FOR A MAN OF HIS AGE BUT WHAT
HAPPENS WHEN YOU THROW COVID IN
THE MIX?
THE PRESIDENT REPORTEDLY
EXPANDING MINOR SYMPTOMS.
HE’S BEEN PRESCRIBED PAXLOVID
AND HIS PHYSICIANS SAY THESE STOPPED HIS OTHER TWO
STOPPED HIS OTHER TWO
MEDICATIONS FOR PAXLOVID TO TAKE
ITS FULL FIVE-DAY EFFECT.
THAT’S THE BILLS, IT’S ALSO KNOWN TO CAUSE COVID REBOUND.
KNOWN TO CAUSE COVID REBOUND.
THAT’S WHAT FAUCI GOT.
OTHER CONCERNS THIS MEDICATION
COULD HARM THE PRESIDENT?
HERE TO DISCUSS, FOX NEWS
MEDICAL CORRESPONDENT AND COVID
THE POLITICS OF FEAR AND POWER OF SCIENCE, DOCTOR MARC SIEGEL.
OF SCIENCE, DOCTOR MARC SIEGEL.
WELCOME BACK.
>> THOSE WERE NOT GREASY
WINDSHIELDS, IT WAS WIDELY
WINDSHIELDS AND I WONDER IF THE
STATE OF DELAWARE SOMEHOW
IMPLICATED IN THIS.
KENNEDY: I THINK THEY ARE AND
PROBABLY GOING TO SUCCEED FROM
THE PRESSURE BECAUSE THEY
PRODUCE THE PRESIDENT WHO WAS
SUBPAR BUT HOPEFULLY HE’S NOT
UNWELL.
WHAT IS THE ANTIVIRAL HE’S
TAKING AND TO TELL ME ABOUT THE
REBOUND THAT CAN OCCUR.
>> FIRST OF ALL, I DO THINK THE
FACT THAT HE’S HAD FOR VACCINE
SHOTS AND NOW IN ANTIVIRAL
DECREASES HIS RISK OF SEVERE
DISEASE EVEN EVEN AT 79, LET’S
NOT FORGET THE EXPERIENCE ITSELF
MILDER BECAUSE IT DOESN’T GET DEEP INTO THE LUNGS.
DEEP INTO THE LUNGS.
ALL OF THIS GOES WELL BUT HE’S
SUFFERING FROM FATIGUE AND THAT
NEEDS TO BE WASHED.
I AM SURPRISED HE STILL WORKING.
AS PART FAR AS PAXLOVID, THE
ANTIVIRAL, I LIKE IT PATTERNED
AFTER IN HIV DRUG THAT LITERALLY
STOPPED THE VIRUS IN ITS TRACKS
BUT THEN THE VIRUS CAN COME BACK
AND THAT’S WHAT WE SEE WHEN WE
GET REBOUND.
WHAT’S INTERESTING TO ME IS THEY
DIDN’T GIVE THE MONOCLONAL
ANTIBODIES THAT WORK REALLY WELL
HERE.
I’M SURPRISED.
I’M ALSO SURPRISED THEY STOPPED
HIS BLOOD THINNER, THEY COULD
HAVE JUST CUT IT DOWN, INCREASED
RISK OF SOMETHING LIKE A STROKE
BUT THE CHANCES ARE VERY LOW,
VERY LOW.
I EXPECT HIM TO RECOVER AND
EXPECT THIS TO REMAIN MILD CASE
AND I THINK IT’S A TESTAMENT TO
HOW FAR WE’VE COME.
TALK ABOUT MANDATES, MANDATE
COMING BACK?
THIS IS MORE OF A LESSON OF THE
FLU ALL OVER THE WORLD AND FIST
BUMPED EVERYBODY INSIGHT.
THE FIRST LADY WAS WITH HIM,
SHE’S OUT THERE WITH HER
SURGICAL MASK, ALL OF THIS GOING
ON AND WE ARE TALKING MANDATES?
THE LESSON HE’S UNINTENTIONALLY
SENDING IS GET BACK TO LIFE AS
USUAL.
