Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 1087 Scott Adams： What I Think is Bullshit About Coronavirus Opinions. Biden's Rotting Brain, Election Predictions

00:00:00.000 Bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum 1.00

00:00:09.700 bum bum bum bum bum. 0.95

00:00:13.040 Hey everybody, come on in.

00:00:16.320 It's time for Coffee with Scott Adams.

00:00:18.980 Is it going to be a good one?

00:00:21.080 No, it's going to be a great one.

00:00:23.800 So great that you'll be wondering why I held back until now.

00:00:30.000 Yes, that's how good it will be, just like every morning.

00:00:33.300 The simultaneous sip is the highlight of the day,

00:00:36.840 and all you need to enjoy it, I think you know,

00:00:41.700 but just in case someone is new,

00:00:43.920 you need a cup or mug or a glass of tank or chalice or stein,

00:00:47.560 a canteen jug or flask or a vessel of any kind.

00:00:51.340 Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee.

00:00:55.100 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure,

00:00:57.660 the dopamine hit of the day,

00:00:59.220 the thing that makes everything better.

00:01:02.660 It's called the simultaneous sip, and it happens now.

00:01:05.320 Go.

00:01:09.940 I feel the herd immunity level dropping.

00:01:17.820 Yes, we'll have herd immunity probably at 1% now,

00:01:22.100 if you all did the simultaneous sip.

00:01:25.000 If some of you decided not to do the simultaneous sip,

00:01:28.420 well, I make no promises.

00:01:30.740 See, that's my out.

00:01:32.600 All right, let's talk about the news.

00:01:35.880 Chicago is falling apart.

00:01:37.800 It's being looted.

00:01:40.560 And I still don't care.

00:01:42.280 I'd love to.

00:01:44.960 I want to care.

00:01:46.800 But I don't feel like I should care about people more than they care about themselves.

00:01:52.380 So I'd say that Black Lives Matter is completely discredited,

00:01:56.920 which is sad because it was only a month or so ago that they were riding high and looking very credible in their claims.

00:02:06.980 But time goes by and now Black Lives Matter has morphed from a sincere concern by most people who are marching

00:02:15.460 into some kind of a Marxist looting opportunity based on bullshit.

00:02:25.560 So I feel sorry for the people who are trying to make a difference,

00:02:31.100 because if you've associated with Black Lives Matter, the organization, not the idea, but just the organization,

00:02:39.060 you have chosen a bad horse to ride.

00:02:42.120 So the highlight films from the looting in Chicago, the big game, big game in Chicago,

00:02:49.900 were fun to watch.

00:02:52.280 And that was all I cared about it.

00:02:55.100 I just can't care about Chicago more than Chicago cares about itself.

00:02:59.940 I don't think it works that way.

00:03:01.700 If they really, really cared about themselves,

00:03:04.940 well, they might act differently.

00:03:06.480 And then I would see what I could do to help.

00:03:08.200 The fake news story of the day is that President Trump was trying to figure out

00:03:16.800 how to get his face on Mount Rushmore.

00:03:20.180 Now, when I say fake news,

00:03:23.940 you know, we live in a world where nothing's quite as clean as it could be.

00:03:28.920 Is it possible that the president had once mentioned to the governor of North Dakota,

00:03:36.360 South Dakota, whichever Dakota,

00:03:39.280 that all the Dakotas are alike?

00:03:43.360 I mean, do you really need a north and the south?

00:03:46.180 It's a little bit overkill.

00:03:48.480 How about just one Dakota? 0.91

00:03:51.560 We don't need two.

00:03:55.400 But anyway, is it possible that the president ever asked about what it would take to get on there?

00:04:01.440 Yeah, it's possible.

00:04:03.780 Totally possible.

00:04:05.480 But how serious would he have been?

00:04:09.180 Well, maybe you look into it.

00:04:11.720 Now, the thing that I like most about President Trump,

00:04:16.360 other than he's just damn entertaining all the time,

00:04:19.220 is that he doesn't seem to have any limits on what he thinks is possible.

00:04:24.940 To a large degree, that's what makes him successful.

00:04:29.760 He has that anything can happen.

00:04:32.040 I can be president.

00:04:33.120 I can build a building.

00:04:35.240 I can become a billionaire, even if I've lost all my money.

00:04:38.820 So he has this sort of indomitable, why not, attitude.

00:04:43.640 So if you take the person who won the presidency against all odds,

00:04:48.600 did some amazing accomplishments, in my opinion, even already,

00:04:54.960 would that personality at least ask the question?

00:05:00.820 I'm just asking.

00:05:02.960 Hypothetically, what would it take for a president who did a really good job,

00:05:10.340 you know, just for example, to get an extra hat up on there?

00:05:14.940 What would it take?

00:05:16.020 Is it possible that President Trump ever asked that question?

00:05:20.760 I hope so.

00:05:23.640 I really do.

00:05:25.300 I hope he did.

00:05:26.940 Because that's the guy I like as my president.

00:05:30.180 I like the guy who might say,

00:05:32.460 I'm not saying it's likely, but let's just feel it out a little bit.

00:05:38.660 If you can tell me that you genuinely don't appreciate that,

00:05:43.320 that that's who he is, I don't know.

00:05:48.060 I think you're missing the best part of him,

00:05:50.020 is that he literally thinks there's nothing out of bounds,

00:05:54.120 in terms of, you know, the possibility is in terms of good things,

00:05:58.080 specifically.

00:05:59.800 Is it possible that a staffer once contacted somebody to ask what the process is?

00:06:06.600 Could be.

00:06:07.100 I mean, it's as likely fake news as not, right?

00:06:10.880 Whenever you hear the anonymous person did something.

00:06:14.120 So when the president says it's fake news, that's probably true.

00:06:17.880 That's probably true.

00:06:18.760 It's probably fake news.

00:06:20.280 But things are not always yes or no.

00:06:23.920 Is it possible that a rogue staffer could have asked about the process?

00:06:29.600 Here's why that makes sense.

00:06:33.280 If I were, let's say, on the campaign staff,

00:06:36.480 or just the staff in the White House,

00:06:38.600 wouldn't you kind of know if,

00:06:40.520 wouldn't you want to know if there's a process?

00:06:43.240 Because if there is a process,

00:06:45.520 how hilarious would it be to start it going?

00:06:49.880 You see where I'm going?

00:06:51.520 So CNN reports it like it's a case of trying to get on there.

00:06:56.820 Maybe.

00:06:57.620 Who knows?

00:06:58.180 More likely, you just ask the question.

00:07:00.760 Because, hey, you never know.

00:07:02.720 But if a staffer contacted to ask what the process is,

00:07:07.560 the calculation you should do in your head is,

00:07:10.920 how would it look if he was already in the process?

00:07:15.280 And obviously, you could get enough Republicans to vote for it,

00:07:19.340 to sign a poll, do a petition, fill out some paperwork.

00:07:23.000 So if there is a process,

00:07:25.960 wouldn't it be funny if he were in the process,

00:07:30.740 even if he didn't think it would necessarily culminate with him being on there?

00:07:34.960 It would just be sort of delightful.

00:07:37.800 It would be sort of like being nominated for the Nobel Prize.

00:07:42.160 Because, you know, it's better than nothing, right?

00:07:46.280 It doesn't mean you're going to get it.

00:07:48.440 But it would be kind of hilarious to have that process going.

00:07:52.460 So could a staffer have done that as sort of a strategic thing

00:07:56.360 because it would look good and it would be funny?

00:07:58.860 Maybe.

00:07:59.920 Maybe.

00:08:00.360 But I think fake news has got to be your first go-to on likelihood.

00:08:07.600 Now, there's a...

00:08:10.800 I can give you a sneak peek of some information

00:08:15.620 that's going to come out in a few hours.

00:08:18.820 So Rasmussen will be reporting this morning,

00:08:23.020 but have not yet.

00:08:24.180 I got permission to tell you this in advance.

00:08:27.260 But they're going to show the Rasmussen poll

00:08:31.420 that 59% think Biden is unlikely to finish a four-year term in the White House.

00:08:38.300 59% think he won't finish a four-year term.

00:08:45.220 Now, as you know, CNN has quite hilariously decided that...

00:08:51.100 And I think the Washington Post and some other anti-Trump outlets

00:08:55.000 have hilariously decided that their defense of Joe Biden

00:08:59.740 will be the Monty Python defense.

00:09:03.860 If you don't know the Monty Python defense,

00:09:06.740 I'm not going to do a Monty Python scheme or sketch

00:09:10.820 because it's been done to death.

00:09:13.080 I will, however, bring in Dale

00:09:16.380 to give his full-throated defense

00:09:19.900 of why it is that Joe Biden

00:09:22.100 is clearly, clearly mentally competent.

00:09:27.080 Dale, could you come over here?

00:09:28.780 We've got some questions about President Biden.

00:09:31.920 What's the question?

00:09:32.760 Well, the question is,

00:09:33.980 why do you think he's mentally competent?

00:09:37.160 Because we're all watching him talk

00:09:39.540 and it's not looking good.

00:09:42.400 But you're pretty sure he's mentally competent.

00:09:44.480 Dale, can you come over here and explain this?

00:09:48.940 Sure.

00:09:50.460 It's obvious.

00:09:52.900 Have you seen the man ride a bike?

00:09:56.300 Proof.

00:09:57.540 I don't want to get all science on you

00:09:59.480 because I know you're a denier.

00:10:00.660 But when you see the science of the bicycle riding,

00:10:04.960 I think that's pretty, pretty much

00:10:08.040 puts the lid on those rumors

00:10:10.680 about Joe Biden's competence.

00:10:14.660 And, moreover,

00:10:16.240 I think you would agree,

00:10:18.660 he didn't just ride it in a straight line.

00:10:22.920 He took corners

00:10:24.420 and he took a well.

00:10:26.900 He took corners on that bicycle

00:10:28.520 like, I don't know,

00:10:31.580 like, you know,

00:10:32.900 a 25-year-old man

00:10:34.040 could barely make a corner like that.

00:10:36.020 It was almost 45 degrees.

00:10:38.420 He took it with no trouble at all.

00:10:41.500 And you know

00:10:42.340 that you can't have a mental incompetence

00:10:45.600 and ride a bicycle.

00:10:48.260 What?

00:10:50.200 Okay, I'm being told

00:10:51.500 that you could totally ride a bicycle

00:10:53.660 if you were mentally incompetent. 0.75

00:10:56.860 But that's not what's happening.

