I’m sure Herman Cain got the best care possible also and it didn’t help him squat.
As far as Biden goes, yes he should be tested frequently (if he’s not already) but my understanding of COVID is that your risk of infection is related to the viral load you are exposed to. Biden sharing a stage with Trump for two hours from fifteen feet away is likely much less exposure than Trump surrounding himself with family and staff, and nobody wearing masks.
True, but people of color seem to have worse outcomes. From what I hear anyway.
I will be following where the spread goes from here…
Saw Pence is negative at this point in time. Remember though it can take seven plus days to turn positive.
Someone let me know when The Lincoln Project gets all over this. My advice is to not go comedy on this. At least not on the first one.
Holy cow, folks - read the article. If true (well, failing CNN, y’ know) I would expect Bornstein to get a rocket from NY authorities, at a minimum.
Dan
It’s going to be an interesting one - there’s a lot of very low-hanging fruit here and I’ve already seen several clip compilations of Trump making fun of masks and the people who wear them followed by news reports of him being infected.
Since the Lincoln Project often speaks to him directly, my prediction is that they get someone super manly to tell him that he’s weak for being infected and weak for not taking precautions in the first place.
Literally nothing about this post makes a lick of sense.
So Pence potentially exposed Monday. Should be quarantined for two weeks. Tested five days out is usually positive by then but only usually.
Barrett exposed?? Should also be quarantined two weeks.
Does she appear before the Senate virtually?
These are strange times.
Bornstein is the NY doc who said Trump is in great shape. But the post still makes no sense
And later admitted that Trump dictated the letter.
That crazy DeAnna Lorraine person has suggested that the democrats put the virus on Trumps mic at the debate.
“Appear”? I’m sure Moscow Mitch would love to interview her personally but I’m afraid they’ll have to take a vote without that. Due to COVID you know.
Sadly, alot of people would believe this.
Maybe he dictated that post too.
Sure. As long as you’re the president of the United States who gets tested at least once per day, so the infection can be caught within hours, and you get the medical care that the president of the United States gets, you have a good chance of surviving. Not sure this would be a slam dunk take home message.
My conspiracy theory leans more toward looking for a way to drop out of the race so that it can never be said that he lost.
I don’t believe anything that comes out of Trump’s Whopper hole (either of them) unless and until there’s sufficient independent corroborating evidence. Not there yet. For the time being this “news” is filed next to Schrodinger’s Cat.
I could well see it as something he threw out there to watch everyone run after, leaving behind the whole Proud Boy debate debacle. Then he makes an amazing recovery. “The White House doctors. Spectacular, they really took good care of Your President. A few sniffles, that’s all it was. Some people get hit hard. I just got a few sniffles.”
Alternatively, if the Cat dies, fingers crossed for Biden. (I’m waiting for the QAnon conspiracy saying Biden is really sick and/or dead, and has been replaced by a Bolshevik child molester cannibal.)
I would assume he tested positive several times before they went public with it.
The New York Times is reporting he is showing coldlike symptoms and was lethargic at a fundraiser.
President Trump is showing symptoms of the novel coronavirus, but mild ones, according to two people familiar with his condition.
The president has had what one person described as coldlike symptoms. At a fund-raiser he attended at his golf club at Bedminster, N.J., on Thursday, where one attendee said the president came in contact with about 100 people, he seemed lethargic.
Boris Johnson got it, and he is still messing up on COVID. Fortunately, he didn’t mess up as badly as Trump beforehand.
