00:04:43.460 of coronavirus including one death the deceased patient was a resident of uh of california was on
00:04:52.780 a princess cruise ship that went from san francisco to mexico last month the boat's currently at sea
00:04:58.580 slated to return to san francisco soon however they're delaying the cruise ship's arrival
00:05:03.320 to give federal officials more time to prepare for that lax looks like one of the screeners has tested
00:05:10.860 positive one of the people who are screening you every day can you imagine having that job
00:05:15.260 seattle has confirmed 10 new cases today the latest coronavirus death is among the 10 cases confirmed
00:05:22.720 on wednesday the patient who died was described as a woman in her 90s who lived at life care that's a
00:05:30.500 nursing home in which multiple cases and deaths have been reported i can't even imagine what it is like
00:05:36.160 to be in that nursing home working at that nursing home being a patient there or having your parents
00:05:43.820 there can you imagine if your mom or dad was in this nursing home it's now quarantined so you can't go
00:05:49.820 and see them the staff is overwhelmed like nobody's answering the phone call it's it's like a it's a bad
00:05:59.740 scary movie and you know the the stats on coronavirus i i i want you to really try to understand what's
00:06:09.820 happening here coronavirus is spreading rapidly but it is not and i have to be really careful because i'm
00:06:20.120 in the target range i'm at the bottom end of the target range if you are under 18 nobody's nobody's died
00:06:29.360 yet somebody will but nobody's died yet under 18 in the world it generally doesn't affect kids
00:06:36.740 children and and uh adolescents they can get it but it's not that bad generally people who are around 60
00:06:49.340 are the ones who start to get it and they're the the hardest hit the ones who are dying the median age
00:06:57.440 is 80 so the median age of really being affected by it is 60 the median age of dying is 80 now with that
00:07:06.640 being said i don't want to lose my parents i don't want to lose anyway i i mean i know probably five
00:07:15.140 people off the top of my head that if this happens and they get it they probably will die
00:07:22.080 some of them are younger than i am by far but they're not healthy
00:07:29.700 so i want to be really careful that when we say oh you know it's just okay it's like the flu okay it
00:07:37.020 yeah but there are humans that are attached to that
00:07:40.560 and our hearts and our prayers and our thoughts go out to anybody who is struggling with this
00:07:47.420 stew just said he was reading something just um what was it a blogger yesterday last night
00:07:54.800 so yeah someone i follow on twitter that does you know election stats and such and just said um
00:08:01.980 uh if if you're the praying type pray for a person with a with a breathing tube currently down their
00:08:07.980 throat on their last leg suffering from this horrible virus um coronavirus sucks particularly when
00:08:13.680 it's threatening to kill members of your own family that's so sad i mean i can't imagine being
00:08:18.200 in i mean no and this is happening all over the place and you're right you might not be in the target
00:08:23.160 here but you will know somebody knows someone who is you're gonna know somebody now listen here's why
00:08:29.240 this is being uh this is getting to be to look like panic there's a couple of reasons and i'm gonna go
00:08:37.860 into what the government is doing economically that i don't understand um however when it comes to
00:08:47.760 hey we're gonna close schools we're gonna declare a state of emergency they want people to stop
00:08:54.480 traveling they want people to stay at home you know a lot of people don't have a choice because
00:09:00.980 they either don't get paid or their boss yells at them because they're sick all the time
00:09:05.580 anytime that anyone in this building comes in sick we all look at each other and go what are you
00:09:11.140 doing go home go home no i'm not that sick but you're gonna get us sick go home but people always
00:09:21.000 are like i'm gonna soldier on i'm gonna be fine i'm not that sick well it's not about you it's about
00:09:26.700 everybody else and that is the key on this one they want to try to stop people from getting it
00:09:33.020 so it doesn't spread throughout everywhere you don't want 70 percent of the world having this
00:09:40.180 even though the vast majority are not really going to have a problem from it it's not like any other
00:09:48.900 virus we have seen we don't think that you build up immunity so you just get sick and then what
00:09:56.080 the people we have to pray for are the people who are on the front lines of this the people who are
00:10:02.460 driving the ambulance the people who are in the hospital the nurses the doctors the firemen
00:10:06.920 this is why they're saying please stop buying the n95 mask please stop buying it because they need it
00:10:16.980 and as much as it might make you feel better they need it and there is a global shortage on this
00:10:26.000 you might feel better well i didn't get sick well yeah but maybe a nurse or a doctor did and either
00:10:32.780 couldn't perform and couldn't help really sick people or they died we are going to need every
00:10:40.560 doctor every nurse every fireman everybody on on duty the people who are getting it are the ones who
00:10:49.780 who are serving those who are serving those who are sick we need to keep them in our prayers and and help
00:10:56.620 them in any way that we can that's why italy is now banning all sports stadiums all sporting events are
00:11:04.240 can are going to continue but the fans won't be allowed to attend we're talking about now what is it the
00:11:11.360 um uh the ncaa tournaments this year they're now talking about the final four and all of the
00:11:19.160 tournaments leading up to it not happening with crowds just in empty stadiums that's amazing amazing
00:11:25.080 that's a historic it's happening and they've already done it in other countries where they're having
00:11:28.880 soccer matches with empty stadiums right i mean it's it's progressing pretty quickly down that road
00:11:33.440 yeah uh the dow has added almost 1200 points that was yesterday uh it went 1173 points
00:11:42.280 that is up almost five percent just yesterday um that comes after massive losses on tuesday
00:11:53.440 even though the fed said we're gonna cut the rate we're gonna cut the rate and then everybody freaked out
00:12:00.480 and panicked why is the fed doing that and i'm gonna give you some information on why we should
00:12:05.800 be questioning this then it surged yesterday it was up almost 1200 points and today what does it stand
00:12:13.100 now we're opening the opening bells in about 15 minutes what does it look like it's going to open
00:12:17.040 i'd say in between down five and seven hundred points which i mean it used to be something really
00:12:22.120 dramatic right and but after this last couple of weeks where it's been up a thousand and down a
00:12:25.880 thousand so many times it's hard to even put that in perspective anymore we now have the second new
00:12:31.460 york family infected according to governor cuomo uh one of the family's daughters tested negative the
00:12:38.540 governor said but the father of the family came in contact with the westchester attorney who had been
00:12:43.760 diagnosed earlier he says there's going to be dozens and dozens and dozens of people who are sick
00:12:49.880 united airlines has reduced flights in april they have announced that it's going to reduce its
00:12:55.700 domestic flight schedule by 10 those are the domestic flights 10 reduction and international
00:13:03.920 flights by 20 in april due to declining demand the employees are offering the option to voluntarily
00:13:12.360 apply for an unpaid leave of absence instituting also a hiring freeze and suspending the 2019 merit
00:13:19.860 salary increases until july this is why we are going to have trouble with the economy this is why the
00:13:28.320 dow is reacting you have the airline industry already taking globally what they project to be a 30 billion
00:13:38.520 dollar hit um and that's a problem that's a problem how many cruises we are i'm not going to talk about
00:13:48.460 this on the air until you can just follow if you're on our cruise just follow the directions that you are
00:13:56.300 getting in the mail i just cut something i think a day or two ago uh that should have gone out we are on top
00:14:03.220 of it we are uh we are going to have final decisions for you in the next few days um but this is there is a fine
00:14:14.160 line between panic uh and and uh insanity in the other direction you have to find that fine line
00:14:26.540 now a thousand people are in self-quarantine in new york yesterday the congress just approved 8.3
00:14:35.220 billion dollars in emergency funds now donald trump okayed what was it 2.5 billion for coronavirus 2.5
00:14:45.280 billion to put this into perspective barack obama was praised in i think 2009 2010 when he okayed a
00:14:55.720 billion dollars for swine flu okay well that's swine flu i didn't do anything swine flu had killed a
00:15:04.120 thousand people in the united states before the president did anything what is the dead here in
00:15:11.720 america eight a thousand people swine flu killed 10 000 americans and the president was praised for
00:15:21.580 giving a billion dollars after a thousand people had died this president gave 2.5 billion when no one
00:15:30.740 had died and congress just upped it to 8.3 billion now i am not complaining i'm just saying that's a lot
00:15:41.680 of money really early and another reason why people look at this and say well what is really going on
00:15:48.840 i mean if they're doing this why if they're saying it's nothing to worry about hospitals now are being
00:15:57.840 told by the president's coronavirus task force uh that they need to be more proactive in testing now
00:16:04.940 here's the problem if you think you have the coronavirus you go to the hospital first of all
00:16:11.140 alert the hospital call someone say i think i might have the corona virus what do i do don't just show up
00:16:20.660 in the emergency room if you think you have it call them in advance if you're going to call an ambulance
00:16:31.020 let them know in advance the kirkland fire department now has a group of their firefighters
00:16:38.320 that have to be quarantined and they can't do any emergency runs because when that first patient
00:16:45.260 was called no one said we might have coronavirus they didn't know but now we do if you think you have
00:16:53.680 it call in advance so you are not exposing everyone else possibly to this people are being told just
00:17:04.180 self-isolate this is one of the reasons why um they are talking about canceling events etc etc because
00:17:14.360 maybe you shouldn't go to church is there a way to watch church um you know at home is there a way to
00:17:22.240 do church at home do you have to go to the movies this weekend this is going to hurt everything and
00:17:31.060 everybody but they're doing it so it doesn't spread as fast the best thing that everyone can do is
00:17:38.540 isolate themselves as much as possible it will stop this from growing out of control it it is less at
00:17:47.340 this point about the number of people that will die as it will be about the number of people that
00:17:53.760 are infected because it will overwhelm the system and we all know cloward and piven what happens when
00:18:00.980 you overwhelm the system all right here's a few things that you don't need in your life you don't need
