That's what we were told -- everyone who is around him was tested daily. But were they?

Nobody is reporting that Hicks was tested Wednesday morning or even Tuesday -- and negative?

I suspect they didn't do all that testing -- maybe a temperature check which really isn't scientific.

Contact tracing & quarantine only works when there is a very small number of index cases.

There is no empirical evidence that handwashing, social distancing or masks prevent spread of this disease. They are recommendations based on wishful thinking. Infection depends not on how many germs you block, but on how many you don't block...and no method is perfect, ie- no method "really" works.
Could you give us the link to a peer-reviewed study that shows this, please? Preferably one published in a major medical journal.

I'll bet Trump is going to insist on shaking hands before the next debate.

Trump and Pence are done 32 days to go no more rallies Trump White house in Crises. Trump after down playing the virus does nothing for Trump to fake this. He had doctors who are testing him very few doctors are going to risk their professional reputation they spent so many years building to help Trump fake this. Karma has a way of getting even.

Now which one sounds like he's trying to find an out?

Trump tanked in the debate. Everyone knows it, even the MAGAs right here on C-D know it. That's why this sudden COVID-19 thing has everyone wondering if it's a ploy.

The really telling thing is, no one would put it past him to tell such an egregious lie. Everyone can imagine him doing it without a problem. And that really is a problem.
No, his campaign just had Nancy Pelosi and all the left wing talking heads do it for him.

Then after the first debate, they all started saying he shouldn't debate Trump again.

Now they want to change the rules? I would be skeptical of that too, considering who it is we are dealing with.

Trump did great in the debates. He only screwed up the white supremacist part. Other than that, he was great. Biden screwed up a lot, by comparison, and he seemed like a feeble old man.

I don't think he was rushed, but he did go for an unplanned visit.
