Television personality and practicing surgeon, Dr. Oz, joined FOX and Friends Weekend on Sunday for an hour to discuss the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
During the discussion Dr. Oz told the co-hosts President Trump should not have had the coronavirus test. “He didn’t fit the criteria. He didn’t show symptoms.”
Dr. Oz also explained that the virus is likely to have been in the US for months.
Dr. Oz: Now that he got tested without any symptoms why wouldn’t the average say, “Hey, just test me too!”… We don’t have enough units. We can’t get people tested who probably should be tested… If I had enough tests I would test every single American right now. You know why? Because it would give us epidemiologic data about what’s really happening. I am positive that I know people who were infected but didn’t realize it because it happened before coronavirus is here. There is someone I know who was actually at a party at the Oscars with the cast members of “Parasite” a Korean movie who got fevers, shortness of breath, fatigue. I have no idea if he had coronavirus or not. But he thinks he did. Now you hear these stories and you are like this has been around. A lot of people had this and didn’t realize it. 80% of people had very subtle symptoms. They had a fever most of the time but nothing that would catch your eye. And so we don’t actually know how long it’s been out there.

I believe I had it since I flew in Jan 4th and 8th. The lady next to me was sick-on the way back.
Symptoms the exact of what they say.
Other than the higher fever-it was not as bad as the resp infection I had in 09 or 10.
I’ve wondered the same. Assuming a purely natural origin, who is to say this virus has not been floating around for many months or years? It was only discovered when a large cluster formed in a particular place (Wuhan) where it was able to be observed clearly.
For expert opinions I'd look to the Chief of Infectious Diseases at a major Boston,NYC,Baltimore or San Francisco hospital or the Dean of an institution like the Harvard School of Public Health.
It’s not that PDJT need to..its to shut those leftard aholes once and for all the rumor that he has it. And at the majir studio im in, I overheard the faggot libs PRAYING he has it because they know he met with Bolsinaro. I had to control mysrlf not to strangle these pukes from talkibg smack about tge prez..
But..but..? HIV and AIDS...?
“The larger point is that we all carry some form of virus most of the time. Most never make is sick.“
He is right. We live in the biological soup that comprises the biosphere of this planet and we cannot isolate ourselves from everything. If this country tries to live like Michael Jackson germaphobes and hide away from one another then this country will fail.
My pleasure.
People in my town have been taking their kids to the doctor for weeks for a sickness that doesn’t test as the flu or any known virus. Doctors have been saying that they don’t know what it is but it has flu-like symptoms. More and more parents are starting to think it was Covid-19 before it became known. Most adults with the symptoms probably didn’t even go to the doctor. All doctors have been saying was “unknown respiratory virus”. Everybody I know of has recovered.
NO DUH DR OZ..its been around for MONTHS. I know at least 2 maybe more who believe they had it. My sisters two neighbors, they BOTH were very sick, the husband had pneumonia and a high fever, dry cough, body aches, etc..the wife had a bad cough, no pneumonia, high fever, etc..it took them both about 2 weeks to feel better but both were SO tired from the virus it took them a while to feel better..the two kids, one age 4 and the 6 month old baby never got sick..both hubby and wife were never tested for the flu they were just told “Oh its probably influenza B go home feel better!”
I got my flu shot last September and still came down with something late in the year.
I had flu and pneumonia shots in the fall. Then in early December I got a weird sickness (for me) starting with a very sore throat and Dr said it was bronchitis...it was all I could do to get off the couch and go to the Dr. I started to recover and then it came back again but by end of December I was back to normal.
But I never had a fever and I’m wondering if it’s possible to have had this but no fever.
Maybe many of us are immune but don’t know it. Can you catch the disease twice? That seems to me to be a very important question.
Didn’t Trump say two months ago that if his administration found a cure for the virus, they would want to impeach him for not doing it sooner and letting people die
Wow, Doc Oz is sure stupid when it comes to politics, national leadership, and improving national confidence.
****I***********************************
I remember when he had the young inbred Muslim boy “Clock Ahmed” on his show and feted him as a genius.
But wasn’t Trump exposed to the Brazilian president (or some official from Brazil) who later tested positive?
The people saying “He shouldn’t have been tested” were probably secretly hoping he would get tested and would be positive.
If he is right, then we have already seen the worst of it.
bttt
As everybody’s body is different.anything is possible
I think my husband had it in January. He works at a rural hospital. He and his boss were under the weather with a cough and feeling drained for about 2 weeks. Another co-worker in his department caught it and almost died due to underlying conditions (diabetic). She was hospitalized for 5 weeks and is still recuperating at home. Symptoms weren’t like the typical flu.