00:18:06.920 a hole in your head you don't need you know a lollipop that was uh dropped on an airport floor

00:26:40.460 the virus is that bad in that country because they're doing things that just don't help you
00:26:46.000 think yeah that that doesn't help that's not a good idea um there is a story today uh
00:26:51.440 a uh a woman called the police for help uh because she has been she was locked in a bathroom
00:26:59.640 took out it took place after a man found out that his wife had met with a chinese woman who had been
00:27:06.200 to italy recently the um the man claimed that he acted on the advice of a medic and he chased her into
00:27:15.400 the bathroom and then locked her in the bathroom now i'm not sure that that doctor quote unquote he was
00:27:23.200 consulting with uh actually said that uh but the woman has not filed any charges against her husband
00:27:30.780 maybe she should uh in in iran they're now saying that anybody who is hoarding
00:27:38.740 may face the death penalty wow okay wow hoarding medical commodities in the current circumstances
00:27:49.620 playing with the lives of people and cannot be forgiven by any means so so if you're already in
00:27:56.800 jail don't worry they're gonna let you out but if you hoard a surgical mask you could be executed
00:28:05.580 and what qualifies as hoarding uh if you're stocking up on certain items you know just in case for an
00:28:12.200 emergency is that is that hoarding isn't that exactly what they did in germany yeah all of the
00:28:17.080 people who had been prepared yep all of a sudden were called hoarders uh and they got in trouble with
00:28:24.460 the government so i don't i don't know i don't know i even know i know i said last week that
00:28:29.640 uh i have a surgical kit uh i went as far as years ago making sure that i had a at-home surgical kit
00:28:40.500 by the way it does not come with a manual i had to buy that one separately you know how to remove
00:28:48.140 you know an appendix i don't know i bought the book and the kit just in case you had to do it to
00:28:56.040 you or somebody in your family well i don't think i would be doing it to me i would hope not
00:29:00.600 but i don't know who i would want in my family hey rafe yeah come here man i got a really bad pain
00:29:06.100 in my side cut me open and take that out will you this is an interesting conversation though who
00:29:09.900 would you pick to do the surgery tanya you'd pick tanya yeah even if it is even if it is tanya
00:29:15.660 who is sick you should do this honey because i feel like she probably wants to kill you for
00:29:21.620 multiple reasons so putting you under and and doing a surgery we haven't figured out how to
00:29:26.960 put people under yet no probably jack daniels jack daniels will be the way to do it will be the way
00:29:33.980 to do it drink until you pass out then the surgery starts yeah can you imagine that oh man so i guess
00:29:39.880 i'm hoarding you know surgical supplies i guess i don't i don't really know uh here are the really
00:29:46.120 bad stories uh out of the coronavirus baby yoda is being delayed no no no we may not make it because
00:29:53.100 no don't you do it till at least december right they say it may not if something doesn't change
00:29:59.080 soon it may not even make it for christmas oh no one of our producers bought tickets to
00:30:05.480 the james bond movie that was coming out uh-huh and he daniel craig i guess is hosting snl schedules
00:30:12.700 host snl this weekend or whatever for the launch yeah and now they moved to november yeah i'm really
00:30:17.800 upset this was your big thing really i don't care if my family dies it's the james bond movie the james
00:30:24.640 movie i'm a huge daniel craig fan yeah i love i think he is a great actor and i think yeah i'm gonna
00:30:31.180 say it sean connery you have been bumped off daniel craig is the best james bond we've ever had
00:30:38.960 by far and this is his last one and you're moving it no better than timothy dalton yeah
00:30:47.000 timothy dalton yes okay should we talk george lasenby here for a second who lasenby yeah yeah
00:30:54.560 that's his name i think he did one he did one now dalton did a few right he did three or three maybe
00:31:00.780 maybe not a lot two or three yeah but lasenby only did one if i remember i don't even know i don't
00:31:06.300 think i've ever heard the name george lasenby what did what kind of bond fan doesn't know all
00:31:10.660 the bonds well i knew timothy dalton i didn't know george lasenby because that was i think 60s he did
00:31:17.980 when he did it he did one movie on her majesty's secret service 1969 okay one oh i always thought
00:31:24.500 that was great craig i never had not craig uh uh connery i'd never seen that one connery only did the
00:31:31.780 first couple right oh listen to this why did george lasenby only do one bond movie george lasenby
00:31:37.520 had a bad manager who advised him to not do any more bonds because it was never going to last
00:31:41.520 oh my god that's true that's amazing george lasenby right now is like
00:31:47.020 i'm praying for the coronavirus i could have been somebody that's amazing that's a bad decision
00:31:55.900 that's that's a that's a tough one that's a tough one so here is um here's some other bad news a truck
00:32:01.580 carrying toilet paper went up in flames due to a mechanical error in brisbane australia uh apparently
00:32:10.260 australians there's something about this they're stockpiling toilet paper you notice that in china
00:32:16.820 you didn't hear these stories and i think that may be a reason why it was so bad in china you didn't hear
00:32:24.320 them about we're stop we're running out of toilet paper kleenex has come out and said there's no
00:32:30.140 reason to panic we're gonna make all the toilet paper and all the tissue anybody wants um let me go
00:32:36.980 to let me go to kent washington casey is in washington state welcome to the program hey good to talk to
00:32:44.200 you again and uh got to see you at christmas and we talked for a little bit uh so i've been on the
00:32:49.040 phone a couple of times with you well great i think pat should do a michael jackson voice for
00:32:54.400 the little yoda before he dies so maybe we could do that and the michael jackson i'm i'm in the kent
00:33:00.380 area and uh in the last couple of days it's just amazing some of the local radio announcers have
00:33:05.780 have said that they have tried to find out supplies here locally and then find out that
00:33:11.140 antiseptic supplies at the big box stores they might be open but 81 miles from here they've got
00:33:17.420 plenty down in the south deep sound down in centralia and i know you know the area
00:33:22.480 because of mountain but um i'm not very far at the moment from the new place that the county bought
00:33:29.320 which is an old howard johnson uh bought by econolodge which is now closed and they're going
00:33:35.240 to use that as a quarantine place without telling anybody in the city of kent and the mayor is
00:33:41.000 absolutely upset i would imagine did they buy three or is this the first of three that they
00:33:47.960 bought they're just buying these old motels and saying uh yeah we're just going to keep sick people
00:33:54.060 in there yeah this was the first i know i've been trying to keep uh abreast of what's what's been
00:34:00.400 going on and by the way i want to say hello to my friends at boeing uh especially one who has
00:34:05.460 turned around about five people to the blaze network all right well good i appreciate i appreciate
00:34:10.420 that turning that on all right anyway uh that's what's going on here with uh with that there's
00:34:17.680 been a lot of stuff that's been hoarded for instance i i have bought you know to keep myself healthy uh
00:34:23.680 two large bottles of um the well-named aloe vera uh company that makes uh hand sanitizers and i
00:34:31.640 remember buying those for 17 bucks in november they're now up to 89.90 on amazon but uh they're
00:34:39.160 being you know hoarded uh so you can't get anything the shelves up here all right casey thanks the
00:34:46.780 experts are saying too like the the antibacterial it's not even like there's no point in it just
00:34:51.320 like wash your hands they're saying the pure elf thing is not even something that you need it has
00:34:55.640 nothing to do with this it doesn't help doesn't it kill the it can it can be as good like it's a
00:35:01.620 more convenient way to wash your hands right like in and again i don't even think they're saying it's
00:35:05.760 necessarily to that level but like they're saying don't don't substitute it for washing your hands
00:35:11.740 and also if you can just wash your hands enough you don't really need pure elf it's not necessarily
00:35:16.340 an additional layer of protection we have a guy in uh washington state who visits the nursing homes
00:35:23.180 uh i guess is it reverend mel is that right yes it is hi reverend how are you all doing really good
00:35:32.840 um i'm totally blind but uh i go into the nursing homes every week and uh one of the things i wanted
00:35:42.220 to bring out is that every nursing home that i that i go to and minister in is severely i mean grossly
00:35:52.060 severely understaffed where they can't even move the patients or the residents down to the lunchroom
00:36:00.840 for a service and then with this on top of it a lot of them are canceling out uh now like i can't go
00:36:12.160 to this one nursing home for two weeks because of the corona thing which is good they should be very
00:36:18.540 protective of them and uh the other thing is i wanted to bring out so i want to echo this the
00:36:25.840 same sort of thing that the gentleman said before me is that uh we went to costco um just the other
00:36:35.520 day i think it was on uh monday and it was a madhouse it was worse than christmas eve i'm not i'm not
00:36:45.900 kidding you we stood in line for uh a good hour before we even was able to get checked out and
00:36:54.360 then fred meyers we just went to fred meyers the other day and they were out of toilet paper they
00:37:00.160 were out of uh hand sanitizers they were so so what is it what is it that people are what is it that
00:37:07.860 people are preparing for just to stay home they're afraid that they're all going to be quarantined is that
00:37:15.140 what's happening yeah i think i think that's part of it but you know but you know the thing is here
00:37:21.500 is that all you know king 5 homo 7 and 13 are just whipping the people into frantic every day that
00:37:33.080 the whole hour and an hour and a half is just coronavirus coronavirus coronavirus and um i know i just
00:37:43.600 came from the doctor yesterday for my and saw my injection and he said just vinegar water and just
00:37:51.160 plain soap and water yeah he said don't worry he says it's it's just being blown way out of proportion
00:37:59.160 and all right um i know here in shoreline they open fern crests up
00:38:04.240 which is real old you know fern crests um here on 15th northeast right here reverend i'm sorry i
00:38:16.040 have a network break i have to get to um but i understand it and what what he's saying is
00:38:20.140 they're opening up these places that have been closed for a long time they're doing this in
00:38:23.340 california they're thinking about opening up the old state mental institutions and using them for
00:38:28.680 places it is it is crazy uh what we're seeing but the best thing you can do is not panic not worry
00:38:37.020 about it just keep yourself informed uh on what's going on and just stay at home if you're not feeling
00:38:45.060 well uh all right let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour it's relief factor uh relief factor