00:10:58.520 You could tell by the way

00:11:00.120 he is riding it.

00:11:02.080 The style of his riding,

00:11:04.160 the capability,

00:11:05.740 the competence,

00:11:06.780 the corners,

00:11:08.420 the way he turns,

00:11:09.800 that just speaks

00:11:12.360 mental competence,

00:11:13.460 I think,

00:11:14.200 pretty clearly.

00:11:16.920 And scene.

00:11:17.920 So,

00:11:20.100 the hilarity of,

00:11:22.940 if you didn't see

00:11:24.080 Brian Stelter's defense,

00:11:27.020 and now there's a

00:11:28.120 hilarious

00:11:29.080 blog post

00:11:31.100 on CNN

00:11:32.100 saying that

00:11:33.560 Biden has just

00:11:35.620 driven a stake

00:11:36.580 through the argument

00:11:37.420 that he is mentally incompetent. 0.94

00:11:40.480 You know,

00:11:41.040 before that bicycle riding thing,

00:11:43.780 yeah,

00:11:44.360 you could see why people

00:11:45.520 might be saying it,

00:11:46.440 but now that he rode

00:11:47.620 a bicycle

00:11:48.220 for,

00:11:49.420 I don't know,

00:11:50.220 50 yards,

00:11:51.920 now that we've seen that,

00:11:54.440 well,

00:11:54.980 case closed.

00:11:56.260 Case closed.

00:11:59.320 No, no,

00:12:00.280 he's not dead,

00:12:01.240 he's just resting.

00:12:02.960 In fact,

00:12:03.540 CNN went so far

00:12:04.700 as to say that

00:12:05.660 President Trump's attack

00:12:07.620 on Biden

00:12:08.720 for being sleepy

00:12:09.440 sleepy

00:12:09.960 has now been

00:12:11.160 completely discredited

00:12:12.500 because he rode

00:12:13.720 a bike for 50 yards.

00:12:16.280 And they said that

00:12:17.520 with,

00:12:18.800 like,

00:12:19.160 a straight face,

00:12:20.620 if you can have

00:12:21.240 a straight face

00:12:21.920 while you're writing

00:12:22.540 something.

00:12:23.140 You know what I mean?

00:12:24.340 They sold that

00:12:25.080 as a serious

00:12:25.900 commentary.

00:12:29.360 So,

00:12:29.940 that was pretty amusing.

00:12:32.000 The simulation

00:12:33.020 continues to amuse,

00:12:34.720 just as we're wondering

00:12:35.780 if Kamala Harris

00:12:37.460 is going to be

00:12:39.600 the vice president

00:12:40.780 of choice

00:12:41.180 or if that choice

00:12:42.000 is dead.

00:12:44.460 There was somebody

00:12:45.720 with the same name,

00:12:46.760 Kamala Harris,

00:12:47.560 who apparently

00:12:48.360 is a professional wrestler

00:12:49.680 who tragically

00:12:51.480 died yesterday.

00:12:53.120 That's right.

00:12:53.840 Somebody named

00:12:54.620 Kamala Harris

00:12:55.420 died yesterday

00:12:56.740 at the same time

00:12:59.200 we're wondering

00:12:59.660 if her political career

00:13:00.860 is alive or dead.

00:13:02.820 You know,

00:13:03.140 in the sense

00:13:03.640 of the vice president pick.

00:13:04.680 Now,

00:13:07.080 there's some speculation

00:13:08.820 that if she is not

00:13:10.160 chosen as the

00:13:11.160 vice president pick,

00:13:13.340 that,

00:13:13.780 that maybe

00:13:16.080 she's,

00:13:17.500 they're holding

00:13:17.900 around for the

00:13:18.620 presidential spot.

00:13:20.080 Now,

00:13:20.260 people ask me,

00:13:21.020 Scott,

00:13:21.320 Scott,

00:13:21.580 Scott.

00:13:22.180 It doesn't make sense

00:13:23.600 that they would pick

00:13:24.300 somebody else

00:13:25.240 for a vice president

00:13:26.300 because that person

00:13:29.140 would be the obvious

00:13:29.940 person to become

00:13:30.880 the top candidate

00:13:31.860 if Joe Biden

00:13:33.180 dropped down.

00:13:33.720 So it doesn't make sense

00:13:34.800 that they would,

00:13:35.940 you know,

00:13:36.200 put in somebody

00:13:36.860 else at the top

00:13:37.820 when the whole point

00:13:39.400 of a vice presidential

00:13:40.300 pick is that

00:13:41.220 they're ready now

00:13:42.140 to take the top spot.

00:13:44.140 So you'd have to ask,

00:13:45.120 you know,

00:13:45.340 why,

00:13:46.280 you know,

00:13:46.460 if somebody else

00:13:47.120 is the top spot,

00:13:48.600 why did you pick

00:13:50.040 this vice president

00:13:50.840 in the first place?

00:13:51.640 And the answer is,

00:13:54.240 what if they already

00:13:56.120 know they're going

00:13:57.140 to get rid

00:13:57.720 of the top spot

00:13:58.900 before election day?

00:14:00.980 What if they know

00:14:02.280 they want to replace

00:14:03.440 the top

00:14:04.040 and put in

00:14:05.420 the vice presidential

00:14:06.740 pick

00:14:07.220 at maybe the same time?

00:14:09.840 What would that look like?

00:14:11.600 Well,

00:14:11.840 what that would look like

00:14:12.700 is you would absolutely

00:14:13.740 have to pick somebody

00:14:14.880 for the top spot

00:14:16.020 who had been recently

00:14:17.920 running for president.

00:14:18.920 I think you would be

00:14:20.480 limited to that

00:14:21.320 because the public

00:14:22.760 would just sort of insist

00:14:24.700 that somebody

00:14:25.300 who would put in

00:14:25.820 the work,

00:14:26.720 you know,

00:14:27.360 is considered.

00:14:28.460 So that would be,

00:14:28.940 you know,

00:14:29.160 your Elizabeth Warren,

00:14:30.540 your Kamala Harris's,

00:14:33.200 your Cory Booker's,

00:14:34.220 et cetera.

00:14:35.360 But Kamala is probably

00:14:37.800 the strongest

00:14:38.580 of that group,

00:14:40.500 if you ask me.

00:14:42.300 And if she doesn't

00:14:45.020 get picked,

00:14:45.880 or let's say

00:14:46.740 the longer you go,

00:14:48.120 every day that we go

00:14:50.000 without a VP pick

00:14:51.940 suggests that they're

00:14:54.140 looking to change out

00:14:55.180 both candidates.

00:14:57.800 So that doesn't mean

00:14:58.980 it's true,

00:14:59.920 but it's very suggestive

00:15:01.620 of the fact that

00:15:02.500 there's a bigger decision

00:15:03.640 than just the VP.

00:15:05.500 Now,

00:15:06.140 if today they announce

00:15:07.540 the VP

00:15:08.000 and it's,

00:15:08.800 you know,

00:15:10.360 Bass,

00:15:10.940 then I think

00:15:11.460 they have other problems

00:15:12.780 in terms of the

00:15:14.460 Kamala Harris theory.

00:15:16.120 would it be possible

00:15:18.840 that you could

00:15:20.080 make the change

00:15:20.820 after Biden

00:15:21.940 had picked

00:15:22.460 some other

00:15:23.200 vice president?

00:15:24.580 And the answer is,

00:15:25.800 yeah,

00:15:26.120 you could.

00:15:27.480 Work with me on this.

00:15:28.900 Let's just think

00:15:30.000 this through.

00:15:30.960 Let's say Biden

00:15:31.920 picked Karen Bass 1.00

00:15:33.580 for a vice president.

00:15:35.680 You might say to yourself,

00:15:37.140 well,

00:15:37.600 you know,

00:15:38.480 not really tested

00:15:39.640 at the highest level.

00:15:42.900 You kind of want

00:15:43.660 a governor

00:15:44.200 or a senator

00:15:45.520 or something.

00:15:46.600 Wait,

00:15:46.800 what is Karen Bass? 1.00

00:15:47.800 A representative?

00:15:50.000 So you might say to yourself,

00:15:51.480 okay,

00:15:52.120 that's as good as

00:15:53.260 a vice presidential pick

00:15:56.440 needs to be.

00:15:57.980 Now,

00:15:58.500 the whole point

00:15:59.040 of a vice president pick

00:16:00.120 is that they need

00:16:00.860 to look less good

00:16:02.140 than the top

00:16:02.920 of the ticket.

00:16:04.120 If you don't get

00:16:05.060 that right,

00:16:06.100 it's a bad look.

00:16:07.420 You don't want

00:16:07.780 your vice president pick

00:16:09.000 to be clearly

00:16:10.180 a better candidate

00:16:11.220 than the top

00:16:12.080 of the ticket.

00:16:13.720 So,

00:16:15.200 what happens

00:16:15.880 if Biden drops out

00:16:17.560 before election day

00:16:18.840 and Bass

00:16:20.100 is the vice presidential pick?

00:16:22.240 Do you feel her

00:16:23.340 as the top

00:16:24.060 of the ticket?

00:16:25.340 I don't.

00:16:26.620 Because it would feel

00:16:27.200 like she hasn't been

00:16:27.880 quite tested enough.

00:16:29.780 But,

00:16:30.180 you could easily

00:16:30.760 see Kamala Harris

00:16:31.600 at the top

00:16:32.120 of the ticket.

00:16:33.420 So,

00:16:33.800 I do think

00:16:34.320 that in this weird

00:16:35.420 case of

00:16:36.580 replacing

00:16:37.620 a candidate

00:16:38.380 before the election,

00:16:39.520 if it happens,

00:16:40.820 it does open

00:16:41.520 the possibility

00:16:42.180 that Kamala

00:16:43.500 could be slotted

00:16:44.320 into the top slot

00:16:45.340 without ever

00:16:46.500 having been

00:16:47.240 picked as

00:16:48.380 the vice president.

00:16:49.580 Completely possible

00:16:50.620 in my opinion.

00:16:52.600 But,

00:16:53.060 every day

00:16:53.840 that goes by,

00:16:54.940 people are saying,

00:16:55.720 I don't think

00:16:56.560 it's Kamala.

00:16:58.180 Maybe,

00:16:58.800 like

00:16:59.100 Willie Brown

00:17:00.920 said recently,

00:17:01.720 she'd be a better

00:17:02.400 attorney general.

00:17:03.960 To which I say,

00:17:05.840 strong argument.

