Seema Verma
Seema Verma is a member of the Coronavirus Task Force under VP Pence. I thought she was a medical doctor or scientist like other members of the Task Force but it turns out she is not. She was appointed by Trump to serve as as administrator of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, the agency that oversees Medicare, Medicaid, and the insurance markets. She should be canned from her position on the Task Force, IMO. Her views and positions are political in nature and not medical or scientific. I watched an interview of her conducted by Martha MacCallum. Martha is obviously very conservative in her political views but she's a very tenacious interviewer and tries to cut through political bull****. She asked Seema Verma if the USA health system has the resources .... beds, respirators, ICU facilities to handle a potential spike in the number of people who become ill with the coronavirus and require extraordinary care. Verma deftly ignored the question and went on and on about how great Trump and Pence are and the great job the task force was doing. Martha tried several times to interrupt Verma and focus back on her question but Verma ignored it over and over. MacCallum became obviously frustrated with her and tried again. Still, Verma refused to directly answer. Martha finally ran out of the interview's allotted time and ended it commenting that Verma never answered the question. The American public needs to hear the truth, not a bunch of political spin. Other members of the Task Force, notably Dr. Anthony Fauci have been much more forthcoming when asked questions and don't try to cover things up. Seema Verma should be held accountable to speak truthfully as well or get off the Task Force. -- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG. https://www.avg.com |