00:38:51.540 is something that has really truly changed me changed my my health it's changed the way i i
00:38:58.380 feel every single day uh you know if you've been following me for a long time i i had some really
00:39:04.540 tough years uh where i was just in such bad pain all the time i just couldn't do anything and i tried
00:39:10.000 everything i finally gave up and then my wife said you have to try this please just try it well it's
00:39:17.260 relief factor i did and i feel better now that i have felt in probably 10 or 15 years and it's because
00:39:25.000 of relief factor i take it three times a day 70 of the people who who try it go on to order more
00:39:30.840 month after month why well probably because it works just like it does with me if you want a drug-free
00:39:37.940 natural way to ease your pain and get your life back go to relieffactor.com right now relieffactor.com
00:39:44.340 you're listening to glenn beck
00:39:48.780 talk about politics here for just a couple of seconds uh first of all everything the president
00:40:03.020 said yesterday about coronavirus is absolutely true he said it's just a hunch but i don't think
00:40:08.960 this 3.4 death rate is where it's going to end up it's a lot lower than that of course it is and
00:40:15.300 every single medical expert that i have ever read or heard talk about this says exactly the same thing
00:40:22.780 of course but as stew is going to point out on his program tonight stew does america uh he's got all of
00:40:29.400 the stats he's looking at what everybody is saying and they just dog pile on donald trump and so they're
00:40:36.220 gonna they gotta prove that he's wrong on that yeah despite the fact that they all know what he's
00:40:40.800 saying and they all know he's right yeah they all know he's actually the hunch is a good phrasing for
00:40:45.600 it yeah because we don't know there's not a hundred percent certainty from scientists yet but the
00:40:50.360 scientists have all seen these things happen before and they've all said this is not the final number
00:40:55.820 it's going to come down they don't even say it's a hunch no they just say it's going to come down
00:41:00.440 that's because when you test things uh when you have more tests available there's probably
00:41:05.040 a ton of people walking around this country right now who think they have allergies and have
00:41:10.200 covet 19 and we're not going to know that until all these tests are available uh so we'll give you
00:41:14.960 all the details tonight uh stew does america.com is where you can find all the links subscribe at

00:44:42.880 crazy even more crazy than they were in america because of coronavirus what is the truth on this
00:44:51.380 should you be panicking are they giving you all of the information
00:44:56.180 what do they know that we don't know there's a couple of things that are happening that are just
00:45:01.000 real mixed messages and i think i can help you with that and we'll give you all of the latest on
00:45:06.320 that we're about an hour away from our coronavirus update but i want to spend some time here talking
00:45:10.640 about it and also chuck schumer oh and the latest poll from florida for the democrats holy cow bernie
00:45:19.980 sanders it's over all that and more in one minute this is the glenbeck program
00:45:26.820 the old saying is the best defense is a good offense and it's true but nowhere can you see
00:45:33.980 this more clearly than with simply safe if you're using home monitoring system that is simply safe
00:45:40.440 you got it the guy who's been casing your house for the week or so um that you just don't know
00:45:45.840 because he's casing your house hopefully you'll never have to meet him or you'll never have to
00:45:51.420 you know worry about him because you have simply safe when he comes up to your door and sees that
00:45:55.580 you have simply safe installed he's apt to turn away and find an easier house to deal with in fact
00:46:00.840 the number one thing that burglars look for is do you have an alarm system and is it armed
00:46:05.980 that's a good offense and defense simply say protects every door window room with 24 7 professional
00:46:13.200 monitoring outdoor cameras and doorbells alert you to anyone approaching your home
00:46:17.500 entry motion and glass breaks and break centers guard the interior i will tell you i had a very
00:46:25.300 sophisticated uh system put into my home uh that was really i bleed expensive uh what 12 years ago
00:46:35.940 simply safe does the job it has more tools to that now than uh that top of the line you know kind of
00:46:45.680 nobody but uh nobody but somebody in my position would have that kind of alarm system put in
00:46:51.960 i can get the same thing now in your house and you'll pay 50 cents a day you'll buy the system
00:46:56.920 but wait until you see the price of the system they're giving away a free hd camera that camera is
00:47:02.700 a hundred dollars if you just go to simply safe beck.com you get that security camera so
00:47:07.840 if that's a high-end hd security camera and it's a hundred bucks you know the system doesn't cost you
00:47:14.680 an arm and a leg and 50 cents a day to monitor are you kidding me do it now simply safe beck.com
00:47:21.220 simply safe beck.com
00:47:23.580 so i want to start here i want to start with joe in florida who works at a local hospital hello joe
00:47:41.720 welcome thank you for taking my call glenn i'm a very very avid listener thank you and i appreciate
00:47:48.640 everything you do thank you so so much so how can tell me what you're feeling in the hospital uh
00:47:56.700 there in florida well i we're in the tampa area and my wife and i work for one of the major hospitals
00:48:03.720 here in tampa that is handling now that we have been informed the uh testing for the coronavirus
00:48:11.160 on or about the 10th of february we received a company a hospital-wide email that they were
00:48:19.500 uh have two patients that they were observing for uh an infection they weren't given any details of
00:48:28.080 what the infection was but they made sure that it went out that uh all the employees knew
00:48:34.640 now none of the public was told the tv stations radio none of this information was let out lo and
00:48:42.340 behold but six seven days ago bam the tampa bay area has two coronaviruses
00:48:47.860 and we were not told where they got it where they've been who've they touched i think the best
00:48:54.880 way if somebody tells me that they've been to a local supermarket and that's where they've contacted
00:48:59.560 it i'm not going to stop there information is key so what are you what are you saying
00:49:08.420 i'm saying that we're not getting the information we should be about where it's spreading from if
00:49:16.680 people are going from the airport i mean they're saying that they've come from this country or they've
00:49:22.020 been to this facility but that doesn't help us when somebody's sick with the measles a kid and
00:49:27.300 they've been to junior's house you don't send your kids over to junior's house anymore for another
00:49:32.000 13 14 days well the problem the problem is joe is we don't like junior but you know we'll sure
00:49:39.000 we're going to stay away are we sure you know the problem is is that we haven't known because we
00:49:43.820 haven't had the testing etc etc so we haven't really known what we're dealing with until recently now
00:49:50.240 that the testing and this is why what donald trump said yesterday is is right he said you know i'm just
00:49:56.980 basing this on a hunch but that number of you know 3.2 uh for the number of deaths that number is
00:50:03.600 going to come down it will because there are people walking around right now with the coronavirus that
00:50:09.400 don't know they have it and it's not affecting them in any sort of way that is putting them into icu
00:50:16.080 and so you know in the past we haven't known we still won't know for a while because you know as
00:50:23.700 mike pence said yesterday in his press conference we are looking now just now to being able to get
00:50:30.920 people uh the diagnostic labs the commercial diagnostic labs to start taking tests for the
00:50:39.140 coronavirus right now you have to go to either a university a state-run university hospital
00:50:44.720 or one of the regional hospitals that can do it soon all of our hospitals will be able to test
00:50:50.940 and your local doctor will be able to send you to you know quest diagnostics you know where they take
00:50:56.240 your blood they'll be able to swab and then alert you and you can go to your regular doctor that's not
00:51:02.060 happening yet and that's why we're going to see these numbers explode i agree with you once we know
00:51:08.380 we have to tell people but i'm not sure if we all knew about that uh even a couple of weeks ago joe thanks
00:51:15.780 so much for your phone call uh there's a couple of other things that uh i i want to address stew is
00:51:21.320 going to be talking about this tonight uh where trump is going up against a media that wants him to fail
00:51:29.120 they must blame all of this on him and they're going to disagree with whatever he says for instance
00:51:36.140 he gave 2.5 billion dollars for the cdc to be able to start their work on what is happening in
00:51:45.760 coronavirus before there was a single death in the united states now i want to put that into perspective
00:51:51.320 during the swine flu when barack obama gave the first one billion dollars for the swine flu
00:51:58.120 and everyone in the media cheered this is so brave and he's way ahead you didn't hear me
00:52:05.800 complaining that he gave a billion dollars you didn't hear me complaining when he didn't give
00:52:11.100 a billion dollars soon enough i thought it was appropriate there were about a thousand people
00:52:18.540 that had died in the united states before he released the first billion dollars that's barack obama
00:52:24.840 and everyone made him out to be a hero donald trump gives two and a half times that amount
00:52:30.840 before anyone dies and he's a villain he's acting slow right yeah no one had died here in america yet
00:52:39.400 uh then on top of it uh they just released 8.5 billion dollars yesterday okay good if that's what it's
00:52:49.460 going to take if that's what the they need fine but are the politicians doing this because they're
00:52:55.020 actually operating on information or are they just operating on get the president so we have to be
00:53:01.860 really really careful because what the president said yesterday is 100 accurate it is based on quote as he
00:53:10.580 said a hunch but every single the cdc uh every single person that i've read from the who they all say
00:53:20.480 the same thing the number of death rate right now is about 3.1 to 3.4 percent they expect that number to
00:53:28.640 come down possibly below one percent as the death rate of course it will we're not testing people so if
00:53:37.880 you're seeing you're seeing uh you you don't know how many people have heart disease and all of sudden
00:53:45.140 four people in your hospital come in and they had a heart attack and they die well we've had four
00:53:51.880 people and they just died from this heart thing that is in the center of their chest if something
00:53:57.380 goes wrong with your heart so far it's a 100 percent death rate no there's lots of people that have
00:54:03.280 heart attacks and heart problems and it doesn't lead to their death we have a lot of people with
00:54:08.960 covid19 right now that don't know it and we know that's happening they just were talking about this
