So far the research so that Covid is airborne and can travel through aerosol droplets, especially when people are yelling or talking loudly..... as was Trump on Tuesday.


If trump tested negative Tuesday before the debate, he wouldn't have enough viral load to infect anyone at that time, right?


Hopefully, but do you believe he lets people test him every day?

If Hope Hicks started having symptoms on Sept 30th, she was probably infected 10 days earlier, around Sept 20th.

Where was she around Sept 20th, and since that date?

Were there any indoor rallies?

Well if he is lying I hope they are found out, now . To lie about a virus that has killed thousands of Americans would be too low even for Trump.

They only have mild symptoms but it can get bad quickly. I had it back in March and I think the doctor said days 7-9 of symptoms were the critical period. I had really mild symptoms until about 6 days in and almost had to go to the ER. And I'm a healthy 30 year old.

I would guess he would have been tested before going out for the debate.

Nope, there is no bottom with Trump. Evangelicals who support him know this, and that's why they have a bottomless pit of mulligans for him.

I hate to admit you are right. I also admit I had the fleeting thought that his tweet was a joke,

Side note — the fact that we don’t contact tracing set up in aggregate with big data is utterly ridiculous.

Is this a good time for us as a nation to inform the Baby Boom generation they are not as young as they think they are. Perhaps 70 should be the cutoff age for holding political office.

Only death will stop them from running, but in the meantime, we've all been reminded of the importance of the VPs, who will debate next week. At the very least, the VP debate will be much more civil.


It’ll probably be cancelled. For continuity of governance reasons they can’t be in the same room together.


Interesting, but why? Why can't Harris and Pence be in the same room together? Harris is a US Senator. Pence is next in line. If Harris is negative for covid19, why can't she be in the same room as Pence?

I'd think they'd have a lot of ventilation/air filtration in the debate room also.


Exactly, they'll be at least six feet apart and it will be well ventilated. If the want to be extra safe, they can make it 20 feet apart. Also Pence is 61 with no comorbidities, which means his risk is still well on the low side compared to Trump.


They should just do a debate on Zoom. There is no reason in this day and age why they need to be physically together to discuss anything.

Nancy wears a mask

Folks, they are masks. Not forcefields! Masks are not 100% effective...especially not with close, extended, indoor contact.


Already addressed but they have special NDA masks

None of the outcome will come out the way most people want.
If he gets very sick, that is a big problem. US may have to settle with Pence as the temporary president. Worse, the election gets postponed and he stays in office for 1 more year. If he gets better fast, good for him but he'll just use that as no big deal virus. But, everyone else he infected may not have the same outcome.

Very historical year in every way.
I'm a normal person but i do not wish him to get very bad with the virus, or anyone, but knowing him, he'll use it any way possible to gain politically and sympathy votes.

The current strain seems very mild. 1000s of kids at Notre Dame tested positive, none of them even showed symptoms, did they?


There are multiple strains. And 18, 19, and 20 year olds are in a different physical place than overweight 70 year olds.


The death rate seems basically non-existent lately, too.


Wrong again.


Is 1000 people dying every day non existent?


Yes. To a lot of the rot, this horror does not exist in their alternate reality. They don’t care.

Mark Meadows confirmed that Trump knew Hope Hicks was positive before he left for New Jersey yesterday. That's criminally negligent behavior and if someone in NJ got it from him, they should sue him.
