands needed to be tested -
as part of their " Emergency Solution and Process "
continue - using its current Smithsonian system -
the testing process taking days if not weeks -
failing to admit early on it was not capable 
to test quickly - it failed in its mission -
more because the CDC leadership is still in denial.


One University in the United States months ago - got the necessary permission from the CDC and begun trials - after receiving positive sample from China and elsewhere - and has now just tested the COVID-19 virus - and can return the test 
within 6 hours.

The University of Nebraska Medical Center - took the early lead - specializing in testing kits and have made great strides.

In two months China will come out with a vaccine. Germany too has made strides - but here in the United States the Centers of Diseases Control and Prevention - experienced with a Smithsonian testing kit - failed. 

The kit has several components some were sent to be test the Coronavirus specimen - the other parts or elements - were held back. What was the CDC thinking - only the foolish would know.

Other private laboratories  are looking at the model - and may adopt the model - it is expensive - but it is worth saving lives.





All over the United States of America we have thousands of 
COVID-19 virus victims -waiting to be tested - and with all the talk - just the process of getting tested - has been convoluted.

China, South Korea, Germany have managed to do a better job than the United States. 

China is now helping Italy with equipment, masks and other paraphernalia needed to fight the COVID-19 virus. 

An element missing in the United States - we may be a Super Power when it comes to War and killing.

However when one is dealign with health and more a pandemic - we need - humility. Those that talk the talk and cannot walk the wall - will fall FLAT on their face.

We need more people like Dr Anthony S. Fauci - the Director of the National Institute of Health  - who always speaks Truth to Power.

Here is the United States one University started testing samples with permission from the CDC - months ago.

The University has just managed to return tests in 6 hours. 

These tests early on are promising - and what is important to note - American ingenuity is moving in the right direction.

Reminiscent of Dr Salk who invented the Polio vaccine - nothing is impossible - but as I said early on in this article - we have to be humble.

We are dealing with lives - our Elders more adversely impacted - and some dealing with this pandemic - as if it is a Joke.








Again and again we have witnessed -
Dr Anthony S. Fauci (79 years old)
the Director of National Institute of Health -
speak Truth to Power -
unlike the liar who is pompous - lives in the White House
and loves his two seconds of fame at the podium.
Lying comes naturally to him - as naturally as
shaking hands - and spreading the COVID-19 virus.






Dr Robert R. Redfield -
purports to be the Director of CDC -
when asked who is in charge and could be contacted -
if anyone who desperately needs to be contacted -
can be contacted - refused to pin-point who is the person -
he turned to Dr Anthony S. Fauci at the Congressional 
Hearing - Dr Fauci stunned everyone by speaking 
Truth to Power - read on ...........







Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz -
questioned Dr Robert R.  Redfield -
who refused to speak the Truth -
much like his boss who lives in the White House.


At the latest Congressional Hearing on the status and related issues - linked to the COVID-19 virus - Congress woman Debbie Wasserman Schultz - asked Dr Robert R. Redfield - the Director of the CDC - that she had received a letter from the frontline Registered Nurses.

She wanted to know who was in charge - and who was responsible to initiate the test as soon as possible. 

She hinted she felt Dr Robert R. Redfield - may be the person - to no avail - he refused to give a straight answer - Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz -   could not get an answer.

Today the private industry and the U.S. Government - brought all the united forces to deal with the situation at hand :

https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html

Many of the Registered Nurses and other staff - who were exposed to the COVID-19 virus and these mostly Registered Nurses need to be tested immediately and cannot not find away to get tested. 

The Nurses keep pleading and the longer they wait the more likely they are going to be tested positive and come closer to death.

This is a very serious issue - that needs immediate attention - more, on a war footing.

Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz -  persistently asked Dr Robert R. Redfield again and again the same question -  again and again Dr Robert R. Redfield did not want to answer the question.

At today's meeting in the Rose Garden - at the Rose Garden - missing was Dr Robert R. Redfield - he was missing in action - may be on his way out. He epitomizes the person in the White House when it come to lying - looking you in the eye - and lying. 

Finally he turned to Dr Anthony S. Fauci - who explained the system had failed.

Meaning the CDC system - was not set up to address individual requests - as is the case in other countries and nations.

Here in the United States - the CDC plays the dominant role - which consists of micro-managing the situation at hand.

To get the test you need permission - once the sample is taken - it has to be sent to the CDC - then the results are sent back - or may be some other paperwork - has not been attended to. The process in today's digital world is cumbersome - and defeats any purpose for quick action and solutions.








Dr Grant Colfax - 
has no vision - and absolutely no leadership -
we have some state of the art laboratories -
and more experts to test and produce medicines -
here in the Bay Area - but if one has NO vision -
it does not matter - beating around the bush.



