Not gonna lie, I need a dog to watch that.
I watched the whole video. Absolutely everyone needs to watch this. Thanks for sharing OP.
I always hate it when my pimp holds my head under water.
I am going to stay away from that ****in bridge.
These types of explanations should be on every news network.
He says it will peak in mid-May, and we'll be lucky to be under 100k new cases per day before slowly declining.
One of the YouTube comments mentioned another drug being tested - Leronlimab, which is intended to mitigate the cytokine storm. Very small emergency study, but it showed some positive results with patients being removed from ICU and extubated.

I'm not judging you if you have a pimp, but if you do you've really screwed up your life. Awaiting mad libs everywhere for their response.
Well, might as well off myself now before the world collapses or I suffocate slowly from this.
Damn. It's good to be informed but that was a little over the top. "How are you going to pay for your mom's funeral when you're unemployed?"

Also, we will be burying our families in July.
I love his expertise and I'll take a ton from it, but I guess I'm skeptical of the sheer number of cases projected by some. I think the social distancing and canceled events will dramatically lower the number of cases.

Yeah I think it's in our nature to be skeptical because we can't really wrap our minds around it -- but it's at least good to keep it in mind.
You may be underestimating how many people are ignoring social distancing and doing what they want.
Up to 17% on a vent?!? Jesus.
Watched this all the way though with my kids at first. Had to explain why the doctor talked about how "this ****er" spreads.
Worth it.
Worth it.

You live on the moron side of town.
Article on local news showing crowded walking trails in Dallas County in spite of having the largest numbers of cases in Texas.
Stay home people. Don't have parties. Don't have play dates.

Bariatric surgeon giving an over the top scare tactic rendition of worse case scenario of lung injury. Why? Unprofessional and unnecessary IMO.
Opportunity to get more "world famous" and sell more of his 13 books. Some Doctors go through all that education to help people. Some do it to feed their ego.Marcus Aurelius said:

To an extent sure, but the longer this thing goes on, the more and more doctors who are not necessarily infectious disease experts will begin to study it and disease spread.
For instance, I could take a chemical engineer and have them focus entirely on mechanical engineering for a year and be confident they would have a pretty good handle on mechanical engineering after a year. Ultimately, so long as you can understand the technical aspects of the field and the terminology, then if you dedicate a lot of time to study it then you could become very well versed in the subject.
I agree with you at the moment, but doctors are like engineers in this regard. Most of them are smart enough to understand other fields very well given a period of time of dedicated and intense study. They won't be experts since that takes decades of experience but they will be able to traverse the subject matter very well.
Pimp bit is super cringe-y.

Tend to agree. Seems to want attention.

How long do you want to ignore this user?
AG
Thank you to all doctors putting their lives and families at risk to save our family members. God bless you.
To answer his question about burials...big counties routinely handle indigents.
Of course things may get out of hand but I'm still hoping warm weather will slow it.
I also hope that people take warnings like this seriously...prefer a line of patients going to the hospitals, not a huge massive mob all at once .

Bits and pieces of the video are informative but a number of questions:
1. Why should we take for word a weight loss surgeon's view on a deadly respiratory illness?
2. I did a little digging and this guy has a very mixed track record from patient reviews.
3. Way too many unprofessional comments by a doctor. The pimp piece. The piece about unemployment. An F bomb here and there.
4. Vuong seems to LIVE for sensationalism. Check out his Facebook page. He's an opportunist before a doctor.
Again, not saying he does not make some valid points, but I would take about 80% of this with a grain of salt.

Thanks doc. I'm going to go back to not taking this thing seriously.
Ya and even scientists that are considered experts in their field are right until new evidence emerges. Best to stay in your lane. It's simply ego when someone wants to give an opinion or prediction outside of their domain of knowledge. Would you take the former mechanical engineer that studied for a year or just simply seek out a chemical engineer that has decades of experience? This guy's opinion is useless with the exception of dinner talk compared to the numerous experts in the field.Nuclear Scramjet said:Marcus Aurelius said:

He went to A&M so he can't be questioned. Typical.
