It's not his fault.
There is little he can do right now.

But as we see the numbers grow exponentially -- even in communities without spring breakers, etc........not sure that is going to be a realistic option.
Evaluation is absolutely a normal thing to do.

About 10k new cases already today, the single biggest daily increase anywhere in the world so far.

I don't think COVID-19 cares about Trump's 15-day evaluation.

If you listen to how he has talked in the last oh 5/10 minutes he thinks he can eat his cake and still have it too. He should know that you cannot. I want to see how it is next week this time, but I tend to think that even if we do remove the bandage there is a good chance that we will irritate the skin and the wound is not healed yet.

Birx: 99% of deaths are people over 50. I'll say it again. Anyone under 50 and otherwise healthy should be free to go to work or wherever they want EXCEPT within 6 feet of anyone over 50. Over 50 you are locked down. No leaving your house, period except for medical emergency. Gov will provide food and supply delivery if needed. Even if the under 50s get sick, and they will, they will have a benign course. Those that need hospital beds for a brief time will be able to get them if they are not all being taken up by people over 50. The under 50s will quickly gain immunity sufficient to stop the virus or slow it to the point that it can be managed in the over 50s after they are let out.

A press release from Banner Health, based in Arizona, said the husband and wife, both in their 60s, took an additive called chloroquine phosphate used to clean fish tanks, to try to prevent coronavirus.

I understand Hong Kong is having the same problem. That's why we have to be careful.

Just read another article that there is a CDC report out that said the virus lived 17 days after the passengers left the Princess Cruise.

Default Florida governor orders all incoming New Yorkers to self-quarantine

Makes no sense at this point

Quote:
New Yorkers who flee to Florida during the coronavirus outbreak will have to self quarantine for two weeks when they arrive — or risk facing criminal charges, the Sunshine State’s governor said Monday.
Gov. Ron DeSantis said he was issuing the executive order that would apply to all travelers from New York City, which, as of Monday, has recorded 12,305 cases of the virus. By comparison, Florida so far has 1,100 cases.

Sad, but not surprising.
