Hospitals in 2 Texas counties are full
Florida hospitals are filling up

some people go through this like nothing
some people die (estimated appx 2%)
some people survive but get pretty damn sick - and we don't know yet if they fully recover if they get pneumonia
I know an otherwise healthy 35 year old woman who was pretty damn sick for 4 weeks - had oxygen at home. She is back at work now but still not close to 100%.
This is NOT the common cold
This is NOT influenza

Thanks for clarifying. You're the Dr. Fauci of the forum.

I just thought it was odd that he was clearly shaken by the death of Stanley Chera in April & reportedly angry that people who got close to him like the valet & other WH staff were sick, and he completely ignores his son's situation & Guilfoyle's. Or maybe, that's his SOP - if he ignores it, it didn't happen.

Makes one wonder how casual & loose things were in South Dakota last week in fund raisers with K. Guilfoyle. How many photo ops, handshakes, hugs, etc. Bet most in contact with her didn't wear a mask, and why would they with their mindset.

Here's but one article of a politician's wife coming into contact with KG. Great job. She's doing the spreader job for the prez.

I don't think there's any question that there weren't any precautions taken - just like Tulsa that wiped out the advance team. In the short clip I saw, there didn't seem to be anyone at the WH event wearing a mask or social distancing, including military. I guess the paratroopers were safe.

Trump himself is in a bubble w/testing & screening of those in contact w/him (which I thought might include his son), but as for the rest of his inner circle, the RNC, or his re-election committee, they're all replaceable.

The more people tested, the crazier the #s/panic get

A full shutdown enforced by martial law? Is that next? Where would that leave the democracy?
One step away from fascism/totalitarianism, that’s where

It’s time America pulled up its bootstraps, sneered at this thing & said, “We’re going to reopen - we realize people can’t be 6 feet apart All of the time, that was unrealistic & a bad idea, so since social distancing hasn’t worked we’re going to reopen - people can continue to wear mask/sanitize hands/maintain safe social distance.....” etc

The annual 4th of July village parade this past Saturday succumbed to it, the running of the bulls in Spain has also - this is not the American way, just accepting that CV= a butt kicking & best to close up shop, run & hide - It Hasn’t Worked

if reopening means millions of Americans dead in the next few years b/c they to the beach/out to eat or a concert/ballgame, so be it - martial law would have no effect at all on that

Agreed and wouldn't it be something if the people who tested positive in the WH, never showed symptoms?

A strain of the bubonic plague, which killed some 50M Europeans back in the day, has been diagnosed in China - read that this morning online

OMG, look at that!...China at the core, again.

what about that new swine flu bug rearing it's head over there?

My bad - the bubonic plague case was uncovered in Inner Mongolia, then reported by Chinese officials - just clarifying

Inner Mongolia is part of China. Not sure why this made the news here. The US typically has up to a couple dozen cases a year ourselves. Maybe because Fox News wants people to fear China some more?
