(21,405 posts)he doesn't want to test, it will make him look bad. People who die aren't being tested for coronavirus, they just get buried.

All he cares about is his image.

(5,725 posts)It negates the need to send the tests to the national lab in Manitoba. As of 2 days ago, B.C., with a population of 5.1 million, had tested more people than had been tested in all of the U.S.

(6,265 posts)republican concern about the election optics in their response to the coronavirus. What this shows me is that the trump virus that causes the total submission to willful ignorance, stupidity has totally infected our government apparatus. Even science-based organizations like CDC. They will let it get out of hand.

(16,402 posts)I'm going to start calling it that right now. This virus is going to bury his monstrous ego in November, so it's perfectly appropriate to name it after him. (I may also start referring to it occasionally as "Donny's Doom" just for fun. )

(45,530 posts)requires all sorts of exceptions. Like we should use thoughts and prayers instead of testing and treatment. And you should have worn protective gear, or worked harder in life, or been born into a wealthier family, or whatever since it's all your fault.
The American solution may be for sick people to be around rich people and let the rich ones get tested.

(2,412 posts)They also want the poor and homeless to disappear, fewer on the welfare rolls, fewer expenses so they can have more tax cuts. Also if the angry rabble die off, less push back from The Left!!!!
Also this fits in with their narrative about evil liberals in the cities. Cities are microbe factories.
The good church folks in rural areas are protected by god!

(5,182 posts)She needs this test now.
This is why other nations are establishing quarantine measures.
Of course in this country, the quarantine will be recommended but unenforced and not monitored.
And, just like the response this nurse got from the CDC, they are doubting she even has the Covid 19.
So the ratios will be skyrocketing.
Patients will do what the lard recommended and show up at work so they can get paid.
Meanwhile, the virus will be overtaking with exponential growth until more drastic measures are implemented.
Washing hands for 20 seconds and not touching your face will still not protect too well.
