1. I am announcing that I, along with 3 of my senior staff, are officially under self-quarantine after sustained contact at CPAC with a person who has since been hospitalized with the Wuhan Virus. My office will be closed for the week.

Who attended the conference that is positive? The man from Nigeria that stayed over night in DC?


No, the CPAC guy was diagnosed in New Jersey and is hospitalized there.


Curious about who he is, since he apparently met Ted Cruz as well as the cpac chair (Matt schlapp) - is it easy to access such people at this conference?


His name floats around Twitter but people say "he's a rich donor who could sick 100 lawyers on any media outlet that publishes his name".


Maybe Trump Jr will post his name on Twitter.


Or perhaps Chief Justice Roberts could refuse to read his name out loud, thus confirming it without a doubt.

You are sick. You might have COVID. Make the personal decision not to spread it. Call if your symptoms worsen and arrange to be seen in a safe way.

If YOU choose to self-isolate because you are sick, you won't spread it to others. You will limit the spread.

Remember the slogan "only YOU can prevent forest fires?"

THAT!


Aren't you contagious before you have symptoms?


The CDC says that's really not true. That maybe a day or two prior with low level symptoms. Idiots here are saying "two weeks without symptoms" "a month without symptoms" Does that even seem logical to you?


There have been a FEW cases of this, but for the case in Germany where this was originally suspected, they went back and discovered the patient wasn't really asymptomatic. The virus is PRIMARILY spread through droplets, so logically, you would be spreading by sneezing, coughing, etc. which would occur at a much higher frequency with symptoms like coughing.

The failure of not having the approved N95 masks made by 3M for the public is an outrage. They were approved for exactly what is happening with the coronavirus. They have been sold out for months. Either they were produced overseas and were confiscated by other countries or the elite here have confiscated them months ago. So instead the public is told they are useless. Not true. They were approved so people who do venture out have less chance of exposure. The fact that the average citizen can?t get them is such a failure. Instead we are don?t well they don?t work at all just wash your hands. Just lies. Also the fact we have not been able to get tested if we want to is a failure. No masks, No tests, no Purell. Failure, Failure, Failure. These are three small things the government should have had readily available for the citizens of this country a month ago. I think the government has decided that the amount of deaths is not worth the cost to save them. This is the USA and we are always told how great we are but to not even have these things ready for citizens is a failure!!

I believe this may be a hoax.


Why?


The man's Twitter feed looks legit to me. He's a cardiologist at Maimonides hospital in Brooklyn and up till about a week ago he had nothing about coronavirus.

Doctors and nurses, medical professionals are the true heros during times like this. A huge kiss to you all!


As a nurse working at a hospital in Seattle right now I thank you.

No, not at all, unless they have a meet and greet.
