If you watch the video, it's not as bad as the headline sounds, but it's still fun to think of Trump as a clueless idiot.
Trump pays that person who said "probably not" tho
Not for much longer

yes based on 'reported' cases

the thing is there are probably a million unreported mild cases at this point

Im in a hospital (not for a corona check). Been hearing a lot of talk in the lobby. Seems like everyone and their Lhasa Apsos are here thinking they have the corona virus.
I pledge to be 100% boring and never troll-out again. I will make my interactions here pleasant, like sitting through an agricultural economics class.

Agreed, and many deaths that are just listed with pnemonia as the cause. There will be an amazing documentary about this in 10 years.

I went to the supermarket yesterday and there were a few shelves looking a bit bare. The worst hit was the toilet paper area. Does this thing give you the shits?

It’s the supply chain. If drivers are affected and store staff then shops may not open or have stock.

Have there been reports of homeless people getting infected? Seems like a particular vulnerable group to this (everything, really)

So I finally got called back. Asked a battery of questions.
They sent an ambulance n brought into an isolated unit. A whole battery of questions off a nurse. And then a whole lot more by a doctor. They’re keeping me in 48-72 hours to run tests and get samples n stuff. Irony being I feel much better than yesterday and especially much better than the weekend but here we are.

Our very own dime about to turn Ireland red on the worldwide freak-out map!

Hope you’re doing OK though and glad to hear things are on the mend.
