I'm surprised you believe anything this doctor says but that's the "cherry picking" process going on here.
At the time that he said that there was a shortage of N95 masks and he was trying to prevent a run on them to protect the supply for doctors and nurses.

I don't believe anything he says. That's the point. He's a lifelong government hack whose best interest is to create hysteria among the masses. The NIAID will have no shortage of funding for the next twenty years because of this nonsense.

Major seems to think everyone in government is involved in a massive plot to subvert our rights . This guy can’t be legit. No one could have views this off base.

When is the last time a right was taken away or a government power expanded and it was later reversed?

I believe and live every word that I have written. And the dirty little secret is that most of America believes as I do. We are a silent majority.

The coronavirus is something brand new that we have never had experience with before. Like anything else, the more information we get, the better decisions and choices we can make.
Two months ago, it was uncertain how the virus was being transmitted. The thought, at that time, was that it was most likely that if we touch something that someone else touched who was infected and didn’t wash our hands and then touched our face , we would get the virus.
Now, after being able to study this virus for over two months, we are being told that it is transmitted by droplets in the air that we are expelling as we are breathing as well as talking.
I don’t understand why people are still debating at this point whether or not we should be wearing masks. The people that choose not to follow recommendations at this point are the ones that are causing the economy to be in the terrible condition that it is in.

I think this statement is patently wrong. The economy wouldn't be in terrible condition if we didn't intentionally destroy it. Heard immunity seems like a much better approach. As previously stated, this is a disastrous social experiment.

"Heard immunity", "every man for himself", "only the strong will survive", "thinning the heard", It's sad state of affairs that there are people in our country that think this way.

Many of us think this way. It’s unfortunate that you must have others think for you and protect you and your family. Some would label you a burden on society

I'm sure you're labeling me as a burden on society even though I worked and paid my dues to for over 50 years. Yes, it's just disgraceful of me to want to stay healthy.

You are describing life. Heard immunity works. (See Sweden.)

In life it is every man for himself. No one owes you a thing. We are not all in this together. Those who have lost their jobs or their businesses have sacrificed more than most. (And do not give me the crack about lives lost. One life is too many, but let's face it if you are relatively young and in decent health it is almost statistically impossible to die from Chinese coronavirus.) Those who have government jobs haven't sacrificed one bit.

In life the strong (whether judged by health, smartness, drive, ambition) do succeed at a higher level.

No one ever said there's a benefit to thinning the herd. That's hyperbole I guess.

This judge in Illinois hit the nail on the head:

That's just factually incorrect. See below. And they are nowhere close to the goal at the and of May. They are struggling with this and on top of that, they are still not sure that having contracted the disease is a guarantee that a person becomes immune.

Despite its relaxed response, Sweden is nowhere near to hitting that goal. Tests on 1,118 Stockholm residents carried out by Sweden's Public Health Agency over one week in late April showed that only 7.3% had developed the antibodies needed to stave off the disease.

Test conducted in April fail to prove your point. Depending on who reports, Sweden is a success story. I can reference stories touting Sweden's success. I am sure you can find countless stories from leftwing media hacks that Sweden is an all out disaster, people dying in the streets, etc. At the end of the day, Sweden's death rate will most likely mimic the rest of the world, and they didn't destroy their economy to do it.

All the stories from the left are by media hacks but all the stories from the right are from reputable sources, according to you?

Two words -- "Russian Collusion." I rest my case.

Finally something we agree on. They totally manipulated our election process!

This is beginning to feel like a social experiment gone awry.

Of course you don't!
You don't believe anything that doesn't fit your agenda.

My only agenda is to stay healthy. If that means staying at home or wearing a mask then so be it.
I'm retired so this is no financial burden or civil liberties burden on me.
Do I want things to open back up? Sure I do but safely.

And there my friends is the rub. I got mine. I'm all set. So what if the life of a guy who spent the last 20 years building a business or career is destroyed in a nanosecond. So what if a young man or woman graduating from college cannot find a job. So what if a person struggling with life for one reason or another is forced not to work and stay at home and becoming more and more depressed. So what if a mother (or in some cases a father) is forced to quit their jobs to stay at home with the children. Let's destroy millions upon millions of lives for let's face it from a statistical standpoint is a really bad (perhaps historically bad) flu year. My dad is 75 and a cancer survivor. My mom is 76 and has advanced COPD. Both would rather sacrifice their lives for fulfillment of their children's and grandchildren's future. They, like me, believe this is nonsense, and completely and utterly selfish of the older generation who is making all of the decisions.

But who cares, I'm financially fine.

I've been around a long time and have been though many tough times. But nice spin!
