No symptoms, gets immediately tested.

Sounds about right.

Now, going back to watch "Parasite" again.

Default Rand Paul, the only Senator to vote against the Corona virus relief bill....

...becomes the first Senator to contract COVID-19.

Oh no! Not Rand. I hope that he shared it with the corrupt senators.

Well, fortunately for him, his money and connections and health insurance will ensure that nothing bad happens to him. He probably has plenty of toilet paper too that he didn't need to shop for.

Good. Now maybe they’ll accomplish something (unlikely).

This method may be a good idea presently. Be sure to go to the closed town hall and obtain a fire permit though.
I wonder what they'll start charging for the privilege of sitting between two entities that occur in nature?

No contact with an infected case either.

Look at that press release. It's the most defensive announcement I've ever seen.

LOL

The largest hospital healthcare system in my state had to shut down all drive thru testing facilities for prescreened sick people. Those with the dry cough and fever, including front line healthcare workers and pharmacists told to go home and isolate.

Here is a healthy Congress Critter getting a test, despite no symptoms.

Get well soon Rand. Your taking his vote out of context, he wanted us to not go further into debt and cut something to pay for it. We all know the only thing Washington can agree on is massive deficits
