Is Trump such a sociopath that he's willing to let people die in states he doesn't like? Trump told Hannity he 'has a feeling' we won't need that many ventilators even as infection numbers arc sharply upward and thousands of Americans are already dead. The first American teen to die from Covid suffered a related heart attack after being turned away from treatment because he didn't have health insurance. How is this possible in the richest country in the world? And what kind of man is leading this obscene parade?
And Peter Maybarduk- the director of Global Citizen's 'Global Access to Medicine' group- joins Thom live. What is the status of the medical supply chains around the world as countries close their borders- and how will that affect the deployment of treatments for the pandemic? Did Gilead sciences try to game the system to price gouge the world for a possible treatment they have? Should we be reviving American pharmaceutical manufacturing like what we used to have in Puerto Rico? And how could the Defence Production Act be applied to cranking out a possible treatment?
Plus Thom's callers digest the issues ranging from the pandemic to Joe Biden to the gold standard to Latvian fake news to the reality or unreality of the stock market.