00:17:07.620 strong argument.

00:17:09.200 She could be,

00:17:10.420 she would probably 0.94

00:17:12.400 be,

00:17:12.820 you know,

00:17:13.840 a strong pick

00:17:14.460 for attorney general.

00:17:15.960 So,

00:17:16.240 maybe,

00:17:16.620 we'll see.

00:17:20.840 Let's see

00:17:21.440 what else

00:17:21.800 is going on.

00:17:25.020 I think

00:17:25.660 we've got to

00:17:26.040 talk about

00:17:26.460 coronavirus.

00:17:28.180 But,

00:17:28.660 before we do

00:17:29.160 that,

00:17:29.880 let's talk

00:17:30.280 about sports.

00:17:31.060 I did a tweet

00:17:32.000 in which I asked

00:17:32.740 people

00:17:33.100 if they've

00:17:34.440 lost interest

00:17:35.620 in any

00:17:36.180 professional sports

00:17:37.440 that they used

00:17:38.200 to be interested

00:17:38.780 in.

00:17:39.740 And,

00:17:40.020 man,

00:17:40.280 did people

00:17:40.680 lose interest.

00:17:42.160 People lost

00:17:43.100 a lot of interest.

00:17:45.500 And,

00:17:45.980 I don't know

00:17:46.560 if it's

00:17:47.040 just because

00:17:48.300 the way

00:17:48.720 they're doing it

00:17:49.340 without the crowds,

00:17:50.700 because it's

00:17:51.220 a late season,

00:17:52.320 so it doesn't

00:17:52.780 look like it

00:17:53.280 really counts

00:17:54.000 in the usual way,

00:17:55.320 or if people

00:17:56.420 just got out

00:17:57.040 of the habit.

00:17:58.660 And,

00:17:58.900 here's the thing

00:17:59.460 I like to inject

00:18:00.320 into the

00:18:01.020 conversation.

00:18:02.680 If you're

00:18:03.340 looking at

00:18:03.740 what is

00:18:04.100 the future

00:18:04.740 of sports,

00:18:05.880 I would suggest

00:18:06.900 that breaking

00:18:07.560 people from

00:18:08.320 their habit

00:18:09.080 of every Sunday

00:18:11.100 I sit down

00:18:11.740 and I watch

00:18:12.140 my sports,

00:18:12.920 or every evening

00:18:14.240 I watch a

00:18:14.760 basketball game

00:18:15.440 in the fall,

00:18:17.120 whatever your

00:18:17.740 habit was,

00:18:19.200 your habit

00:18:19.660 probably got

00:18:20.220 broken.

00:18:21.500 And,

00:18:21.820 when a habit

00:18:22.200 gets broken,

00:18:23.760 it's hard

00:18:24.780 to get it

00:18:25.640 back,

00:18:26.380 because you

00:18:27.000 just can't

00:18:27.660 beat a habit

00:18:28.360 for locking

00:18:29.060 in a product.

00:18:29.820 It's one

00:18:30.500 of the

00:18:30.660 reasons that

00:18:31.300 comic strips

00:18:32.140 can last

00:18:33.220 for 30

00:18:33.800 years in

00:18:34.840 the newspaper,

00:18:35.700 whereas a

00:18:36.420 TV show

00:18:37.080 typically can't,

00:18:38.160 etc.

00:18:38.680 And,

00:18:39.180 it's because

00:18:39.520 people are

00:18:39.900 very habit

00:18:40.600 driven for

00:18:41.420 their newspaper

00:18:42.160 habits,

00:18:43.580 which is why

00:18:44.780 newspapers can

00:18:45.600 even still be

00:18:46.220 a thing years

00:18:47.840 after you think

00:18:48.540 people should

00:18:49.080 be watching

00:18:49.540 it on their

00:18:50.500 devices.

00:18:51.880 So,

00:18:52.380 habit is

00:18:52.920 incredibly

00:18:53.700 strong,

00:18:54.680 and the

00:18:55.260 coronavirus

00:18:55.600 broke it.

00:18:56.780 It broke

00:18:57.200 the habit.

00:18:58.420 So,

00:18:58.800 once that

00:18:59.160 habit is

00:18:59.600 broken,

00:19:00.120 I don't

00:19:00.580 know that

00:19:01.060 sports can

00:19:01.880 ever recover

00:19:02.480 back to

00:19:03.380 where they

00:19:03.660 were.

00:19:04.500 I'm sure

00:19:05.100 it'll be a

00:19:05.580 viable business,

00:19:07.040 but I don't

00:19:07.780 think it's

00:19:08.080 getting back

00:19:08.480 to where it

00:19:08.820 was.

00:19:12.600 All right,

00:19:13.400 let me talk

00:19:13.900 about the

00:19:14.760 coronavirus.

00:19:17.400 Oh,

00:19:17.820 yeah,

00:19:18.040 one more

00:19:18.360 thing.

00:19:20.980 So,

00:19:21.580 the president

00:19:22.020 did his

00:19:22.500 executive

00:19:23.020 orders,

00:19:24.100 which,

00:19:24.400 he can't

00:19:26.680 create money

00:19:27.940 that doesn't

00:19:28.440 exist.

00:19:29.180 You need

00:19:29.600 Congress to

00:19:30.700 do that

00:19:31.140 in terms of

00:19:32.260 creating a

00:19:32.800 budget,

00:19:33.420 but he can

00:19:34.060 move things

00:19:34.560 around and

00:19:35.080 he can delay

00:19:35.620 things,

00:19:36.080 and he's

00:19:36.340 using that

00:19:37.560 power for

00:19:38.820 the coronavirus

00:19:39.740 relief stuff.

00:19:41.780 Now,

00:19:42.100 here's my

00:19:42.620 question,

00:19:43.920 or maybe

00:19:44.980 it's a

00:19:45.320 statement.

00:19:46.620 Doesn't

00:19:47.140 Congress seem

00:19:47.960 like the

00:19:48.360 wrong place

00:19:49.260 for budget

00:19:50.100 authority in

00:19:51.620 an emergency.

00:19:53.120 Now,

00:19:53.360 Congress is

00:19:53.980 exactly the

00:19:54.700 right place

00:19:55.140 for budget

00:19:55.620 authority in

00:19:57.180 normal times.

00:19:58.140 Even as

00:19:58.580 dysfunctional as

00:19:59.740 they are,

00:20:00.680 it's still the

00:20:01.260 right place.

00:20:01.980 You still need

00:20:02.500 it to be

00:20:02.800 there.

00:20:03.460 But in the

00:20:03.920 very specific

00:20:04.860 case of a

00:20:05.740 national emergency

00:20:06.760 that affects

00:20:09.200 the economy as

00:20:10.320 well as the

00:20:11.180 well-being of

00:20:11.640 the people,

00:20:12.440 I'm feeling

00:20:13.060 like that's a

00:20:13.820 commander-in-chief

00:20:14.720 job.

00:20:16.600 My perfect

00:20:17.560 situation would

00:20:18.540 be the

00:20:18.880 commander-in-chief

00:20:19.800 in an

00:20:20.960 emergency,

00:20:21.620 could just

00:20:22.880 simply allocate

00:20:23.700 funds as if

00:20:25.260 it were

00:20:26.040 Congress.

00:20:27.640 And you'd

00:20:28.580 have to

00:20:28.960 constrain that

00:20:30.060 so it doesn't

00:20:30.540 get out of

00:20:30.940 control.

00:20:31.460 It has to

00:20:31.880 be an

00:20:32.180 emergency.

00:20:34.060 Maybe

00:20:34.400 Congress

00:20:35.300 needs to

00:20:36.640 say it's

00:20:37.260 an emergency.

00:20:38.100 I don't

00:20:38.200 know.

00:20:38.940 And then

00:20:39.360 I would also

00:20:40.880 suggest that

00:20:41.840 if you have

00:20:42.220 that system

00:20:42.840 and you

00:20:44.000 just say,

00:20:44.720 you know,

00:20:45.020 our homeland

00:20:46.260 defense is

00:20:47.120 inseparable from

00:20:48.140 our economic

00:20:48.960 health.

00:20:50.460 They're

00:20:50.720 inseparable.

00:20:51.620 So the

00:20:52.300 only way to

00:20:52.720 protect the

00:20:53.240 country is to

00:20:53.980 protect the

00:20:54.840 economy.

00:20:55.520 The only way

00:20:55.900 to do that

00:20:56.400 right is also

00:20:57.300 by protecting

00:20:57.960 the people,

00:20:59.080 the health,

00:20:59.680 etc.

00:21:00.820 And

00:21:01.340 therefore,

00:21:02.680 since the

00:21:03.320 economy and

00:21:04.660 the public

00:21:05.460 health and

00:21:06.820 homeland security

00:21:07.700 are really all

00:21:08.520 just one big

00:21:09.220 ball in the

00:21:10.760 specific case of

00:21:11.840 an emergency,

00:21:12.960 I'd rather have

00:21:13.600 the commander-in-chief

00:21:14.460 have complete

00:21:15.540 control of the

00:21:16.240 budget.

00:21:16.520 with this

00:21:18.140 control that

00:21:19.900 the Supreme

00:21:20.600 Court could

00:21:22.420 line veto

00:21:23.780 anything that

00:21:25.460 doesn't meet

00:21:26.020 the test of

00:21:26.800 being applicable

00:21:27.620 to the

00:21:28.120 emergency.

00:21:29.200 So in other

00:21:29.960 words, if your

00:21:30.640 president tried to

00:21:31.420 push through,

00:21:32.300 I don't know,

00:21:33.500 border wall

00:21:34.180 funding just

00:21:36.000 because,

00:21:36.540 ah,

00:21:36.820 the commander-in-chief

00:21:37.920 has all the

00:21:38.440 power now,

00:21:39.460 it's an emergency,

00:21:40.340 I'll use the

00:21:40.840 emergency to get

00:21:41.640 this other

00:21:42.580 stuff.

00:21:43.660 And he makes

00:21:44.340 a case and

00:21:44.960 goes,

00:21:45.200 well, you need

00:21:45.820 border security

00:21:46.740 because then,

00:21:48.020 you know,

00:21:48.520 people don't get

00:21:49.280 in with the

00:21:49.740 virus.

00:21:50.540 And then the

00:21:51.060 Supreme Court

00:21:51.540 looks at it

00:21:52.020 and says,

00:21:52.340 yeah, I hear

00:21:53.040 what you're

00:21:53.320 saying,

00:21:54.400 but you only

00:21:55.500 have authority

00:21:56.020 for immediate

00:21:56.600 stuff.

