>> I think it a sin to turn a medicine into a political ploy.

Same here, and that’s why I’ve been so outraged since it was done in the case of HCQ. It cost untold numbers of lives, without any doubt at all. Political stubbornness.

I believe there are some doctors in NYC who have a heavy burden to live with.

What I'm continually gobsmacked about, is that Trump has turned mask-wearing, which is one of the main things we can do to beat this virus, into a partisan political issue! About his followers freedumb, rather than all of our freedom not to be exposed to the virus. I'm not 'free' to be naked in public. There are many 'freedoms' we forgo.

It would have been so simple for him to have started wearing a mask when it was recommended. Instead, he highlighted that it was 'voluntary' and he wouldn't be doing it, exactly the opposite of what a leader should do.
