CNN anchor Don Lemon had a "total meltdown" according to critics on Wednesday night after a guest on his show told him that President Trump's coronavirus address from the Oval Office was "fine."
Lemon, who has repeatedly insisted that he is 'not a partisan,' had on former 2016 presidential candidate-turned-CNN contributor John Kasich to discuss the latest developments in the Trump administration's handling of the coronavirus outbreak. The anchor accused Trump of "misrepresenting" the travel ban that was set on Europe after the White House offered clarification on what was affected.
"Look, I watched the address tonight and I thought it was fine. He did fine," Kasich said. "I'm glad he did the address tonight and I think that was important."

I have to admit I’m shocked:
The only argument I would expect between Lemon and Kasich is which one of them hates Trump more.
Don Don the Lemon hack, the other side is where fudge is packed.
Degenerate media.
Wow. What a freakin’ tantrum. Lemon is a deranged queer. When even Kasich is like, “Whoa, get a grip, man,” you know the dude has lost it. I have to think that, to some extent, the general public must see people like Lemon as “the boy who cried Trump.” Lemon and his ilk been obsessively bashing Trump now for nearly 5 years, constantly trying to gin up outrage over everything and anything he’s done. Even if they were now to find some legitimate point to criticize him, would anyone (other than the hardcore anti-Trumpers) take them seriously?
I watched this exchange.
Kasich was 100 % supportive of Trump.
What happened was Lemon was being a leftist stooge. As he always is. Always.
He thought Kasich was the (””conservative” we hired to attack Trump on queue”).
As he, and even I, frankly thought he was.
What happened was that Kasich said basically he thought Trump was right.
Lemon was flabbergasted.
Didn’t know what to say.
This is not why we hired you, you could see him thinking. You are supposed to attack Trump.
Kasich again supported Trump.
Lemon totally lost it.
It was amazing to watch.
Good job, Kasich, actually.
Ask this question about any government proposal. Does delaying my tax return reduce the flu problem. Does reducing my taxes reduce the flu problem. Does giving money to some reduce the problem. Does anything the government ever does reduce problems. With a very few it only adds to problems. The more government the more problems. And very few worthwhile solutions.
I asked myself and the answer was yes.
The flu problem is more than the disease. It includes the effect on people & the panic. These actions will blunt the financial aspect of the “flu” problem.
I asked myself why someone would pose those questions when the answer was so obvious. That was an easy question to answer as well.
time to refer to it as a panDEMic.
Lemon is seriously deranged.
11 Mar: NBC: Biden campaign forms coronavirus advisory committee
by Adam Edelman
Joe Biden’s presidential campaign has formed a public health advisory committee to assist it with responding to the rapidly spreading coronavirus.
In a statement, the Biden campaign said it formed the body “to provide science-based, expert advice regarding steps the campaign should take to minimize health risks for the candidate, staff, and supporters.”...
The campaign said the committee would consist of six members — all doctors or former government officials — including Dr. Zeke Emanuel, a noted oncologist, the vice provost of global initiatives at the University of Pennsylvania and the brother of former Obama chief of staff, Rahm Emanual...
https://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-news/live-blog/coronavirus-updates-live-u-s-cases-top-1-000-spread-n1155241/ncrd1155836
Zeke also worked with the Obama Admin. plus MSM covering the above so soberly are not making any reference to:
Oct 2014: TheAtlantic: Why I Hope to Die at 75
An argument that society and families — and you — will be better off if nature takes its course swiftly and promptly
Story by Ezekiel J. Emanuel
For many reasons, 75 is a pretty good age to aim to stop...
The situation becomes of even greater concern when we confront the most dreadful of all possibilities: living with dementia and other acquired mental disabilities...
What about simple stuff? Flu shots are out. Certainly if there were to be a flu pandemic, a younger person who has yet to live a complete life ought to get the vaccine or any antiviral drugs. A big challenge is antibiotics for pneumonia or skin and urinary infections...
Obviously, a do-not-resuscitate order and a complete advance directive indicating no ventilators, dialysis, surgery, antibiotics, or any other medication — nothing except palliative care even if I am conscious but not mentally competent — have been written and recorded...
https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2014/10/why-i-hope-to-die-at-75/379329/
surely, given the legitimate questions about Biden’s mental health, and the fact Covid-19 appears to be more virulent towards an older demographic - and may required antibiotics, antivirals & ventilators - Zeke should recuse himself from the Advisory Committee!
COVID-19 Update As of 03/11/2020 23:13 PST
These numbers include Mainland China and All Others globally
The good news this morning is that yesterday 03/11/20 mid afternoon PDT, Taiwan began reporting it's
own numbers again. Hong Kong and Macau's numbers are now reported with Mainland China's numbers.
I had trust in Hong Kong and Macau's numbers. Now, not so much.