00:21:57.940 So the

00:21:58.580 border wall

00:21:59.000 is out,

00:22:00.060 but the bill

00:22:00.620 can continue.

00:22:01.820 So nothing

00:22:02.280 gets delayed.

00:22:04.000 The Supreme

00:22:04.720 Court would

00:22:05.220 look at it

00:22:05.780 24 hours and

00:22:07.140 say,

00:22:07.500 no, not

00:22:08.820 this one.

00:22:09.860 You know,

00:22:10.040 the payments

00:22:10.900 to the people,

00:22:11.720 that's good,

00:22:12.420 the delay

00:22:13.000 of this,

00:22:13.560 you can do

00:22:14.020 that,

00:22:14.660 but you

00:22:15.040 can't build

00:22:15.400 a wall.

00:22:16.820 That's not

00:22:17.440 what this

00:22:17.840 emergency stuff

00:22:18.760 is about.

00:22:21.040 Would that

00:22:21.640 be a better

00:22:22.040 system?

00:22:22.860 I'll just

00:22:23.220 put that out

00:22:23.760 there.

00:22:24.420 Because I

00:22:25.100 don't know

00:22:25.560 that when

00:22:25.980 the Constitution

00:22:26.660 was created,

00:22:28.160 this sort

00:22:29.120 of situation

00:22:29.840 was really

00:22:30.400 contemplated.

00:22:31.480 Because in

00:22:31.960 those days,

00:22:32.480 you just had

00:22:32.920 more time

00:22:33.420 for everything.

00:22:36.280 So that's

00:22:37.120 a tweak I

00:22:37.600 would make.

00:22:38.160 Make it the

00:22:38.840 commander-in-chief's

00:22:39.720 job under

00:22:40.580 the emergency

00:22:41.560 situation with

00:22:43.520 the Supreme

00:22:44.220 Court as

00:22:44.700 kind of a

00:22:45.080 check.

00:22:46.380 All right.

00:22:47.560 Because,

00:22:48.180 you know,

00:22:48.620 depending on

00:22:49.260 Congress for

00:22:50.040 money in an

00:22:50.680 emergency,

00:22:51.540 it's just not

00:22:52.580 a thing.

00:22:53.720 It's just not

00:22:54.300 a thing.

00:22:55.620 All right.

00:22:57.660 I've come

00:22:59.140 to some new

00:22:59.960 revised opinions

00:23:01.980 on the

00:23:02.660 coronavirus.

00:23:04.420 And let's

00:23:05.200 go through

00:23:06.140 that.

00:23:07.140 Hydroxychloroquine

00:23:07.860 estimate.

00:23:08.380 I have

00:23:09.020 been at

00:23:09.580 50% chance

00:23:10.980 that it's

00:23:12.700 real and

00:23:13.620 it works

00:23:14.260 if you

00:23:14.920 combine it

00:23:16.920 with the

00:23:17.160 zinc and

00:23:17.500 azithromycin

00:23:18.160 and you

00:23:18.600 give it to

00:23:18.940 people early

00:23:19.660 when they

00:23:20.420 first have

00:23:20.940 symptoms.

00:23:22.060 So I've

00:23:22.360 said,

00:23:22.820 based on

00:23:23.220 what I've

00:23:23.560 seen,

00:23:24.540 sort of a

00:23:25.100 coin flip,

00:23:25.920 sort of a

00:23:26.380 50-50.

00:23:27.200 You just

00:23:27.500 can't tell.

00:23:28.940 And I've

00:23:30.100 revised that

00:23:30.640 down to

00:23:30.980 30%.

00:23:31.960 And I'll

00:23:33.080 tell you

00:23:33.400 why.

00:23:34.100 So it

00:23:34.380 still might

00:23:34.780 work.

00:23:35.160 If it's

00:23:36.100 a 30%

00:23:36.780 chance of

00:23:37.420 working,

00:23:38.700 I'd still

00:23:39.300 want to

00:23:39.780 get the

00:23:40.120 prescription,

00:23:41.060 just in

00:23:41.500 case,

00:23:42.100 because the

00:23:42.540 downside is

00:23:43.260 so low,

00:23:44.320 and the

00:23:44.640 upside is

00:23:45.320 really high.

00:23:47.300 So it

00:23:47.900 doesn't change

00:23:48.480 whether you

00:23:48.920 should get a

00:23:49.420 prescription.

00:23:50.000 But let me

00:23:50.280 tell you why

00:23:50.720 I've lowered

00:23:51.440 my estimate.

00:23:53.540 I've been

00:23:54.120 saying since

00:23:54.660 the beginning

00:23:55.100 that we

00:23:56.160 don't have

00:23:56.780 the good,

00:23:58.160 you know,

00:23:58.560 the RPT,

00:23:59.740 you know,

00:24:00.480 what do you

00:24:02.440 call it,

00:24:02.640 the placebo

00:24:03.200 controlled,

00:24:04.100 randomized

00:24:04.420 study,

00:24:05.320 the gold

00:24:05.940 standard

00:24:06.300 study.

00:24:06.980 So we

00:24:07.320 don't have

00:24:07.740 that kind

00:24:08.160 of study

00:24:08.580 for the

00:24:09.160 appropriate

00:24:09.660 use of

00:24:10.280 the drug,

00:24:10.780 which is

00:24:11.080 early and

00:24:11.840 with the

00:24:12.220 zinc.

00:24:12.840 We have

00:24:13.380 studies that

00:24:13.960 show it

00:24:14.240 without the

00:24:14.700 zinc,

00:24:15.340 they're

00:24:15.540 worthless.

00:24:16.280 We have

00:24:16.700 studies that

00:24:17.340 show it

00:24:17.740 when you

00:24:17.960 use it at

00:24:18.360 the wrong

00:24:18.660 time,

00:24:19.220 when it's

00:24:19.480 too late,

00:24:20.520 they're

00:24:20.780 worthless.

00:24:21.540 So there

00:24:22.020 are lots

00:24:22.460 of high

00:24:22.880 quality studies

00:24:23.620 of the

00:24:24.180 wrong stuff.

00:24:26.040 So we've

00:24:26.400 got good

00:24:27.000 studies of

00:24:27.600 the wrong

00:24:28.000 stuff,

00:24:29.140 worthless.

00:24:30.500 We have,

00:24:31.580 I think

00:24:32.180 the number

00:24:32.900 was 56 or

00:24:34.200 more studies,

00:24:36.140 if you will,

00:24:36.760 but not the

00:24:37.380 RPT gold

00:24:38.480 standard studies

00:24:39.360 that suggest

00:24:40.420 it works.

00:24:42.260 And it's

00:24:43.100 been asked,

00:24:43.680 what are the

00:24:44.040 chances that

00:24:45.360 you'd have all

00:24:46.360 these studies

00:24:47.340 that, sure,

00:24:48.640 they're not gold

00:24:49.200 standard, but

00:24:49.760 they're different

00:24:50.240 ways of looking

00:24:50.920 at it, and

00:24:51.840 they all point

00:24:53.000 in the same

00:24:53.400 direction?

00:24:54.420 It's a pretty

00:24:54.820 good point.

00:24:56.240 But, it's

00:24:57.860 not evidence.

00:24:59.380 It just

00:24:59.800 doesn't rule

00:25:00.360 it out.

00:25:02.560 So I

00:25:03.120 wouldn't put

00:25:03.520 too much

00:25:04.340 weight on

00:25:04.740 that, because

00:25:05.660 first of all,

00:25:06.460 if somebody

00:25:06.880 had a study

00:25:07.700 that was

00:25:08.120 different,

00:25:08.800 would we

00:25:09.240 have ever

00:25:09.560 seen it?

00:25:10.580 I don't

00:25:10.920 know.

00:25:11.700 So there's

00:25:12.140 lots to be

00:25:13.540 asked about

00:25:14.360 that.

00:25:15.120 And then,

00:25:15.680 what I

00:25:16.440 thought was

00:25:16.880 going to be

00:25:17.400 the most

00:25:18.060 persuasive

00:25:19.060 was comparing

00:25:20.560 countries that

00:25:21.440 used hydroxychloroquine

00:25:22.920 to countries

00:25:24.100 that didn't.

00:25:25.080 How many

00:25:25.580 of you have

00:25:26.080 seen the

00:25:27.100 chart that

00:25:28.260 shows that

00:25:28.800 the country

00:25:29.260 is not

00:25:29.740 using hydroxychloroquine

00:25:31.180 or like their

00:25:31.920 curve is way

00:25:32.660 high, lots of

00:25:34.000 death, lots of

00:25:34.660 infection, compared

00:25:36.260 to the ones who

00:25:36.980 used it early,

00:25:37.880 and it's like

00:25:38.320 nothing.

00:25:40.060 It's like it

00:25:40.820 just wiped out

00:25:41.480 the virus,

00:25:42.140 practically.

00:25:43.020 How many of

00:25:43.660 you have seen

00:25:44.180 that chart?

00:25:45.520 I think Laura

00:25:46.260 Ingram had it

00:25:47.220 on the show.

00:25:49.200 I've tweeted

00:25:49.960 it a bunch of

00:25:50.620 times.

00:25:50.920 You've all seen

00:25:51.420 it, right?

00:25:51.720 So, and

00:25:55.660 Dr. Zelenko

00:25:56.760 had tweeted

00:25:57.720 it himself.

00:25:59.260 So I tweeted

00:26:00.160 his tweet that

00:26:00.960 included that

00:26:01.660 chart in the

00:26:02.340 study, and I

00:26:03.020 asked the smart

00:26:03.940 people on the

00:26:04.500 internet to

00:26:05.060 say, does

00:26:05.880 this look

00:26:06.280 right?

00:26:07.360 What do you

00:26:07.800 think they

00:26:08.140 said?

00:26:09.180 Not even

00:26:09.880 close.

00:26:11.800 Yeah, I

00:26:12.320 think Gummy

00:26:12.840 Bear has run

00:26:13.800 that chart as

00:26:14.440 well.

00:26:15.120 And when you

00:26:16.120 open it up to

00:26:16.760 people who are

00:26:17.360 sort of good at

00:26:18.260 finding problems

00:26:19.180 with things,

00:26:20.260 which is most

00:26:21.060 of my followers,

00:26:22.560 it just doesn't

00:26:23.480 hold up at

00:26:23.940 all.

