=== Doctors And Fatal Viruses (02:33) ===

[00:00:00]  I'll tell you what does disturb me is not people who differ with me on hydroxychloroquine.
[00:00:06]  It is people who differ with me on the lockdown.
[00:00:11]  It is so obvious that the harm being done to people and the world is so much greater than the coronavirus itself.
[00:00:18]  By now, there should be no question.
[00:00:21]  There is no moral, health, rational, economic reason.
[00:00:28]  To keep California, Pennsylvania, Michigan closed.
[00:00:35]  It's like we have a different perception of life if we differ on that.
[00:00:48]  The harm that is being done.
[00:00:51]  Do you remember the U.S. aircraft carrier, which had a lot of sailors aboard who had the coronavirus?
[00:01:00]  Here's the latest report, Wall Street Journal.
[00:01:05]  The medical team warned, this just came out, that there was a high probability that up to 1% of the roughly 4,800-member crew, that's 50 or more sailors, could die.
[00:01:19]  Are you with me, folks?
[00:01:20]  This is what the doctors, the doctors, did you hear that?
[00:01:26]  Physicians predicted 50 or more sailors will die on this ship.
[00:01:32]  We will not stand by while our fellow sailors continue to be exposed to this fatal virus.
[00:01:38]  Fatal virus.
[00:01:39]  Fatal means you will die from it.
[00:01:42]  The time has come for aggressive measures to be taken.
[00:01:46]  All right.
[00:01:47]  You know how many died on that ship?
[00:01:52]  One.
[00:01:56]  They were wrong by a factor of 50. There's a statement in the Talmud, the second holiest book of Judaism, the best doctors go to hell.
[00:02:09]  And the reason was not that doctors are bad people.
[00:02:13]  It's that no profession enables people to have such self-glory.
[00:02:20]  As being a doctor, because no other profession directly saved so many lives.
[00:02:27]  There are a lot of terrific doctors, and there are a lot of doctors who aren't terrific.
[00:02:31]  Not as doctors, as people.