00:54:15.300 infection in washington and they believe thousands of people have been walking around spreading it to
00:54:20.700 each other for weeks but it because you know they might think they have allergies they might think
00:54:25.240 they were sick with something else they might not even notice it at all it's not that big of deal
00:54:30.720 in most people yeah then that's what it looks like that looks right to be true right by the way so if
00:54:36.640 it's not that big of a deal in most people when you start to see the numbers of this go up through
00:54:42.720 the roof which they will now and that's going to seem bad it's actually good over that we're diagnosing
00:54:48.440 exactly over the next few weeks we're supposed to get uh i think it's 1.5 or 1.35 million tests
00:54:55.080 for covid19 in the united states by next week is what they believe they're going to have so far
00:55:03.180 there's only been a few hundred maybe a couple thousand people who have been tested in total
00:55:07.540 as of last week there were only 422 tests that had been done total coast to coast alaska and hawaii so
00:55:15.880 because they're only using these tests when it is very obvious you go into a hospital you have all the
00:55:25.120 symptoms you're about to die they test you right so yes the death rate seems pretty high because those
00:55:32.100 are the people getting the tests however when you go to um let's just say uh you have a sore throat
00:55:38.000 and you go into the urgent care today what are they going to do they're going to swab your throat
00:55:42.680 and give you a strep throat test right because they have plenty of those so anyone who comes in
00:55:48.080 who has the even the possibility of having a strep throat they give you a strep throat test same thing
00:55:53.540 with the flu you get a flu test every time you go in there when you're sick i don't think i have the
00:55:56.980 flu yeah but we just want to rule it out right that's what they always say to you well eventually
00:56:01.520 down the road we will have enough tests for covid19 for that to be the process yeah that's a problem
00:56:06.600 don't trump hasn't done enough how come we don't have 320 million tests that we could take right now
00:56:11.680 i know i don't know why he didn't think of this before you know someone had bat soup which we don't
00:56:16.480 think is actually the cause but it's the funniest way to say the cause poor bats are getting blamed for
00:56:20.020 all this um you know there have been other countries that are a little bit ahead of us
00:56:23.140 popular as romney but go ahead that's true uh and there's some people who are criticizing over
00:56:28.100 that i mean look it's about making sure uh that you accelerate this as fast as possible we're going
00:56:34.180 to put in a lot of private businesses that are going to make this happen in an impressive way and
00:56:38.780 so far the the response i think has been correct for trump and he's put i think a lot of uh weight on
00:56:45.460 it it's not his area of expertise but he's put his best people on it and that's what you do
00:56:49.880 but like like for example he said trump's quote is this well i think 3.4 percent is really a false
00:56:57.180 number now this is just my hunch but based on a lot of conversations with a lot of people who do this
00:57:01.560 because a lot of people will have this and it's very mild they'll get better very rapidly they don't
00:57:05.820 even have to see a doctor they don't even call a doctor you never hear about those people and he goes
00:57:09.600 on to say um uh so i think that number is very high personally i'd say the number is way under one
00:57:16.140 percent again he based this on a hunch here is a quote from the new england journal of medicine
00:57:21.000 tell me how dissimilar these are other than the fact that one guy's talking like a doctor and one
00:57:25.380 guy's talking like donald trump if one assumes that the number of asymptomatic or minimally
00:57:29.700 symptomatic cases is several times as high as the number of reported cases the case fatality rate may
00:57:34.940 be considerably less than one percent same thing it's the exact same thing that's from the new england
00:57:41.240 journal of medicine he's just saying it like donald trump as opposed to like a doctor but what
00:57:46.800 he's even saying it may if it turns out it is at some level a hunch because they don't know all the
00:57:52.480 details yet but it's acting like all of the previous viruses they have uh that they dealt with before
00:57:58.700 they've seen these things come before they have hundreds of years of medical knowledge that has brought
00:58:04.780 them to this point and they're now under trying to understand what where this is going to go
00:58:10.000 and they think they have an idea of it but they can't be certain which is why you have to take
00:58:14.220 it seriously okay so stew is going to do this this is opening monologue tonight on stew does uh america
00:58:19.120 you don't want to miss that blaze tv.com subscribe right now and watch it you can watch it online
00:58:24.060 as well youtube as well go subscribe there on podcast subscribe all right so he's got that tonight but
00:58:29.420 there's a there's another part of this that i think is really important the other reason why you're
00:58:34.000 getting you're feeling like there's mixed messages the president is saying one thing
00:58:38.000 and then you'll hear from the medical community saying for instance the cdc said stop comparing
00:58:45.200 this to the flu it's not the flu why are they doing that because they need us to stay home
00:58:52.820 the entire world is doing this this is not about an election or an economy or anything else
00:58:59.680 they're trying to get everyone to stay home because if this mutates at this point without some sort of
00:59:07.100 vaccine it could become very very deadly and so they don't want it to spread until we're more
00:59:15.780 prepared for this we are probably 10 days away from a vaccine announcement coming from israel that could
00:59:24.900 put us six months away from a vaccine being able to be made and then how fast can they get that around
00:59:32.520 the world they are trying to buy time in case it mutates in a dangerous way but as i told you
00:59:40.400 yesterday this is already mutated once and it has become less dangerous in its latest mutation so
00:59:49.200 that's good news you just have to stay informed and don't spread the things you're like well this is
00:59:57.380 crazy did you see this cats are going out at night and intentionally they've been they've been hired by the
01:00:05.560 democrats to scratch people corona starts with a c cats start with a c there's a c at the end of dnc
01:00:18.160 what do you think is going on don't spread that stuff get the real information and tell your friends
01:00:26.260 to remain calm all right
01:00:29.700 got a great great hour remaining we've got to get to chuck schumer and what is happening with chuck

01:02:11.840 just pay attention to this stupid crap coming out of washington let me give you what um schumer said
01:02:19.440 that some would say and i'm one of those uh is was threatening the conservative supreme court justices
01:02:27.780 listen to what he said and they're taking away fundamental rights i want to tell you gorsuch
01:02:34.620 i want to tell you kavanaugh you have released the whirlwind and you will pay the price
01:02:42.660 you won't know what hit you if you go forward with these awful decisions
01:02:51.160 really what do you mean by that chuck can you imagine what they'd say if i gave that same speech
01:02:59.820 about him and you not only if you gave that speech what they'd say to you but they would go around to
01:03:05.500 every republican in in congress and get their reaction to see if they agreed with you and they
01:03:11.760 would make you they would make them denounce you if they were going to be in good standing with the
01:03:16.760 media so chuck what did you mean what did you mean he's his way out of this is what i was saying is
01:03:22.260 uh republicans would face electoral consequences that's not a consequence they won't know what
01:03:26.820 hit them that that has nothing to do with supreme court exactly he he act he's acting like he was
01:03:31.500 applying that to uh politicians which is not he's no he before it and after it says uh he says the name
01:03:38.700 specifically and then he says if you come down with these decisions which there's no decisions
01:03:44.120 coming out of congress that yeah they're they're talking about the supreme court supreme court and
01:03:48.500 he's and he has no idea the whirlwind that he has brought upon himself in my opinion they are now
01:03:55.320 calling for him to step down it won't happen the press will not cover this they'll just oh they're
01:04:01.080 just saying like oh republicans are pouncing on his comments yeah no is that what they're doing is that
01:04:05.280 is that what's happening i just want you to listen to who he was speaking to here's a cut of one of
01:04:10.040 the women at this this uh pro-abortion rally you can't say this is pro-choice because there is no
01:04:16.300 choice anymore there is no choice you either choose the way they choose or you're gonna have a whirlwind
01:04:23.480 come on your head listen to this woman who is pro-abortion in the speaking before chuck schumer listen
01:04:31.080 yes we're the abortion providers at we're the future abortion providers at
01:04:38.040 awesome and a special shout out to where my people who had abortions
01:04:44.300 nothing about this work is gonna be without us
01:04:50.760 awesome yeah so as i said i had an abortion when i was 19 it was honestly one of the best decisions of
01:04:59.620 my life i was simply not ready to become a parent and that's really all you need to know
01:05:05.320 all right that was a great decision yeah great great decision i don't think anybody in america
01:05:12.580 wants to condemn anyone in that situation i'm not here to judge anyone i am going to i am going to
01:05:19.880 judge you if you're like you know what it was great and i've had a couple of them because you know
01:05:26.440 i just hey it was where i was at and it was great and i encourage you to do it no no i am going to
01:05:34.200 judge you on that but this is where the left is this followed by chuck schumer same rally you're
01:05:44.080 listening to glenn beck maybe that would explain what's happening in florida we'll give you that
01:05:49.400 coming up in just a second somewhere within the sound of my voice in america there's a man standing at
01:05:53.140 open an open grave of a bygone era casting his his gaze not on the death of an ideal
01:06:00.520 but the death of a place in time the old days they're called fondly he thinks about the old
01:06:07.440 days they're gone now but the ideal remains and it burns inside of him spills onto everything that he
01:06:14.580 touches that's the spirit of the cowboy you're not pining for the old days you're pining for the
01:06:20.240 things that are true a filter of integrity which a lot of people in this country this cowboy has will
01:06:27.640 always have and it helps them see the world around and make sense of it it's part of him from the
01:06:35.200 light in his eyes all the way down to the pair of tekova's boots that he wears on his feet

01:07:09.560 welcome to the glenn beck program hello america it is thursday we have our coronavirus update the
01:07:21.580 official one coming up here in about 30 minutes from now it's one you don't want to miss share
01:07:26.180 it with your friends there's lots of information disinformation and misinformation that is going
