The UC Davis student does not have the corona virus:

Quote:
A student at the University of California, Davis, does not have the highly transmissible new coronavirus and can now leave quarantine, the university announced Saturday. His roommates, who had been put in isolation, also can return to their normal lives. The student, who lived in a dormitory at UCD, had been exposed to someone who had coronavirus and subsequently had come down with a runny nose and cough. https://www.sacbee.com/news/local/he...40773866.html?

Listening to Trump at the press conference today was so FRUSTRATING that I had to stop. He continues his lies about how many Americans are infected with Coronavirus. Why can't he get this number right? I absolutely don't trust anything he says.

True Numbers as of today Saturday Feb 29, 2020
USA 69 cases
1 death
7 recovered
1 in serious condition

Wait until those Washington state Life Care nursing home residents who've tested positive begin to develop the disease.

Of Life Care’s more than 108 residents and roughly 180 staffers, Duchin said 27 residents and 25 staff members have shown coronavirus symptoms.

Infection and deaths among the residents will be way out of proportion to the general population. Their caregivers have also test positive - but presumably they are younger and healthier, so better able to recover or not be as seriously affected. Wonder if the caregivers are quarantined along with the residents? So, now that facility has a staffing problem. No wonder the gov. in that state has declared an emergency.

Of course when all is said and done Trump will say how he saved the country from the cornorvirus virus.

Scientists are still trying to figure out where this virus came from... The pangolin was the prime suspect, but now they are not so sure.

Don't worry, we've been told it's no big deal. Our gov has it under control.

The hoax killed its first victim in Australia, a 78 year old man. There were hundreds of new cases around the globe today and more evidence that the US, without the benefit of testing and quarantine has allowed the virus to take hold in Washington. A disaster is unfolding before our eyes and the Trump admin is more interested in stock prices than American lives.

There's been hundreds or thousands of new confirmed cases every day ... have you not been paying attention? It's gone from roughtly 2,000 cases and 50 deaths a month ago to the the almost 87,000 cases/3000 deaths today.

Honestly, people thought it would spread quicker than it has.