Today, the John's Hopkins University site reported out half the recovered numbers
by noon, and more by late afternoon PDT. It was reasoned, and for the first time
in ten days, appropriate.
The last column there shows the numbers of active cases. You will note how
they were dropping, then started increasing again. Here are the last nine days
drop & then growth numbers.
03/03: -494 03/04: -532 03/05: 823 03/06: 1,745 03/07: 1,298 03/08: 1,610 03/09: 2,041 03/10: 2,815 03/11: 4,264Observations:
As you can tell, the active cases are heating up. With this type of daily
growth, we will top the old peak of 58,809 active cases within thirty-six
hours. The previous peak was reached on 02/17/20, so we had 23 days to
enjoy lower numbers. Later today on the 12th, or possible in the early
morning hours of the 13th, we will be in uncharted terriotry again.
The mortality rate that went as low as 5.65% on the 7th, has now
grown back up to 6.36%. The majority of new cases are coming from outside
China. Again, in a few days, we should see the lag upswing in recovered
patients growing considerably. When that happens, it will take some of the
pressure off the growth in activecases, and the up-ticks in the mortality rate.
There was an uptick in resolved cases today. I hope we are beginning to see
ripe cases bearing recovery fruit. It will take a day or two to see if these
elevated numbers remain, or if that was a single day fluke.
COVID-19 cases outside China now make up 72.10% of global active cases.
The growth rate of active cases today was 5,608 active cases.
The numbers and percentages of resolved cases has continued to hold up pretty
well. On 03/07 at 18:03 PST the percentage peaked at 59.918% of all documented
cases having been resolved. As of the EOD 03/11, that percentage had slid to
57.756%. With these massive 'out of control' reports of new cases popping up,
it's a wonder we're still talking about over 55% of all declared cases having
been resolved.
These numbers address the cases outside of Mainland China.

The Process
JHU says there are about 116 nations reporting right now. I'm tracking eight other
entities that have dropped off their reports. I'm not sure why this happens, but I
don't want to have the numbers I've captured, deleted. They'll remain in my database.
There have been various head-aches with JHU data reporting recently.
1. JHU was reporting out New Cases and Deaths early, then waiting ten hours to post
recovery numbers. That changed today, after ten days. A large number of recovery
numbers were released before noon PDT, and then again before 18:00. Much better.
2. JHU seems to have more than one person entering data. A nation will be entered
as follows. South Korea. An new tech comes in and sees numbers for the Republic
of South Korea and enters them under that name. Sometimes they have two listings for
one nation. Other times they'll delect the old name listing, enter the data under the
new name. The next day the other person comes in and balks at the change, and changes
it back. What a major pin. I'm deleting and adding in new entities constantly.
3. Today they cleaned up their files and deleted about five entities. I've been keeping
records for those entities for a few days or for up to a week or more. All of a sudden
the entity isn't on the list. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
I have manipulate the data to post rigth under where I need to update. As I go along,
the data lines up. All of a sudden it doesn't. Entities are added, they disappear, or
they are relocated. I've come up with a pretty decent way to deal with this. Before I
had done so, it took me over an hour to process one update that generally takes just ten
minutes or so.
4. Then there is the issue of the three main numbers they post. Total Cases, Deaths, and
Recoveries. Lets say they update at 23:23. (Side note: They almost always post the
new report on the threes. That doesn't always happen, but you can look at the spread
sheet and see it happens what seems like 90% plus of the time.) JHU will put up a new
report. A few minutes after that report, they start updating the main numbers.
The problem is, I downlod the death numbers list. I download the recovery numbers list.
I also download the list of nations and their declared cases.
If I don't catch it just right, they update things before I've completed capturing the
data. And it only takes me a minute or two to do that.
As of today I am beginning to update from the lists. Nations, deaths, and recoveries.
In this manner, I can match up the data. I have to do that so that I can make sure I've
entered my data accurately. I use check sums, and have the computer add sums so that I
can check them manually.
When JHU, changes things, it causes my proces to go squirrely. And I have enough issues
with that on my own. LOL

All data below sourced from Johns Hopkins University: LINK
I have been downloading three to five reports per day since 01/27. I have then
worked up numbers that should give a very good representation of numbers that
have been provided to the public via that site.
In my spreadsheet linked below, you'll find global numbers including China. You
will find a separate section addressing just the Outside China figures. Then
there is now also a section with just the United States stats in there. There
are also a lot of special stats broken out for you to browse. The history of
115 nations and their numbers from day one of their reporting.
You're welcome to it.

I now have an XLS file again, but it is for viewing only. I had to do a wrap-
around to get it to fit in the XLS file format. On the top right you will see
nations 1-70 listed. I cut and pasted nations 71-115 under them. You'll
see what I mean.

Wow! I guess Kaysuck finally realized there is no future in never-Trumpism. I wonder if this means Jonah Goldberg will be surrendering soon???
The anti-Trump crowd wouldn’t be happy even if he died. They’d complain that it didn’t happen sooner and in a more painful way.
Fake media. Fake Congress. Fake Justice. Alternate Universe?
The left is in panDEMonium.
Great work on a daunting task. Thanks for sharing. I would love to be on the list.
It’s going to take some time looking at those numbers to puzzle out even some of the implications.
The percentage increase by country is fascinating. There seems to be groups with roughly similar growth perhaps based on where in the life cycle of COVID-19 infection they are.
LOL!! May the AIDS be with him!!