01:07:30.580 around uh you know slow down on the toilet paper stuff uh we'll get to that here in in just a few
01:07:36.540 minutes i want to introduce you to somebody uh her name is tracy walter and you might have you might
01:07:41.560 have heard of her uh because she just released a book called the unexpected spy she was a sorority
01:07:49.520 sister in her junior year of college in california when she met a cia recruiter at a jobs fair
01:07:56.220 and uh and she went to work for the cia when you hear what she's done uh and then you you listen to
01:08:05.740 her tell these stories and you're looking at her and you realize she's now just a teacher in a an
01:08:13.620 all-girls school here in dallas texas if you watched the the tv show like i did years ago alias
01:08:22.100 it really kind of becomes real all of a sudden where this sweet girl is just oh you know i'm just
01:08:29.100 and then she's got off you know investigating and interrogating terrorists someplace in the world
01:08:35.020 welcome how are you thank you for having me i'm good so have you been compared to the alias story
01:08:41.780 alias is is is definitely the one i hear the most yeah in terms of comparison how how similar was your
01:08:47.600 life uh in some ways to that so i've never watched alias oh really no okay well you know the the idea
01:08:54.940 that you go out and you are actually in these these really crazy situations you've told give give give
01:09:03.580 just a couple of things that you have seen and done in your life that would shock people if they
01:09:08.920 were passing you in the grocery store so i've interrogated terrorists i think most people are
01:09:14.140 usually surprised when they hear that right um i've served some time in some pretty um desolate war
01:09:19.420 zones um seen a bunch of decapitated heads yeah um i've watched a woman die yeah so those are just some
01:09:27.140 you are you are um when you say you in you interrogated terrorists you went over and these
01:09:35.820 are some of the real bad guys in the world that most of them would never ever speak to a woman
01:09:43.080 and here you come in you seem like you're very mild and sweet and nice what is the situation like
01:09:51.640 when you walk into somebody who's not used to talking to a woman or answering to a woman
01:09:56.140 so that's a good question i think it depends on sort of what stage of their detention they're at
01:10:01.880 if you catch my drift um you know if they've just entered yeah um you know they're usually a little
01:10:07.080 bit more combative and i'll usually need to work with someone to kind of get us through that um and
01:10:12.600 then you know if they've been there for a bit and they're a little bit more complacent it's it's
01:10:16.180 usually not that big of a deal i mean they're there they're in prison they have to talk to me and
01:10:21.680 you know it may seem sweet but i have a little bit of a bite sometimes i bet you
01:10:25.420 i bet you do um so you went out uh and let's start at the beginning you're just at this job fair
01:10:35.040 and they approach you so the way that it worked was at usc is is where i did my undergrad we have a
01:10:41.600 sort of a main thoroughfare and it's called truesdale parkway and on truesdale parkway
01:10:46.160 there were just a bunch of different tables set up for a bunch of different organizations and i actually
01:10:50.780 went to the cia table um and gave them my resume so i guess i sought them out okay and so you get
01:10:57.560 in and what year was this this would have been 1998 1998 and you actually come up with a uh chemical
01:11:06.220 weapons chart yes right explain what that is that you did so during my time at the cia i worked in the
01:11:12.520 counterterrorism center in the weapons of mass destruction group and so one of the things that
01:11:16.620 we did just to keep the people who we were following straight it was just for visual purposes
01:11:21.240 was we created sort of a toxins and poisons chart you know who was at the top of procuring these
01:11:27.320 weapons for al-qaeda and then you know where were their henchmen and so we had created that chart and
01:11:32.260 we sort of put that chart um on the walls of all of our cubicles to just keep an eye on things and it
01:11:38.160 was just a lot easier to track where they were did you ever think of to cross your mind maybe i'm
01:11:42.480 in uh how did i get here into this profession where i have that chart on my cubicle wall
01:11:48.700 this is i i don't used to i think i kind of questioned my my career choices if i'm like
01:11:54.780 oh yeah deadly toxin chart i got it over here on the wall of my cubicle um and this is this this chart
01:12:02.360 um what role did it play in the iraq war so um the chart what we had titled it was al-qaeda's
01:12:11.260 poisons and toxins group they were just a cell that we were following that was trying to procure
01:12:15.740 them one day um in our office it wasn't unusual to have members of the administration sort of
01:12:20.700 coming in and out just given the given the nature of what we were doing and and the year that it was
01:12:26.320 um and someone from the administration had come down and wanted a copy of of that chart which if
01:12:32.300 they ask you of course say yes and i don't think we thought really anything more about it um until it
01:12:38.140 was used by colin powell on the floor of the un how'd you feel about that um so i think not what
01:12:45.160 people assume um you know i think my mind didn't jump to the iraq war actually initially i think for
01:12:50.440 us what was frustrating was there were individuals on that chart who we didn't want to know that we
01:12:56.060 were looking for them um and as a result all of those individuals sort of went underground and
01:13:01.740 disappeared so were there chemical weapons in iraq you know this this story has never really
01:13:08.240 had a satisfying answer one way or another do we know you know i don't i don't know that we know i
01:13:15.160 mean i moved to the fbi about a year later so i'm not you know entirely certain um what they
01:13:20.740 ultimately found i mean we know saddam hussein used chemical weapons i don't think that's shocking
01:13:26.120 they're a nation state most nation states have them um but in terms of al-qaeda um we don't really
01:13:32.660 have evidence that they were trying to acquire nuclear weapons per se you concerned about what
01:13:37.560 was announced yesterday on the nuclear weapon front from from iran yes i i tweeted that actually the
01:13:43.600 other day i'm i'm actually very concerned explain what what came out why it concerns you so why it's
01:13:49.100 concerning is now we we believe um that they have more than enough nuclear material to build a nuclear
01:13:55.420 bomb certainly there's kind of steps they have to take to do that obviously they need the
01:14:00.420 centrifuges and launch devices and all those kinds of things but i am concerned that they now have
01:14:05.440 obtained enough material the coronavirus they thought that this was a weapon i don't believe
01:14:12.640 that at all do you agree i do you agree you do not what about the bioweapons lab that's a level
01:14:19.180 four bioweapons lab there's only a few of them there are we apparently said to them don't don't
01:14:25.380 you should probably shut that one down because it's right it would be like us having it in los
01:14:29.540 angeles right in the center of los angeles right right which is not where you put bioweapons no
01:14:33.720 have you ever been to a bioweapons lab uh yes i have scary uh scary but you're right they're not
01:14:39.600 usually in the middle of densely populated areas right i mean i read i don't know if you know who
01:14:44.520 keith albeck is um he was the head of the bioweapons lab was ken ken albeck uh bioweapons lab
01:14:52.360 uh and research in the soviet union uh and defected as soon as the wall came down the stories he tells
01:14:59.280 about the difference between us we we look at something and say can we cure it and then and then
01:15:07.860 can it be used as a weapon yes they do the opposite i totally agree with yeah they think that if if it has
01:15:13.380 a cure it's not a good weapon which is insane that's that's the way at least the soviet union
01:15:18.460 was i don't know about now i feel like that's the way a lot of countries sort of look at it more so
01:15:23.000 than us you know we look at whether or not we can cure things and that's a good thing we should
01:15:27.060 yeah um but i do i feel we're not doing enough in terms of being more aggressive about how these
01:15:35.340 things are weaponized and how to keep ourselves safe so when you went to the fbi why'd you make the
01:15:40.540 transition from cia to fbi so that's a good question um i loved my time at the cia i left
01:15:45.960 under great terms and still friendly with a lot of people there but one thing that was never going
01:15:50.620 to change about the cia was their mission abroad and i think you know at the ripe old age of 26
01:15:55.900 i realized i wanted a little more stability in my life i knew eventually i'd want more stability in my
01:16:02.000 life um but i was really passionate about the counterterrorism mission so i thought you know why
01:16:07.120 don't i become a special agent now with the fbi and hopefully i could work stateside you know in
01:16:11.740 one office how do you feel about the fbi and its credibility now and and i don't even mean about the
01:16:18.280 i don't even mean the the agents per se but the way things have been dealt with recently it just it
01:16:26.800 doesn't i've always been very very pro law enforcement fbi i think these guys are amazing
01:16:33.160 but the people up at top have really that there seems to be a culture where they're burying a lot
01:16:39.440 of stuff that must eat at fbi local agents that may be afraid of retaliation for saying anything
01:16:46.800 do you how do you view what's happening at the fbi now so i obviously have a lot of respect for law
01:16:54.280 enforcement right well i always have um i think it's a difficult it's a difficult question for me because
01:17:00.160 part of my judgment you know of the fbi is a little bit clouded by the pretty terrible way
01:17:05.420 that i was treated um when i was there so sometimes it's hard for me to sort of separate the two and
01:17:10.280 look at it objectively what was the pretty terrible way you were treated um i was severely sexually
01:17:15.420 harassed um at the fbi i am sorry i missed that part of your story i don't even know how how i missed
01:17:21.700 that part of your story what what happened it was a culture shock for me because i had come from
01:17:26.340 the agency um you've been overseas a lot worked with many men members of seal teams and had never
01:17:32.120 experienced any negative treatment whatsoever so it was quite a shock for me you know really from my
01:17:37.900 first day of quantico on um it just didn't stop ever and from what i understand it hasn't changed
01:17:44.580 um there's a eeo lawsuit right now 17 women um about gender discrimination what's happening there
01:17:50.940 i mean do we have a chance of cleaning this out if you asked me that before i found out about this
01:17:58.160 new lawsuit i would have probably said yes but it's disturbing to me that in 2020 we are still
01:18:04.540 having this issue i would i would have thought that perhaps things would have changed when the police
01:18:11.100 become the bad guys you're in trouble because there's no who do you go to who do you go to when
01:18:18.000 that's what had happened um my instructors at quantico were terrible to me too um it really was
01:18:24.400 kind of all the way up the chain didn't stop i don't want any of the tales i because i don't okay i
