The point being, that your Legacy Media bullshit articles always put stuff like this in there when they have an agenda to push.

"Oh... The people reading this article probably don't understand the issue. That's okay. Just put something completely unrelated in there that will make them rage and then they'll just believe whatever we say because our readers are stupid."

Russian Intelligence Agencies Push Disinformation on Pandemic
Declassified U.S. intelligence accuses Moscow of pushing propaganda through alternative websites as Russia refines techniques used in 2016.
https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/28/us/politics/russia-disinformation-c
oronavirus.html


Russian intelligence services have been spreading disinformation about the coronavirus pandemic, according to newly declassified intelligence, material that demonstrates how Moscow is continuing to try to influence Americans as the election draws closer.

Russian military intelligence, known as the G.R.U., has used its ties with a Russian government information center, InfoRos, and other websites to push out disinformation and propaganda about the pandemic, such as amplifying false Chinese arguments that the virus was created by the United States military and articles that said Russia’s medical assistance could bring a new détente with Washington.

The disinformation efforts are a refinement of what Russia tried to do in 2016. The fake social media accounts and bots used by the Internet Research Agency and other Russia-backed groups to amplify false stories have proved relatively easy to stomp out. But it is far more difficult to stop the spread of news articles that appear on websites that appear legitimate, according to outside experts.

“Russian intelligence agencies are taking a more central role in disinformation efforts that Russia is pushing now,” said Laura Rosenberger, the director of the Alliance for Securing Democracy. “It is not the blunt force” of the operations mounted by the Internet Research Agency.

Two American officials described the newly declassified intelligence but would not provide the underlying reports about the activities of the G.R.U. and the S.V.R., Moscow’s equivalent of the C.I.A. They discussed the information on the condition of anonymity.

While the disinformation efforts outlined by U.S. officials on Tuesday were focused on the pandemic, security researchers said Russia continued to push disinformation on a variety of topics.

Goodbye, kind world (George Monbiot) - In common with all those generations which have contemplated catastrophe, we appear to be incapable of understanding what confronts us.


Despite his abysmal rhetoric and mostly backwards response to SARS-COV-2, Trump has done some extraordinary things right.

BORDER CLOSURES

Once again, I give him credit for closing the borders to people coming from places with high infection levels - first China (despite democrats calling him racist), then Iran, the European Schengen area, the UK, Ireland, and Brazil. https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/travelers/from-other-countri
es.html


The original China ban was (obviously) too little, too late. But the idea was more than sound. And it was well-worth repeating.


VACCINE INVESTMENT

He's also invested more than a billion of government money into the Oxford / AstraZeneca vaccine quite early, to secure the first 300M doses. https://bgr.com/2020/05/21/coronavirus-vaccine-us-secures-oxford-astra
zeneca-covid-19-drug-supply
/

And if you believe the news, the US government is invested in 6 vaccines total. https://www.cnn.com/2020/06/22/health/us-coronavirus-vaccine-funding/i
ndex.html


Rhetoric aside, this is all extremely good ACTION on Trump's part. By his actions, he apparently understands that the virus is a threat, and the way to ultimately defeat it is vaccination. And sooner is far better than later. (Though scientifically this is still a gamble, nevertheless, Trump has put significant money on the table.)


FINE CHEMICALS PRODUCTION INVESTMENT

"Eastman Kodak received a $765 million U.S. government loan under the Defense Production Act to help produce ingredients for drugs"
Quote:

Kodak Soars After Government Loan To End China Medical Supply Chain Reliance

In an apparent retaliation over rising rhetoric over the "China Virus" in April, American firms producing medical goods in China were slapped with new export restrictions, stranding much of the supplies in warehouses across the country.

This move highlighted to many just how precarious the US medical supply chain was, and more critically, how dependent on new 'Enemy #1' China the American healthcare system was.

As we detailed previously, according to research and US Congressional hearings, something like 80% of present medicines consumed in the United States are produced in China. This includes Chinese companies and foreign drug companies that have outsourced their drug manufacture in joint ventures with Chinese partners. According to Rosemary Gibson of the Hastings Center bioethics research institute, who authored a book in 2018 on the theme, the dependency is more than alarming.

Gibson cites medical newsletters giving the estimate that today some 80% of all pharmaceutical active ingredients in the USA are made in China.

“It’s not just the ingredients. It’s also the chemical precursors, the chemical building blocks used to make the active ingredients. We are dependent on China for the chemical building blocks to make a whole category of antibiotics… known as cephalosporins. They are used in the United States thousands of times every day for people with very serious infections.”

