all politicians who try to disseminate information at this time, instead of leaving it to experts, are going to get it wrong, Trump issued some "fake news" it had the ring of truth, but was ill informed and the weak minded followed the news trail and died as a result, this will be no different to many other false news trails like focusing on ventilators when ventilators will be needed by few, or focusing on hand sanitiser when soap and water will do

Are you talking about the hydroxycholroquine?

If the experts didn't specify, why would a politician?

The experts did specify.

I think the experts have said they are looking and testing a number of things for a treatment and vaccine. I see no wholesale selling of any particular treatment on humans have you? A lack of testing though has been on the frontlines of both containment and developing treatments, and it remains the lack of resources and manpower that's the main focus.

Yes as a physician administered cure it may be effective but disinfectant will probably kill it too but not if ingested

I'm not following you on this one. You said, "Trump issued some "fake news" it had the ring of truth, but was ill informed and the weak minded followed the news trail and died as a result." In what way was it "fake news"? Weren't you the one who posted here a couple of weeks ago that scientists in Australia were using hydroxychloroquine as a successful treatment for CV? When Trump mentioned it the use of the drug was already fairly widely known. He was hardly the first person to mention it, so in what way was it "fake news"?

I think the dufus was grossely exaggerating the facts to make it look like he knew what he was talking about. He has a way of spinning things to make himself look better. Like the Australian cure for covid-19, yet have no numbers to go with it.

Yeah. Thank goodness Pelosi, Obama, and HC never did that.

jeeeze one fn moron couple took a dose of fish tank cleaner . This argument is pathetic. If people are going to committ suicide they are going to commit suicide ! Tragic stupidity . Blaming it on Trump is just plain political BS !!!!!!!!

Well, our beloved gov just issued a "shelter in place" order for our county for the next two weeks. We have sort of shot up to 35 cases in just a few days. I guess my wild nighttime parties will just have to wait a couple of weeks.

been living with it for a couple weeks . would've been much worse if I wasn't so "essential " My advice is to find a way to get outside ;soak in the Vitamin D from the sun ; take a walk before the government decided to shut down the recreation spots . Find a way to keep yourself occupied ;hobby ,new learning experience ,take on a delayed project et .

Thanks, Tom. I've got a good bit to do so I think I can stay busy. We'll see at any rate. I stay outside a lot as we live kind of in the country.

There is actually a great reason to wait. No human studies have yet been done. It's all been done in petri dishes.

And once again we agree on something! Don't you think that proves there is hope for America?

Have a great day. Keep safe.

you will all be safe but sick

I intend to be safe but not sick.

I ain't sick nor feel safe, fresh food run this weekend! Somebody get Tom a mask, gloves and hand sanitizer. I'm out and he needs it. Let never forget those indispensables that keep things going as we cringe in the corners. Can't be as easy as they make it look on a daily basis.
