What if it is all a LIE?

What if the White House Lied and No ONE really tested POSITVIE for COVIDS?
No illness just reports of positives...Gee, this really takes on the news cycle with now, tRump in a Rose Garden lie fest as I type...I will believe it when we have folks on a ventilator.

He is making this a center piece story tool...just as if it was a TV script.

What say you folks...?

Oh, never heard anything about Ron Paul's positive...none of them hospitalized, just claiming self quarantined.

It is suspicious..

1. I am sort of shocked by how they all claim to be "asymptomatic"-

That seems unlikely.
Rand Paul was reportedly quite sick.
But the rest of the GOP people infected seem like they all want to pretend it's just a TEST SCORE. Nothing to do with being sick or dry coughs or fevers or being separated from their babies or anything bad.

14. They might be faking it, so that later they can claim they "recovered" and thus so can everyone else

... in an attempt to downplay/diminish the deadly nature of the virus.

9. They were just exposed only a few days ago

It takes up to 2 weeks for the symptoms to show up. So a lot of people are scared right now. Not only the White House employees themselves but what about their families, friends, servants, etc. Everybody they've come in contact with are potentially exposed to the virus.

It doesn't mean they will all develop symptoms, but I'm betting several will become sick. Some will be very sick. It's not a plot - this is happening throughout the USA.

Sorry...but I remain suspicious with anything this crime family dishes out to us...just saying...

19. Why would you make such a rude comment?

That is soooo inappropriate.

Yes DUmmies,  the white house lied so you could get a circle jerk going as you fantasized about all the things pelosi is going to do when she becomes President aftet President Trump and Vice President Pence are laid up on ventilators.

It was quite entertaining.

[DumbAss Tanker]

Most of the people who end up positive are not going to have major symptoms, many none at all.  The unfortunate few will be acute cases and some of those will die.

What about the people in that one meat plant?  Weren't there like 400 of them who were ALL asymptomatic? 

And the DUmmies continue with their fear.  They are absolutely certain that if you get this virus you WILL die, and there's nothing you can do to stop it.  I'm guessing the DUmmies think the numbers are backwards.  99% mortality, 1% recovery.

It's Capricorn One! Because Rs are like vampires: vampires have no reflection in mirrors; Rs are immune to all viruses.

More seriously, if as many American people hate Trump as DU-folk imagine, faking being coronavirus-positive would cause the Haters to rejoice, not be sympathetic.

Yes Rand was because, get this, he had half a lung removed from that crazy progressive democrat (but I repeat myself) that blindsided him.  Another true hateful leftist that received a very small punishment for breaking the law.

I blame the press for this when they report daily how many new people have tested positive, how many people total have tested positive, how many new deaths for the day, how many total deaths but rarely if ever how many people who have tested positive have recovered and are back to a normal life.

I honestly think far more people have already had this than previously thought and as we open up we'll find the infection rate does not skyrocket as predicted because a lot of people will have immunity.

I think I had it in December, but no way to be for sure until the antibody test is more available.  Either way, I refuse to live in fear.  If I'm susceptible, I will get it.  If I'm susceptible to it killing me, that too will happen, and there's not much anyone can do in either case.

Do you not realize that those were 400 false positives so that trump could shut down the meat plant and raise the price of meat for his family to profit. And then, he made himself look presidential and all by forcing those same 400 now real positive souls back to work using DPA. Trump wins both ways. It gives me a  sad.




or words to that affect is how they would reply.

But with a lot of swearing and poor grammar.

I feel the same way since I had something bad at the tail end of December and specifically remember telling the wife that it is good I was retired from Disneyland because I would not have been able to run the New Years Eve fireworks that year if I was still working there because of how sick I was.

Shortly after that I noticed what felt like an obstruction in my throat that was more annoying than painful so i let it slide for a few weeks.  In early Feb I finally went to see my doctor at Kaiser who thought it might be acid reflux but sent me to an ear, nose and throat specialist.  They did a preliminary exam and said the best way to figure out what is going on was to do an endoscopy and take samples for biopsy.  The results were no cancer noted but enlarged tonsil tissue.  When I told the doctor my tonsils were removed 50 years ago so why am I getting enlarged tissues now he said that sometimes a cold or some types of virus can cause that condition. 

I'm curious to get an antibody test to see if I had the virus and if it was what caused the problems in my throat, but I'm not living in constant fear of catching it and trying to live as normal a life as the governor of my state will allow.

Yeah, I understand what you're saying about not being able to work.  I actually went to the doc twice in 2 weeks and I don't do that.  The day I was leaving work to drive home I'd been sick for 3 days and just the 2 hour drive to get home ... I didn't think I was going to make it.  Not as in 'die', but more like, I didn't have the strength.  I was diagnosed with an unidentified upper respiratory infection.  2 weeks before that my wife was diagnosed with pneumonia.  2 weeks before her diagnosis we were on a cruise ...