KENNEDY: ABSOLUTELY FOR PEOPLE
WHO HAVE COVID IN OUR WORRIED
AND PEOPLE SENDING THEIR KIDS
BACK TO SCHOOL IN A FEW WEEKS, A
LOT OF SCHOOL DISTRICTS AROUND
THE COUNTRY THAT SHE BEHAVIOR IN
TERMS OF MASK MANDATE REQUIRING
VACCINES FOR STUDENTS, WHERE ARE
WE WITH THE VIRUS IN TERMS OF
WHAT KIDS SHOULD BE DOING?
>> THAT’S ALL THE LEGAL
POSTURING. IT’S NOT PUBLIC HEALTH AND NOT
IT’S NOT PUBLIC HEALTH AND NOT
AGAINST A MASK, I WEAR MASKS IN
CLOSE QUARTERS N95 MASKS BUT
THAT’S MY PERSONAL CHOICE AND I
THINK WHAT WE LEARNED FROM THE
PANDEMIC AS WE SHOULD NEVER HAVE
CLOSED SCHOOLS TO BEGIN WITH,
THAT WAS THE TEACHERS UNIONS AND
IT COST US DEARLY IN TERMS OF
SOCIALIZATION AND DEPRESSION IN
KIDS AND MORE POOR NUTRITION,
SUBSTANCE ABUSE ALL CAME OUT OF
THOSE TERRIBLE DECISIONS.
NOW SCHOOLS ARE REOPENING BUT
VERY YOUNG KIDS DON’T TOLERATE
MASKS FOR THE MOST PART THE
DIVORCE MASKS ON THEM, ANYTHING
ON PEOPLE RIGHT NOW IS A HUGE
MISTAKE PSYCHOLOGICALLY WILL
CONTRIBUTE TO MENTAL HEALTH
PANDEMIC WE ARE CURRENTLY GOING
THROUGH.
KENNEDY: IN TERMS OF SOME OF THE
DATA WE’VE SEEN AND MASK STUDIES
STUDIES, MOST MASKS PEOPLE WHERE
WITH THE FIRST LADY, THEY DON’T
WORK, THEY ARE NOT EFFECTIVE
AGAINST THE VIRUS SO THERE ARE
MANDATES, THE ONLY WAY TO DO IT
IS IF YOU TELL PEOPLE THEY HAVE
TO WEAR A K AND THEY PRIZE OR
N95 MASK?
>> THAT DOESN’T WORK BECAUSE I
DON’T WEAR THEM.
YOU GO TO A RESTAURANT, TAKE
THEM OFF WHEN THEY SIT DOWN.
DON’T PUT THEM ON BETWEEN THE
ADVERTISER AND BANK COURSE, THEY
HAVE THEM OFF WHENEVER THEY HAVE
A DRINK, THEY TAKE IT OFF TO
TALK AND THE MASK YOU ARE
TALKING ABOUT USUALLY IS A
SUBPAR MASK SOMEBODY WEARS
AROUND THEIR CHAIN.
THAT VIRTUE SIGNALING, THAT’S
NOT PUBLIC HEALTH.
THAT’S NOT WHAT WE NEED RIGHT
NOW.
MANDATE JUST GET PEOPLE MORE AND
MORE FATIGUED AND DON’T LISTEN
TO ANYTHING YOU SAY AFTER THAT.
BY THE WAY, RELATED, THIS
VACCINE WORKS BUT WAS MIS-
MESSAGED AS WILL PREVENT SPREAD
AND THEREFORE WE NEED TO MANDATE
IT, THAT WAS A HUGE MISTAKE.
THEY CUT AWAY FROM THE REAL
ISSUE, IT CUTS DOWN ON SEVERITY.
KENNEDY: AND THAT’S OBVIOUSLY
THE PRESIDENT DOCTOR IS SAYING
NOW BECAUSE HE’S BEEN VACCINATED
AND BOOSTED AS YOU POINTED OUT
FOUR SEPARATE TIMES, GOOD CHANCE
HE WON’T HAVE ANY SEVERE ILLNESS
FROM COVID, HE WON’T END UP IN
THE HOSPITAL BUT THAT’S NO
REASON TO HAMSTRING EVERYBODY
WITH MANDATES THAT SIMPLY
HAVEN’T WORKED WE WISH THE
PRESIDENT WELL.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR ADVICE AND
THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE.
>> GREAT TO BE WITH YOU AND
