| 1:10.6 | And then of course, right now we've got the best time ever to become a Blaze TV subscriber. You can go to blaze TV dot com slash Dace. Use my name Steve is the promo code at blaze TV dot com slash Dace. They'll slash 30 dollars off the cost of an annual subscription. |
| 1:26.6 | It comes out to like five dollars and change a month. I have to believe we're worth that. If we're not, I guarantee there's at least another of the myriad of shows we have here at blaze TV that are worth it. |
| 1:36.6 | Five dollars and change a month is all it will cost you for the next year to be a subscriber here to blaze TV. |
| 1:43.6 | So you don't miss anything that we and anybody else does, including the overtime, which is the bonus mini episode we do every broadcast day exclusively for our blaze TV subscribers. |
| 1:55.6 | Coming up today, we will not have our weekly profit of woe and lamentation. Daniel Horowitz just could not muster the woe and lamentation because he's heading to the hospital today for to pick up their family's brand new baby girl. So we have essentially have discovered the antidote to the perpetual furrowed brow of one Daniel Horowitz. |
| 2:16.6 | And it is he finally gets to bring home from the hospital his own little princess. So he is taking the week off from the woe and lamentation in its place. |
| 2:25.6 | We will talk to somebody who is writing today for the American spectator with a similar view following the data that we have expressed on this show. And so we're going to compare notes and we're going to do that a little bit later on before that, of course, we'll have plenty of buy sell or hold and until then. |
| 2:41.6 | Before we get to all of those others, any high jinks here is errands rundown of what happened while we were away. |
| 2:47.6 | What happened while we were away brought to you by not knowing how to count. |
| 2:51.6 | I think in this country, we've taken a very liberal approach to mortality. And I think the reporting here has been pretty straightforward over the last five to six weeks. |
| 3:03.6 | Right now we're still recording it and we all I mean the great thing about having forms that come in and a form that has the ability to market as COVID-19 infection. |
| 3:15.6 | The intent is right now that those if someone dies with COVID-19, we are counting that as a COVID-19 death. |
| 3:24.6 | That's Dr Deborah Birx of the White House Coronavirus Task Force speaking to reporters yesterday. Apparently someone who dies of a heart attack and tests positive for COVID-19 is counted as a COVID-19 death. |
| 3:37.6 | So that's cool. What's also cool is that one of the models being cited by the White House Coronavirus Task Force from the Institute for Health, Metrics and Evaluation at the University of Washington has once again downgraded and revised their forecast and modeling for the spread of the pandemic. |
| 3:53.6 | It now estimates around 60,000 Americans will die of the Wuhan coronavirus within the next few months with a peak in hospital resource use happening in three days from right now. |
| 4:06.6 | Remember Dr. Birx and Fauci said just last week 100 to 240,000 Americans dying would be a best case scenario. Dr. Fauci, your thoughts? |
| 4:15.6 | Some of you know I've the greater proportion of my professional career has been defined by HIV AIDS. And if you go back then during that period of time when there was extraordinary stigma particularly against the gay community. |
