I hope he announces a deal with India where we have millions of doses of the drug that works.
*crosses fingers*
Market would skyrocket tomorrow!
Great news, indeed.

“Oh sure, when moses does it it’s a miracle. When I do it, it’s an “ecological disaster” and a “Non-biblical” event. Those haters.”
“lets be fair to The Moz, the Egyptians probably didn’t use the word “miracle” to describe the plagues”
Let’s not push the panic button over the new respiratory virus. It is already known to be far less lethal than SARS, and may not be any worse than the common flu. In any event, it will be managed just fine in the United States.
Rush is on the bull’s-eye about this.
RATs and their media are trying to make something much bigger out of COVID-19, to attack POTUS (and us) with it.
They’re hoping it will be “Trump’s Katrina.” (Sheesh! These people are sick. BTW, that phrase may have actually come from never-Trumper Hugh Hewitt.)
The NIH guy has said repeatedly that the death rate out of China is vastly overstated, because they are not reporting all the cases—hence, THE DENOMINATOR OF THE FRACTION IS GREATLY UNDERSTATED, making the death ratio appear to be much higher than it is in reality.
FOR EXAMPLE: If instead of 80,000 cases in China there are actually 2.7 million (not a stretch at all!), then the death ratio of Covid-19 would be approximately the same as the common flu in the U.S. today, or about 1 in a 1,000.
I hope so, too.
Whatever the death rate is...
It’s caused china to shut down. Hundreds of millions under quarantine.
Military enforced quarantine of 11M people in Wuhan.
Literally digging up secondary and tertiary roads out.
I can’t remember china doing this for the yearly flu or common cold...
I’ve been secretly hoping that was the whole purpose of the India trip.
We still need to make critical pharma stuff here, but moving it to India while we revamp here would be a win for both nations.

I would prefer to see him incarcerated rather than deported.
Although I live within miles of the (naturally orange, "red" dirt-muddy) Red River in TX, AR & LA, I totally missed those "blood-red" rivers!.
For some reason, they bring to mind the beautiful Animas River in Colorado --that turned yellow after the EPA dumped tons of toxic mine tailings into it:
Back in my consulting days, I had a small, old New England yarn-dyeing company as a client. They were known locally for several "colorful 'oopsies'" like the ones depicted (but, not, always red ones...)
IOW, I see the hand of Man -- not the hand of God -- in those images...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
My guess as to the increased frequency of such images: 'most everyone nowadays has a phone -- and most phones have cameras...

Amen...may no evil plan bear fruit; may it become poison and strike those that would do evil or harm to others
China is using the excuse of the flu to crack down on people and keep protestors home.
And wrecking their economy in the process?
Once those supply chains move, they won’t be moving back anytime soon.
Not saying they aren’t use the disruption to ALSO get rid of politically unpopular people.
They’re welding entire apartment tower doors shut.
Their food production is crawling to a stop too. No way to distribute it.
There’s a video of a farmer releasing thousands of ducks because he has no food to feed them because no deliveries are forthcoming because of the quarantine.
China is in a pickle.
That there Red River out in cotton-growing Central and West Texas runs “Longhorn Red”. UT school colors.
The color was developed to duplicate the iron rich soil of the region.
This time of year, I kinda miss seeing those huge open fields of perfectly straight plow furrows.
I “had” a photo of a classic West Texas dust storm that hit us in Midland. Taken from a weather plane (Piper?) above and in front of the advancing wall of dust. Spectacular “burnt umber” red.
I loved World War Z. Right up my alley too. I loved Outbreak, Contagion., etc. Virus Porn!
I thought it was pretty intuitive how they defeated the “Zekes in World War Z.
The hero injecting himself with a virus to play dead among the dead was a money shot worth the ticket price. Playing dead in the animal kingdom is a very adept strategy. It reminds me of Barry in Dinner for Schmucks when he plays dead so no one will beat him up.
Camouflage is a good strategy every time.
I wonder if lab rats have created a virus that could make one smell like a skunk. That would make for a funny contagion. A bunch of human Pepe Lepews’ nancing around. But alas it would scratch the throats of the elitists on hill Nobs everywhere so that’s out.

She looks skeletal!
Today, Team Trump filed a libel lawsuit against the New York Times over a story falsely reporting as fact a conspiracy with Russia.

MONEY QUOTE!!! Without knowing the number of ALL cases, the death rate remains shrouded in mystery. I have refused to get freaked out about this in any way, shape or form. Trump will be giving an address about this at 6PM Eastern Time.