00:26:25.060 So, here's

00:26:26.520 what's obviously

00:26:27.520 wrong about

00:26:28.200 it.

00:26:29.480 It leaves

00:26:30.040 countries out.

00:26:31.880 Now, if you

00:26:32.360 say to yourself,

00:26:33.220 yeah, but so

00:26:34.440 what if you

00:26:34.880 left some

00:26:35.300 countries out?

00:26:36.200 The ones that

00:26:36.960 are in tell

00:26:38.300 the whole story.

00:26:39.520 If it's true

00:26:40.560 that these

00:26:42.080 countries used

00:26:42.920 it early and

00:26:43.700 they got this

00:26:44.260 result, and

00:26:45.480 it's true that

00:26:46.100 these countries

00:26:46.900 didn't use it

00:26:48.060 and they got a

00:26:48.740 wildly different

00:26:49.560 result, does

00:26:50.840 it really

00:26:51.140 matter that

00:26:52.480 you left

00:26:52.880 out other

00:26:53.440 countries?

00:26:54.220 Because that's

00:26:54.900 enough, right?

00:26:56.720 No.

00:26:57.780 That's how you

00:26:58.580 fake it.

00:26:59.700 The way you

00:27:00.380 create a fake

00:27:01.380 chart is by

00:27:02.660 leaving out the

00:27:03.420 other countries

00:27:04.100 that don't show

00:27:04.880 the pattern.

00:27:06.100 Now, let me

00:27:06.900 ask you this.

00:27:07.940 Does every

00:27:08.580 country have a

00:27:10.260 chart that goes

00:27:11.280 up and then

00:27:12.340 there's some

00:27:12.720 point where it

00:27:13.300 goes down?

00:27:14.340 You all agree

00:27:15.020 that every

00:27:15.440 country has one

00:27:16.180 of those charts,

00:27:16.860 right?

00:27:17.040 They don't

00:27:18.320 all use

00:27:18.680 hydroxychloroquine.

00:27:20.400 Some of them

00:27:21.060 just go, and

00:27:22.020 the United States

00:27:22.860 has sort of

00:27:23.300 that double dip

00:27:23.960 thing, but

00:27:24.840 they all have a

00:27:25.580 point where

00:27:26.220 there's an

00:27:26.640 inflection.

00:27:28.160 Now, the

00:27:28.780 inflections are

00:27:31.000 all compressed

00:27:31.780 in, let's say,

00:27:32.960 just a month

00:27:34.100 or so, right?

00:27:35.420 There's like

00:27:36.100 maybe two

00:27:36.960 months, but

00:27:37.560 something like

00:27:38.320 one month where

00:27:39.560 every country

00:27:40.280 that had an

00:27:40.860 inflection point,

00:27:41.860 it was around

00:27:42.840 about that same

00:27:44.020 time.

00:27:44.400 How many

00:27:46.800 of them also

00:27:47.620 made some

00:27:48.220 kind of a

00:27:48.640 change with

00:27:49.280 their hydroxychloroquine

00:27:50.500 that just

00:27:51.660 coincidentally lines

00:27:53.060 up with when

00:27:54.240 that was going

00:27:54.780 to happen

00:27:55.140 anyway?

00:27:56.460 Doesn't take

00:27:57.100 many.

00:27:57.940 If there were

00:27:58.500 only, let's

00:27:59.440 say, 25%

00:28:00.520 of them

00:28:00.960 coincidentally

00:28:02.380 were doing

00:28:03.040 better with

00:28:04.280 the, let's

00:28:05.080 say, social

00:28:05.600 distancing, at

00:28:07.000 about the same

00:28:07.760 time they were

00:28:08.500 also saying,

00:28:09.160 hey, why don't

00:28:09.600 we use this

00:28:10.160 hydroxychloroquine,

00:28:11.540 you could draw

00:28:12.260 the chart, and

00:28:13.440 it would look

00:28:13.820 like 25%

00:28:16.060 of the

00:28:16.360 countries

00:28:16.800 coincidentally

00:28:18.180 lined up.

00:28:19.960 You've got

00:28:20.560 something that

00:28:21.080 looks like a

00:28:21.600 correlation.

00:28:22.180 It's like, hey,

00:28:23.240 at about the

00:28:23.880 same time they

00:28:24.560 did this

00:28:24.940 hydroxychloroquine,

00:28:26.080 things got

00:28:26.540 really good on

00:28:27.240 their curve.

00:28:28.800 And then you

00:28:29.260 look at it and

00:28:29.800 you say, well,

00:28:31.520 but there were

00:28:32.320 lots of countries

00:28:33.000 that were having

00:28:33.520 that same curve

00:28:34.320 thing.

00:28:35.600 A quarter of

00:28:36.500 them lined up

00:28:37.200 with your

00:28:37.580 hypothesis, and

00:28:38.740 those are the

00:28:39.140 ones that ended

00:28:39.680 up on the

00:28:40.180 chart.

00:28:41.260 75% of them

00:28:42.540 you either

00:28:42.920 didn't know

00:28:43.600 or didn't

00:28:44.220 line up, and

00:28:45.420 so they're

00:28:45.720 not on the

00:28:46.200 chart.

00:28:47.300 Now, I don't

00:28:48.080 know if I'm

00:28:48.480 explaining what

00:28:49.200 happened in

00:28:49.800 this specific

00:28:50.420 case.

00:28:50.940 What I'm

00:28:51.180 trying to do

00:28:51.680 is open your

00:28:52.420 mind to the

00:28:54.380 understanding that

00:28:56.100 that chart has

00:28:57.160 no credibility

00:28:58.380 whatsoever.

00:28:59.700 And when you

00:29:00.020 look into who

00:29:00.720 produced it, who

00:29:01.580 is the original

00:29:02.140 source, how they

00:29:03.540 put it together,

00:29:04.320 you find mumbo

00:29:05.500 jumbo and

00:29:06.140 bullshit that is

00:29:07.540 clearly somebody

00:29:08.560 trying to hide

00:29:09.220 their identity, so

00:29:10.780 you don't even

00:29:11.220 know where it

00:29:11.620 came from.

00:29:12.620 They use

00:29:13.060 words like

00:29:13.720 it's randomized

00:29:14.440 when it's

00:29:15.440 not, which

00:29:16.740 is a big

00:29:17.160 red flag, and

00:29:19.020 the whole

00:29:20.340 thing looks

00:29:20.960 super sketchy

00:29:22.180 to the point

00:29:23.040 where the

00:29:23.640 chart producers

00:29:24.800 look more

00:29:25.840 like foreign 0.93

00:29:26.560 interference than

00:29:28.280 they do like

00:29:29.080 good helpers who

00:29:30.260 just want to

00:29:30.740 be anonymous.

00:29:33.500 Now, does

00:29:35.240 that mean that

00:29:36.220 hydroxychloroquine

00:29:37.220 doesn't work?

00:29:38.040 It does not.

00:29:38.980 I'm still at a

00:29:39.600 30% chance it

00:29:40.640 works.

00:29:41.400 I'm just saying

00:29:42.040 that what it

00:29:42.660 would take to

00:29:43.480 convince me has

00:29:44.400 never happened.

00:29:45.860 So that chart,

00:29:47.100 complete bullshit.

00:29:49.020 The, all the

00:29:50.180 56 studies that

00:29:51.460 are not the

00:29:52.440 right kind, not

00:29:55.040 confirming anything.

00:29:57.380 The studies

00:29:57.980 confirming it

00:29:58.720 doesn't work,

00:29:59.740 complete bullshit.

00:30:00.620 They studied the

00:30:01.220 wrong stuff.

00:30:02.280 So, there's a

00:30:04.320 weird situation

00:30:05.040 here in which,

00:30:05.880 why is it

00:30:07.300 that studying

00:30:08.000 the right thing

00:30:08.780 is so darn

00:30:09.440 hard?

00:30:10.900 I mean, we've

00:30:11.720 had several

00:30:12.720 full month

00:30:14.300 periods that

00:30:15.040 have passed.

00:30:15.640 It's been five

00:30:16.220 months since the

00:30:16.860 beginning, and

00:30:17.820 from the very

00:30:18.340 beginning we were

00:30:19.020 talking about this

00:30:19.720 drug.

00:30:20.300 Are you telling

00:30:20.760 me you can't do

00:30:21.540 a one-month

00:30:22.280 trial in five

00:30:23.940 months when it's

00:30:25.480 an emergency?

00:30:26.220 Nobody pulled

00:30:27.220 that off?

00:30:29.580 I'm just not

00:30:30.480 buying it.

00:30:31.300 But, here's the

00:30:32.480 other challenge I

00:30:33.260 had.

00:30:33.960 I have not yet

00:30:34.800 heard of one

00:30:35.820 case anywhere

00:30:37.380 in the world

00:30:38.140 in which somebody

00:30:39.960 got the drug

00:30:40.800 early and then

00:30:42.300 later died.

00:30:43.720 Now, that

00:30:44.240 doesn't mean it

00:30:44.780 didn't happen.

00:30:46.420 But, why have I

00:30:47.260 never heard of

00:30:47.780 one?

00:30:49.020 Couldn't I get

00:30:50.340 one anecdote?

00:30:52.220 One anecdote

00:30:53.160 of somebody who

00:30:54.480 took it at the

00:30:55.220 right time,

00:30:55.880 didn't have some

00:30:56.620 horrible, obvious

00:30:58.160 comorbidity,

00:30:59.820 and then went

00:31:00.300 on to die?

00:31:00.800 If your fake

00:31:02.500 news really

00:31:03.240 wants to

00:31:03.720 embarrass the

00:31:04.660 president, give

00:31:05.980 me some of

00:31:06.400 those anecdotes.

00:31:07.620 Sure.

00:31:08.420 I'll know it's

00:31:09.000 just anecdotes

00:31:09.760 and it won't

00:31:10.160 really mean

00:31:10.580 anything, because

00:31:11.340 even the

00:31:12.500 proponents don't

00:31:13.300 say it saves

00:31:13.900 every person in

00:31:14.720 every case.

00:31:15.600 They're just

00:31:16.160 saying that's

00:31:16.740 an amazing

00:31:17.160 difference.

00:31:18.600 But just

00:31:19.020 show me one

00:31:20.300 anecdote of

00:31:21.380 somebody who

00:31:21.840 took it and

00:31:22.300 died anyway.

00:31:23.740 You can't

00:31:24.060 find one?

00:31:25.300 You can't

00:31:25.620 find any?

