I dont think it has been confirmed that he is on a ventilator but seeing experts saying they think it is coming.

Nigel Farage said Bojo is very very unwell

This bit about sending over two companies to the UK is odd. I think UK has been using Trumps drug.

Bojo must be in really really bad shape that they dont know how to deal with.

99% of the folks who get covid 19 make a complete recovery similar to the seasonal flu but

I believe it is closer to 98%. While that doesn’t sound like much of a difference, it means the CFR is around 2% however, the New England Journal of Medicine found that the overall death rate was slightly lower, around 1.4% and it could be less if one factors in very mild and asymptomatic cases but without widespread testing, it is unknown figure.

The death rate from seasonal flu is typically around 0.1% in the U.S.

The flu has an R0 value of about 1.3

The R0 value for COVID-19 is between 2 and 3

But perhaps more importantly:

The hospitalization rate for flu is 1.4% vs 4.6% for COVID-19

Every one of the Gallo kids were forced to work.

Bob (I think Matt’s dad) had to prune for an entire winter to buy his first used pickup. It had to be HIS money. Not dads.

We're talking about people's lives

Balance of Terror (1:14)? I think McCoy said something similar - well, he got the point across.

Found it!

I'm nothing but a poser! ;)

I wonder what effect a microwave oven might have on masks and/ or virus.

And it is very nice to finally see someone that gets it, after being here on this thread for just one day - you are very rare.

Every day we get one of impimp’s disciples in here, and that’s why I went after you so fast yesterday.

I was wrong. Thank you.

And, I am going to call out nonsensical trolls.

I guess we missed the memo that designated you as the FR PC Captain.

Buzz off.

I was wondering if POTUS has tried to help out, with his friend, Boris.

Make of that what you will. I smell *CDC* or something close.

It takes a real lowlife to go against everything that's good and righteous for a few pieces of silver. Where do TPTB continually find such scum? Do they recruit druggies desperate for their next fix?! It has to be one of the most miserable ways to earn money imaginable.

Hard to determine what The Lord has in mind.

His will, will be done. And if we don't stop murdering His own, we're going regret we were born, ourselves.

It’s possible that the first line of defense failed, HCQ/Zpack or it wasn’t given early enough, or not given at all.

I think they might rush him some Remdesivir from the US, and/or maybe Tocilizumab? They have proven to be effective in some dire cases.
