Apparently, There was a meeting in the WH with Steve Mnuchin, Mark Meadows, Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schummer. Steve and Mark told Nancy and Chuck that AstraZeneca will have vaccine in September and that it will be given an EUA. Theyare talking about the ChADOX vaccine that Adrian Hill is testing in Brazil and South Africa, It is a 10,000 person trial. Apparently, Peter Marks does not know anything about this and Larry just informed him. Bottom line is that they are going to pressure Steve Han (who likely will cave in in the idea of an EUA) to issue one even though Peter has serius issues with this. An EUA will likely get in the way of completing the RCTs that are going on. Clearly. This is politically driven and will be a ploy for Trump to get reelected. PRESS: Much coverage on CNN of my encounter and confrontation with Jim Jordan. CNN Jim Sciuttto, Don Lemon and Chris Cuomo dumped all over Jordan.

The new approach of jumping on the mostly yellow states that are starting to show a slight increase in percent positive is referred toas the "embers approach" Had conversation with Ian Lipkin. Ian is responsible for the medical/public health aspects of the Democratic Convention in Milwaukee. He called me to go over all the things he has put into place - masks, testing everyone, airflow, limit numbers, physical distance, etc. - to ask if he has missed anything. Seems he has done all he can do. The ; USA -- 4,600,000/154,000. Global USA +,700,000/155,000 decision to hold the convention or not is up to the politicians.

August 2, 2020 (Sunday) - Global - 17,700,000/681,000; USA - 4,600,000/154,000. I was not on any Sunday shows despite requests for from them. Brett Giroir on Meet the Press and Deb on SOTU. POTUS continues to tweet that I am incorrect in what I am saying. He rejects that I say that the USA only shut down by 50+% while EU shut down by 90% and then goes on with the non-sequitur that we have more cases BECAUSE we are testing more. The press in blasting him for supporting the wild woman Stella Immanuel.

August 4, 2020 - Global - 18,000,000/688; USA - 4,700,000/155,000 Amazing Day - We were supposed to have a routine TF meeting today. We were waiting in the Sit Room for a 3:00 PM start and the VP was late at 3:15 PM. Marc Short then came in and said that the POTUS wanted some of us ogo to the Oval Office. We we got there, the entire senior staff was there (everyone). The VP sat the following around the Resolute Desk - me, Deb, Redfield, Giroir, Azar. The POTUS then started eyeing and throwing around the Fuck word: "What the fuck are you people doing? Deb you are saying that the pandemic is now in the rural areas. First the cities, now the rural areas. Where is it now. I am saying we have it under control and you say it is everywhere. Tony, you are always contradicting me. Giroir, you say HC does not work (he said this on SOTU on Sunday). I took it and many good doctors swear by it.The whs fucking message. You need to be positive". Then he started raving that we are seeing more cases only because we are doing more testing. The other countries look good because thery are not testing. At that point, Kellyanne Conway took over and made the point that we can say what we feel is correct, but if it contradicts the pOTUS, they need to hear about it in the Oval or Sit Rooms and not hear about it for the first time on TV. Everyone remained silent. At that point I gifures enough is enough. I said: "Okay Mr. president. We are now in the Oval office and so you need to hear it diretly from me. Increased testing does not cause cases. When you increase testing you will of cours pick up asynptomatics whm you might otherwise not notice. However, when you have increased percent positives and increased hospitalization, and increased deaths, that means that there are truly more cases. He then changed the subject and started talking about the fact that deaths are down. After I broke the ice, then Deb, Redfield, and Giroir chipped in. All in all it was a manifestation that he is desparate and still does not understand the pandemic. Very interesting encounter. After that we went to the Doctors Huddle with Brad Smith and Adam Boehler to talk about tesing and schools. More later. PRESS: ,750,000/156,000. Donald J.

He was his typical arrogant self and rejected RCTs as being flawed and stuck with the observational studies. He maintained: "I am wrong, no one is harmed, if you are wrong, thousands of people die". He denies that HC can have any deleterious effects. His partner on the call was Mark Hatfill (Yikes!)

He admits that I am probably being misquoted, but the press is pitting me against the POTUS. They are trying to drive a wedge between us. My interview with CNN this AM was terrific, and when I saw that it was Mark who was calling I thought that he was calling to tell me that the CNN interview was great. Apparently, I had said yesterday that the virus would not be "eradicated", which is true (only smallpox). This is against what the POTUS said. I explained this to Mark and he seemed to understand that I was saying that it could not be eradicated, but I emphasized that it could be controlled. I suggested that he watch the CNN interview. He stated that the POTUS has a great deal of affection for me and he does not want to see a rift. He said he would watch CNN New Day and get back to me. I may be off TV for a while. Call from Sen. Pat Toomey (R-PA) asking about a few things. Is it a good idea to widely test for antibodies in PA to determine penetrance of infection? I told him yes. Also, questions about use of saliva POC tests. Good conversation. Discussion with Don Milton and Kimberly Prather on aerosols. They are particle and aerosol physicists and it is clear that particles larger than 5 um can aerosol Global - USA including those up to 50 or 100um.
