I have NO doubt that there will be many more covid spread announcements coming, this week

From watching the video from that super spreader event, my guess is Barr will be one of the earliest, unless he finds a way to keep it secret.

5. We will know by who disappears from sight. Well, HOPEFULLY they will isolate.

I'm sure some who might test positive but be asymptomatic won't give a damn about anyone else, and just try to carry on.

3. In Barrs case, how can you tell.

He always looks sick and out of breath to me so I think he can get away with having a fever and feeling bad without it being as noticeable as in other people. He might try to keep COVID a secret as long as he isn't hospitalized. Do the AG office do testing everyday? Is it mandatory?

6. Good point. If he would be asymptomatic, we'd never know. He'd probably just carry on spreading it.

If her daughter wasn't 15 and on social media?
I suspect not.

She just wasn't able to get out of that family, in time.

the greatest enemy of this evil administration has always been the truth. The GOP should officially adopt the name the anti-science party or possibly the alternate reality party.

If the Bloomberg reporter hadn’t exposed it. Well-maybe KA because Claudia outed her. This would all have been kept totally under wraps.

10. I agree. Especially given the timing coinciding with her supposedly leaving the administration.

She's probably infected her whole family. Well, maybe not George. I get the feeling he keeps his distance from her.

She’s awful. Seems like Claudia wants to distance herself, too!
