i had covid and 2019. before i got covid there were doctors on the steps of congress and they were presenting solutions to the problem on cnn and they were ridiculed for doing this and they were saving lives. i got covid before the vaccines. my case was mild. they prescribed vitamin d inseam. they monitored me and i stayed home. when they came out with the trump came out with. they had other treatments prior to that coming out. that never should have been approved. now you are telling me this stuff is supposed to save you. i have had just as many of my friends that pass. they were older, they were overweight. they died from covid. they had the vaccines and they did not save them. you have to keep yourself in shape. i don't think the cloth masks do anything. i don't wear masks unless they are required by the facilities. if you are asking me if i trust the cdc? there is no way i trust the cdc because of what they put out. guest: on the first issue of fda approving particular drugs. i agree that hydroxychloro

i'm terrified of him getting covid. they have high covid rates. we have principals and teachers in our school that don't mask and most of them do. my family got covid three or four weeks after the mask mandate was removed last year, so this affects me personally and affects all of our communities and you can -- i know you know the right thing to do is reinstate the indoor mask mandate in the city and county of san francisco. and you cannot continue to build your careers on basically maintaining a poll tee that has that, have resulted in people getting sick and dying. policy needs to be reinstituted, needs to be instituted again now. the time to do this is now. we need people with courage to serve on this commission. we need people to show courage who are serving on this commission. we need that mask mandate right away and prince george's county mr. mayor land, their schools have reinstated a mask mandate, private schools in san francisco reinstated the mask mandate back in may and many are this fall. it's not fair for our public school students wh

covid didn't exist if you're rich enough. maybe covid is scared of money. i'm not sure.ms like everyone flying on private jets never had to worry about covid ever, it's just the people at the bottom who had to worry about covid. it's interesting, right, life has always been two-tiered, this separation in regards to physical access. i think a lot of people in the world don't realize that it still exists, and the rules are only the rules for a certain class of people. once you pass a certain wealth index you can do whatever you want. covid highlighted that to me. it's truly sad. it's easy to make a joke of it, but when i would fly on a private jet, do whatever i wanted, go to sweden, party in nightclubs, do what i wanted, and come to england, and see my friend who couldn't see his dying mother because of a covid restriction, that's criminal. it's crazy what's happened, how the world has moved on, and cognitive dissonance that people don't have enough respect for themselves and analyze how they were easily fooled. it's really sad to even think about. maybe that was the begi

covid. several bart board members expressed frustration that the health departments of the county served by bart remain silent about mask mandates and don't respond to bart requests for when the health departments are thinking regarding masks. upon it is not right that the san francisco health commission stays silent at covid numbers shore unchecked. remember this public hasn't is the name of your department. please lead, live up to the words public health. please put this place an indpoor mask requirement for san francisco. read beyond the misleading headlines in the chronicle and see hospitalizations long covid cases reinfection numbers are rising. thank you very much. >> thank you for your comment. next caller, let us know you are there. >> hello. >> yes. begin. >> okay. as far as the monkeypox, i theme we get very aggressive with this and shut this down. so that it does not go wild like is happen with covid. and as the last commenter stated, everybody is waiting for the public health off

there have been setbacks with covid. host: covid is what he will be known for most. caller: this is a new. i did not expect him to nail it 100%. there will be bumps in the road, it is science. you test ideas, some fail, you come up with new ideas. some succeed. you have to expect a couple bumps in the road. a couple mistakes about covid. thank goodness they were not that big. this could have been way worse. it could be on a way different level. overall, big picture, sure, they made mistakes, but who does not? one year, pretty awesome. host: to los angeles -- that was a call from los angeles we take you back to march of 2021, then president trump and dr. fauci did not agree on everything when it came to the fight against covid. it was a press briefing you can still find online peer dr. fauci is asked about president trump's promotion of hydrochloric wind, calling it a game changer in the fight against covid-19. here is dr. fauci's response.

in july, over 12,000 americans died from covid-19. have pandemic fatigue, that does not take away from the fact that we are still losing people every single day. people are becoming severely ill and/or getting long covid like we mentioned in c. fortunately, hhs and the federal government have extended resources in addressing long covid. people can go to covid.gov and look up long covid research and clinics to find resources if they are a loved one need it. karina: we discussed when talking about kids getting covid is we don't know the long-term effects on kids yet, so if we can prevent it, there is a good reason why. even though we think kids are not going to get to sick, they are not impacted as much, right? dr. patel: absolutely. death is not the only metric. we hear people say a small percentage of individuals die of covid-19. that is true, but long covid still plagues at lot out there. also children or anyone with underlying medical conditions if it's diabetes, asthma, whatever it may be, those conditions can be exacerbated by cov