We have had this problem in San Francisco - with some leading laboratories and experts capable of producing vaccines, medicines, and cures.

San Francisco has not addressed a Pandemic with the fine points in mind. It lacks stellar and astute leadership - which is NOT found with Mayor London Breed who has NO experience and uneducated on pertinent and salient factors.

Drs Grant Colfax and side-kick Tomas Aragon have No experience addressing  a world wide pandemic such as the fast spreading COVID-19 virus.

Imagine we did not hear a word - about the process - Not from Governor Gavin Newsom, nor Mayor London Breed, for sure not from Mary Ellen Carroll - the Executive Director of SF Emergency Services - Pathetic.

We did not hear from Drs Grant Colfax and less from Tomas Aragon - about the process - and the turnaround of a test - linked to any COVID-19 virus - testing.








The COVID-19 virus 
has been playing havoc with lives 
all over the world - and will be here in the United States.




Right now we have some who think - the COVID-19 virus will pass away - without we taking - extra ordinary precautions.

"Community Spread " is rampant in San Francisco - and our Mayor and her team - are all over the place - talking from both sides of their mouth.

We can and must test as many people - from the 840,000 that is our San Francisco - population.

We must test our Elders who now do not know who are left in the dark - not knowing whom to contact - and what the process entails.

We must seek to have quick results  " from the tests " - the minimum time one day.

It is already possible to return tests - in 6 hours - this is already in play.

We know and have empirical data - announced by the Main Media - in some laboratories in the United States - be it NOT the Bay Area - tested conducted linked to COVID-19 virus - have taken less than 6 hours - and have been helpful in given some solace to the victims - who have been tested.

At the SF General Hospital we have nurses and others who are NOT trained to handle COVID-19 virus. It has been months now - and nothing much has been done - except kick the can down the street.

Mayor London Breed should be ashamed of herself - she talks too much - too much talk and NO  - walk.

Moreover, most the Nurses  - at the SF General Hospital - have no training but more importantly have NO safety clothing - including masks - to handle their dangerous work - and are constantly put in harms way.

We cannot and should not treat our Registered Nurses and others - health workers - on the frontlines - doing their job - with disdain.

Most of the Registered Nurses, Doctors, frontline health workers - are over-worked and under paid - and to make matter worse - 
" travel nurses " and " per diem nurses " - are hired to tide over the existing problems - at the SF General Hospital.

Many Registered nurses and other health staff - are traumatized and this situation persisted - more the COVID-19 virus - came to the scene and is now a pandemic.





Flattening the Curve -
is not easy - if 20% percent of our population is affected -
the 100,000 beds we have in hospitals nationwide - 
which today have already  thousands of beds - 40% and more -
taken with flu, respiratory diseases, heart ailments -
leaving most hospitals in dire straits -
San Francisco cannot deal with 500 cases 
of COVID-19 virus cases tested positive -
Time will Tell.



There was an extraordinary meeting at the White House gardens - the leading partners from the Private Industry and the Government Officials - they stood shoulder to shoulder - to address COVID-19 virus.

https:ncov2019.live

We now see some attempt made to remove old rules and specification -  that hindered progress - Smithsonian - we now are free to make the dire changes -  to the old system.

We are now living in times - never seen before - we have set a precedence - never seen before Google, CVS, Walgreens, Walmart, Roche Pharmaceuticals, other leading testing corporations - America has always come together - in times of need.

This pandemic is more about the people - the citizens of the United States. 

It is not about politics - which is what some politicians want to make - we have the Private Industry - that is geared up to deliver - Google taking the lead.

This pandemic has caused havoc to many families - more our Elders - God bless our Elders - they deserve the best.

The news of this unique meeting of the minds - determined to serve and bring change - has positively affected the Stocks and Shares - which will spur the economy - and mostly importantly the savings of those who cannot afford to lose money - in this dire times.

San Francisco must now step up - working with our leading experts in our local laboratories - here in San Francisco and the the Bay Area. 

Gene-tech and others have put us on the world map - the hurdles brought about by the Smithsonian - Centers of Diseases Control and Prevention.

The hurdles have been removed - and we can now tackle the situation at hand - on a War Footing - and having worked for the military.

I feel very comfortable - we as a Nation can make - tremendous progress - our tenacity and fortitude in these great nation - second to none.

God Bless America - I woke up today with a heavy heart.

I  now feel reassured that we can save lives - bring about change in our living and breathing environment - bring succor to our Elders - and to those that most need help.

Even life counts - and is help give life - we commit ourselves - to the best we have to offer - more when we love, serve and are humble. Aho.
