GRASSLEY RETURNS: 87-Year-Old Senator Returns to DC After Testing Positive for CoVID, Says ‘No Symptoms’

Senator Chuck Grassley returned to the Capitol Monday after testing positive for CoVID-19 just weeks ago; telling reporters he experienced “no symptoms” during his time in self-quarantine.

“Grassley originally tested positive on Nov. 17 and had been working from home since then. In a statement released Monday, Grassley said he will continue to wear his mask and practice social distancing. Grassley also said he did not experience any symptoms...”

“That means we all have to do our part to help protect our friends, family and fellow Americans. I will continue to wear a mask and practice social distancing,” Grassley continued.

I’m glad he’s ok, but with all respect to Grassley’s career, he is in no way the proper choice to be taking back over the Judiciary Committee Chairmanship this year, as Republicans are planning. This is a pathetic plan with all the high level crime going on in the country right now. Hannity’s site leading the cheering here is even worse. Time for new blood, both in Congress and on TV.

Agree. He needs to retire and let someone younger take over.

A solitary Golf Clap was heard in response to his recovery.

My sister had it. 85 and in a nursing home. No symptoms at all.

I dont know how many passed away from it in that home. That place is as secretive as whats going on with this election debacle.

How is she able to be 3 doing okay? Did she have symptoms - if so did she have the treatments?

I wonder how many people who test positive for coronavirus but have no symptoms actually had a false positive?

Ignore the number three in my first sentence - I accidentally touched it.

The test is positive 50% of the time. A real crap shoot. Totally useless at 40 times amplification, the manufacturer says it should not be used over 25 times amplification or the results are unreliable.

How many tests did he take?

A single positive test may not mean much, especially if symptom free at a significant age.

It could be that the entire COVID scare is a false positive, inspired and fomented by China CCP propaganda.

China’s Global Lockdown Propaganda Campaign: Inside the CCP’s use of social media bots and other disinformation tactics to promote its own response to the coronavirus pandemic and attack its critics

I absolutely conclude that this is correct, even if there is a virus which affects people to different degrees. Just like the flu or a cold.

Gee, maybe his test was a false positive.

Elon Musk got tested four time in one day. Two came back positive and two came back negative. Not exactly a sterling batting average.

I guess she’s a tough old lady! She was feeling ill, so they tested her and she was positive. I believe she’s having a little bit of trouble breathing, but that’s it. No ICU, no oxygen, just keeping a close watch on her.
