Did you get tested? 55% are asymptomatic. Don’t want to be a spreader.

(Good Luck or Congrats, which ever is in order.)

“Rush just called Trump incompetent.....:(”

It's been clear for at least a week now that many flubros will not be supporting Trump. They have gone from calling this a conspiracy against him to him being a part of of it, or just incompetent.

Newest argument is you can't talk about how many would have died without public health measures. How many will be saved is not relevant to their argument.

Notice the 3M label intentionally shown on his bubble suit.

We need to bring all our manufacturing back home where it belongs. Paying 3 cents more for an American made face mask is nothing.

Take a day off from the never ending CV reports. Do something (at home) you enjoy doing. Getting outside in the sunshine eases the mind and boosts much needed Vit D. Skype the grandkids.

I want a snitch line for the tourists. Just had a boatload of young guys go past with their music rattling the windows. And here goes another boatload of tourists. It’s Thursday so welcome to Easter Spread the Virus Weekend.

The only thing Trump has done involves production of essentials, shut down international travel and threaten to cordon sanitaire NYC metro.

Massachusetts sewage suggests more than 100K coronavirus cases in state: MIT lab

Just one section of Massachusetts could have more than 100,000 coronavirus cases — many times more than the entire state has identified at this point, according to an MIT-associated study of local sewage.

Biobot Analytics, which is a lab associated with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, published research this week that an analysis of sewage from a treatment facility in “a large metropolitan area in the state of Massachusetts” suggested that many more people potentially have the highly contagious disease than tests have confirmed.

“On March 25, the area represented by the sample had approximately 446 confirmed cases of Covid-19,” Biobot researchers wrote Wednesday in a post about their research. “Based on our sewage analysis, we estimate that up to 115,000 people are infected and shedding the SARS-CoV-2 virus.”

What is Rush saying or not saying? I wish Tucker had a radio show or a podcast right now.

PM out of intensive care but remains in hospital

Prime Minister Boris Johnson has been moved out of intensive care but remains in hospital, Downing Street has said.

Mr Johnson has been receiving treatment for coronavirus at St Thomas’ Hospital in London since Sunday.

No 10 said he “has been moved this evening from intensive care back to the ward, where he will receive close monitoring during the early phase of his recovery”.

A spokesman added: “He is in extremely good spirits.”

...will no longer be relevant or impactful.

Truthful words.

Super.

Would have been a great loss to lose Boris.

Plus, isn’t he due to be a daddy soon?

Judging from my conversations with several of them here, and based upon my uneducated opinion, they’ve lost their minds. They are not sane.

Some of them seem so intent on directing their misplaced rage at people like me, they seem to have become my enemy, literally dangerous. That really boggles my mind, because I have not and am not doing anything to them. Just sitting in my house trying not to catch my death.

Based upon conversations with one of my friends here in Florida, Limbaugh is influencing him heavily along with his own normalcy bias.

He called me last night to tell me that within the next two weeks we’re going to buy me a set of golf clubs and go golfing... he is so cut off from socialization, I think he’s going mad. I don’t even golf. Couldn’t be less interested if I tried.

I’m not a fan of Rush right now, but I’m also cutting him a break because he is dealing with advanced lung cancer. From his perspective he probably doesn’t see the big deal about the Wuhan virus given what he is dealing with.

The best way I can describe Rush’s show now is Flubro Radio.