01:18:31.080 don't care um you know i mean out of respect it's in the book yeah yeah i just don't i just don't need
01:18:37.780 to hear somebody to recant or recount regale all of their worst nightmares how bad was the sexual
01:18:45.820 uh you know trouble what were they doing um i would say it was more verbal than anything else
01:18:56.520 um and i know you don't want stories i'll just give you one you can you can i just don't i don't
01:19:01.320 like pressing people on stuff like no i can give you one small anecdote that will sort of set the
01:19:05.140 stage i guess for everything else and you'll i guess gain an understanding of of how it proceeded um
01:19:11.400 one of the very first things that you do at quantico and i'm not sure that we still do that
01:19:15.320 there um is interview you learn you know how to conduct interviews and so you have to wear a suit
01:19:19.780 instead of your uniform to do that fine and it was the same suit i had worn for five years that the cia
01:19:26.260 never had experienced any pushback about it i did my interview did fine but my head instructor called
01:19:33.020 me into her office afterwards and said that i needed to write a letter of apology um to my interview
01:19:38.700 instructor because my suit made him uncomfortable and that i needed to go buy new suits um and
01:19:44.480 you know i'm sort of embarrassed to say that i did do it um i probably should have quit you know right
01:19:51.680 there i'm not really quitter and i i wanted to finish almost despite these people i think um i did buy
01:19:58.180 new suits and was i was digging through old pictures recently and i found my graduation picture
01:20:02.000 from quantico my mom was like the crotch of your suit is down to your knees because i had purchased
01:20:06.680 such large suits to sort of overcompensate well for that wow um the name of the book is the
01:20:13.720 unexpected uh spy uh tracy walder and i have not had a chance obviously to read it yet i want to read
01:20:20.100 it i want to have you back and talk um and and do a podcast with you because your your story what

01:20:51.780 stand by i'm not a big fan of people doing things in my name especially you know uh when i don't know
01:21:02.640 about it we live in a digital world and much of what makes us up as people in society is uh floating
01:21:09.160 around in the ether there are people now that are trying to grab that stuff and be you in all of the

01:22:10.200 you're listening to glenn beck
01:22:15.180 wow there are some major things happening uh politically that you should know about first
01:22:29.200 of all warren has just dropped out of the presidential race so that means it is now
01:22:34.780 officially bernie sanders joe biden and tulsi gabbard tulsi's moving up to third
01:22:39.940 she is right behind you guys yeah she's there i think it'd be great like maybe they'll both drop
01:22:44.900 out she'll just win that would be an interesting turn so what does this mean who does this benefit
01:22:50.520 yeah and by the way we should point out that i don't think she's said it herself yet there are
01:22:54.360 reports uh that it is happening as we speak however um you know here is a what does it mean i mean it
01:23:00.920 helps bernie clearly uh though it's not entirely clear that her votes would go to bernie and it's
01:23:09.320 not entirely clear that she would endorse bernie um she did endorse uh hillary in 2016 she's she's
01:23:15.400 much more of an establishment creature than yeah and i think people look at her as much more of an
01:23:20.640 establishment creature you could also make the argument she goes out she uh endorses um she goes
01:23:27.340 endorses biden it might be the type of thing where he would consider her for vp or something else
01:23:33.320 big um because that would you would think completely uh close the door on bernie bernie is in in serious
01:23:39.860 trouble this has gone out of control fast we talked to you about this poll um a little bit earlier in
01:23:44.080 the program new poll out of florida taken yesterday with bloomberg still included in the race so
01:23:50.260 and warren and warren as well uh biden 61 sanders 12 this is like the i've never seen a jolt of
01:24:00.240 caffeine into a campaign like this in history well i've never seen this happen in my lifetime i mean

01:26:36.760 morning central time total confirmed cases now are 96 286 that is up about 2000 from yesterday at this
01:26:46.900 time with that being said you're going to see this case number start to rise because america is going
01:26:52.500 to start doing extensive tests you know just a week ago there only been about 400 people that had had
01:26:59.020 a coronavirus test now they're starting to enter into the thousands so we will see that number go up
01:27:06.680 and the percentage of the death rate that death rate is really important you'll start to see that
01:27:12.440 come down total confirmed deaths is up about 100 people globally 86 countries have now confirmed cases
01:27:21.260 that is an addition of five new countries overnight seven more now have suspected cases
01:27:27.080 17 of active cases are now considered serious now that's number is important that number is dropping
01:27:34.740 just at the beginning of last week that number was 19 of all active cases were serious meaning they
01:27:41.900 required hospitalization or uh or the five percent that require icu the united states now has 160
01:27:50.040 confirmed cases now 11 deaths 10 in washington state and one in california we're going to give you the
01:27:57.440 details on what's happening in washington state because it's a little crazy in washington the confirmed
01:28:02.360 cases in the u.s now include washington state oregon california arizona texas wisconsin illinois new york
01:28:09.620 new jersey massachusetts new hampshire rhode island north carolina georgia florida with an additional
01:28:15.400 suspected case in missouri and colorado california and washington and washington have the highest number of
01:28:21.820 infections with 40 plus cases in each state that makes sense those are huge asian population centers and the
01:28:29.180 closest to asia in washington king county is now asking all 2.2 million residents of king county that's the
01:28:39.320 seattle area county all 2.2 million residents to work from home if possible county officials are asking
01:28:49.300 employers to move from work to a home basis for all office and administrative workers if possible
01:28:55.160 the request also includes recommendations to avoid any large gatherings of more than 10 people
01:29:01.120 especially in confined indoor spaces officials in seattle and king county also recommend that
01:29:09.300 any person over the age of 60 or with underlying health issues stay home avoid going to public
01:29:15.800 places or having physical contact with others just as a precaution the the reason why they're doing this
01:29:22.540 is the fatality rate for 60 plus is estimated at this point but these numbers will come down to be about
01:29:30.100 five percent so the median age of those who are getting it is 60 the median age for those who are dying is 80
01:29:41.460 so it is really dependent on age that's why so many uh are getting sick in nursing homes all washington
01:29:52.320 residents are being asked not to lick envelopes if they are voting by mail in the state's march 10th primary
01:29:59.900 i don't think i've licked an envelope in a long time and i'm glad we're past that
01:30:06.140 stew's looking at me give me a weird look yeah because you do now if you ever do send out an
01:30:11.240 envelope which even that i feel like is relatively rare at this point they've got the little peel off
01:30:15.660 right right that's how that works it's been a while yeah hospital officials are asking any person
01:30:20.620 coming into a hospital who suspects that maybe they have covet 19 uh the to call ahead and wear a
01:30:30.100 surgical mask to prevent the spread however how are you getting a surgical mask that's the problem
01:30:36.360 surgical masks are in high high demand but this is really important for everyone to understand
01:30:43.360 if you think you have the covid uh virus it is really important to call ahead because you don't
01:30:53.140 want to walk into an emergency room where a bunch of people are that don't have it and then sit in the
01:30:58.480 waiting room call ahead and they will make arrangements for you to come king county has also bought a motel
01:31:06.120 to house covid 19 patients now the board of supervisors purchased the 24 room kent motel to house
01:31:14.140 patients who don't require icu treatment they say the old motel is ideal because it has hard surfaces which
01:31:22.000 can be disinfected and independent heating and cooling units in each room there's no shared ventilation
01:31:28.200 just in case covid 19 is airborne which we don't know yet so they bought this old hotel the problem is
01:31:37.400 uh they didn't let the the mayor or anybody else in the area know that that's what they were planning
01:31:44.300 the move is designed to ensure hospital beds are reserved for those requiring icu and other life-saving
01:31:50.180 medical procedures we are going to see this more and more because our hospital staffs are going to be
01:31:57.260 overworked this could be a real nightmare i would hope that there are those florence nightingale types
01:32:05.380 that are thinking now that they want to volunteer their time because i think we're going to need
01:32:12.220 volunteers in the future counties uh the king county is also using 18 mobile homes originally planned for
01:32:19.080 homeless shelters in a secondary location near the motel gavin newsom the governor of california is also
01:32:24.880 designated modular homeless shelters as potential covid 19 quarantine facilities for the homeless
01:32:30.500 or other patients california has set up 18 fema provided modular home homeless shelters in january of
01:32:37.980 2020 which now could be used as quarantine centers the who the who the who and the cdc are now saying
01:32:47.820 please please please stop comparing covid 19 to the seasonal flu
01:32:53.760 now this is where it gets dicey because right now you need to understand the most important thing we can do
01:33:04.040 is contain this we don't know what this will turn into we think that the death rate we think we have a handle
01:33:12.280 on that we think the death rate is going to be a lot uh a lot lower is going to start falling and as it starts
01:33:21.840 to fall uh you will see that people will not panic so much the reason why i think people are panicking is
01:33:31.380 they don't know what this is this is the this is the unknown and the the lack of known unknowns you know
01:33:41.840 what i mean the old rumsfeld thing right we don't know what we don't know yet and i think because this
01:33:48.060 is so new people are freaking out about it so they're saying don't say this is just like the flu
01:33:54.020 because then people won't take it seriously and we which they should the flu kills a lot of freaking
01:33:59.280 people 600 000 people worldwide every year it's a big deal it's not something you should you should
01:34:07.020 you should be able to just dismiss they're thinking this is 10 times deadlier and two times
01:34:13.120 more contagious they think that if if it mutates or if the numbers stay the way they are which no one
01:34:22.000 thinks except currently the press because of of donald trump yeah uh that it could kill 20 times or 30
01:34:29.740 times more than the average flu remember we don't have treatments yet too it's another big part of this
