She has had a horrible few years because of Trump plus she recently lost her mother. Send her your positive vibes. She is in need of them.

I’d assume that’d be pretty big news. Are you thinking her sister who recently died?

testing kits.

How long from whatever they do or take to start the test, does it take to get results?

How does that compare to flu testing?

Horrible stories today in suburbs of Detroit. Southfield area Hospital out of PPE, last ventilator used. ER flooding with more patients-

if they are breathing ok- they are sent home. Those not breathing ok are being triaged to determine which to try and save.

Cases just started shooting up in the last two days in the ER’s. God help is all!

Testing still not possible many places- and some being tested are dying before results are even known.
