  • In this UCSF Department of Medicine Covid-19 Medical Grand Rounds, we begin with an update on the pandemic from UCSF epidemiologist George Rutherford, with a particular focus on the Delta variant, which began in India and is both more infectious and partly vaccine resistant. It has now become the dominant virus in the UK, and threatens to do the same in the U.S.
    The bulk of the session will be an interview with Andy Slavitt, who recently left his role as White House senior advisor on Covid-19 and whose book, “Preventable: The Inside Story of How Leadership Failures, Politics, and Selfishness Doomed the U.S. Coronavirus Response,” was published this week. Slavitt will reflect on the successes and failures of the past 18 months, describe the inside story of how the Biden team approached the vaccine rollout, and discuss how the pandemic has changed the healthcare system forever. The session is moderated by UCSF Department of Medicine Chair Bob Wachter.

      Well... If they wear those MAGA Hats, the Blood won't be as visible when their heads explode from watching this (to whom it applies). I'll be paying attention to South Korea 1st going into the next Pandemic.. along with the UC System and Vincent Racaniello/Columbia University. The next "killer virus" will probably originate in South America thanks to wholesale deforestation of the Amazon. Nice goin' Jair!!!
      Now.. Why South Korea? S.KOR pays the USA $800,000,000 yearly to maintain a presence of 25,000 Military personnel (oh.. the USA and S.KOR "talk"). S.Kor has one of top 3 or 4 Medical Communities as a Nation. 2015: S.Kor put down a MERS-COV outbreak caused by a Man traveling in the Middle East with fewer than 50 Korean deaths and the Virus never left their shores. To date: S.Kor has 2,012 COV19 Deaths.. So.. If South Korea were the same size as the USA (or at scale) they would have only suffered 12,770 Deaths.
      Forget about China.. I can't be convinced that South Korea didn't try to warn the Orange "Know it All" that this was a serious problem. Mr. Slavitt outlined the problems with going public against Trump. Greg Popovich for President/ So much more qualified to deal with Eastern Bloc espionage than Donald Trump is at stealing/lying/being a rat of a human being.

      The people who are not vaccinated now do not want it. You cannot force people to get the vaccination. I was vaccinated four months ago and it was a personal choice. If people don’t want the vaccine, fine but if you do get COVID it’s on you Let’s now investigate the true origins of Covid to make sure this never happens again

    Israel C19 is on the rise due to Delta strain and quarantine measures are pending. However, C19 numbers in Delhi and a few Indian states where cases dropped by 97% due to ivermectin still remain at the same level, though health authorities removed Ivm from home kits. Apparently, people are still using it regardless. It could change if their health authorities threaten people and/or make IVM unavailable to ‘please’ WHO but it will always be a strikingly convincing proof that Ivm prophylaxis and early treatment is the only hope to bring our lives back to normal.

    We had both a novel dangerous medical and novel dangerous economic crisis, both without ready responses in times of high uncertainty and danger. Not acknowledging both does not fully report the constraints and dangers we faced. To develop nonpartisan solutions for next time, we might at least correctly state the problem.
    Even today the medical experts do not acknowledge the 1929-like economic crisis the country faced in March 2020, even as we faced a 1918- like pandemic. We needed to manage both. This discussion today still does not even acknowledge that duo-dilemna.

    Good information, I appreciate the comprehensive update. Great having Andy Slavitt on as well, but you lost me at 41:00 as the discussion digressed once again into: "what to do with the uneducated population that remain unvaccinated?" That whole discussion is loathsome to me and lacks empathy, something this panel seems to excel at.

I had already spent 4 months in South America, but their incidence did not spike until I left. If I weren’t going to return there, I would not have gotten the vaccine.

    Thank you for this report. Can we discuss the myocarditis cases? Let's presume that the 236 figure in the right column is incorrect and put it back down to 226 cases that meet the CDC definition. 180 people made a full recovery. 15 remain hospitalized. 180 + 15 = 195 subtract that from the 226 and that leaves 31 remaining cases unaccounted for. What happened to them? They didn't recover but they're not in the hospital. Are there deaths? If so, how many? Are any permanently disabled? How many cases? What is the current outcome and then prognosis for these individuals? What are the data? Please, also, can you state what meets the CDC definition of a true case of myocarditis? If the other cases that were reported as myocarditis don't meet that threshold, are those cases now considered "yet to be determined" adverse reactions? That's quite a few that are getting removed. Thank you, in advance. It's important that we understand these definitions and processes.

      As per the latest information provided by CDC, 300 cases reported so far out of more than 20 million adolescents and young adults have been vaccinated in the U.S.. It is around or less than 0.0015% what is rare but worth investigating the causes. The CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices group meeting has been rescheduled due to the Juneteenth holiday for this week to discuss. Whatever we're aware of is aligned with CDC's report as well that most cases have been mild so far. “The vast majority have fully resolved with rest and supportive care.” .To answer your question, no death has been reported yet from this. Please also note we don't know yet the preexisting conditions of these patients like whether they had obesity, diabetes and or heart or any health related issues. Hope this answer your questions.

