However, tRump seems to think that hydroxychloroquinone is preventative, so could he be taking it? He’s pushed it enough as a preventative. Even though the fda said don’t do it When does tRump listen to anything from someone smarter than he? |

Maybe Trump infected the Valet. Given Trump's already been exposed to the virus he is likely on some preventive drugs and likely so is Pence. It would explain why they act as if they are OK and in no danger. there are no preventative drugs, ttbomk. there are multiple clinical trial going on and I wouldn't be surprised if some were initial thought to be promising? not that we would have the insider scoop.... |

There are no drugs that work. None. Lots of trials for acute treatmen, but none for prevention to my knowledge |

Reckon he'll self-quarantine? I'm mean, yanno, he was chosen by God so is there even a need? I can't help but wonder if the valet infected anyone else in the West Wing and whether they'd be required to self-quarantine. And if trump does get it, will we even be told? According to reports they did extensive testing on all who valet came in contact with...supposedly the over all anti virus doings in the White House is poor...Some wear masks, others don't...some who enter oval office do, others don't..still work in close quarters...Anyone remember TV series West Wing...everyone was on top of each other..  ===================== news.yahoo.com/at-the-white-house-social-distancing-is-optional-172246281.html |

I am not pissed they get tested, it makes sense given they have to protect the chain of command. What pisses me off is they have that privilege and then flagrantly disregard the rules. Like not wearing masks or flying to NYC (with all their SS people in tow not by choice) to have a catered Passover celebration.Meanwhile there is someone who has to go work at a meat packing plant because American's can't be bothered to change their diet who would otherwise be staying at home and following the rules who can't get tested. THAT is what pisses me off. Not the testing but the sheer amount of rich person privilege they are rubbing in our faces. “Let them eat cake” |

I’m curious if he did actually get cv19 if that would change his attitude towards this disease at all. Narcissists usually don’t care about things until it impacts them directly.
It’d be funny if he did a 180 and suddenly sank all the government resources behind this disaster. We’d all get whiplash. The trumpetttes would melt down. MAGA

On the other hand, I had an uncle who was a drunken ne'er-do-well, so there might be something to Trump's claim.  |

Now they are saying the Valet was in Trump's office on Tuesday. Good thing the media keeps track of trumps comments and tweets, cuz trump can't remember what he said 5 minutes ago. And her husband Steve Miller is in trumps cabinet/WH

With 15% false negatives, I'm not sure it will be super helpful. Especially because it will take us a couple of years to test everyone once. Not to mention that all those conspiracy theory weirdos will convince a shit ton of people that testing is an evil plot to do something. I can't even make anything up that will be more outlandish compared to what they will come up with. |

I can't even make anything up that will be more outlandish compared to what they will come up with. you can drive that down to 2% by retesting.
again- we get there by testing. period. there is no other way out of this.
