    I know Trump is a fumblebum when it comes to making announcements like this, but this stupid game of "gotcha" that the media are playing isn't helping anything.

    It would probably be best if the media didn't show up at his press conferences on this subject. Don't televise them, don't report on them. Don't acknowledge in any way that they happened or what was said.

    Why is Trump saying he has effective medication that can treat the Coronavirus now when it's not true?

    Why are people paying any attention to anything Trump says when they will find fault with it no matter what?

    'It's coming!' GMA reporter on lockdown in Rome says America needs to brace for the speed of the devastation the deadly coronavirus wreaks as the Italian army moves bodies that are 'piling up'
    • 'It's coming – it's coming. It's amazing how fast this happened to us' he warned
    • ABC reporter Clark Bentson was at an Italian ski resort in February 'joking about a few cases of coronavirus that had happened'
    • Now for the last two or three weeks people have been locked into their homes
    • 'It was a gut punch seeing that video out of Bergamo today with the army coming in and having to move the bodies because they're piling up' he said
    • Confirmed infections in the US surpassed 10,000 on Thursday and deaths were more than 150

    This hospital in Los Angeles knows their surgeon has tested positive since last night. Let's see how long it takes for the word to get out. Like I said, they were almost dismissive about the whole situation. And this is a major hospital/health system.

    Its going to get bad because everyone is trying to cover their own ass. Its a total systemic failure. From the top to the bottom on every level. Administrative red tape, coupled with people who don't know what to do.

    No one expects hospitals to announce that their employees don't have the virus, why should they do it when their employees do have it?

    The actual information that was supposed to be imparted was significant. The media just need to run it through their Universal Translator under the "Imbecile to English" algorithm and it would be helpful and somewhat hopeful. Instead they played their usual, "Hey look, the President's an idiot" game, which is pretty tired and useless.

    About 5-6 years ago, I volunteered to test a new drug. The entire process, from screening, testing period, and follow up took about 14 months.

    Once a month I had to go to Tigard for an exam, blood tests, and they even took pictures.

    The new drug did little for the non-life threatening condition I had. Not sure if I was given a plasibo, or, the drug was not as affective in my old age group? I was told it had worked well in younger patients.

    At the final follow up, they gave me a prescription for a med that did take care of the problem. So all ended well. But they spent a ton of time and big money doing the tests.

    Louisiana pastor defies state ban on mass gatherings and holds service for 300 people telling worshippers that coronavirus is 'politically motivated'
    • Reverend Tony Spell, of Baton Rouge, is still holding services despite pandemic
    • He said 300 people attended Tuesday, after a 1,000-person service on Sunday
    • Coronavirus 'is not a concern' and is 'politically motivated', he told parishioners
    • That is despite Louisiana's governor banning gatherings of 50 people or more