00:31:26.880 Must be one

00:31:27.720 out there

00:31:28.000 somewhere.

00:31:29.240 All right.

00:31:31.020 Let's talk

00:31:31.720 about Sweden.

00:31:35.100 Let me check

00:31:35.960 the news on

00:31:36.540 Sweden.

00:31:37.300 Let's see.

00:31:37.800 Here's a story

00:31:38.460 in which the

00:31:40.300 person writing

00:31:41.140 about it says

00:31:41.820 it's absolutely

00:31:42.900 true that

00:31:43.560 Sweden did the 0.66

00:31:44.260 right thing.

00:31:45.220 Okay, scroll

00:31:45.780 down.

00:31:46.240 Here's another

00:31:46.680 news story that

00:31:47.980 says they've

00:31:48.760 looked at

00:31:49.100 Sweden and they 0.65

00:31:50.120 did all the

00:31:50.620 wrong things.

00:31:51.280 They sure

00:31:51.600 lost.

00:31:54.320 Really nobody

00:31:55.160 knows what's

00:31:55.700 going on.

00:31:56.420 But let me

00:31:56.780 give you some

00:31:57.600 insight as to

00:31:58.580 how bad the

00:31:59.340 analysis of

00:32:00.200 Sweden is.

00:32:01.380 Check me on

00:32:02.040 my math, but

00:32:03.840 see if I'm in

00:32:04.460 the neighborhood

00:32:04.900 here.

00:32:05.440 All right.

00:32:06.520 So Sweden

00:32:07.800 has a population

00:32:09.040 of 10 million.

00:32:11.040 To reach herd

00:32:12.160 immunity, and

00:32:12.980 we'll talk about

00:32:13.780 whether this

00:32:14.400 number is too

00:32:15.740 high or not,

00:32:17.020 let's say 60%

00:32:18.580 infection would

00:32:20.640 get you to

00:32:21.400 herd immunity.

00:32:23.100 So if 6

00:32:24.720 million, which

00:32:26.120 would be 60%

00:32:27.140 of their total

00:32:27.660 population, if

00:32:28.980 6 million people

00:32:29.960 had it already,

00:32:32.320 and that's

00:32:32.820 what's happening

00:32:33.360 because Sweden

00:32:34.400 seems to be

00:32:34.980 doing well, and

00:32:36.320 the thought is

00:32:36.920 they've reached

00:32:37.480 some kind of

00:32:38.180 herd immunity.

00:32:39.560 And last I

00:32:42.400 checked, the

00:32:43.080 fatality rate

00:32:43.920 was 3.75%.

00:32:46.300 So 3.75% of

00:32:49.000 people who get

00:32:49.540 it would die.

00:32:51.240 That includes

00:32:51.780 elderly, etc.

00:32:53.420 So that would

00:32:54.280 imply that for

00:32:55.740 Sweden to be at

00:32:56.900 60% herd

00:32:59.180 immunity, which

00:33:00.540 would be enough,

00:33:01.600 that they would

00:33:02.300 have 225,000

00:33:04.320 deaths.

00:33:06.640 We'll get to

00:33:07.460 those who are

00:33:07.960 screaming at me in

00:33:08.780 the comments that

00:33:09.560 it would be much

00:33:10.440 less.

00:33:10.740 So if Sweden 0.60

00:33:13.680 got to herd

00:33:14.420 immunity at

00:33:15.400 the 60% 0.95

00:33:16.240 level, which

00:33:17.220 is what most

00:33:18.100 experts say you

00:33:19.200 need to get

00:33:19.660 to, we

00:33:20.580 would have

00:33:20.900 seen 225,000

00:33:22.940 deaths.

00:33:23.900 What's the

00:33:24.480 actual number?

00:33:26.240 Six.

00:33:28.160 Right.

00:33:28.720 So if you

00:33:29.200 think that

00:33:30.200 Sweden reached

00:33:31.160 that 60% 0.64

00:33:33.280 of herd

00:33:33.600 immunity,

00:33:34.700 you're off

00:33:35.740 by a lot

00:33:36.440 because they

00:33:37.260 would have

00:33:37.560 225,000

00:33:38.900 deaths, not

00:33:40.320 6,000.

00:33:42.320 So they're

00:33:43.120 nowhere near

00:33:43.740 anything like

00:33:44.500 traditional herd

00:33:45.920 immunity.

00:33:46.440 But let's get

00:33:47.100 to the second

00:33:47.520 part.

00:33:48.480 So there are

00:33:49.040 smart people

00:33:49.760 arguing that

00:33:50.780 we don't need

00:33:51.820 to get anywhere

00:33:52.620 near 60%.

00:33:53.760 In fact, the

00:33:54.640 number could be

00:33:55.240 as low as

00:33:56.040 35%.

00:33:57.820 It could be

00:33:58.780 20%.

00:34:00.880 And the

00:34:01.820 reason being

00:34:02.560 that's offered

00:34:03.780 is that there

00:34:05.200 are so many

00:34:05.680 people who have

00:34:06.200 had some

00:34:06.660 related kind

00:34:07.740 of coronavirus

00:34:08.520 that has

00:34:09.860 some markers

00:34:10.720 that are

00:34:11.240 similar enough

00:34:12.480 that your

00:34:13.580 body is

00:34:14.340 sort of

00:34:15.000 prepped for

00:34:15.960 it.

00:34:16.400 But it

00:34:17.040 wouldn't show

00:34:17.620 up in

00:34:18.240 specific

00:34:19.120 immunity.

00:34:20.160 So if you

00:34:20.560 tested somebody

00:34:21.820 who was

00:34:22.920 resistant to

00:34:24.040 it because

00:34:24.620 of other

00:34:25.220 exposures,

00:34:26.460 you wouldn't

00:34:27.260 be able to

00:34:27.660 test for it.

00:34:29.000 They would

00:34:29.620 just have

00:34:29.960 some markers

00:34:30.580 but not

00:34:31.200 immunity per

00:34:32.020 se, but

00:34:33.340 that in

00:34:33.720 reality they

00:34:35.360 just wouldn't

00:34:35.780 get it.

00:34:36.740 So that you

00:34:37.540 would have

00:34:37.820 to include

00:34:39.280 them and

00:34:40.280 then if you

00:34:40.820 did, the

00:34:41.740 real herd

00:34:42.680 immunity could

00:34:43.360 be closer to

00:34:44.140 20% or

00:34:45.120 something.

00:34:46.420 But

00:34:46.680 Sweden's still

00:34:49.360 more at

00:34:49.920 like 3%.

00:34:52.320 So even if

00:34:54.120 you went all

00:34:54.640 the way down

00:34:55.040 to say 20%

00:34:56.200 gives you

00:34:56.680 herd immunity,

00:34:58.260 Sweden's not 0.98

00:34:58.860 even close to

00:34:59.500 that.

00:35:00.420 They're nowhere

00:35:00.880 close.

00:35:02.020 They're not

00:35:02.360 even in

00:35:02.960 dynamiting

00:35:06.140 distance from

00:35:07.340 even the

00:35:07.880 lowest 20%

00:35:09.760 herd immunity.

00:35:11.160 But yet they

00:35:11.960 seem to be

00:35:12.440 doing okay.

00:35:14.100 What's going

00:35:14.700 on?

00:35:15.140 And the

00:35:15.360 answer is we

00:35:15.780 don't know.

00:35:16.820 We don't

00:35:17.140 know.

00:35:17.800 We don't

00:35:18.620 know.

00:35:19.340 We don't

00:35:19.980 know if

00:35:20.260 they're doing

00:35:20.600 well.

00:35:21.420 We don't

00:35:21.700 know why

00:35:23.700 they're doing

00:35:24.100 what they're

00:35:24.420 doing.

00:35:25.220 But there's

00:35:25.820 some other

00:35:26.140 big differences

00:35:26.720 in Sweden

00:35:27.400 which are

00:35:27.900 worth noting.

00:35:28.820 One is

00:35:29.380 that we

00:35:29.720 talk about

00:35:30.240 them not

00:35:31.400 closing their

00:35:32.080 economy but

00:35:32.880 that's not

00:35:33.360 exactly what

00:35:34.040 happened.

00:35:35.000 The voluntary

00:35:36.400 social distancing

00:35:37.620 etc.

00:35:38.880 were pretty

00:35:40.020 well maintained

00:35:41.660 so they

00:35:43.280 weren't that

00:35:43.900 different from

00:35:44.580 somebody who

00:35:45.040 closed their

00:35:45.560 economy.

00:35:46.480 They did

00:35:46.840 have a better

00:35:47.320 economic outcome

00:35:48.340 that they

00:35:49.840 took a hit

00:35:50.920 too but not

00:35:51.580 as bad as

00:35:52.200 other countries.

00:35:54.220 Then you'd

00:35:54.680 also have to

00:35:55.260 ask yourself

00:35:55.880 why is it

00:35:57.240 that Sweden

00:35:57.880 is doing

00:35:59.040 so much

00:35:59.700 better than

00:36:00.740 the UK?

00:36:03.380 Why is

00:36:04.240 Sweden doing

00:36:04.840 so much

00:36:05.540 better than

00:36:06.420 the UK?

00:36:07.680 Because if

00:36:08.800 this herd

00:36:09.700 immunity thing

00:36:10.540 is really

00:36:11.240 really really

00:36:12.380 low and

00:36:13.320 Sweden somehow

00:36:14.200 hit it,

00:36:15.360 how did the

00:36:16.240 UK zoom right

00:36:17.320 past it by

00:36:18.060 a lot?

00:36:19.500 So why would

00:36:20.160 herd immunity

00:36:20.780 in Sweden

00:36:21.400 be down here

00:36:22.320 but herd

00:36:23.200 immunity in

00:36:23.840 the UK

00:36:24.160 would be up

00:36:24.720 here?

00:36:24.940 doesn't

00:36:27.280 work does

00:36:27.860 it right?

00:36:28.480 Because unless

00:36:29.440 there's something

00:36:29.920 genetic or

00:36:30.780 something about

00:36:31.280 where they

00:36:31.640 live and

00:36:32.280 what they've

00:36:33.060 been exposed

00:36:33.600 to in the

00:36:34.040 past I

00:36:35.020 suppose but

00:36:36.220 it seems

00:36:36.560 inconsistent to

00:36:37.480 me that

00:36:39.080 anybody would

00:36:39.840 have a higher

00:36:40.840 death rate than

00:36:41.620 anybody else

00:36:42.440 if Sweden is

00:36:44.020 hitting herd

00:36:44.460 immunity.

