Suddenly tons of republicans are testing positive, just in time to be a case, and then recover - before the election.

Is this the republican October Surprise?

[rlbedfor]

All these folks getting covid. Very odd and I am not wearing my tinfoil hat. Something is amiss.

The Senate has to vote in person. It’s in their rules.

[wastedyears]

Things really are coming to a head now.

[Pride in the USA]

So many senators and White House reporters diagnosed with the virus yesterday and today.

[canuck_conservative]

They can do the final vote in person, but the hearings virtually

Democrats and their Big Media pals will not derail this

[sissyjane]

Heard yesterday that Ronna caught the virus from a family member.

[LilFarmer]

Do you know if she attended the Barret nomination?

[dforest]

no

The variant strain out there isn't that contagious. My good friend had it in her office. She ate lunch with a woman who had it while she had a sore throat, fatigue, etc. She never got it. In fact, only one other person got it and that was a man who shared a small office with her and said they sat close together at the computer one day. (He had been to work all week symptomatic and there is question who started the outbreak)

Strange, though, a father and son who worked in the warehouse got it at the same time. They drove to work together.

thanks for posting that. I am too lazy to look. So the barrett event was before the debate. This would coincide with how long it takes for some people to show symptoms.

Let’s say Johnson caught it at the debate. He is showing positive pretty quickly meaning the viral load was high enough to detect.

No idea what test he used.

The timeline of this all is interesting

here is a great post from James woods about biden

No, they were not at the ceremony where the people were probably infected.

[dforest]

Rules can be changed for emergencies.

[dforest]

Hope Hicks was at the ceremony. McDaniel may have been.

They can suit up in a biohazard suit and go vote, I don’t care how they have to do it.

[RummyChick]

more than one strain out there

it is possible, in theory, that those people who were close enough to her got it but their genetics and or viral load allowed their T cells to kick it.

But it sounds like her version was not as sinister as the one Trump caught as it is spreading quickly
