    Trump campaign, RNC shifts to virtual events amid coronavirus pandemic

    excerpt:

    "Amid the growing pandemic, the president made major changes to his travel schedule. He canceled plan tip out west including a fundraiser in Colorado with Sen. Corey Gardner.

    Trump also postponed a recently announced "Catholics for Trump" kick off event he was set to attend next week in Milwaukee.

    However, the president said on Thursday his next campaign rally in Tampa, Florida on March 29th may still be held, but added "we’ll probably not do it.""

    Iranian deputy health minister, diagnosed with coronavirus, goes into quarantine as locals accuse Tehran of cover-up

    excerpt:

    "Iran's Deputy Health Minister Iraj Harirchi looked visibly feverish as he spoke on state television Monday, downplaying the spread of the new coronavirus in Iran. Without a face mask on, wiping sweat off his forehead and speaking to local press, he coughed into a tissue several times. One day later, he tested positive for the coronavirus."

    Trump officials who knew better were either booted or quit in frustration. Trump is still clinging to his loyalists like Pence with no healthcare experience to play the role of President and press secretary and to try to handle a heath problem.



    Trump officials did sound the coronavirus alarm. They just don’t work there anymore.
    The dire message coming from former administration officials often stood in contrast to the upbeat narrative emanating from the White House.

    Trump officials did sound the coronavirus alarm. They just don’t work there anymore.

    excerpt:

    "The ominous message coming from former administration officials often stood in contrast to the upbeat White House narrative. As people like Bossert and Gottlieb pushed for the administration and public to recognize the virus’s disruptive potential, those immediately around the president publicly echoed Trump’s refrain that everything would soon return to normal. The disconnect is perhaps an example of the evolution of Trump’s administration — dissenting voices have fallen away in favor of those more willing to toe the Trump line."

    No, silly. To know how many "cases" there are, so we can determine the death rate.

    When Trump first made his pronouncement, it sounded like he did. Initially, he seemed to be in denial. It appears that Hannity and Limbaugh still are.
    If Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh think coronavirus is a ‘hoax,’ how many millions of their listeners do too?

    You don't need the number of US cases to work that out, roughly anyway

    Hmmmm, or you just initially swallowed what the Washington Post told you without thinking, and you have to save face now

    Point is, we don't know how many actual cases there are, because we (unlike South Korea) are way behind in our testing capabilities. You gorillas seem so dense at times.

    It's not the point, I told you it wasn't going to spread in the US as it did with China. And that is the case.

    Simple

    The Trump administration doesn't have any difficulty in turning over documents about Biden.



    Sen. Murphy asks inspectors general to look into cooperation with GOP probe into Bidens
    The Connecticut Democrat cites a "double standard" in the refusal by four agencies to cooperate with Democratic-led congressional investigations.

    Sen. Murphy asks inspectors general to look into cooperation with GOP probe into Bidens

    excerpt:

    "The State Department has turned over about 2,800 documents to Republicans in their investigation of the Bidens and is expected to hand over more. The National Archives said it would turn over 10,000 documents to Republican investigators, and the Treasury Department has provided Republicans on relevant committees with rarely released financial documents pertaining to Hunter Biden's work with Burisma."

    The public is still waiting for Trump's big, beautiful, inexpensive healthcare for all.

    USA 1832 cases, 41 deaths, 8 weeks since your first case


    At a 3% mortality rate that would mean 1366 cases

    At a 6% mortality rate that would mean 683 cases

    You don't need to know the actual number of cases to do a rough estimate

    Unless you want to pretend there are no more than 41 test kits in the US when you don't even know what a test kit actually is

    Let me guess, we are going to go until November pretending there aren't enough test kits so we can pretend Orange man bad, even though yes, of course the US health system is going to handle it better than the rest of the world

    Pathetic

    Well, you might have got Medicare for all if everyone had backed Bernie

    What's Joe's idea? Obamacare 2.0 where everyone self employed has their premiums skyrocket?

    Yes, in our country the county coroner files the official cause of death with the court.

    Dawg, a director of NIH told Congress two days ago that we were failing in testing. How much more from the horses mouth can you get?

    'It is a failing. Let's admit it,' Fauci says of coronavirus testing capacity

    OMG, can you all get it through your thick skulls

    You only need the number of deaths to approximate the number of cases.

    With the fatalities, you don't even need the test kits for that, a CRT of the lungs will do it

    Way, way,way less cases and deaths than China over the same time period. USA handling it very well, yes, in 3 months, Orange man will get the credit


    There is a global shortage of the reactants for the test kits. Which by the way are just a bunch of plastic vials with reactants and chemical extractors
