Its an open question whether or not Trump leaves WR today.

I am thinking he is not. They cancelled the press conference after having driven the pool to WR. There are reports Don Jr. thinks his father is acting erratically and needs an intervention ( as an aside, I wonder how he can tell when Trump Sr acts erratically ),Mc Enamy testing positive and we may have Barr as well. Its all falling apart.

its clear trump is in bad shape.

if he was not, they would show videos and pictures of him working from Walter Reed. He would be tweeting bragging how its no big deal and commenting on fox news coverage.

so that update from the white house dr was as expected.

no useful information . Drs in the background who acted as poted plants even thought they are probably more competent than the white house dr.
Evasive answers about whether or not Trump had been on oxygen tripping over when the diagnostic was given.

even the fucking white house dr is not wearing a mask

unlike all the walter reed dr. He should not have to remove his mask to speak. Biden gave a speech masked.

the positive outcome in that massive COVID spread at white house

may be that more trumpers will take that virus seriously and start wearing masks. They have been told for months it was like the flu or even an hoax. Now that their cult leader and entourage have it they may see it . I am not holding high hopes.

come on people, we are not Qanon .

Why are some posting conspiracies theories as if we were them ? Use common sense. Trump has COVID.
Think for a second how many people it would involve to fake that especially when this administration has been known to leak like a sieve.

If Barrett had any integrity she would announce that she withdraws.

its a gigantic mess. Very likely the spread happened at her comfirmation ceremony. Senators cant meet with her in the middle of a pandemic . Several tested positive already. She should spare them that and just bow down.

covid symptoms progression.

Interesting article from Riverside health system here in Virginia.


When COVID-19 symptoms progress from mild to moderate, you’ll know because one or more of the following may occur:

Your fever will be above 100.4 F
You’ll develop a more persistent cough
You’ll experience temporary shortness of breath when you exert yourself – going up the stairs for instance
You’ll feel like you need to stay in bed



So Trump was reported to have cough and Fever he is at that stage.

It can progress to:


Moderate symptoms can progress into severe symptoms suddenly, especially in people who are older or who have chronic medical conditions like heart disease, diabetes, cancer or chronic respiratory problems. There have even been reports of people with mild to moderate symptoms feeling better and then suddenly getting worse and requiring hospitalization.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says if you begin to show severe symptoms of COVID-19 – or what they call emergency warning signs – you should go to the emergency room or call 911 immediately.

Emergency warning signs of the coronavirus include:

Constant trouble breathing
Persistent chest pain or pressure
Confusion
Trouble staying awake
Blue lips or face



Interestingly enough he was reported to be lethargic and that he fell asleep on AF1 which was unusual for him.

I got tested for COVID last friday.

I had a bad cough and other symptoms that could have been COVID. my doc suggested I get tested.

It came out negative yesterday. It was the traditional test with the probe up your nose (its not that bad by the way) and took 3 business days for results to come back.

I am in Virginia and all it took was one phone call to an urgent care place (Velocity ) to book an appointment. My insurance paid all of it. Without insurance its only $153.00. As of today they now offer the 15 minute test without restrictions. Symptons or not.

Hope Hicks has Covid and flew with Trump to the debate.

and then into marine 1. I wonder if she also was one of the idiots in Trump entourage in the debate room. The Trump clique refused to wear masks. Maybe the whole tribe including Trump got infected. We can always hope.
