In an unprecedented move, the editors of the New England Journal of Medicine have condemned the Trump administration for its response to the Covid-19 pandemic — and calling for the current US leadership to be voted out of office

Poll: Majority of Americans embarrassed by US pandemic response 01:41"We rarely publish editorials signed by all the editors," said Dr. Eric Rubin, editor-in-chief of the medical journal and an author of the new editorial.The editorial, which Rubin said was drafted in August, details how the United States leads the world in Covid-19 cases and deaths. So far, more than 7.

First endorsement for president in publication's 175-year history 03:41"The reason we've never published an editorial about elections is we're not a political journal and I don't think that we want to be a political journal -- but the issue here is around fact, not around opinion. There have been many mistakes made that were not only foolish but reckless and I think we want people to realize that there are truths here, not just opinions," Rubin said.

The New England Journal of Medicine is not the only medical or scientific publication to take a political stance amid the pandemic and ahead of this November's presidential election.In September, the magazine Scientific American announced it was endorsing former vice president and Democratic candidate Joe Biden over President Trump, who it criticized for dismissing science. That announcement marked the publication's first endorsement of a presidential candidate in its 175-year history.

LadyGwright Besides the virus, 'Dithering Don', has chronic 'Schultz Disease' -'I know nothing'. Apparently the only cure is a long holiday on a Scottish golf course.

CNN (China News Network) lies about Trump Response to Covid. Trump response was Excellent: 1) Ban Travel from China 2) Ventilator production 3) Ensuring PPE for Healthcare 4) Getting Rid of Obama era testing limitations 5) Fast Tracking Vaccine and drugs Damn Good

Makes Sense...especially when you consider his Decision to abolish our National Pandemic Team, End American Funding for the World Health Organization during this COVID Pandemic and his Suit to end the Affordable Care Act in the Supreme Court.

Wow, most of the population must be really stupid if they are relying on politicians to stop them getting covid19. And really stupid if, as CNN assert, they follow the advice of foreign 'players' on how they should vote!! Are people really this stupid?

Get him out

YES

He’s following dr. Fauci thoooooo, so they are condemning him as well ?

But who is Taylor Swift endorsing?

This message is for Mitch Moscow shame on you ! shame on you! you are a hypocrite Mitch!! Republicans you are going down along with Donald Trump this coming election - So republicans some of you guys get your back pack ready.

Bold and righteous step, and the moral thing to do. I so agree.

So....just to be clear, the fact that the US has one of the lowest infection to mortality rates globally--in spite of the fact that we put all deaths (cancer, diabetes, old age, etc) if a covid test post-mortem is + reflects poor handling? Interesting. COVID19

FOX LIAR

In an unprecedented move CNN became the most dis loyal rachet news channel there was. 💯👀

hildyjohns wow. What a surprise a liberal 'medical' rag would support the leftist agenda!

Propaganda is communication that's used primarily to influence an audience to further an agenda,which may not be objective by presenting facts selectively to encourage a particular synthesis or perception,using loaded language to produce an emotional rather than rational response

Are these the same people that didn't let him close America's borders?

When you guys gonna officially change your name to the bnn?

They need to get a grip 😂. They’re trying anything and everything to get him out of office.

That's why nobody should listen to the scientist's

Here it's 2020 He's putting on Hillary Email dress with hopes of saving himself.

CNN = BS news

The same 'prestigious' medical journal that published the fake hydroxychloroquine study?

GARBAGE !!! I now only trust journals from SWEDEN as far China virus/Covid-19 response is concerned. *The pandemic is excellently managed in SWEDEN using HERD immunity professionally. *A Swedish should be appointed to Lead World health Organization.

Trump is a fake president. Trump is a fake businessman. Trump is a fake Republican. Trump is a fake Christian. Trump is a fake pro-America. Trump is a fake swamp drainer. Trump is a fake book writer. Trump is a fake university owner. Trump is a faker Corona patient.

Didn’t y’all already try this? 😂

tcevans87

Wow. Another CNN bullshit article. Imagine that..

That’s normal for a medical journal, right?

