Sorry if this has been posted, but I found this to be a bit sobering.

Those are the facts, and there isn't a lot that can be done about it.
Oh, you can't tell him because the virus killed him.

Re: Covfefe-19: Do What Now?
Anyone heard whether there's any way to tell if someone has had covid-19 but recovered? Googling "covid-19 testing" gives 10,000 links (most not to Kushner, I hope) about whether to get tested when you ARE sick, but I couldn't sift through and find anything related to post-illness testing. I haven't heard whether it leaves antibodies or other markers behind after the infection dies out. *IF* it turns out that we can only get covid-19 once, then I think it would be a really useful test in the coming months - "Welp, I've had it, so no need for social distancing now." We'll all be carrying around antibody certificates as our safe passage papers....If you don't change the world today, how can it be any better tomorrow?

Originally posted by ticapnews View PostI dont have a link but I have read mixed results. Reportedly people in China had the disease in January, got better and went back to work and now have it again. No idea how accurate that report is, or if they were misdiagnosed in January.Russell Jaslow

Re: Covfefe-19: Do What Now?
As long as Trump refers to COVID-19 as "the Chinese virus", I will be calling him "the Russian president"."I went over the facts in my head, and admired how much uglier the situation had just become. Over the years I've learned that ignorance is more than just bliss. It's freaking orgasmic ecstasy".- Harry Dresden, Blood Rites

A coronavirus cautionary tale from Italy: Don’t do what we did
Many of us were too selfish to follow suggestions to change our behavior. Now we’re in lockdown and people are needlessly dying.

Re: Covfefe-19: Do What Now?
Someone said that the U.S. took too long to close it's borders. I said Italy did quickly close them to Asia, and it didn't matter; it still spread. In fact, your response is exactly why it didn't matter.
I never claimed Italy did things right. I'm saying (by following all the responses and not cherry picking one), just doing one thing correctly (closing your borders) doesn't help if you don't do everything correctly (limit physical interaction).Russell Jaslow

Re: Covfefe-19: Do What Now?
This is a joke
A transcript of the president's comments right now is going to read like a drug-fueled, stream-of-consciousness novel from a third-tier Beat Poet.
