"Older Voters " like it's a dirty word

Maybe it’s time to listen to the people who have years of accumulated memory and wisdom.

Baby Boomers took to the streets against Vietnam

They remember life when there was dignity in our leaders and traditions,

They knew and acted when there was a bad President - Nixon

Perhaps in this crazy time with this horror in office, we should listen when they say we need the antithesis of trump as
our leader. Coupled with a youthful, energetic and optimistic VP! (Just like one of their grandkids)

The medical world should name the specific nausea

one gets when they see trump and hear him speak. It's truly a real thing.

Anyone travel a lot by air in February?

Reading up on the botched evacuation of Wuhan and the hearing about what the whistleblower said about health care escorts traveling freely and unprotected on commercial flights to their home bases.

The US, like many other countries, is evacuating its citizens from Wuhan. The US is quarantining people who arrive in from Wuhan at military bases for 14 days after their arrival. Passengers who arrive on commercial flights from China are being rerouted to certain US airports, where they may face quarantine.Feb 6, 2020


Haven't been able to find a list of the airports they are referring to.

I flew between Dallas and Hartford and Hartford and Chicago and Chicago and Dallas all during this period of time.

I know, chances of infection minute, but still brings me pause to think it's all so secretive and loose. And many evacuees and escorts weren't even tested.

Wisconsin appeals court overturns order to purge more than 200,000 voters from rolls
A Wisconsin court of appeals handed Democrats a win on Friday by overturning a ruling that sought to purge up to 209,000 people from voter registration rolls.

The ruling gives a boost to Democrats in a state that's poised to play a decisive role in the 2020 presidential race. President Trump won Wisconsin by fewer than 23,000 votes in 2016.

Reuters: Evidence of coronavirus reinfection.

Explainer: Coronavirus reappears in discharged patients, raising questions in containment fight
David Stanway, Kate Kelland
SHANGHAI/LONDON (Reuters) - A growing number of discharged coronavirus patients in China and elsewhere are testing positive after recovering, sometimes weeks after being allowed to leave the hospital, which could make the epidemic harder to eradicate.
On Wednesday, the Osaka prefectural government in Japan said a woman working as a tour-bus guide had tested positive for the coronavirus for a second time. This followed reports in China that discharged patients throughout the country were testing positive after their release from the hospital.

An official at China’s National Health Commission said on Friday that such patients have not been found to be infectious.

Experts say there are several ways discharged patients could fall ill with the virus again. Convalescing patients might not build up enough antibodies to develop immunity to SARS-CoV-2, and are being infected again. The virus also could be “biphasic”, meaning it lies dormant before creating new symptoms.

But some of the first cases of “reinfection” in China have been attributed to testing discrepancies.