Fauci couldnt explain this one either

These things might be over their head but worth running by them

Nothing prestigious about ‘em

stoparmenia stopterror prayforgandja

Who cares? 🤣🤣

Democracy Resist ✊

Every scientific journal should do so! Americans should listen to science not an idiot like realDonaldTrump RVAT2020 SenateGOP ProjectLincoln

Nancy Pelosi and Schumer.

yeah

This shit makes me vote republican

SundanceKid610 This is a very political move. What they are trying to do is get back at Trump for making the pharmacudical companies more transparent and lower the costs of their medications.

If the editors of the New England Journal of Medicine knew of miracles to save lives from COVID then why didn’t they share that info and save 200k people?Trump saved at least $700k by blocking entry of Chinese into US. Shame on you editors.

Lyn_Samuels What's even better? WDIV channel 4 Detroit Local4News will now use the terms domestic terrorist and/or domestic terrorist instead of militias. BRAVO. This is what the radical right ideals truly are.

How about this fake news

Political Science? 😁

Doctors vote no to Trump

You’re not lying, (again)just a little are you CNN.

Fake news?

This is the 3rd time I have seen this post. Must be nothing important going on rn

The NEW ENGLAND JOURNAL OF MEDICINE is not a moral reference...

That's good science.

There are 195 countries in the world today. We are all living this Horror Movie...

Is there any logic? You people this was your setup. Aaaaah so you set a trap against Trump right? I think allow me to call fools. What's wrong for him to recover from the fake disease. Fear God don't be scrapers of Chinese and Democrat. Shame on you

wolfblitzer VOTE VoteTrumpOut Trump

realDonaldTrump VP Mike_Pence

It seems there's a link between the NEJM and China. Seriously.

The attack on our president is unbelievable. I love you really should be ashamed of yourself please leave our country for the safety of our citizens

This is just another political ploy to undermine our President. It's a virus people being used to take down this Patriotic President. Biden is a puppet if you love this country and your freedoms stomp down socialism. VOTE TRUMP2020

Trump is not covering up anything! wear a mask but you can't shut down our country he is working hard to get the vaccine Operation Task Force he started working with best doctors around the world to defeat covaid started by chinese communist lab VoteTrump❤️

Doctors are not right about everything

Maybe they did not see the movie about a pandemic starring Dr Gupta

This message was paid for by Crooked.

Good.

We are interested in how the pandemic is being handled, putting our lives and children at risk. We are not interested in court packing at this time. Can you focus on the issues that are putting lives at risk?

You’re just recycling old news! It’s the New England Journal 0f Medicine! They offer nothing substantial yo an conversation!

Holary and obama sold all our uranium to russia s got big money funneled through the clinton foundation spyed on the Trump Campaign made up fake russia collusion covering it up fake news is helping them

Yeah, but he has cool hair.

Awwww and he is begging, really begging for the Nobel Peace Prize. I guess killing 210,000 people to TrumpVirus was not good enough? He is Doctor Death

Euronorth Loser!!

CNN👺Spreads BS Conspiracy about Trump that has NOBODY Fooled !! via YouTube

Trumpbits I completely agree with & thank, New England Journal of Medicine.

The New England Journal of Medicine has been made to look like clowns by the China Virus. Their opinion means nothing now.

Vote TRUMP don’t be fooled

How a out you back thT up. Fake news

A big enough donation will make any organization say whatever you want.

Scientists backing the guy who led the team which ordered too few H1N1 shots too late. Over 60.8 H1N1 cases. If Covid over 2,000,000 dead.

Y'all are desperate

Props. 👏👏👏

How about we vote you out for not reporting what you knew from your correspondence around the world

Yes!! One term was too much!!

Trump may say and think his admin was “perfect” and “fantastic” but that doesn’t mean it’s reality.

VickieRushing1 Wow

SHOCKING! Well maybe not lmao..how hard will you bitchs cry when Trump wins in a landslide ..lmao Trump2020

CNN are a box of lies they should be ashamed

I stand with SCIENCE!

VoteHimOut2020 VoteHimOut2020 VoteHimOut VoteHimOut VoteHimOut

And who is financially backed by liberal Dems?

