    Dr. Fauci said it clearly did greatly help the situation, part of South Korea's problem is they didn't take the same action.

    If the death rate is really 1% which it may be since many are infected we don't know about it is a much smaller number. If some of the drug treatments they're talking about can cut that death rate by say, two thirds, all the better. Even in China if you believe them way under 1% of the population has the virus so 100% of the global population is truly a worst case scenario.

    You're right, there's nothing to worry about. Why don't you take your family out? Maybe take a nice vacation to Spain. You'd probably get an awesome deal.

    As seen in the battle for toilet rolls. The civilised veneer peels off and it’s the law of the jungle!

    We've got to understand that we may be in for a very long haul. I just hope this COVAD 19 doesn't last as long as the Spanish Flu in 1918 did but We all might have to plan on it. But I don't see it getting better anytime soon. Perhaps We'll see what happens two months from now to see if anything changes and hope that it gets better from there. We have to keep away from each other at this time. It might be the same 60 days from now, Who knows what will happen. It remains to be seen.

    Rand Paul has tested positive. He was at the gym and swimming in a pool yesterday morning. He has also been at Senate lunches where they all sit close to each other.

    He thought he might be infected so he requested a test. And before getting the results went around exposing people all around him, including other Senators, Great job there Senator!

    And WHY is the Senate pool open?

    In Italy, the number of people who have recovered is precisely the same as the number who have died.

    Plácido Domingo has tested positive.

    It sounds like all of the Republican Senators who attended that lunch or have had contact with Rand Paul, need to self quarantine.

    Coming soon: Long lines with people requesting food stamps, filing for unemployment, and waiting for food from missions and soup kitchens.

    They can suspend all rents due etc. But people who now have no income still need to eat. That $1000 check will last a couple of weeks at best.

    Uh oh, and there is NO remote voting in the Senate. In order to get things done during this crisis, the Senate may just have to concede control to the Democrats.

    Doesn’t seem to be any mention of whether or not they can pay for the treatment?

    Amen.

    And, once this is over, those with no jobs will have months of back rent due.

    So if House Dems get the virus do they cede control to the GOP?

    Senators including Romney are saying that Rand Paul has been exercising in the Senate facility along with many other senators and has been eating lunch, etc. with groups of senators as well.

    BTW - how did Rand Paul get a test when he isn't symptomatic?

    I think we all appreciate what the truth is. This virus is unprecedented and without the typical guards we normally have. While 24/7 reporting is necessary, I do think this guy loves limelight that he otherwise would never have had. There are other doctors to get information from as well.

    He's the director of the National Institute of Alergies and Infectious Diseases with a few decades of technical experience.

    He's shown a willingness to call Trump on false statements.
