Local Miami news media just did about 45 seconds on Trump’s press conference...never mentioned the stock market.

It was a woman and she was a pest.

She was trying to suggest that Trump self-quarantine himself because he took a picture with someone who apparently has tested positive.

Trump said his White House doctors have told him that he demonstrates no symptoms, and that he does not need testing right now.

Trump did say that he eventually plans to get tested.

"I am doing well, hardly know I have a pacemaker keeping my heart beating normally."

Well, I'm glad you are doing well. My symptoms were heart palpitations, headache, weakness, shakiness, pains in my legs, headache, and my blood pressure was up. I knew something was wrong. It had started slow, and gradually got worse, and after about two weeks I called my family doctor. He was on vacation, and the office suggested I go to the emergency room. That's when they discovered my electrolytes were out of whack. Of course they first checked my heart because of the palpitations, but it wasn't that. They pumped me full of saline, and large quantities of potassium and magnesium. I don't think I've ever felt so crappy in my 72 years of life. I would rather give birth than go through feeling that way again.

What President Trump did today was demonstrate the exact kind of out of the box thinking that's missing in Washington DC today. This was an all-out declaration of war against this virus, not unlike the declaration of war against Germany and Japan during WW2. The same way FedGov used GM and Ford to build war machinery, this President is using Quest Diagnostics, LabCorp, CVS, Walgreens, Google and more to battle against the Wuhan virus. It's brilliant.

That was my take too....war time footing war time President.

Farr’s Law: “Epidemics tend to rise and fall in a roughly symmetrical pattern or bell-shaped curve.”

Would the cash being thrown as you state show up in the futures market over the weekend? Sorry about the most amateurish of questions; generalizing laws I know, stocks not so much.

Jane I am in no way a conspiracy theorist HOWEVER I have my tinfoil hat on I am beginning to believe that this was done purposely, this happened immediately after the signing of phase 1 of new trade deal with China, which China HATED, and I am NOT for one minute giving our own intel agency a break here!! I wouldn’t put one damn thing past them in having something to do with this!! I have NEVER in my life time seen this kind of mass hysteria, the MSM has manage to SHUT DOWN the entire economy of the country AND they are gleeful about it!! Ebola NO hysteria, H1N1 NO hysteria, Hong Kong flu NO hysteria, this whole thing has become absolutely ridiculous!!! Everyone take care of your elderly do their errands for them AND go on with your lives IF you can find ANYTHING OPEN!!!

"Alumiphobia?"

Nah. I like drinking from the 12 or 16 oz. bottles that I can replace the cap on, and not worry about spilling if it gets knocked over. And I keep the caps on the bottles after they're empty, and throw them in my bottle bag, so there's no sticky liquid leaking into the bag or on the outside of the bottle. Even if you rinse cans, they still leak when you toss them in the bag.

Right. I saw that. But she didn’t expressly ask if he would get tested, she made reference to his having said he wouldn’t get tested—and he explained that she was wrong and in fact he was planning to be tested.

But it was in the news about Ivanka spending time with the Brazilian aide. Asking expressly about her probably would have reached Trump on a more personal level, since he always likes an excuse to talk about her anyway.

I got my week’s groceries at the locally owned fresh/organic store and meat counter and filled up my 4x4 for $1.79 per gal after work yesterday-the grocery store was not crowded, there was plenty of toilet paper, bleach, bottled water and hand sanitizer and no line at the gas station on the highway-but this is a pretty remote rural area-I’ve heard that some chain big boxes in the city 50 miles away are low on stuff-I’ll just stay here, isolated with the other rednecks...

To: CincyRichieRich; lodi90

Lodi90 is a pearl clutcher in the extreme.

“How many tests are we going to get for $50 billion? Or is it $58 billion now?”

Tests are about $200 a piece so it comes out to 290 MILLION tests.

Is that enough for you Lodi90 or is another failure meaning we’re ALL GONNA DIE!!!!!!

"I got the measels. I am told it darn near killed me."

I had the measles when I was a kid. Never had the mumps though. My mother told me I had a very bad case of chickenpox as a kid. I was a baby at the time. Caught it from one of my siblings. My oldest son got chickenpox when he was about 5. He didn't have many blisters at all. My youngest was about 9 months old at the time, and had only a couple of blisters. The pediatrician told me that if the mother had a severe case of the pox in their youth, then their children would usually only have a mild case. I don't know how factual that is, but it was true for our family.
