There is only on factory that makes those masks.
And the line inspector there has Corona!

We have a vaccine for influenza.

We do not have one for COVID-19

Who said it.

“When you have 15 people, and within a couple of days is going down to close to zero, that a pretty good job”

—-Donald Trump, 45th president of the United States

Yeah it’s not his fault about 2 citizens dying, but he does get the fault for spreading misinformation.

Well, let me post a comparison photo and you guys let me know which you think is least likely to result in containment.

I dunno about you, but personally, I found this juxtaposition of photos of the handling of infected patients rather *disturbing*. (note the different masks in the 2nd photo, looks like they "grabbed" whatever was closest at hand).


China medical team dealing with coronavirus patient vs medical team in U.S. evacuating nursing home patients with coronavirus positives.

(and I'm not interested in any political statements.....this is about disease prevention protocols.....)

You are aware, of course, that if any President actually declares a public health emergency, Uncle Sam is on the hook for out-of-pocket medical costs via the National Disaster Medical System?

If not maybe you can look that up. I know people don't like to read actual laws and regulations, (because it's easier to copy and paste memes and stuff off social media)......... but sometimes it pays to do so. If any of you are First Reponders then you already know these regs. How this would apply to a nationwide disease outbreak I do not know as that has not happened yet. This would be an HHS discretion.....Maybe Obama didn't want to open a pandora's box that would lead to medicare for all?

Looking at that photo of that Chinese medical team, one would think that was taken right after the Chernobyl disaster.

I mean, seriously folks...WHAT....THE....****????

The VAST MAJORITY of non-elderly, non-immunocompromised folks will get nothing but BAD COLD or Flu symptoms from this COVID-19.

Why are we treating this thing like EBOLA?

What am I missing? I've heard countless doctors and esteemed scientists say exactly what I just typed above. The reason why cases are showing up now in Washington is that this thing has been around a LOT LONGER than people thought. And the vast majority of those who had it (and got over it) didn't know they had anything more than a BAD COLD or Flu. And we'll NEVER KNOW ABOUT THEM because they recovered at home, thinking they had a cold or flu, and they will never be tested.

For ****'S SAKE!?!?!?!?

Dr. Siegel on FOX said that it may well turn out so many have already had it and never knew that the fatality rate may be much lower than we think.
