He thinks a drug trial is just giving it to people. He has bought millions of units of the anti-malaria drug. You don't need millions of units to handle compassionate exemption FDA requests. Antsy in his pantsy. So if it doesn't workout, how many decades of anti-malaria drug do we stock pile? What is the shelf-life?
It looks like the Remdesivir outcomes are not due for a few weeks. I would have thought some information would have trickled out by now.

Re: All things Chinese CoronaVirus
Help me understand how they would know testing has slowed down, as in just today? Are test kits logged in and out of a central database before they can be used?
A fraudulent intent, however carefully concealed at the outset, will generally, in the end, betray itself.

Re: All things Chinese CoronaVirus
So the Orange Turd really put on a performance for us today. His ending rant about how he has taken an old FDA system not meant for today's crisis is such horseshlt. Fauci just put his head down and wouldn't look up. He has got to be thinking about leaving. He can play the political game and does, but even he can only put up with so much horseshlt.

Re: All things Chinese CoronaVirus
He is a total and absolute POS. His answer to a legit question from a reporter of what he would tell those Amercans who are scared and worried tells us all we need to know about the lack of leadership coming from the top.
He's no FDR but actually thinking about how FDR ran things at a time of similar crisis is somewhat hopeful. Think about that - FDR remains inspiring even though he's DEAD but he remains that more so than the current DOPUS.

Unemployment averaged 18 percent during Roosevelt’s first eight years in office. Best President ever!
The absolute POS said he was hopeful. And that the total federal effort combined with American peoples cooperation was improving the situation. Thats all. Such a lack of leadership.

But go ahead and keep voting Republican.
At least the Dems try and pay the bills.
You should have a word with the four most bankrupt states in America...all four of which are and have been run by Democrats for decades.

So the Catholic Church in Italy is cancelling all church services. In the history of the Catholic Church, this has never happened. Even the bubonic plague didn't shutter the churches.

No. I had noticed that the JHU COVID site was not updating the US numbers. Other countries were being updated. US numbers are now beginning to trickle in but not as fast as they should given the testing that is claimed to be taking place.youthathletics wrote: ↑Fri Mar 20, 2020 1:12 pmHelp me understand how they would know testing has slowed down, as in just today?

Re: All things CoronaVirus
i'm less upset about the insider trading than I am about the lying. At the exact same time he was warning elite insiders of the truth about the coming pandemic, Burr was penning skies-are-blue op-eds for the rest of us.DocBarrister wrote: ↑Fri Mar 20, 2020 1:50 pm Doing just a little bit of insider trading really isn’t much of a defense against insider trading.
And what about my Senator, Diane Feinstein (D,CA)??? Also on the intelligence committee, also sold stock.
POS's, all of them! They KNEW, and said nothing to the general public.
Were they told this info was classified??? If so, Trump and his toadies in the Deep State (what, you didn't know that the Deep State is actually run by Trump???) deserve a lot of the blame. But no pass to the IC members who went along, instead of obeying their oaths of office.

Well, we sure as heck hope so!jhu72 wrote: ↑Fri Mar 20, 2020 10:11 amYes of course. I have always thought the 60% estimate was high. I suspect at the end of the day we will come in lower.

No politics please.
If in Wuhan China—the epicenter for this virus since December—and with population higher but comparable to California—has only had 82,000 cases.
And seems to be declining in any new cases.
How can Gavin Newsome claim 25 million Californians will be infected. They are Chicoms but being able to conceal 25 million cases?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template: ... ical_cases
ps: only 250K cases globally to date
The 25 million number sounds high to me. Given the expert estimates, half of that number is easily justifiable and probably closer to the truth. Probably in the 13 to 19 range, if you believe Fauci. Half of those will show no symptoms, just spread it to others.
That's in range of what the predictions are absent sufficient response.
Newsom appears to be saying that, given no ability to do surveillance testing and selective quarantine, the only way to avoid such a spread is total lockdown.
He's trying to make clear why that lockdown is critical.
I'm actually an optimist too, have to be to take the kind of entrepreneurial and sports risks I have throughout my life!
But I've always found that the best way to manage risk to look it square in the eye, understand the worst case scenarios frontally and continuously.
The 60% is absent an effective response.
So far, no nation or state or province has put up zero response, so we certainly hope no one actually hits that 60% level.
Doesn't make the 60% incorrect, though, if we fiddle while Rome is burning.
We get to those levels and we could have a real break down in society.
