told CNBC on Wednesday that the United States' latest surge in coronavirus cases has the country following the path of Europe, where intensifying outbreaks has nations such as Germany weighing partial lockdowns.
"We're about maybe three weeks behind Europe. Maybe a month at the most, so we're on a trajectory to look a lot like Europe as we enter the month of November, so I think things are going to get worse," Gottlieb said onThe former U.S. Food and Drug Administration commissioner said the American uptick in cases and hospitalizations has not yet taken on the same tenor as in some European countries because the spread of the coronavirus is more diffuse.
"The density of the epidemic underway in European countries like France, Italy and the U.K. right now far exceeds what's underway in the United States," he said. "For the most part, it's a little bad everywhere in the United States. It's not really, really bad anywhere with the exception of maybe Wisconsin, the Dakotas, Utah."
The problem in the United States is that we never quite got a handle on the virus like Europe and elsewhere did, largely because many people refused to do the simplest thing they could in regards to social distancing or mask wearing.
Please keep driving fear into the weak hearts, so I can keep scooping up their shares on the cheap. 🙏🏻
Call me when ICU rooms are full and over run. El Paso is because of the border jumpers. Other than that it’s empty. Wife icu is empty because of remdesivir. Suits trying to steal your shares. How evil they are. Fake news to steal your money. So bad.
Do the people in Europe think this coronavirus was created in a lab & then sent over to their country just to keep their current President from getting elected again in their upcoming elections. Are is it just the dumb Trump supporters here in America that think that's what's up?
