I am going to disagree with most here on this.

I think World Leaders and politicians absolutely need to be tested..as do those around Trump.

As for Hollywood??? Forget it

Congress is the one that writes the laws and is going to authorize spending to deal with this crisis.. We dont want them on ventilators. They are an important part of our government..even though I would like a lot of them to lose in the next election

Yes it’s a snide remark, but explain to me why the spread in DC is through the corridors of Congress.

He wasn’t voting when he was symptomatic this week? All of the Senate needs to go in quarantine.

Testing doesn’t prevent contracting the disease, and it does nothing to deal with the symptoms.

“Extensive travel” but no known contact with an infect person. Okay. What about his contact with previously uninfected persons?

At any rate, if these people are so all fired important, and we can;t risk them being infected, then THEY need to be put into a bubble. No travel for THEM. Bring them their food, drinks and other needs.

Good point. Adds new meaning to “Lock them up!”

Because this is one of the most protected classes of people in the nation.

If they can get it you can more easily get it.

Get it?

So he had no symptoms but he gets a test...

sounds like Rand sure thought it was an emergency when it

came to his own health.

Normal people have to jump through hoops to get tested, and wonder if they will die before they get their test results.

Compared to South Korea, we have handled testing poorly

Iwonder if Dr. Paul prescribed for himself Hydroxycholoquine and Azithoroycin as a precaution?
*****************************************
As a prophylactic, probably not. But now that he has tested positive he likely has even though he is asymptomatIc. I’m sure he reads the literature and is not stupid.

Sorry, I thought you were serious.

I’m not going to waste my time on the spreading of the virus in DC.

“I am going to disagree with most here on this...I think World Leaders and politicians absolutely need to be tested..as do those around Trump.”

I’m on board. We go through a lot of effort to select people who represent us and then put them in jobs that put them at much higher risk than ourselves (ask any conservative about the death threats they get, not to mention softball shootings and trains being sabotaged). They deserve higher-level protection than others, and at government expense.

porkulus?

So we can spend Trillions in Afghanistan and Iraq, but not to help the American people through a pandemic?

Seriously, WTF is wrong with you?