01:34:34.860 the reason why the flu uh rate is so low at 0.1 percent right it's not because if you left it
01:34:41.880 completely untreated it wouldn't be a 0.1 percent it's a 0.1 percent because we've developed a really
01:34:47.280 good defense against it half the population takes the vaccine every year uh there are four approved
01:34:53.760 medications to treat it or these are all big things that help get that rate lower we haven't done any of
01:34:59.300 that stuff yet with covid that's why they're so scared of it especially this year we don't even know if
01:35:03.680 it's going to be a seasonal thing if we go into you know may and this is not dying out that doesn't
01:35:13.280 give us a break right now we're hoping that this is a seasonal style flu that will hide itself again
01:35:20.640 until fall and when it hides itself we'll have time to really stock up really prepare really get up on our
01:35:28.500 feet so we're trying to play catch up now because and it's not that anyone is behind it's just that
01:35:36.100 this was an unknown it is a brand new virus of the likes of which we've never seen before they're saying
01:35:44.260 that the concerns the reason why they say don't say this is like the flu is because people won't they
01:35:50.140 think won't take the necessary precautions to prevent and slow the spread as much as possible
01:35:56.540 their real concern here is that hospitals are going to be overwhelmed my real concern is if you're in
01:36:05.660 oklahoma or kansas or heck even idaho any place where you have a a regional hospital and then you're
01:36:17.200 looking at a very very small hospital where we only have a couple of doctors when that doctor gets sick
01:36:25.780 and they will if they are treating everybody in town when that doctor gets sick who's going to
01:36:33.660 replace that doctor how does that doctor get sleep so they don't get sick so they're really concerned
01:36:42.060 about just our resources being overrun right now up in in washington state the fire department the
01:36:49.220 ambulance anybody who was called on that first death now is in quarantine so now all of those
01:36:54.140 firefighters and paramedics can't go out and help people that's why they want you to call in advance
01:37:01.540 hey i think we need to get you to the hospital okay call the ambulance tell them this is covid 19
01:37:09.480 they may be asking that now but in seattle on that first death they didn't ask that question
01:37:17.660 nobody informed them when they got there it was too late the other thing the reason why this is being
01:37:23.560 taken so seriously is not because of what it is today but what it could continue to become if it mutates
01:37:32.200 into something more dangerous it is already split once from an original s strain uh to the l strain
01:37:40.300 and i said earlier today that the l strain is actually less deadly that's not true it's actually the
01:37:46.640 reverse of that the l strain is more deadly so it's already beginning to mutate i want to talk to you a little
01:37:54.120 bit about what the banks are doing and what the imf did yesterday what congress did what the president did
01:38:01.240 because there's there's a couple of things that i think is really really important that our government
01:38:09.960 is doing and there's and and the banking sector but there's also something that just bothers me a great
01:38:17.060 deal and i can't put my finger on it yet and i want to share that in one minute
01:38:21.340 pound for pound unless you are an international spy driving is probably one of the most dangerous things
01:38:32.440 you do for any extended period of time during your day a lot of rides literally a lot of it just is on
01:38:39.600 the ability and the trust that you have that your car is going to get you from place to place safely

01:39:46.400 station id
01:39:46.980 all right i i want to go back to something that we talked about earlier uh today um and that is
01:40:05.440 what's happening with the banking sector the dow is down how much i know it opened about 700 points down
01:40:14.900 today um and down 540 currently so it was way up yesterday way down the day before way up before that
01:40:26.100 um this is going to be an unstable ride anywhere uh anywhere from give me 20 off the high stew
01:40:39.400 what it was about uh 29 so it was 24 yeah i mean it you know about that uh you you you know obviously
01:40:50.140 that's that's kind of the technical recession term about 23 2 so i think that anything that we see
01:40:57.080 around 20 doesn't really concern me um it is not good but it's also the world hasn't seen something
01:41:06.560 like this when it starts to go down you know closer to 30 when it starts to get down to
01:41:14.060 you know dow 20 000 then we're talking about some real trouble and i think we might hit those things
01:41:21.740 because airlines are starting to have to um take losses uh the cruise industry is going to take huge
01:41:29.540 losses all of these things they just moved the um the bond movie because that movie they think the
01:41:37.880 theaters are going to be empty this spring and they probably will be so all of the industry that
01:41:44.720 requires you to go out all restaurants everything else they're going to take a real hard hit anything
01:41:51.780 that you can get delivered to your house will be better uh but we're gonna we're gonna change the
01:42:00.000 economy if this continues to go for a long time we're going to change the economy into a very isolated
01:42:05.280 style economy now the imf chief yesterday called for a quote all outs no regrets response to the epidemic
01:42:15.120 which poses quote a serious threat to the global economy at a time of uncertainty
01:42:21.360 quoting quoting it's better to do more than to do not enough all right this is good but here's the problem
01:42:29.260 we what what is it that this is going to do right now except use all of the bullets you have in your gun
01:42:39.460 you know that was the problem with the fed the fed started to use all of the bullets in their gun
01:42:46.700 uh and there there's not going to be anything left afterwards
01:42:52.660 we're already moving uh the fed rate down they're asking for more uh in fed cuts and more for the central
01:43:04.960 banks at some point nothing's going to have an effect anymore it's like an overuse of antibiotics
01:43:14.200 the the central bank cuts are like antibiotics to the economy and after a while they just don't work
01:43:23.100 anymore it's going to be interesting to see now a way the fed cut might be useful is for companies that
01:43:33.040 need to keep their doors open and if they can if they can borrow money at almost zero percent interest rates
01:43:39.080 they can keep their doors open and just hope to make it up later but i i'm concerned that the imf
01:43:49.800 and the fed are just opening up the floodgates at this point that just doesn't seem logical to me
01:43:58.200 or the right move to me what do you think the the percentage of zero to 100 what what percent
01:44:04.300 of the panic that's going on now is just a result of the way these various governments are handling
01:44:10.780 this like and they may be doing it appropriately but like they are signaling to us hey we're closing
01:44:17.040 down all schools in the country of italy like these are situations you wouldn't so i think these are two
01:44:22.720 competing things i think they are you have to do what i think the world is reacting to this
01:44:30.920 in a very positive way an appropriate way yes and i think for medical issues i think they're doing the
01:44:39.000 right thing i think by saying stay at home work from home blah blah i think those are all really good
01:44:45.560 things to do however if i'm the economist in the room and i'm only worried about that because that's
01:44:53.060 my job right i'm like okay you're going to uh you're going to save this but you're going to kill
01:45:01.380 this and what point you know we might be saving in the short term for instance the overwhelm of the
01:45:10.500 system which is it has to be done an overwhelming of the medical system but at the same time while
01:45:16.820 you're saving the medical system you may be killing the economy which drives the medical system you know
01:45:22.900 i mean how do you buy anything when nobody has any money so i think they're just walking this line that
01:45:30.160 has not been walked ever before i'm concerned that the fed moves as quickly as
01:45:39.980 the medical people are moving because the medical people have more bullets in their gun
01:45:46.540 than the fed does you're listening to glenn back american financing nmls 1-82334 www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org
01:45:56.400 now while these rates are so low i want you to do the financially responsible thing right now
01:46:03.660 if you could save money on your mortgage or if you can consolidate and save a thousand dollars a month
01:46:12.260 that'd be the smartest thing you could do right now you really need to get prepared for what could
01:46:18.880 be coming economically to your life your world you do it without panic you do it you know when nobody
01:46:27.520 else is thinking about it while everybody else is thinking about toilet paper may i suggest
01:46:32.420 you refi your loan may i suggest you go back in and look at your mortgage and see if you can you can
01:46:40.220 flip it and get a better mortgage rate right now american financing will do a mortgage reveal

01:47:02.020 dot net before obsessing uh about the coronavirus was cool glenn did a special on it you can watch
01:47:11.380 it at blaze tv.com slash glenn use gb20 for 20 bucks off welcome to the glenn beck program it is
01:47:23.780 thursday and what a week it's been and we've had the uh we've had super tuesday changed the world
01:47:29.680 uh looks like elizabeth warren has just dropped out we saw the latest poll in florida this is with
01:47:37.220 elizabeth warren and michael bloomberg still in the race those two are both gone it shows
01:47:43.240 biden winning with i think 61 of the 61 of the vote and bernie came in two with 12 i will say actually
01:47:54.280 bernie came in third place behind bloomberg so bloomberg now not in the race warren not in the
01:48:00.460 race like it i in my entire life watching politics i have never seen a bigger turnaround in a campaign
01:48:07.980 than this one you've seen stuff like you know there were issues like john mccain for example
01:48:12.900 had to fire all of his advisors yeah uh but that was like 2007 yeah and then he turned it around before
01:48:19.260 people started voting so this is after the voting started it's incredible i want you to realize
01:48:24.320 that this is the time i warned you about i mean i just met with my producers yesterday and said
01:48:30.400 hey we need to go through everything because this is like glenn beck prediction central right now
01:48:36.840 everything that is happening so much of it we talked about 10 years ago uh and the biggest one is
01:48:44.360 there's going to come a day when you don't recognize the country when everything you thought
01:48:50.260 was solid will be liquid and everything liquid will be solid you will not be able to predict it
01:48:55.400 and you will be overwhelmed by the the events of the day i want you to get used to saying this
01:49:02.820 i've never seen this before in my lifetime it is going to get worse and worse and every day
01:49:11.300 you will say that both good and bad let me give you a good from yesterday we didn't even have chance
01:49:18.280 to talk about this we did a podcast a few years a few uh months ago uh with a uh what's his name brown
01:49:27.380 uh he's a futurist and he was talking about crisper and how medicine is going to change overnight
