The question is would they have died when they did if they didn’t contract the virus. It certainly seems like many elderly lives were cut short because of this virus.
Whether it is the unborn we are fighting for or the elderly, we need to do everything practically possible to protect them. In the case of the elderly it would seem to be unduly cruel to isolate them from society for the next 12 months until a vaccine (which they can get for the flu or pneumonia) arrives. From this standpoint Trump should have a major push going on to get as many simple, quick testing machines made as soon as possible so anyone coming in contact with the elderly can be tested beforehand.

Oh, come on. When this stuff gets loose in a nursing home, what would you expect? Virtually everyone is high risk and staff is moving through the entire place all day long.
The best we can hope for is that something like HCQ is both an effective treatment AND is actually administered in time.
But to question whether this is normal? That’s a stretch...and a half.
