According to Rand Paul's Facebook page he has tested positive for covid 19.
Test his neighbor!
S*** is crazy. It’s gonna be a bumpy ride.
Close DeeCee now and forever.
With Rand’s F’d up lungs, thanks to his neighbor, it might actually be a serious problem.
Prayers for Sen. Paul and his family!
If he dies, his neighbor should be charged with manslaughter.
Another elitist traveling around thinking he is exempt.
I assume he’ll get the best treatment available but if he succumbs, they better arrest that guy for murder. I believe when he broke Paul’s ribs, his lungs were damaged as well.
Why would you say that?
What are the odds of that.
Prayers up for Senator Paul,the smartest person (by far) in Congress; we can’t afford to lose this man ... Rand Paul would actually make a great President ...
Probably got it from his brother Ru.
Never saw Rand that way at all.
He has some crazy ideas but a lot of good ones too and come down on our side a lot.
I get NO vibe from him as thinking he is elitist.
And his job involves travelling around.
If he shirked his duties you’d be hitting him for that.
That post isn’t like you. Maybe just a bad day :)
My best friend is a battalion chief on the fire department that I was a member of for 25 years. He said that their call volume is way up because of young people who have no symptoms calling 911 because they think that they have been exposed.
Rand Paul is only 57, he has no health issues that cause him to be at great risk from this virus. Getting clobbered by your neighbor does not put him at risk. If he wasn’t a senator, around here they wouldn’t even give him a test. They would tell him to self isolate if he thought he might have been exposed.
“Even though it’s tragic and 30,000 people die every year from the flu, we don’t get hysterical over it and maybe we shouldn’t here,” Paul said. “I’m not trying to lessen it, I mean it still could be a big problem in our country, but I think we ought to be reasonable and rational about it.”
So it seems the ruling class has access to tests that people who are showing actual symptoms still can't readily get.
How the heck did he get it? He has had no known contact with an infected person
Praying for Rand but I do find it interesting that a politician can get a test that fast with no known contact to an infected person but the average American exhibiting symptoms cannot.
That’s not a slight on Rand. Just on our system in general. This is wrong, regardless of party.
Praying for Rand’s health and speedy recovery.
