Coronavirus

[Doc Holliday]

Just wondering if any of you guys got tested for Covid-19?

In a week or so my area will start testing people for antibodies to COVID-19. I hope anyone who wants to get a test can get one, although i doubt they'll test people with no symptoms. It wouldn't surprise me if i do test positive for antibodies. I spent a week in Toronto at the end of February and returned home in March and a week to 10 days later i spent several in bed with flu/cold symptoms & ended up missing several days of work, which is a rarity for me. I spent time riding the subway & in populated areas (Eaton Centre, Rogers Centre, Metro Convention Centre, etc) so it wouldn't totally surprise me that the bug i caught was during my time in Toronto & i started experiencing symptoms 7-10 days later. But only undergoing a test as soon as i'm allowed to (although i'm currently asymptomatic) will let me know for sure if i was exposed or not.

Really?? That's odd. Donald Trump mentioned that it was extremely uncomfortable.

There are different tests..mine was the way EB described it. Deep nasal swab that makes you gag and feel like you’re drowning for a few seconds.

Thanks. I believe you. I was being sarcastic since i'd give away one month of my paycheque if Donald Trump actually did get tested. He's such a fucking pussy & phony who lies 95% everytime he opens his tiny round mouth that i doubt he'd ever tell the truth about getting tested.

Heck, he fucked pornstars & hookers for years without wearing a condom & believes 100% that he's invincible to any std or virus so do you honestly believe he'd get a coronavirus test? Especially one involving a nasal swal that makes you gag and feel like your drowning? No fucking way in hell!

Just wondering if any of you guys got tested for Covid-19? I have heard that the test is a long swab that is inserted deeply into the nasal cavity in a corkscrew motion, much like the swab inserted and corkscrewed deeply into the penis for an STD test. Was this also your experience?

Think the swab is inserted several inches into the nose and supposed to end somewhat below & parallel to the brain. A common mistake often made is that the swab is shoved towards the brain

After the deep insertion comes the corkscrew motion uke:

Seems like this poor health minister has just as tough a job as Tony Fauci

how much of the plaquenil do you give?

Is there anyone you don't given it to?

These 4 countries are viewed as the 4 best governmental responses to the pandemic:

I'll tell you how without even having to read the article: by not claiming the coronavirus was a hoax and that it would 'all go away' like magic by April. By taking the advice of your experts & inteligence agencies back in December & January. By not sitting on your fat ass & do nothing other than tweet, golf, attend many rallies & try to start a war with Iran from January to March. By not waiting until spring break is over to finally close down the beaches. And so on. That's how you properly respond to an incoming pandemic.

Although many posts in this thread speculated that Chinese wet markets were the origin of Covid-19, it is now being somewhat widely reported that there is an investigation into whether the release came from a Wuhan Lab studying coronaviruses in bats:

Although the lab theory is entirely valid the chinese wet markets are still a tremendous problem for the world's health and should be shut down by the chinese government. Way too many viruses & epidemics come out of those markets. SARS originated in one of those markets. Many other viruses. And likely this one. The chinese government has full power over every single individual in China. It would be extremely easy for it to shut down those wet markets.

Doc, I am no Trump fan but you are wrong about this. He never called it a hoax..the MSM twisted his words and ran with the headlines. Look it up..even Facebook fact checked those articles and flagged them as giving false info.

C'est exactement ce que l'Islande a fait.

That is correct. But he did say he had it under control and that the virus would 'disappear'... It's fox news that called it a hoax.

But let's be fair. Most other countries did not see that coming as well or we would have starting to prepare for this in January. Which no country did (except maybe south-korea).

The problem with the USA is the coming election. Trump is politicizing this every chance he gets. People are dying because of his decision based on looking good to raise his political campaign.

Donald Trump said Canada was doing a good job of controlling the spread of COVID-19 and said closing the border could be one of the very first preventive measures to be lifted.

He made the comment Wednesday during his daily press conference from the White House.

The two neighboring countries have imposed a travel ban across the border for non-essential travel. The ban, which has been in effect for almost a month, is set to end on April 21, unless extended.

The decision to reopen the border, however, does not depend solely on American will, while the United States is still grappling with the heaviest death toll in the world in terms of people infected with COVID-19.

The epidemic is particularly virulent in the state bordering New York.

In Canada, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has reiterated that measures to prevent the spread of the coronavirus will have to remain in place for several weeks.

What do you think?

Donny,

How is it that the girl in that video is sitting so still and calm?

I think it's a very good thing.

But what about Trump?

Gov. Cuomo and Mr. Trump don't always agree.

Trump, Trump. Trump Trump Trump.

The governor is in charge of the state. So, what about Trump? Nothing.

Trump, Trump. Trump Trump Trump.

 

[jalimon]

As much as I despise Trumpet I think there is way too much emphasis on him (and he likes that...).

And not enough on China. At least today the WHO ask them the close down their wet market. But more needs to be done.

The cover up and their numbers of cases do not make a fucking sense.

Exactly! The President of the United States is only at the head of one of three branches of the American Government. He also has no say in what the State Governors chose to do for the states they're in charge of. They're the boss of their states, not Donald Fucking Trump!

If it were me i'd group up all those MAGA morons and put them all on a big cruise ship & let them sail away far away.....very, very far away! America would be 100% better off without Trump & his band of morons!

What do you think?

What do i think? If i'm Trudeau there's no fucking way i'm re-opening the border until at least 2021. If not we'll all be back to square one since the United States will continue being the world's epicentre of the coronavirus as long as a moron like Donald Trump is still the President!

So as long as there is still no reliable vaccine available there is no fucking way that the borders should be re-opened....ESPECIALLY NOT THE AMERICAN BORDER!! If the Canadian government has to wait until 2022 to re-open the border than so be it!
