Greta Thunberg added to CNN’s expert coronavirus panel
[NYPOST] An upcoming CNN town hall on the coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague)
...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men...
 pandemic will feature 17-year-old Greta "Pippi" Thunberg
...an autistic sixteen year old Swedish expert on climate change...
 alongside a panel of medical experts .

The program, "Coronavirus Facts and Fears," also includes CNN broadcaster Sanjay Gupta, 50, former Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, 71 and former Centers for Disease Control and Prevention director Richard Besser, 60. CNN anchor Anderson Cooper, 52, will host alongside Gupta.

However,
if you can't say something nice about a person some juicy gossip will go well...
 social media watchdogs are foaming at the mouth over the choice to place a teen climate activist on a panel with public health experts.

"What place does Greta Thunberg have in this town hall?" asks Twitter rabble rouser Yashar Ali to his 618,000 followers. His rhetorical question was liked by more than 12,000 since this morning.

Her name is a top trending term on Twitter, with some 30,000 mentions on the platform in just a few hours.

In a follow-up tweet, Ali clarified his rhetorical tweet with an explanation: "I understand that but this is a panel of top health experts and administrators. A climate activist would be better suited on a different panel. She’s not a climate scientist. It’s a matter of placement."
