Administration won’t answer Senators on why we didn’t use WHO tests like 60+ other countries and which were available 5 weeks before our first community spread case in the US.

Someone made the decision that USA #1 just had to create their own tests instead of using the WHO tests. I wonder who?

Drawing live to my suspicion that some Republican made money making the tests.

You going to vote with Dems Abroad in the primary? Remember that that’s not a thing in the General, must have a US address.

From wapo:

An attendee of the Conservative Political Action Conference — a major annual right-wing gathering held in Maryland this February — tested positive Saturday for coronavirus, the host organization said.

This year’s four-day event drew a range of senior administration officials, including President Trump and Vice President Pence. But the host group, American Conservative Union (ACU), said in a statement Saturday evening that the patient did not interact with the president or vice president and “never attended the events in the main hall.”

This is deeply troubling. Thoughts and prayers.

On the plus side, if government officials start getting it then it might start to get taken more seriously.

Lol, it’s starting. Israel is going to require that travelers from some parts of the United States undergo a two week self-quarantine.

Israel’s response has been impressive considering it does not have a functioning governing body for over a year.
My brother-in-law has been in quarantine since returning from Austria.

Honestly this coronavirus is just an unbelievable deux ex machine for the series finale. This entire season has really gone downhill, the writers are just phoning it in at this point.

The ultimate irony is going to be when they start locking US citizens up at the border trying to enter most other countries. Sounds like it’s about to happen.

He also legit threatened an armed civil war now that his opposition seems to have a majority and aim to outlaw the option of indicted prime minister. Some child labor is just a regular Tuesday.

I do think that if Israel can’t get it under control no one would. It has basically one airport, no open land borders anywhere, population used to military catastrophes, decent health system.

Just like in World War Z.

Played poker for like 7 hours today. Room was pretty standard for the time of day. Rest of the casino seemed pretty busy actually.

Took a break to wash my hands just about every hour. People were still doing the normal of biting their nails, eating food with their fingers, etc. One time when washing my hands an older guy who left one of the stalls was about to leave the bathroom when he turned around and said “oh better wash my hands cause of that virus thing”. He proceeded to spend literally 3 seconds running his hands under the water and then left. So there’s that…
