It’s presumed because the CDC hasn’t done their own test yet. Oregon tested the patient with its test and it was positive. They explained the reason for using “presumed” at press conference.

I watched the presser. What a CIRCUS. We are doomed. Could every stereotype be represented????

I know...their contact testing doesn't include grocery stores, etc. etc. So they could go into a store hacking up a storm and they don't care. Hack on the self check, next person touches it, touches there face or rubs their eyes and boom.

The media will announce EVERY new case until panic reaches a fever pitch.

Eventually people will die in our country. It happened during the H1N1 pandemic and the pandemics of 68, 57 and 18. That’s what happens during pandemics. When the happens the panic will be on the scale of a nuclear attack. We can thank social media and the non stop doom barrage from the MSM. Not one story from the useless media about Remdesivir in stage 3 trials and probably and effective treatment. I detest our media with every fiber of my being

President Trump was very authentic in his news conference we he said we had to all work together to fight this virus - not a time for partisan politics. The RATs are gonna ‘die on that hill’ if they keep politicizing it.

Why? Why the fostering panic? Since 2000 you haven’t created an about page. Why?

The Asian Flu PANDEMIC began in China killed 1.1 million world wide and according to the site I'm now reading, killed 116,000 in the USA. Another site claimed it killed 70,000 Americans, so I don't know what the correct figure is.

What I DO know, is that nobody panicked, here, about it, there were NO vaccines against it, nor meds to treat it back then, lots of people got it, here, who had absolutely NO contact with anyone from China/had been to China, and I don't remember the president making any speeches about it on T.V., nor the media blaming Ike for it.

The CDC test is apparently non-discrimitory...

No, you wouldn’t do that to your own economy to try to get rid of a president of another country. It would be unlikely to work and you would have wrecked your own economy for nothing. That would be totally insane.

Which democrat candidate would you rather have in office during a pandemic?

**The person believed to be infected lives in Washington County and is an employee at Forest Hills Elementary School in Lake Oswego, according to Oregon Health Authority.**

Think of all the children who were exposed to this virus!
