I’m an avid MSNBC fan & Dr. Bhadelia is a ray of sunshine. Also, her calmness makes one feel so confident in what we’re going through. My thanks to MSNBC and Dr. Bhadelia.
The above comments that reference Ted Cruz is an example of the politicalization of a disease. I grew up during the polio generation and it was never a political issue. The Flu vaccine is not accepted by all, but it’s not political. I admire Dr. Bhadelia and Dr, Fauci as well as the scientists that have collaborated on the development of the covid vaccine.
Dr Bhadalia’s comments are excellent. I stop doing any things and watch her speak, AH.MD
So proud to know that she is so competent and brilliant at what she does.
Dr Bhadelia’s snide comments directed at Ted Cruz at the prompting of MSNBC’s Brian Williams are not clinically or socially defensible. Bossing patients around without backing up the abuse of knowledge and education has been a legacy of medicine in the US, but around the world and all through time. Credentials are not unique to bureaucrats in academia, who have now finally earned the disdain of the majority of the public.
It was high time, it is a shame that it took a public health incident to unleash the antiseptic of sunlight on institutional corruption and obsequious conformity.
Agree fully. This global SCAM – A false Pandemic, that the entire American medical establishment had bought into – for fear of losing their tenure is very REAL.
Be very careful about who & what – you are not allowed to question…That’s the start of this Preplanned CRIMINAL NONSENSE of Covid 19.
Hats off to the many doctors in USA and globally, who have chosen to come out, speak out & criticize the global criminal FRAUD. of Covid19.
Its unfortunate how many educated professional Indians in Healthcare, Reduction, Medicine, Administration, etc have become the unquestioning slaves to Big Pharma, FDA, CDC, NIH NIEDL & complicit in the criminal fraud…by these globalists. We refuse To Expose these US & global crooks charlatans, by speaking out!
Dr. Bhadelia is a brilliant and calming voice in the explanation of the COVID 19 crisis gripping the US.
Her background and experience make her uniquely qualified to explain the medical and social aspects of this pandemic. As a public health official, her voice is most welcome.
Your candid and precise analysis of the ‘corona world’ beginning with the article in Atlantic is full of insight gathered from your worldwide living and penetrating observation. It offers a unique cultural perspective! We are thankful to you for the same and are proud of you as Americans of Indian origin.
I being of your father’s generation can feel your family’s awareness of their treasure. Keep it up !!
Greetings Dr. Bhadelia your on-point leadership stating don’t anticipate a SILVER BULLET solution to covid19!!
Recently, I gained a tremendous menu of facts reading Gina Kolata: Great Influenza Pandemic of 1918. Your comments today on MSNBC are entirely refreshing to the heart. There is joyful leadership from those remarks. Wishing you continued achievement advising of communities..love and respect your humanity.
Dr Bhadelia is a physician of whom America can be proud. Her appearances on TV but mostly her clinical and philanthropic work as a physician are a bright beacon for all Americans.
Her comments on MSNBC are so appreciated and refreshing. I hope she will be a part of the President-elects’ COVID Leadership Council as I know she will always convey to us the truth and the science to back it up. Thanks so much for your thoughtful perspective.
Thank you for work!
I watch MSNBC and Dr Bhadelia’s medical knowledge has gotten my attention. Also, her calmness which is an exceptional trait in my opinion. Her braveness in working with Ebola patients puts her in a special category. She is one to watch!
I believe we are extremely fortunate to have Nahid Bhadelia, MD as a contributor and educator on MSNBC. She understands her role in telling the story of COVID-19 and its effects on society. She is an asset to this country.
Thanks for all you do!!! I listen very intently to you!!! You are always so professional yet warm and personable!
Thanks and stay healthy.
Sincere thanks for your insightful and dedicated service. The work you do is vital to our species existence. Listening to your message is chilling and mind-bending. However, you deliver that package of dynamite with grace, empathy and clarity.
