Pope's New Doc says CÖVÌD is a ''normal disease''

  • VATICAN CITY — The Vatican has announced that Pope Francis’ new personal doctor is Professor Roberto Bernabei, a specialist in geriatrics who in November said CÖVÌD-19 is a “normal disease” and that deaths related to the virus are “almost always” the elderly with at least three pre-existing conditions.

    Reportedly a highly respected gerontologist in Italy who teaches internal medicine and geriatrics at the Catholic University of the Sacred Heart in Rome, Bernabei told the Italian television channel La7 Nov. 6 that “if this disease targets old people it is a very serious thing, of course. But it is, how to say, a normal disease… Infectious diseases unfortunately attack the most vulnerable.”

    He pointed out that according to the latest figures he had seen in November, 25% of those infected were aged 70 and over, but they made up 90% of the deaths. “Practically only and exclusively old people die [from the virus],” Bernabei said, adding that “the average age” of those had died since March “exceeds 80 years and they have at least three pathologies.

  • Interesting thought experiment. 

    Imagine if the governments of the world had said, it is what it is, old people should do what they can to protect themselves everyone else keep going to work the economy is all important and we cannot shut it down and lock people up without causing huge problems down the line. We have to keep working to pay to fight climate change which is a much bigger threat. 

    500,000 Americans had died and someone calculated that the government has saved billions in unfunded liability like medicare and pensions.   Young people pay taxes old people consume them. 

    Would Trads and other conservatives accuse said governments of euthanasia?  Putting the economy above life?

    There is nothing to compare the 500,000 deaths to other than a computer model of what would have happened if we locked down instead.

    Worth considering.