00:36:45.100 If you can get

00:36:46.080 herd immunity at

00:36:47.020 that lower

00:36:47.800 level of

00:36:48.400 death wouldn't

00:36:50.480 everybody be

00:36:51.140 there?

00:36:51.460 or just

00:36:53.060 about there?

00:36:54.440 I don't

00:36:54.800 know.

00:36:58.800 And then

00:36:59.640 it has been

00:37:00.680 mentioned that

00:37:01.280 the Swedes

00:37:01.960 have a different

00:37:02.420 lifestyle, they

00:37:03.300 might spend

00:37:03.760 more time

00:37:04.180 alone naturally

00:37:05.160 and that they

00:37:06.720 might be

00:37:07.100 healthier.

00:37:08.140 They do

00:37:08.720 better on

00:37:09.140 vitamin D

00:37:09.760 because they

00:37:11.040 supplement because

00:37:12.040 they don't get

00:37:12.540 enough sun so

00:37:13.380 they supplement

00:37:13.980 which might

00:37:14.560 make a

00:37:14.880 difference and

00:37:16.380 apparently they

00:37:17.400 have much

00:37:18.220 lower rates

00:37:19.140 of diabetes.

00:37:22.820 I don't know

00:37:23.200 if that's true.

00:37:24.360 But if you

00:37:25.040 assume that the

00:37:26.000 Swedes have a 0.95

00:37:26.720 low African 1.00

00:37:28.040 American community

00:37:29.060 that alone would

00:37:30.860 put their death

00:37:31.460 rate lower.

00:37:32.400 Would it not?

00:37:33.820 Because the

00:37:34.680 African American

00:37:35.440 community in

00:37:37.180 well no if it

00:37:38.900 were in Sweden

00:37:39.900 it would be

00:37:40.600 just the black 0.74

00:37:42.720 or the African 0.88

00:37:44.020 Sweden community

00:37:44.900 I guess.

00:37:46.020 So the fact

00:37:47.140 that we have a

00:37:47.760 larger minority

00:37:48.680 population who

00:37:49.760 are tragically

00:37:50.620 more susceptible

00:37:51.480 to it.

00:37:52.840 That's part of

00:37:53.300 the story too.

00:37:54.460 So maybe Sweden

00:37:55.260 is just being

00:37:55.940 Sweden and

00:37:56.700 there's nothing

00:37:58.620 magic happening

00:37:59.460 there.

00:38:00.340 Alright so

00:38:01.260 here's what's

00:38:01.840 not credible so

00:38:02.840 far.

00:38:03.640 The studies

00:38:04.280 which proclaim

00:38:05.200 they have

00:38:05.720 debunked

00:38:06.620 hydroxychloroquine

00:38:07.800 are not credible.

00:38:09.480 Even the RPT

00:38:10.400 ones because they

00:38:11.120 studied the wrong

00:38:11.860 thing.

00:38:12.700 Studied it not

00:38:13.560 with zinc.

00:38:14.220 They studied it

00:38:14.920 on deathly ill

00:38:15.860 people when it's

00:38:16.600 too late.

00:38:17.060 So there's no

00:38:18.820 good study that

00:38:19.720 shows it doesn't

00:38:20.420 work.

00:38:21.340 Likewise there's

00:38:22.320 no high quality

00:38:23.880 gold standard that

00:38:25.140 shows it does

00:38:25.700 work.

00:38:27.000 And the country

00:38:28.800 comparisons seem

00:38:29.900 completely garbage

00:38:30.920 and I forgot to

00:38:32.400 mention this but

00:38:33.080 nobody really knows

00:38:34.400 what different

00:38:35.400 countries are doing

00:38:36.200 with hydroxychloroquine.

00:38:38.420 Nobody really

00:38:39.000 knows because it's

00:38:40.120 up to the doctors.

00:38:41.540 We don't know if

00:38:42.200 the doctors are

00:38:42.900 really using it.

00:38:43.880 Do they really

00:38:44.280 have supply?

00:38:45.460 How are they

00:38:46.300 using it?

00:38:47.240 Kind of don't

00:38:47.760 know.

00:38:48.380 So if you think

00:38:48.960 you can compare

00:38:49.680 countries good

00:38:51.300 luck with that

00:38:51.900 because you'd

00:38:52.520 have to talk to

00:38:53.220 a lot of

00:38:53.680 doctors in

00:38:54.220 every country

00:38:54.700 to get some

00:38:55.240 kind of a

00:38:56.020 representative

00:38:56.780 sample.

00:38:58.300 All right.

00:39:00.040 So here's what

00:39:01.020 I think is our

00:39:01.720 best hope at

00:39:02.520 this point.

00:39:04.260 That the

00:39:05.140 blood serum

00:39:06.040 antibody

00:39:07.060 treatment will

00:39:09.300 become a

00:39:09.900 commercial

00:39:10.320 market.

00:39:10.800 that is our

00:39:14.120 best hope I

00:39:14.940 think.

00:39:15.460 Now my

00:39:16.040 understanding is

00:39:16.780 that if you

00:39:17.160 take the blood

00:39:17.720 from somebody

00:39:18.300 who's had it

00:39:19.060 and you find

00:39:20.880 out that you've

00:39:21.480 got the better

00:39:22.800 blood.

00:39:23.500 Some blood is

00:39:24.520 better than

00:39:24.880 others for the

00:39:25.480 antibodies.

00:39:26.760 And you put

00:39:27.760 those antibodies

00:39:28.480 in somebody it

00:39:29.420 will confer some

00:39:30.420 immunity in them

00:39:31.640 but it might not

00:39:32.640 last forever.

00:39:34.060 But it also

00:39:34.760 doesn't need to.

00:39:36.060 I don't think it

00:39:36.660 needs to last

00:39:37.200 forever.

00:39:37.480 And just to

00:39:39.200 give you an

00:39:39.600 idea of what

00:39:41.040 a commercial

00:39:41.880 market for this

00:39:42.720 would be as

00:39:43.320 opposed to just

00:39:43.980 working through

00:39:44.680 the normal

00:39:45.120 healthcare system.

00:39:46.300 If there were a

00:39:47.260 commercial market

00:39:48.140 where somebody

00:39:48.880 could offer me

00:39:49.700 right now

00:39:50.360 literally today

00:39:51.980 they could say

00:39:53.120 if you come

00:39:53.620 into my clinic

00:39:54.380 I've already

00:39:55.340 got some

00:39:55.940 antibodies that

00:39:57.220 I've harvested.

00:39:59.520 Put them in

00:40:00.100 your body.

00:40:01.360 It's safe

00:40:01.880 enough.

00:40:02.760 I would need

00:40:03.620 some evidence

00:40:04.520 that it's safe.

00:40:05.540 But it's safe

00:40:06.020 enough.

00:40:06.320 what would

00:40:07.140 you pay

00:40:07.620 for it?

00:40:09.220 And here's

00:40:09.680 my answer.

00:40:10.900 $5,000.

00:40:12.540 I would

00:40:13.260 personally

00:40:13.880 because I'm

00:40:15.300 rich

00:40:15.620 so you

00:40:17.940 don't need

00:40:18.440 to throw

00:40:18.900 that in

00:40:19.220 my face.

00:40:20.620 I'm rich

00:40:21.560 so I

00:40:22.520 would pay

00:40:22.840 $5,000

00:40:23.780 to get that

00:40:25.120 antibody

00:40:25.560 treatment.

00:40:26.660 Now why

00:40:26.980 would I

00:40:27.320 pay $5,000?

00:40:28.920 Two reasons.

00:40:30.480 One

00:40:30.860 it'd be

00:40:31.640 worth it.

00:40:32.580 If you

00:40:32.920 have the

00:40:33.280 money

00:40:33.480 it'd be

00:40:33.900 worth it.

00:40:34.900 But two

00:40:35.680 and this

00:40:36.440 is just

00:40:36.880 important

00:40:37.380 in my

00:40:37.900 particular

00:40:39.060 case

00:40:39.520 that's

00:40:40.520 what makes

00:40:40.940 it a

00:40:41.200 market.

00:40:42.760 When the

00:40:43.480 dumb rich

00:40:44.280 overpay

00:40:45.200 and that's

00:40:46.220 actually a

00:40:46.700 market segment

00:40:47.380 if you've

00:40:48.620 ever worked

00:40:49.100 in corporate

00:40:49.580 America

00:40:50.000 you know

00:40:50.900 that the

00:40:51.300 dumb rich

00:40:51.920 are actually

00:40:52.580 a market

00:40:53.000 segment.

00:40:53.960 The people

00:40:54.300 who will

00:40:54.620 buy the

00:40:55.040 new

00:40:55.240 expensive

00:40:55.720 thing

00:40:56.080 regardless

00:40:56.520 of price

00:40:57.260 because they

00:40:58.340 want the 0.55

00:40:58.680 new

00:40:58.840 expensive

00:40:59.240 thing.

00:41:00.200 So you

00:41:00.540 sell it

00:41:00.920 to the

00:41:01.220 dumb rich

00:41:01.780 first

00:41:02.200 because they'll

00:41:02.640 buy it

00:41:03.000 no matter

00:41:03.420 what

00:41:03.840 if it's

00:41:05.520 expensive

00:41:05.940 and good

00:41:06.980 in some

00:41:07.340 way.

00:41:08.460 And then

00:41:08.680 that drives

00:41:09.180 the price

00:41:09.540 down

00:41:09.840 eventually

00:41:10.360 so that

00:41:11.840 people who

00:41:12.340 can afford

00:41:12.940 it would

00:41:13.960 be able

00:41:14.240 to afford

00:41:14.680 it.

00:41:15.420 So if it

00:41:16.060 came out

00:41:16.420 today and

00:41:17.180 they said

00:41:17.600 it's going

00:41:18.040 to be

00:41:18.200 $5,000

00:41:18.860 for one

00:41:19.560 treatment

00:41:19.880 and we

00:41:20.240 don't even

00:41:20.560 know how

00:41:21.020 long it'll

00:41:21.460 last

00:41:21.780 I would

00:41:22.540 say

00:41:22.740 first

00:41:23.520 partly for

00:41:26.280 the immunity

00:41:26.760 and partly

00:41:29.140 to help drive

00:41:29.820 down the price

00:41:30.540 because the

00:41:31.200 more money

00:41:31.660 we shovel

00:41:32.140 at it

00:41:32.580 the more

00:41:33.300 they can

00:41:33.700 lower the

00:41:34.220 price so

00:41:34.820 that those

00:41:35.240 of you

00:41:35.560 who can't

00:41:36.600 afford it

00:41:37.060 would be

00:41:37.500 able to.

