Those people Biden has chosen for positions in his wanna be administration are Leftist/communist/globalists and are out to destroy the middle class and kill the elderly. As to the latter ‘Older Americans, the ones most vulnerable to COVID-19, should be the last in line to receive a vaccine when it becomes available, according to an argument put forth by one of Joe Biden’s top health advisers.
The Federalist reports Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel, who serves on Biden’s coronavirus task force, seemed to suggest in a September article that Americans over 75 should wait for the vaccine out of “fairness” to the rest of the world.
Emanuel, who also was an adviser to the Obama administration, has faced criticism for years for promoting ageist arguments. A bioethicist at the University of Pennsylvania, he wrote an article about how he wants to die by age 75 because life is not worth living past that point. He suggested other older Americans should consider “whether our consumption is worth our contribution.” He also wrote a piece in the New York Times encouraging Americans to “Skip Your Annual Physical.”
Now, he appears to be promoting a plan that would deny the coronavirus vaccine to those most vulnerable to die from the virus: elderly Americans. A vaccine could be available within the next several months after two companies announced final testing on a coronavirus vaccine this fall.
According to The Federalist:
In a Science article in September, in which Emanuel argued for distributing vaccine doses overseas out of “fairness” and argued against “vaccine nationalism” in which countries kept “too much” of the vaccine for themselves, he wrote, “we propose using Standard Expected Years of Life Lost (SEYLL) averted per dose of vaccine as the metric for premature death.”
This method renders the lives of people who have already lived beyond their country’s life expectancy as valueless. In the CDC’s definition, the cut-off is even sooner: only deaths occurring before age 75 are deemed “premature” and counted towards “years of potential life lost.” Yes, the very vaccine priority model Emanuel proposes would exclude those over age 75 from receiving a COVID vaccine, at least until availability is widespread and no shortages exist, globally.
It’s not clear if that also would apply to Biden, who is about to turn 78.’https://www.lifenews.com/2020/11/16/biden-coronavirus-advisor-people-older-than-75-should-get-vaccines-last/
