Better stock up on those anti-malarials...

"Sorry Americans, we're going to have to ask you to keep two ideas in your head at the same time: This has nothing to do with Asian Americans and it has everything to do with China," Maher concluded. "We can't afford the luxury anymore of non-judginess towards a country with habits that kill millions of people everywhere. Because this isn't the first time. SARS came from China. And the bird flu. And the Hong Kong flu. The Asian flu. Viruses come from China just like shortstops come from the Dominican Republic. If they were selling nuclear suitcases at these wet markets, would we be so non-judgmental?"
"Scientists, who are generally pretty liberal, have been naming diseases after the places they came from for a very long time,” Maher said Friday night while broadcasting his weekly show from his home in California.

“Zika is from the Zika Forest. Ebola from the Ebola River. Hantavirus, the Hantan River. There’s the West Nile Virus and Guinea worm and Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, and of course the Spanish flu.”
“MERS stands for Middle Eastern Respiratory Syndrome,” the host continued. “It’s plastered all over airports and no one blogs about it. So, why should China get a pass?

Actually no, I'm not. As far Trump is concerned the voters can have their say in November regarding his actions and/or inactions in all of this...

Maybe if we give just one more tax cut to billionaires this will all end?

And all the while, his intell services were warning of a catastrophe. Must have been those metrics in his head...

No, I would rather not die but I believe taking something based upon dubious claims that aren't substantiated makes a heckuva a lot of sense...

It is a very simple question, yes or no please.  

And no, they aren't dubious claims. There is evidence that the drugs work.  I can show you a Democrat lawmaker in Michigan who told the WORLD that she would be DEAD if she had not taken HCQ.  

That's not dubious.  That is a fact.  She even said Donald Trump made it possible for her to receive the drugs and she credited his push for saving her life. 

So I'll ask again, using the caveat of my first sentence above, would you take HCQ, yes or no?

Reading comprehension brain farct again?

The Times also describes how Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar had been briefing the President on the issue.
Azar "briefed him about the potential seriousness of the virus" during a January 18 phone call. A few days later, in what appeared to be his first comments about the virus to the press, Trump told a reporter at Davos, "We have it totally under control. It's one person coming in from China, and we have it under control. It's -- going to be just fine."
On another call on January 30, Azar warned Trump of the possibility of a pandemic. Trump reportedly responded by saying Azar was being alarmist.
On the January 30 call, Azar "was blunt, warning that the virus could develop into a pandemic and arguing that China should be criticized for failing to be transparent."
But Trump rejected the idea of criticizing China.