01:49:37.080 and i brought up that you know socialized medicine is a thing of the past and because of technology
01:49:44.180 you're not going to have to worry about all of the high cost of things or going to the doctor
01:49:50.180 because they will be able to um they'll be able to diagnose you from home and you're going to want
01:49:56.600 to have ai over a real doctor so jeff brown said well it's like crisper right now with eyes i said what
01:50:05.220 he said we're about a year away from uh announcing that we can cure blindness well yesterday that test
01:50:12.680 was done on the first patient and what they did is the doctor made a little teeny slit in the um
01:50:19.140 uh in the eye of one patient who has been blind put three drops of you know a crisper made
01:50:28.420 you know some i don't even know how this works but it's it's it it if you knew how it worked you
01:50:34.520 would have invented it already i know i don't even know how it works but the crisper takes and instead
01:50:39.040 of taking uh genes and uh things out of a body and then trying to fix them it just goes in you just
01:50:47.900 put a little bit of this this liquid in and it goes and seeks out the problem in your brain and or in
01:50:55.180 your body and it fixes any of the cells or anything that are broken and it kills the problem and fixes it
01:51:02.920 so they they just put three drops of this stuff in the guy's eye and they believe that in the next
01:51:10.560 few weeks he will have sight that we will have cured in his case one kind of blindness jeff brown
01:51:19.920 was saying we're probably going to cure blindness in the next year or two almost all blindness
01:51:27.120 so i've never seen that before in my life no there's a lot of good things that are happening
01:51:33.440 and it will seem incredible that we ever let it happen yeah right like you know it's like when we
01:51:39.180 everyone looks back at that story of the doctor who was like hey guys you know everyone's dying here
01:51:44.220 and but they're not dying in that other hospital and they're washing their hands over there we're not
01:51:48.820 here what do you think we wash our hands in between surgeries that's crazy cadavers and dealing with
01:51:53.300 the cadavers what do you think and they're like oh that's crazy and we look back at that wouldn't just
01:51:56.540 mock it right how in 10 15 years we're going to look back at the time where these things like
01:52:02.880 blindness or the idea that even a global pandemic could occur may very well seem ridiculous to us
01:52:10.060 kind of like how it you know in a way the spanish flu does right from you know 1918 you're wiping out
01:52:15.340 like huge percentages of the population it doesn't seem possible now in some ways well this would can
01:52:21.680 you imagine how much worse this would be if we didn't have the communication that we have now
01:52:27.260 uh you know we would have had ship after ship plane after plane after plane come in and we'd all be sick
01:52:33.180 before we'd even realize it because we just didn't have the connections that we do today and be able
01:52:38.680 to track things and figure out wait a minute why is everybody getting sick and wait it everybody's
01:52:43.280 getting sick over in china first um it would have been you know witchcraft uh almost compared to where
01:52:49.960 we are today but that's one of the things that i think you really have to understand is we you're
01:52:56.420 seeing things today that you've never seen before on this and i dare i say it pandemic we're not by the
01:53:05.160 way my gut is they're not calling this a pandemic because that triggers all kinds of legal things
01:53:10.600 and nobody wants to make the call on okay well pandemic means this legally and so all the insurance
01:53:20.260 companies and everybody else you're screwed so i think that's why this is not being called a pandemic
01:53:25.700 even though this has met every single uh every single mark for a global pandemic at this point
01:53:33.580 but you're going to see things that you don't understand and you have to put them into context
01:53:38.500 yeah i can contextually is i think where my you know a lot of people's fear is coming from
01:53:43.040 right where you might say okay well we've heard these things before SARS and mirrors and we've heard
01:53:47.780 all of these bird flu and swine flu and you know they're scary and everything but like what are you
01:53:52.680 going to do you normally just kind of step back and say you throw your hands up and you don't worry
01:53:56.840 about it what's interesting about this one i think that's different than all of those
01:54:01.060 is the way governments companies are reacting to it right where first we saw this in china where
01:54:10.400 they're you know they're welding people inside of apartment buildings like we but this is china
01:54:14.580 it's a communist country they shut down a city of how many 11 million people that's really strange
01:54:20.240 but still okay it's china they do really crazy things and they got a little bit of criticism from
01:54:25.640 the SARS thing where they didn't you know clamp down on it fast enough so maybe they're overreacting
01:54:30.200 when you see a country like italy say all of our schools are closed in the entire country
01:54:39.420 that is like that that hits you at a totally different level we're seeing now is a king county
01:54:45.860 in seattle yeah is basically telling everyone in the county now this is this is the king county is
01:54:52.880 the seattle county seattle county yeah you know what don't go anywhere stay inside to 2.2 million
01:54:59.120 people that are being asked by king county that's they're not they're not requiring it right they're
01:55:04.240 just asking they're asking all 2.2 million residents don't leave your house now when's it'll work when
01:55:09.320 is the last time you remember a request like that well i don't remember it being a request the only time
01:55:15.060 i can think of that i heard a city and it wasn't a city that size in america being told do not leave
01:55:22.240 your house was the boston shooters the boston bombing sarnovs yeah the right and why because
01:55:29.700 we had active terrorists driving around the city setting things on fire letting off bombs and
01:55:35.180 shooting people and so and i believe it was actually technically legally still a request uh that but
01:55:41.620 everyone kind of listened because we really don't want to be outside with the terrorists we want the
01:55:45.180 cops to be able to find these guys and they did okay so if you're comparing it to that i can see why
01:55:50.000 you panic and that is normal to panic when it's like that because you're like oh there's something
01:55:55.320 outside that can kill me right right all right so that's not what they're actually doing what they're
01:56:01.680 actually doing is if this that if everybody goes outside and everybody starts to get sick because
01:56:10.040 they're passing it around if you get sick what are you going to do go to the doctors go to the doctor
01:56:15.920 the doctor right now there's nothing the doctor can tell you your average doc can't tell you anything
01:56:22.260 except you know what stay at home stay at home it does i don't think it's the coronavirus but i can't
01:56:28.380 test you for it because we don't have that if it's really bad you know you got to go to the hospital and
01:56:34.020 they can test you for it okay so if you're if you are 60 plus and you're having real problems or if you
01:56:41.660 have you know any kind of complex complications you should go to the hospital call in advance and
01:56:48.800 your doctor will do that well now that you've gone to the doctor if you do have coronavirus
01:56:52.660 you now have risked everyone in the waiting room who is there for another reason plus the nurses plus
01:57:02.320 the doctor and if we're all doing that with our doctors the doctors are getting sick the ambulance
01:57:10.420 drivers are getting sick the the firemen the police all of the people that make all of our health
01:57:16.540 system work are going to get sick all right you can't have them sick and you can't overwhelm the system
01:57:25.060 and so for your long-term protection they're saying there is something out here that will kill us
01:57:32.460 and that is all of our emergency people being overwhelmed and sick so please stay at home
01:57:41.220 it's why they are putting that why these cities are saying you know what let's let's buy an old
01:57:47.860 motel seattle just bought an old motel two of them i think and said we're going to put people in there
01:57:53.720 that we think have the coronavirus we're going to isolate them there why so they're not in the hospital
01:58:00.280 well they should be in the hospital no if they need to be in icu yes unfortunately if they go to
01:58:09.360 the hospital they can get somebody who just is on kidney dialysis sick right because they're also
01:58:15.680 surrounded by everybody else who is in the most vulnerable position to this exactly right virus
01:58:20.100 remember you have a good chance of dying if you have another complication so if you're already in
01:58:26.220 the hospital because of something that is not related to coronavirus if that patient gets it
01:58:32.880 they're going to die so what you're seeing here is the protection of the system and i think that's
01:58:39.800 really important it is it is yeah so you're saying in a way it's almost like they are incentivized to
01:58:46.740 heighten your worry a little bit right because if they if they if they were to downplay it right that
01:58:54.440 would be bad because then people wouldn't care and they wouldn't uh take any precautions but i don't
01:58:59.700 think that they're heightening it at all i think they're telling you the truth nobody is saying oh my
01:59:04.160 gosh there's a killer pandemic out there and we're all gonna die what they're saying is this we need the
01:59:10.400 masks so they they're telling you on one hand they're telling you uh you know the masks don't work
01:59:17.320 well yes they do and how do i know because by the next sentence we need the masks at the hospital
01:59:24.900 okay so if they don't work why do the hospital need them that's good okay but they're what they're
01:59:31.060 saying to you they're using this language because they know a lot of dummies will say well i need that
01:59:38.060 mask i gotta have that mask because i'm going to work and i've got to have that mask i'm going to travel
01:59:42.880 on a plane they're telling you instead don't travel on the plane don't go to work don't use
01:59:48.380 the mask you probably don't even know how to use it and if you're walking around and you don't know
01:59:53.480 how to use it it's not going to help you anyway but the people who are on the front lines because
01:59:58.740 of you dummy hoarding the masks those people have to have a mask because they have people like
02:00:06.020 you will be because you didn't know how to use the mask coming in and going doc i think i'm sick
02:00:12.680 they have to have a mask because you are going to go in and cough on their face and then when
02:00:19.780 they're gone who replaces them if 30 of our medical and emergency personnel are sick do you know what
02:00:27.620 that does to america do you know what that does to you and your family this is why they're saying stay
02:00:33.440 home it's not a panic we're all gonna die they're trying to protect the system so we don't all die
02:00:42.580 because we were all stupid not because of the coronavirus
02:00:46.620 if you don't know your numbers you do not know your business you've heard me say this quite a bit
