What is it with these boobish politicians? Either they can’t follow the simplest health instructions or they are trying to garner sympathy. Which is it?

The problem with being a public servant is having to meet the public. Kings can rule in splendid isolation. Prime Ministers cannot.

Boris gives a video message with his tweet. He doesn't look sick...

He’s probably the one who infected Prince Charles. I wonder if he had contact with the queen recently.

No one is suggesting he act like a monarch. But he’s not even following basic rules like washing his hands (refusing to shakes hands) or using hand sanitizer? Avoiding huge crowds during grocery store ribbon cuttings? C’mon. Trump and Pence haven’t tested positive.

They, either unfortunately or fortunately, meet with a lot of people. This virus is a social network virus.
Those of us living out here on small farms in flyover country are pretty much immune.
Those of you living in big cities mingling with thousands every day are pretty much screwed.
No judgement, just an observation.

Luckily, April is only five or so days from now, and itll be warming up somebody advised this and so the China Virus will be disappearing quickly. Then maybe we can get back to Greg Gutfeld-Tomi Lahren-type jokes about this Democrat hoax of a virus and continue to downplay it.
See you all at church on Easter Sunday!

Not surprising that politicians are getting covid-19 due to the nature of their job.

80% have mild or no symptoms. The remaining 20% get the third degree. Some of that 20% requires hospitalization. Most survive, but that’s where the body count comes from.

No one is screwed if they take even minimal precautions. I have family in NYC and none of them have shown the virus symptoms and I pray they won’t. But then, they are isolating themselves only venturing into Central Park on sunny days to soak up the Vitamin D,.

He looks the very picture of ruddy health, and presumably has the best medical care a PM can command, with a physician following him around. He’ll be fine.

Did I say I was worried about him?
To: miss marmelstein
My first reaction was that he probably caught it from another world leader who is infected but doesnt even know it.

FWIW, Monaco’s Prince Albert (not in a can) is getting the blame for infecting Chuck.
