No, The guy said that the hospital sent him home after learning he has not been to China, so the hospital sent him home without giving him a test.

Ken

I want to know, in the video above, what else rush stated. I don't want lord to go find something on rush's website that may or may not agree with what he is trying to say.



lord provided the video above, I want to know exactly what rush said in this extremely biased video cut, lord provided....nothing more nothing less....anything else just means that lord or anyone that supports lord is just selling something their ass cannot handle.

This is an international company.

We are seriously lacking on testing.
Bring a member of Congress works, I hear. There are 255 tests available in my state according to the state health dept. One of them might have been wasted on the likes of Paul Gosar.

It's a global crisis and every country's leaders are doing what they can, as best as they can with the resources they have on hand.

But way too many people are treating this as "just like the flu" and doing little to nothing about being a responsible citizen and avoiding crowds and staying home as much as possible.

We're not going to contain it as long as this is happening:

The guy said he sang in his church choir, his wife is a flight attendant, and his son is in the law enforcement.
The wife hasn't been tested yet!

Wow, never thought some hospital can be this bad. Gonna have to check the date, and see when this patient has been admitted to the hospital. Date is important here because situation should be improving this coming week.

If you want to know what ELSE Rush said, go ahead and find it. Nothing stopping you. Go for it.
I proved my point. Rush said the coronavirus is the common cold, he ADMITS he said it. and he explained the context.
