They. Just. Don't. Get. It. No wonder they're infinitely untrustworthy

Why is THIS not happening nationwide??

Wait! Jared's brother runs Oscar (Google co. to develop Coronavirus database invested in it)

https://twitter.com/WendySiegelman/status/1238863589588512769
The flowchart shown yesterday afternoon of the 'Google' website is very similar to info released in an Oscar press release from yesterday afternoon HT @DemopJ

As @davidgura noted Google sister company Verily has invested in Oscar, co-founded by Jared Kushner's brother Josh



This is Oscar:

More succinctly said:

1. Trump denied the available WHO coronavirus test kit.
2. The 12-week delay cost American lives.
3. After this delay, Oscar Health launches its testing center locator.
4. Oscar Health is a Kushner company.

Investigate the shit out of this mobster family. Benghazi style, please.

Just had a very sobering thought re: long-term ramifications on hospitals and health insurers

With the impending hospitalization of thousands upon thousands of people for multiple weeks at a time, what will be the ramifications on health insurers who’ll have massive outlays to cover the insured?

And the hospitals who’ll eat a lot of cost of patients withOUT insurance?

"Breaking Bad Virus"

I love how people are sharing ingredients for hand sanitizer, but only my gay friends add scented oil for fragrance *optional. Make a show called "Breaking Bad Virus" about a bunch of guys, wearing designer lab coats in a decorated RV making hand sanitizer for the black market.
