Ground Truth Host Sam Faddis interviews Dr. Steven Hatfill, one of the world’s leading virologists about how our response to the COVID-19 pandemic has made things worse for all concerned and how our current policies at the southern border may prove disastrous.
Dr. Hatfill, who has been one of the architects of pandemic planning, discusses how the ill-advised lockdown measures have prevented us from achieving herd immunity and have also given the virus more time to mutate, potentially becoming more deadly. Those mutations have been documented and there are several of these mutations that are particularly troubling – including one in South America.
Listen as Dr. Hatfill addresses these points:
- Why did we impose a lockdown on our entire society when no such action had ever been part of planning for dealing with a pandemic?
- Where did that idea originate?
- Is asymptomatic transmission of COVID-19 even possible?
- How fast is the virus mutating and what will be the consequences of our having delayed the achievement of herd immunity?
- What are the consequences of our current policies at the border?
- Do we even have the resources to screen the flood of migrants for COVID-19?
- Are we guaranteeing a surge in COVID-19 cases in the United States?