Democrats are shaking in there boots they know if Trump wins the corrupt go to jail!

Well minus Pennsylvania, New England is sheeplecrat country. The New England Journal is pandering to it's sheeplecrat readers.

lol more fake news

Imagine the nonsense as if England is not among the worse covid country. How about you handle your country properly first

I call BS

CNN Trump started Task Force and he is doing everything humanly possible to stop the virus started by communist labs in china your lucky he did not shut down America unless you have your 401K off shore which will be investigated pray Trump wins!

People need to recognize the significance of what the NEJM editors did-those comments are nearly without precedent and demonstrate the extreme circumstances into which we have been misled.

COVID-19 is not only his failure what about kidnapping the kids the shut down that killed many people because they couldn’t get their medicines and treatments cheating us out of our money lying divided our country killing our environment

Trump is crazy, apart from his personality disorders he is drug affected. He has no right to lead the USA,he’s incompetent and dangerous. He has manipulated the doctors.This is a massive cover up which puts the national security at risk. He is derelict in his duties. Remove Him

JasonMillerinDC

Fake news, you're fired.

Journal of United States College of Veterinary Medicine calls for Trump to be put down.

Trump will do anything and everything to win. Even killing Americans.

levantate_e And do you really believe that the opinion of this collegiate body of medicine has the political or social weight to make such a stupid proposal effective?

Please provide the party affiliation of the editors......any good news organization would have also provided it......but, oh, then again, you are CNN...💩

Donald Trump YOU CLAIM TO BE PRO-LIFE! You elected to take Remdesivir as a treatment for your infection of COVID19 KNOWING that this drug was developed by the use of an ABORTED BABY! Then you allocate MILLIONS of Tax Payers Dollars to continue this Experimental Drug’s development

CNN spreads fear, hate, and lies

Lol

Fact check. In unprecedented move the WHO, a libtard favorite organization, just declared Trump is right all along that lockdowns cannot be the solution. Libtards are always on about listening to experts so there you go

Any truth to this story?

At what point does the President get his phone taken away like the petulant child that he is? StopArmenianTerrorism COVIDIOTS BidenHarris2020 DumpTrump

I sure hope people don’t think is real news.

A liberal paper mad at Trump, who would have ever thought. !!

Well Said

Trump is a pathological liar and TrumpIsNotAmerica. VoteBidenHarris and restore truth to the White House and decency to our nation.

Right, liberal elitist bastion of medicine never condemned Biden/Obama for its failure to stop H1N1 from infecting 60 million Americans in 2010. Covid-19 7+ million infections. What typical liberal hypocrisy.

So what do THEY know about it? Trump's handling of the pandemic has been PERFECT. His goal was re-election & the pandemic started in the Democratic coastal states. What did he do wrong by stalling? The only way you're right is if his goal was to STOP the pandemic. It wasn't.

No, never heard of them. Maybe I spoke to one of their guys in a lift. Overrated hacks.

CNN is dying

Don't waste you time arguing with trump trolls. Mocking is OK though.

So

mingoramirezjr As a medical professional, you would think I would like to be repped by an MD. Too bad my rep michaelcburgess doesn't really care about adult humans or his hippocratic oath. He cares about 1. Ego 2. party over country. , 3 whatever it takes to get re-elected.

WHO “We in the WHO do not advocate lockdowns as the primary means of control of this virus,” David Nabarro, Oct 8, 2020

🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸TRUMP 2020🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

The USA is drowning in right wing authoritarianism.

well ?

Wtf

BurtonBrown this is classic election meddling...this will bite NEJM in the ass. Considering it's reporting this says everything the American people need to know. There's a reason he has 4 (crickets by the MSM) noble peace prize nominations.

TrumpVirusDeathToll215K

🙄

President Trump 4 more years

I'm not sure if this is satire or not. cnn

Voted out - - - or kicked out.

Unprecedented

jordan_levy So the NEJM wants him out? What will the replacements do differently that’s so much better? Actually they’ll just become dictators and demand everyone wear mask. The states have the power to do what is right for their state. Some states have done better than others. Wonder which?