right on the eve of covid, u.s. production was at an all-time high, almost 13 million barrels per day. as covid hit, oil prices collapsed, oil production started to fall. in april of 2020, march april -- march and april of 2020, president trump helped to essentially broker a deal between saudi arabia and russia and other members of opec and that countries that work with them that lead to a 10 million barrel per day cut in oil production in 2020. fast-forward forward to today, this month, that 10 million per barrel a day cut -- oil demand before covid was 100 million barrels per day it it was a very substantial cut on the part of saudi arabia, russia, and their partners. that cut has now been made up, for the most part, for those who can. but again, some countries who cut back in 2020 -- angola, nigeria -- they cannot produce as much as they can before because of a decline in investment. host: after the president did this, was there still a glut of supply? guest: absolutely. the amount of oil put into storage skyrock

there was a pipeline but covid-19 occurred. thousands of public health workers, many of them, because it was not a favorable environment to work in, we have seen unfortunate threats to public health so we have seen an exodus from the front lines in terms of workers. we need to increase the workforce. there is desire for people to go into the field and we need to make sure we ramped up the workforce. host: ron in new hampshire. caller: thank you for taking my call. the response for covid-19 is the single most consequential public health failure in our lifetime. a million people have died needlessly. dave u.s. has more covert deaths that and -- any other country. we are nearing three years into the pandemic yet most people do not even know that the most effective way to prevent infection spread from the virus is a worn west greater -- is a properly they did not have to die all if we have done it right. many other countries have a tiny fraction of the death rate that the u.s. has. and yet are three years into the pandemic. most pe

we had a strong demand surge late 2020, 20201 -- host: post-covid -- guest: post-covid. that demand has eased in response to high prices. another key factor in the recent easing of prices is the economic slowdown in china, which typically has been the biggest source of oil demand. that has had a big impact on easing prices as well. host: explained that, what is happening in china that impacts us going to the pump in the united states. guest: it is a global market. everyone pays the same price for crude oil, essentially. china, the second-biggest oil market in the world and the most important in terms of oil demand growth in the past decade -- china has had this zero covid policy. i think they now call it dynamic covid policy. but it led to shutdowns of import parts of the economy in china, particularly in march, april, and may, in shanghai and in other parts as well, and that slowed the recovery in china. china was the first to recover after covid. but then this year, the return of bouts of covid in key cities slowed china's economy. the property market in china, a key e

that does not give the cdc a pass in terms of what is going on in terms of covid.t is important to recognize that this is an agency that needs to do many things at the same time, and cannot just be an agency responding to covid and the pandemic. in terms of what needs to occur, some of the external factor -- factors that dr. listed are essential. the cdc has a very little discretion on how it spends its budget. when there is a new crisis the cdc director has almost no resources to direct towards addressing the crisis until congress acts. that is different from other agencies. the nih has billions of dollars at its discretion that it can put towards a new challenge. that needs to change so the cdc can be the rapid response agency that the director is lifting up. in addition, the cdc needs authorities that will require states to report to the agency. during covid there has been great data coming out of the group at hopkins, terrific data. but our nation's public health agency needs to have data coming directly to it and much better data than we have been seeing durin

can't really separate the impact of covid—i9 with the impact of covid—i9 with the impact of covid—i9is right now. if we were to see in isolation what covid—i9 would have done that question doesn't really happen in the same way but what i can say is all regions have suffered greatly by both the impact of covid—i9 and ukraine crisis but a couple of things come to mind when you try figure this out. firstly, if you see remittances on the rise of remittances globally this could be due to many factors, it could be on the one, simply more money is being made by immigrants and they are standing it away and more are leaving home countries are moving to more prosperous parts of the world by there is an increase with remittances and we see this across the board, something to keep an eye out on. if you look at the trade finance, in a number of regions including africa, and south america, it's only rising, and the more this rises the less businesses in these parts of the world are able to be funded, unless growth happens in these of the world, this compounding effect is impacting every society an

retirement due to covid, etc.. what can we do to relieve health care worker burnout so that we do not lose even more health care workers this winter? dr. jha: it is a really good question. when the pandemic first hit, you go back to march, april, may, every health care worker, even those who were on the verge of retirement came back in and said we will work 20 to get the country through this. we got through, i had friends flying in from california to go work in hospitals in new york. we all pulled together. it was exhausting, but we to the summer. the fall and winter were pretty horrible, this is fall of 2021. we got through that, then delta hit this past summer, a year ago and people pulled together. when you have of the health care workforce that is i think at this point pretty spent. when i think about the fall and winter and those questions about the plandemic and flu and covid and how contagious the current code that, i worry. you need health care workers to take care of the appendicitis and car accidents and

that is difficult even before covid.mmunocompromised people face all sorts of challenges in their lives. during covid, it might actually be easier because other people are being more protective of other people, even voluntarily when there is a disease afoot. this may make the lives of immuno compromised people safer simply because there are less random interactions with other people. so, i do not think -- there are two premises of the question. a value premise and a fact question. i think they are incorrect at the heart of the question. my goal has always been to protect life. that is why i went to medical school to begin with. why else would i do that? i think the economics of it are not an irrelevant thing that you can throw away and say, ok, that has no effect. the main reason i care about economics is because it is fundamentally important to people living long, healthy lives. >> do you have anything you would like to say about that? >> i think the question has already been answered in an excellent way. two things. fi