      @@medscigeek7253 Thank you for your reply. Though I am going to express frustration, I do appreciate the response. I'm aware of most of what you've communicated here. Can you tell me your position? Are you from the UCSF School of Medicine?
      Respectfully, the language you've chosen is, though surely unintentional, seemingly insensitive when you say, "but worth investigating". These aren't just numbers, they're young people who deserve to have responsible adults looking after their well being. It's not worth investigating, it absolutely warrants, demands, requires, investigation. In addition, cases are under reported (and I know this even from personal knowledge of physician non-reporting) but even taking these numbers alone at face value, there is still an obvious imbalance and a definite safety signal in this nascent, evolving database. I hope the CDC execs and staff enjoyed their potato salad and beer on their holiday while the vaccine rollout continued, undeterred and unfettered by pesky bioethical concerns, across the country. Meanwhile, there are other countries, as well as the WHO, not approving or not recommending vaccinations for children and young adults, and not just based on supply considerations, but also based on lack of evidence to do so.
      To those adversely affected, it doesn't matter if it's "rare". The pharmaceutical companies, government, employers, etc. are immune to any liability. Who pays these medical and hospital bills, time off work to address, etc.? Let's keep it real. There is more financial coverage for young people who accrue medical bills from contracting the actual SARS-CoV-2 infection itself than from that caused by the vaccine and we don't know the long-term effects endured. Myocarditis complications can last a lifetime.
      It is negligent that the CDC so nonchalantly rescheduled their "emergency" meeting. Doctors, nurses, patients...they all show up on holidays. The CDC needs to get to work and be the public facing voice of reason and accountability here. In the meantime they should have made a statement to hold off until they had the meeting. You want to handle vaccine hesitancy? Again, with all due respect, tone-deaf messaging and ridiculously poor optics are not the way to do so.

    If a steep surge spirals out of control in a dense populated major country, incoming flights should be banned immediately, without our scientists study the data first. Later they can advice to either reinstall or maintain the banned flights. Pandemics of this proportion call for pro active action. How not to do it, is what happened with India and the UK where the approach was: well, we can't ban flights before we understand the data. This approach resulted in: Let's make Delta the dominant variant here, so we can have a close look at it.

    I'm attending an event in Brevard country tomorrow evening, comprised of concerned taxpayers that feel they are being lied to, by government and health officials. The film "Seeing 2020: The censored science" will be shown with discussion and Q&A afterword. You can watch the trailer on youtube. Also, if you want to get a "look behind the curtain"....check out The Amazing Polly on Bitchute. She's excellent at connecting the dots between people and money.

    It is rational to attribute the benefits to the successor organization alone, rather than acknowledge the strengths & weaknesses of the predecessor that set the stage? It seems that the significance of the delays and successes transcend those who would claim credit. What is the sustainable, de minimus use of resources we need to do now to reduce the damage as possible next time?

    When preexisting condition coverage is mandated, insurance rates do go up.
    Someone has to pay and it won't be health insurance companies. There is no free lunch.
    The people that held continuous insurance coverage or the taxpayers will pay for those that didn't have coverage when diagnosed. You can argue that the benefit is greater than the harm, but to argue that no one is harmed, is just silly.

      @8Truth Seeking Useful link but rude remark. I've looked at the site. 4,800 reports - that's reports, not cases, as VAERS makes it clear there is often more than one report per case. Cases are reports of serious adverse health events that occur around the time of vaccination and VAER makes it clear that most events are generally not due to vaccine but they do assess each report. I am thinking a maximum of a few hundred serious outcomes out of all those millions of vaccines. How many lives have been saved by the vaccines? I expect you have checked that out.

    I expected two of the most consistent, most informed and positive voices during this crisis, to objectively cover how this occured and the larger questions of how do we improve rather than wasting time complaining about those who emphasize a different set of priorities. Though it is natural to be tired and frustrated, leaders provide paths to solutions.
    Some parts of this were like listening to Flemish chew on Walloons.

    I have a cousin that has it had ObamaCare insurance. Only family member I am aware of that applied for this insurance. Her employer had offered retirement health insurance. But once Obama implemented Obamacare that retirement package was ditched by the employer and she was instructed to go get your own. Her and her husband worked at the same place, unfortunately. She told me that the ObamaCare was a huge expense and waste of money. It cost her and her husband hundreds a month premiums. They had huge deductibles and copays. She said the only way they would ever be able to use ObamaCare was if either one of them had a major illness. And at that point they would have to pay thousands out of their own pocket. The only thing I am aware of with ObamaCare was the penalty for people on their federal taxes if they chose NOT to take an asinine insurance offered by the Obama administration. That was a huge joke. And you are lying about President Trump trying to take away pre-existing conditions. You said it yourself, it didn’t hurt anyone. As a Demonic state you are lying.

I know nothing about him; he may be another Einstein, but I could not watch enough of his presentation to discover that. I know Californians think they are so cool by flouting all standards of appropriate behavior, but he was disgusting to look at.