Kharkov, Barabashovo

No one in medicine universally agrees on anything, it’s a stupid liberal physicians magazine

We don't give a shit what the NEJoM has to say. We have enough global evidence that lockdowns are worse than their attempt at the curve. Done and done.

Not just not of office put him in jail no one will miss him

gordy_shanks The Department of Defense defines insurgency as: The organized use of subversion and violence by a group or movement that seeks to overthrow or force a change of a governing authority. Insurgency can also refer to the group itself. Such is Trump/Pence.

💯😱Trump is a dangerous creature on earth👹😈

But most of realDonaldTrump supporters are uneducated red necks and they never read scientific papers ProjectLincoln WhiteHouse SenateGOP GOP

Your death will have zero effect on the election eutger

That will be the best option, to kick out of the office this selfish and incompetent 'joke of a president' realDonaldTrump

Liberal rag..

Trump is killing Americans left and right. He has been a disaster for our country.

What does the NEJM think about our food policies?

We should all follow doctor's advice. Vote him out.

thedavidcrosby His removal can't come fast enough. I get that democracy is messy, but enough! Enough! Every day Trump is in office brings more chaos, thousands of new cases of Covid, more racist hate and violence, hypocrisy and lies, misery and damage to the country and to individual lives.

A$$ CLOWNS

Soon he’ll be in a tiny room with tiny windows and no way to save little fishes.

Can somebody tell, how many people tested positive for the cold and flu this week?

svensundgaard He is MENTAL, period!

I don't know that the New England Journal of Medicine are so wisely and would win the battle against Covid , really ? Journal for President

The same editors who had to retract papers with questionable authenticity that had been published in the journal?

Fuckin’ joke!

The Rockefeller foundation calls for trump to be voted out so communism can be implemented*

Of coarse they!! He is going against the establishment.

With the help of Russia 🧐

The EDITORS... So in other words, never trumpers condem Trump. Shocking

And we care because.....?

No doubt that needs to happen soon!

Newsflash trump 2020

Hey, New England Journal of Medicine, eat 💩💩💩💩

Does this mean Fauci and Birx must Go? Remember they were leading “ Scientists “ everyday on our TV.

LylajoyRose 'Formerly' prestigious.. Until they became political hacks..

lol

Covid is no worse than the flu morons.

The scientists are speaking!

Hahahahahaha

Didn’t Fauci state the President did not distort this virus’s impact? We all should listen to the experts but Doctors who are getting paid by networks are bias mouthpieces and journalists barking their “expert” opinions are despicable.

If you read the article there is a lot to disagree with. They feel letting the states manage the outbreak was the wrong move. Completely disagree.

FAKE NEWS

Yawn. More left wing trash attacks on the President.

CNN, and the new England journal of doctors will love medicare for all. 🥴

They didn't get their second stimulus check either.

Fake story 😅😅😂

TrumpKnew TrumpHasCovid

Trump is the plague!!!! TrumpIsThePlague

They are so lucky this virus came along when it did! Almost like it was ordered or something.

Understand the winner of this election gets to pick what medical profession in scientist get grants from the federal government to deal with covet obviously New England Journal of Medicine has decided to throw their lot in with Biden

Which proves that they're part of MSM and not part of Medicine.

Nobody cares...he’s gonna win in a landslide

Yawn. This is just more noise.

Yassss

So they’re on the same page as CNN?

Thank Y’all for Speaking Up!

Good move

You folks are losing your minds. Literally no one has a handle on this. Democratic-led states have rising cases as do Republican-led. Michigan, with excessive restrictions, is seeing a rise in cases. California has second-highest death toll! Who are we kidding here?

What do they know! ... besides everything.

They are associated with a Chinese Publishing house-duh!

New England who?....

Wow, this buffoon just keeps on winning.

Same logic applies to all enefficient world state leaders who messege up Corona management .. isnt it 🤔

Should a medical journal advise voters of country whom to vote? Is it not interference in Election2020 process? seanhannity TuckerCarlson DineshDSouza IngrahamAngle DonaldJTrumpJr

Can we see the article? On what grounds? Every organization in America has kept their thinking brain on the shelf, and are only filled with anti-Trump venom. Remember people are with Trump- average people, and that is all that matters.

