Biden's CDC pick Dr. Mandy Cohen is basically Dr. Anthony Fauci in drag.
Joe Biden wants former North Carolina health boss Mandy Cohen to head the federal Centers for Disease Control. Gov. Roy Cooper is on record that “anybody would be fortunate to have her,” but Cohen’s advocacy for lockdowns and child masking gives people cause to wonder.
“Someone in the confirmation hearing should ask the new @cdcgov director nominee about how she got the science so consequentially wrong,” tweeted professor Jay Bhattacharya of Stanford medical school. “Lots of bad answers possible.” Cohen’s career before the COVID pandemic is also of interest.
Mandy Cohen earned a degree in policy analysis and management from Cornell, a master’s degree in public health from Harvard, and a medical degree from Yale. How much time Dr. Cohen spent practicing medicine is unclear, and the Ivy League product inclined to bureaucracy and politics.
In 2008, Cohen served as an outreach director for “Doctors for Obama,” which called the Illinois Democrat’s health plan “the best hope for improving quality, controlling health care costs, and guaranteeing access to health care for all Americans.” The doctors and medical students also believed that “Barack Obama is the leader most capable of taking on special interests and advancing a serious, bipartisan effort for healthcare reform.”
After the election, the group was rebranded “Doctors for America,” and Mandy Cohen served as executive director. Cohen also served as chief operating officer and chief of staff at the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.
Obama’s Healthcare.gov was a “major failure” with costs of the dysfunctional website ballooning from $97 million to $1.7 billion. Cohen was reportedly “called upon to fix it,” but accounts of her performance are hard to find. --->READ MORE HERE
The state health officials who put the COVID infected into nursing homes run the federal health bureaucracy.
In March 2020, Dr. Howard Zucker had his name on the infamous ‘Cuomo Death Order’ that has been blamed for the deaths of thousands of nursing residents.
The New York State Health Department’s order stated that “no resident shall be denied re-admission or admission” to a nursing home “solely based on a confirmed or suspected diagnosis of COVID-19.” It even banned nursing homes from testing incoming patients to prevent cases from being detected.
In nursing homes that complied with the order, residents swiftly began dying. By the end of the pandemic, 15% of the state’s nursing home residents were dead.
Over 9,000 infected patients were sent into nursing homes and over 15,000 nursing home residents died. The outcome surprised no one. Christopher Laxton, the head of the Society for Post-Acute and Long-Term Care Medicine, noted that Cuomo and Zucker, “unaccountably failed to include clinical expertise in operational leadership when these policies were formed and we don’t know why.”
New York’s Health Department not only caused the deaths of thousands of people, it tried to cover it up by listing only those who died inside facilities, not those who died after being taken to a hospital. Zucker was aware of the real numbers, but their release was blocked for months to protect Cuomo. It finally took a lawsuit and a judicial order to release and expose the information.
The true numbers boosted the actual death rate between 40% to 68%.
Cuomo aides rewrote Health Department reports to make their boss look good. A Cuomo aide later admitted that the numbers had been kept hidden over fears of a Justice Department investigation into the state’s nursing home deaths. --->READ MORE HEREFollow links below to relevant/related stories and resources:
