Atlanta's mayor, Keisha Lance Bottoms, has tested positive for coronavirus, she announced Monday afternoon. Bottoms, 50, said she has not experienced any symptoms of the virus.

COVID-19 has literally hit home. I have had NO symptoms and have tested positive," she tweeted Monday.

Bottoms, in an appearance on MSNBC, said the positive test result was a "shock" and she thought to get tested because her husband had been sleeping more than usual.

"It leaves me for a loss of words because I think it really speaks to how contagious this virus is. We've taken all the precautions that you can possibly take. I have no idea when and where we were exposed," she said.

1. this virus is incredibly perverse

infecting good people who take all precautions and sparing the worst among us

2. By "worst among us" I take it to mean Dump? IMO there's no way he hasn't had COVID yet.

Being the germophobe he is and caring as little for others as he does, it explains why he's so cavalier about it.

I'm actually kind of shocked he hasn't used it to his advantage. "See, look at me, I had it and no symptoms! It will probably be like that for 99% of people!". He actually said the 2nd part already, just last weekend.

Might explain why he was taking hydroxychloroquine too. (That or he was trying to drive up stockpiles because he's invested in it.)

3. Him and a lot of GOP pols A-holes who go around treating COVID like it's no big deal

But as far as Trump, as POTUS, he may have gotten some sort of treatment to keep him from getting it, maybe anti-sera injections