“We don’t have the right leaders for this pandemic” 👏

Admirable.

Thank God some common sense.

VoteHimOut

On that note 📝 WHERE IS BETSY DEVOS? Where is the support for schools? Students ARE getting sick. Yes, VERY SICK and not a peep from this woman.

This is absolutely disgusting from a well respected medical journal to do, they have no right getting involved in politics.

jidealexoni Change the headlines; 'Dems & Dems sympathizers who all also happen to be Doctors expressed their continued hatred for Trump & advised that he be removed from office'

For the first time in the history of the New England Journal of Medicine, they are taking a political stance.

Which proves the point that this entire reaction to the virus has been politically driven, rather then scientifically driven

Hillary won by 15 points.

Karma isn't done with Crooked Donnie.. it wants him around for all that's coming..

Trump doesn't care about anyone but himself. The second he got symptoms he jumped the line on everyone taking a Helicopter Ride to get the best Med's, treatments being tested not available or approved for anyone basically cheating like always, Entitled Donald always gets it all.

People are not watching CNN by the millions. That's news too.

It's called ' crisis management ' whether it is a pandemic or racial injustice, THIS ADMINISTRATION HAS FAILED MISERABLY.

Trump has the Antibodies. Not naturally, but through the medication he has been given. Trump is a walking ‘Test Tube’ at the moment, he is being propped up by a mixture of drugs, steroids, and several other medications that are masking his real position. He will deteriorate soon.

HeathMayo This is the same rag that has been blocking for the horribly flawed ACA since the beginning. One sided puff pieces.

In lieu of this and everything else, why is anyone supporting a single republican in this election? Smarten up Americans, show the world you actually have a democracy.

KATHYLEA17 How unprecedented that this was reported by CNN?

The tea party extremist Republicans was looking for a candidate like Chump and enabling him, comes November we are going to vote all of them out.

Thank goodness a highly respected institution is speaking up responsibly!..

Think: NYT Editorial Board ALWAYS endorses war (Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Yemen, Syria, etc). But, NYT journalists usually against war. NEJM editors politically motivated for lockdowns. SCIENTISTS know masks & lockdowns are bad for a virus w/ 99.5% survival rate for all age 69

What say you, SenJohnBarrasso ?

Awesome!! realDonaldTrump .

How incredibly absurd

I don’t see how you can hate from outside of the club, you can’t even get in.

LOCK HIM NOW! He’s a criminal infecting people. SHAME realDonaldTrump

👏

Not surprised. You reject science and science will reject you.

You can tell Harris lost😂 CNN is trying really hard to cover that fact up...!

Lie Fake news media

You guys say 'Bullshit' on air. Wow! So cutting edge and gritty. VERY edgy!

No one cares what these people think.

Oh. My. God. How will Trump ever recover from this?

That's it, Trump is sunk for sure now

You are kidding , right? The man shut down travel from infected China, he stopped the spread, then allowed the country to be shuttered.. what more could he havoe done;

Not really unprecedented. All the people who work in the medical field varies in political opinion. I see Dr. Fauci and doctors say Trump did the best he could. They are not really 'united' per se and should not be taken to account unless they are directly involved with the Trump

💩 in one hand and wish in the other, see which one fills up first! There is your answer!

Listen to Fauci!

How many times are you gonna treat us and act like it’s news

know from working in healthcare, Doctors & Nurses are pissed that realDonaldTrump Mike_Pence SecAzar CDCDirector have hung them & our patients out to dry & are literally KILLING US with lack of adequate PPE & botching the vaccine response❗️ TrumpCovidSuperSpreader

The new England who? 😄

I really wanna know what could have been done differently from a President

Democrats everywhere are panicking. They know they don’t have a chance against TrumpPence, especially after watching Pence mop the floor w/KamalaHarris tonight in the Debate. Her performance reminded everyone why she failed so miserably in the primaries. Trump2020Landslide

Yes! Leadership from the New England Journal of Medicine. Anyone saying anything differently doesn’t know their arse from their elbow.
