I am no Trump fan. Won't vote for him in November. And that's fine.

But I'm really appalled by the press's handling of this virus on every level.

The hysteria. The doomsday clickbait scare tactics. It's absolutely disgusting. I have to say CNN is the worst of them all.

I've been studying a lot of data around this thing and am gaining cautious optimism that it's not as bad as once feared.

Dr. Brix made a lot of points tonight that I've been saying for days. That it's way more prevalent than thought. Which affects the severity math in a positive light. Probably has been circulating for a while (I think millions are probably infected in the US). That means it's more mild, and it'll burn out quicker.

She was appointed by Obama. But she's been attacked by the Twitterati throughout this whole thing. And if she says anything positive, all of a sudden she's part of the "cult". Why? Because she's on the task force? Pretty gross. She's a smart woman.

You should really learn how to google.
I am surprised they made it this far into their lives if they were stupid enough to heed the advice of Dr. Trump, stable genius and epedmeologst, Inc .

Only they didn't take "medicine". They ate fish tank cleaner.

The MSM is saying "medicine" but it wasn't.

Here's the source news:
http://bannerhealth.mediaroom.com/chloroquinephosphate

A man has died and his wife is under critical care after the couple, both in their 60s, ingested chloroquine phosphate, an additive commonly used at aquariums to clean fish tanks. Within thirty minutes of ingestion, the couple experienced immediate effects requiring admittance to a nearby Banner Health hospital.

How the hell did they come up with that?

Okay, I admit that I might be slightly paranoid, but I find it extremely suspicious that so many of the links that I've found that support the "might not be as bad as initially feared" theory are later "Page Not Found".
