    My old next door neighbor s sister just passed away from this.  Ugh
    How did she contract it?  Was she overseas or did she pick it up in the states?  What type of treatment did she get?


    She was in contact with the first person who died.  Not sure how either were exposed.

    Looks like Trump and Pence are finally getting real, and properly conveying info as advised by experts. This is the first US presser I have seen in over 3 years that actually seems reasonable.... aside from the little religious plug.

    Is this a joke?

    He came out, bragged that he had a conference call with major CEO's, declared victory about the Fed slashing rates, bitched about fake news, and stormed off like a spoiled 5 year old child upset his mommy wouldn't let him have a chocolate bar.

    Do you even remember what it was like when we had a real leader and POTUS in charge?

    i am watching too. i missed trump speak, but i kind of figured i knew what he was going to say. pence seems way more presidential, but i still do not believe much of what he says. he is a fucking slimeball too.

    We do not have a POTUS right now.

    We have a spoiled narcissist dick that really doesn't wanna have to be bothered by all this and is only concerned about how much it will impact his reelection.

    I expect him to stand up there for the entire goddamn press conference and answer questions like an actual fucking president would.

    How dare I ask so much of Dear Leader?!?

    i agree. it is a very bad optic that he is not on that stage right now.

    Nyc schools shut down until April 20th. all businesses have to go to 50%  occupancy. Calling it a wartime approach.  Wow

    He's done the same thing at every one of these.

    Comes out.  Talks about how beautiful everything is and what a great job he's doing, and walks off.

    It's who he is.

    How low is the bar for some people?  He came out, claimed victory over Fed rates and how fantastic everything is going and walked off without taking a single question.

    Seriously, have some of you people completely forgotten what an actual president is supposed to do during the time of a national crisis?

    Incredible....honestly incredible.  The bar cannot possibly be any lower.

    damn man that is awful. sorry to hear about that.

    sudden cardiac death doesn't typically just happen. She had to have had an underlying predisposition that nobody knew about. i am interested to see what the autopsy concludes.
    Yes she could very well have had un-diagnosed heart disease or something, especially in the late 50's.

    There is no bar low enough or distraction too easy to use to keep blinding yourself to the fact that you apparently continue to support a complete imbecile, even during a national emergency.

    We just got word that California's governor Newsom is asking everyone over 65 years of age here to stay home.  No problem governor, no problem at all!  I am SO relieved.  Working in the bookstore- even my shortened hours- has been nerve wracking and C., being an owner, has been there even more.  She was actually glad to get the news.  Now we can stay home and be a lot safer.  We did have to work part of the day and I had to do one last trip to the grocery store today, so I will feel even better in 4 or 5 days if no symptoms show up.  Then I will really be able to breathe easier. 

    I hope you're all doing well out there.

    That's great!  Well, considering the situation that is...

    I got the go ahead to work from home for awhile which is a relief.  Kids are off until April 20th at a minimum.  My 6 year old son (turns 7 next week) has asthma which makes me nervous.  My in-laws and step dad are also uniquely vulnerable.