The made in China drugs today include most antibiotics, birth control pills, blood pressure medicines such as valsartan, blood thinners such as heparin, and various cancer drugs. It includes such common medicines as penicillin, ascorbic acid (Vitamin C), and aspirin. The list also includes medications to treat HIV, Alzheimer’s disease, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, cancer, depression, epilepsy, among others. A recent Department of Commerce study found that 97 percent of all antibiotics in the United States came from China.

And so, the Trump administration has begun to do something about this over-reliance with today's first of its kind loan "to help expedite domestic production of drugs that can treat a variety of medical conditions and loosen the U.S. reliance on foreign sources."

Somewhat forgotten film-maker Eastman Kodak received a $765 million U.S. government loan under the Defense Production Act to help produce ingredients for drugs.

“We have a long, long history in chemical and advanced materials -- well over 100 years,” Continenza told Dow Jones, adding that they have the infrastructure to begin production quickly.

For the US, the benefit of providing the loan to Kodak is to reduce reliance on other countries, particularly China, for drugs, DFC head Adam Boehler said.

“We don’t ever want to be in a position, because of a pandemic, because of any reason,” that a foreign entity could upend U.S. access to medicines or pharmaceutical products.

And Eastman Kodak shares are a double in the pre-market to its highest since January 2018...

As The WSJ reports, the onetime leader in photography sales is gearing up to produce ingredients for generic drugs, including the antimalarial drug hydroxychloroquine.

He said Kodak will produce “starter materials” and “active pharmaceutical ingredients” used to produce generic medicines, and expects the loan to create around 300 jobs in Rochester, and 30 to 50 jobs in Minnesota.

links to original references found in ZH article
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/kodak-soars-after-government-loan-
end-china-medical-supply-chain-reliance


As Signy has pointed out to exhaustion, over-reliance on foreign manufacturing (especially China), long supply chains, lack of inventory, and just-in-time delivery might be good for the international corporations' bottom lines, but it's not in America's best interests.

Apparently Trump thinks so too.

Fixing a severe US fine-chemicals and pharmaceuticals manufacturing lack, and broken supply-chain is imo vital to US national interests and I think a lot of credit goes to Trump for starting to repair that.

During his campaign to become president, Donald Trump repeatedly claimed that other countries were "laughing" at the United States. Of course, Trump never cited any evidence for this. Today, those countries are treating Americans like lepers. The dark blue US passport used to open pretty much every door around the globe; now those doors are slammed shut. A roll call of some of America's closest allies that won't let Americans visit include Canada, France, Germany and Italy. And for good reason: This past week, 18 American states set records for their numbers of confirmed coronavirus cases. There are now more than four million confirmed cases in the US; a quarter of the total number of known cases in the world, yet Americans make up just over 4% of the global population.

The US missed a chance to control outbreak. Now it's 'impossible to predict' how long the pandemic will last, Fauci says. Without a national effort to adhere to preventative measures, the nation's top infectious disease doctor said, it will be impossible to predict how much longer the Covid-19 pandemic will last in the United States.

The Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation increased its forecast to 219,864 total deaths by November, in part because the nation continues to debate measures like wearing masks and social distancing. Regularly taking such precautions is especially important given that a backlog in getting test results is rendering some coronavirus testing practically useless.

"It shouldn't be acceptable" that US testing is so backlogged, assistant Secretary for Health at the US Department of Health and Human Services Adm. Brett Giroir said Thursday. But, he said, "you can't test your way out of this," and people should wear masks, avoid crowds and avoid being indoors with others.

People will need to get the vaccine in order for it to protect them, and even those who aren't deterred by existing conspiracy theories around vaccines could be scared off even by the project's name, Bill Gates said Thursday.

"We certainly need people to be rational about vaccines. They eradicated smallpox, they saved millions and millions of lives," he said. "They are very complex to design, and that's why, you know, saying it's being done at Warp Speed is a little scary, because you really need to do the safety checks very, very carefully," said the founder of Microsoft and co-chair of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

Report: Why Kushner's Covid-19 testing plan 'went poof into thin air'

According to a Vanity Fair report, White House senior adviser, Jared Kushner, was working on a secret national testing plan in the spring to help bring the spread of Covid-19 under control.
www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2020/07/31/kushner-national-testing-plan-w
hite-house-coronavirus-vanity-fair-report-ebof-vpx.cnn


What happened to the national plan?

Most troubling of all, perhaps, was a sentiment the expert said a member of Kushner’s team expressed: that because the virus had hit blue states hardest, a national plan was unnecessary and would not make sense politically. “The political folks believed that because it was going to be relegated to Democratic states, that they could blame those governors, and that would be an effective political strategy,” said the expert.