00:41:38.060 And I

00:41:38.240 mean that

00:41:38.540 seriously.

00:41:39.480 I would be

00:41:40.280 in line

00:41:40.980 in one

00:41:41.800 minute

00:41:42.140 because it

00:41:43.180 would be

00:41:43.420 part of a

00:41:44.000 larger good

00:41:44.800 I think.

00:41:45.440 Plus it

00:41:45.920 might work

00:41:46.720 for me

00:41:47.020 too.

00:41:50.100 So in

00:41:50.780 my opinion

00:41:51.300 that plus

00:41:52.580 maybe rapid

00:41:53.980 testing are

00:41:54.780 the two

00:41:55.080 things that

00:41:56.360 could help

00:41:56.780 us the

00:41:57.400 most.

00:41:58.380 You probably

00:41:58.780 need both.

00:41:59.400 the rapid

00:42:00.680 testing meaning

00:42:01.600 if we could

00:42:02.240 get FDA

00:42:02.860 approval for

00:42:03.680 the little

00:42:04.520 paper tests

00:42:05.440 which is

00:42:06.360 basically a

00:42:06.940 spit test

00:42:07.560 you can do

00:42:08.020 it at home

00:42:08.520 it won't

00:42:09.460 pick up

00:42:10.000 if you just

00:42:11.340 got the

00:42:11.760 virus it

00:42:12.420 won't pick

00:42:12.820 it up

00:42:13.160 but if

00:42:14.040 you're already

00:42:14.500 infectious it

00:42:15.380 will pick

00:42:15.760 it up

00:42:16.100 quite reliably

00:42:17.220 and so

00:42:18.420 that's enough

00:42:19.140 given that it

00:42:20.120 might only cost

00:42:20.720 a dollar to

00:42:21.340 do the test

00:42:21.880 that's enough

00:42:22.760 to really

00:42:23.500 really push

00:42:24.320 on a bunch

00:42:24.860 of tests.

00:42:25.980 People could

00:42:26.620 test themselves

00:42:27.260 twice a day

00:42:27.960 and it wouldn't

00:42:28.340 be too

00:42:28.660 expensive.

00:42:29.400 And so

00:42:32.540 I'm putting

00:42:33.360 the odds

00:42:33.940 of the

00:42:34.340 vaccine

00:42:34.980 making the

00:42:35.920 difference

00:42:36.420 at odds

00:42:40.040 of the

00:42:40.300 vaccine

00:42:40.780 making all

00:42:41.480 the difference

00:42:42.160 30%.

00:42:44.040 30%

00:42:45.880 that the

00:42:46.320 vaccine is

00:42:46.980 the answer.

00:42:48.100 The likely

00:42:49.300 answer is

00:42:50.120 a war

00:42:51.840 on every

00:42:52.340 front

00:42:52.700 where we're

00:42:53.560 just doing

00:42:53.960 everything that

00:42:54.760 works

00:42:55.100 and I

00:42:56.400 think the

00:42:56.940 blood

00:42:58.540 serum

00:42:58.900 thing

00:42:59.280 is

00:42:59.740 clearly

00:43:00.200 going to

00:43:00.480 be in

00:43:00.740 that

00:43:00.920 category.

00:43:01.740 That's

00:43:02.080 the one

00:43:02.360 thing

00:43:02.580 nobody

00:43:02.940 doubts

00:43:03.360 will

00:43:03.620 work.

00:43:05.120 I don't

00:43:05.640 think there's

00:43:06.080 anybody

00:43:06.400 smart

00:43:07.020 who says

00:43:08.280 that the

00:43:08.840 blood serum

00:43:11.160 thing

00:43:11.520 wouldn't

00:43:12.040 work.

00:43:12.660 It just

00:43:13.020 might be

00:43:13.360 hard to

00:43:13.740 scale it

00:43:14.260 up.

00:43:14.480 But I

00:43:14.800 think we

00:43:15.100 can figure

00:43:15.480 that out

00:43:15.960 if people

00:43:16.480 like me

00:43:16.940 are willing

00:43:17.820 to overpay

00:43:18.460 for the

00:43:18.760 service.

00:43:20.860 I'm seeing

00:43:21.620 percentages go

00:43:22.540 by but I

00:43:22.980 don't know

00:43:23.160 what you're

00:43:23.520 speaking about.

00:43:28.620 A game

00:43:29.480 changer is

00:43:30.120 not 30%.

00:43:31.660 I think

00:43:32.620 there's just

00:43:33.040 a 30%

00:43:33.780 chance that

00:43:34.400 the virus

00:43:35.920 vaccinations

00:43:37.340 will make

00:43:37.980 all the

00:43:38.280 difference.

00:43:44.860 Somebody

00:43:45.380 says the

00:43:45.840 vaccine will

00:43:46.400 be a

00:43:46.620 home run.

00:43:47.100 I like

00:43:47.560 your

00:43:47.780 optimism.

00:43:48.460 But keep

00:43:50.640 in mind

00:43:51.160 that we

00:43:52.240 haven't been

00:43:52.880 successful

00:43:53.420 with these

00:43:54.000 vaccines in

00:43:54.880 the past.

00:43:56.020 It would

00:43:56.400 be kind

00:43:56.740 of remarkable

00:43:57.280 if it

00:43:57.880 worked.

00:43:58.720 Even if

00:43:59.140 it works,

00:43:59.680 it might

00:43:59.920 only work

00:44:00.340 for 50%

00:44:02.540 of the

00:44:02.780 public.

00:44:03.500 That's

00:44:03.740 according

00:44:04.020 to Fauci.

00:44:05.320 Fauci is

00:44:06.000 warning us

00:44:06.600 that getting

00:44:07.720 the shot

00:44:08.440 doesn't mean

00:44:08.960 you're

00:44:09.160 immune.

00:44:10.000 It might

00:44:10.380 mean you're

00:44:10.860 more immune.

00:44:12.340 50%

00:44:13.440 of the

00:44:14.600 people,

00:44:15.040 maybe.

00:44:15.340 Something like

00:44:15.700 that.

00:44:15.920 monoclonal

00:44:19.200 antibodies.

00:44:20.040 I have a

00:44:20.360 big question

00:44:20.900 about why

00:44:21.660 we don't

00:44:22.940 know what's

00:44:23.420 going on

00:44:23.880 with that.

00:44:24.280 The idea

00:44:24.860 is you

00:44:25.160 take

00:44:25.400 somebody's

00:44:26.100 antibodies

00:44:26.680 from their

00:44:27.260 blood and

00:44:28.420 instead of

00:44:28.940 just making

00:44:29.660 them give

00:44:30.160 more and

00:44:30.540 more antibodies,

00:44:31.660 you clone

00:44:32.380 it in a

00:44:33.020 machine.

00:44:34.000 I don't know

00:44:34.660 whatever kind

00:44:35.880 of chemistry

00:44:36.360 you have to

00:44:36.800 do to do

00:44:37.220 that.

00:44:38.020 But I don't

00:44:38.560 know why

00:44:38.960 we're not

00:44:39.360 doing that

00:44:39.900 already.

00:44:40.320 So that

00:44:41.680 feels like

00:44:42.260 a big

00:44:42.540 black hole

00:44:43.300 of knowledge

00:44:45.020 where we

00:44:45.660 should really

00:44:46.140 know what's

00:44:46.840 going on

00:44:47.340 because that

00:44:47.800 could be

00:44:48.160 easily the

00:44:48.720 most promising

00:44:49.440 thing.

00:44:55.280 Ivermectin.

00:44:56.040 Yeah, I'm

00:44:56.360 reading about

00:44:56.860 ivermectin,

00:44:57.600 but I need

00:44:58.120 to figure out

00:44:59.200 what's going

00:44:59.640 on there.

00:45:03.600 All right.

00:45:05.620 A meth

00:45:06.140 house blew

00:45:06.720 up in

00:45:07.080 Baltimore,

00:45:07.640 somebody says.

00:45:08.700 How did I

00:45:09.220 miss that

00:45:09.640 story?

00:45:10.840 You have

00:45:11.080 flu shots.

00:45:11.780 Regular flu

00:45:12.280 shots don't 1.00

00:45:12.820 always work.

00:45:18.580 Feed your

00:45:19.280 mitochondria.

00:45:22.300 I like that

00:45:23.180 comment.

00:45:24.020 Feed your

00:45:24.440 mitochondria.

00:45:25.360 Look it up.

00:45:26.700 All right.

00:45:30.840 Are you

00:45:31.500 saying it

00:45:31.860 will be an

00:45:32.280 annual shot?

00:45:33.460 Oh, I

00:45:33.840 don't know.

00:45:35.280 I doubt it.

00:45:38.480 Your death

00:45:39.300 rate percent

00:45:39.900 seems high.

00:45:40.680 Yeah, you

00:45:41.580 should check

00:45:42.140 that.

00:45:43.000 Check my

00:45:43.700 death rate

00:45:44.660 estimates.

00:45:48.160 Because it

00:45:48.800 feels like

00:45:49.180 99% of the

00:45:50.200 people survive,

00:45:50.960 right?

00:45:51.360 I think the

00:45:52.100 three-point

00:45:53.880 whatever death

00:45:55.240 rate includes

00:45:56.560 people over

00:45:57.180 80, and

00:45:58.600 there are a

00:45:58.860 lot of

00:45:59.120 them.

00:45:59.240 somebody says

00:46:04.580 wrong, Scott.

00:46:05.620 Regeneron is

00:46:06.260 doing a trial

00:46:06.940 on antibodies.

00:46:08.320 They're doing a

00:46:08.920 trial on it, but

00:46:09.840 what part is

00:46:10.380 wrong?

00:46:12.080 Was there

00:46:12.580 something I

00:46:13.020 said that

00:46:13.440 violates the

00:46:14.440 fact that

00:46:14.860 there's a

00:46:15.180 company doing

00:46:15.680 a trial on

00:46:16.260 antibodies?

00:46:18.560 Dow is up.

00:46:20.400 All right,

00:46:21.000 that's all I

00:46:21.360 got for now.

00:46:21.920 I will talk

00:46:22.400 to you

00:46:22.940 later.

00:46:24.340 here.
