They REFUSED to test me in Wisconsin.
I almost died from whatever that was that made me lose 15 pounds in 6 days flat.
I was bed ridden for 4 days straight.
Stringer Bell yes, we were tested for antibodies at a cost of 280.00 for the two of us in a lab in Massachusetts.
@Progressive Humanist early in February my husband got very sick with textbook covid symptoms….my daughter came down with fever for few days….I was tired , had the worst muscle pain, just felt run down for weeks…..there were no tests and we were told that this would just go away…now, Im waiting for that antibody test, hoping that what we went through was actually covid 19.
That’s your State at the helm.

Author unknown, but I have to say well said!
“Flattening the curve didn’t mean stop the infection, but spread it out so that the system could handle it. I am seeing so much anxiety about resuming business, and so much anger about continued regulations. People are feeling the need to catapult to one side or the other, then fight the opposition.
Here’s my perspective, from a mainstream medical model. I think a lot of folks have fallen into the idea that social distancing was meant to stop the viral spread. It wasn’t. It was meant to SLOW it while we put medical infrastructure in place. It’s not perfect, but it’s much better than it was seven weeks ago.
A vaccine is a long way off. At some point, people have to be systematically exposed to begin the building of (hopeful) herd immunity. We will likely begin to experience a real increase in cases after reopening. Ideally, that exposure is controlled and calculated, in phases, to allow our medical community to respond adequately, and reduce the number of severe or fatal cases. That’s where we are.
Whether you feel like things will be opening too soon, or not soon enough, we were never going to social distance this thing into nonexistence. You now need to proceed as your health, wallet, and conscience allow.
If you are medically vulnerable, you do not need to be a part of what is about to happen. Stay home if you can. If you’re not, or if your financial vulnerability trumps your health concerns, you need to proceed in ways that continue to protect yourself, and the elderly and medically vulnerable around you.
All of us need to calm down. Quit telling people who are financially struggling that they don’t care about human lives. Quit telling people who are truly at risk of dying from this virus that they are cowering in fear. Remember that until you’ve walked in someone else’s shoes, you should probably be careful in your judgements and subsequent harsh words.
We don’t HAVE to choose an either/or proposition and fight. We could choose other ways to be. Examples include but are not limited to:
“I think this may be too soon, so I will continue to shelter myself, and pray/make masks/ check on those who can’t.”
“I really need to go back to work, so I will do so, but I will be careful and try to protect myself, my family, and those around me with healthy strategies.”
See how those positions allow each of us to do what we need to, and also respect those who are choosing differently?
One thing that allows us to do this is humility. I can acknowledge that I am not an epidemiologist/economist/whatever, that I am making decisions based on my understanding of complex subjects and my own personal health and financial situation, that I am not all knowing, always right, and an expert in all fields, and that each person around me is doing their best too. We can make different choices and still be a supportive community. We can learn and evolve in our understanding of these issues
@anrepa59 I agree. This may not be a hoax but its being used as a vehicle for power.
A very Presidential response. Maybe you can teach our President how to handle this crisis. Thank you.
Well said!!
Dawn Kurbel well said
Wise words. People need to unite and respect each other. I am guilty of choosing a side early on during this mess when I should have been supporting my fellow Americans with wisdom.
Living in the UK I so love watching Trump in his full flow of madness. He makes the clown (Boris) we’ve got as PM look like Churchill by comparison! Makes me feel so much better!
No doubt you supported Jeremy Corbyn, crazy leftist nutter.
So there is a silver lining 😂
I bet…. what a horrible representation of not only the presidency, but the people of what most considered a “great nation” prior to this IDIOT “making America great again!!!! “ 🤦🏽♀️ SMH.
Maybe Mel Brooks could turn it into a musical.
Have fun getting your butter knife taken away for being a weapon. Your whole country is a huge joke
Utterly incapable of rising to the occasion. #dumpTrump
@Christien du Preez What? I never stopped working. Are you confused?
That’s the effect of gravity on the fat turd.
@Ancel Rick They speak and type without thinking. Do you know me personally? Are you sitting outside my front-door? How do you know I haven’t been going to work? Conservitards.
I think you’re in for a shock in November

You mean avoid stupid questions, you are right.
Ana Irene Martinez something similar like that too. Granted!
He’s “testing” my patience.
Keep getting your lies from CNN fake news that’s been proven time and time again rather listening to FOX that has sources and don’t lie daily
too late for that, I have been sticking forks in my eyes for 3 years
@Kyle Bogan Wow! Fox said this is all a hoax. Keep drinking the cool-aid that is Trump flavored. May I ask what is it like living in a cult?
Kyle Bogan if you think fox doesn’t lie you’re missing important screws
Christien du Preez well dear, I’m actually a respiratory therapist at one of the largest hospitals in the Midwest. I’ve been working three 12 hour shifts a week since this all began, so don’t lecture me about work.
The poor baby got a little mad HAHAHA
#1 rule of the Con..”die with the LIE”
And it is one of the only two rules the Trumpet lives by. The other is ‘no one matters but Trump.’

Jake Cahill no
I’m having difficulty finding within my mind a test that I believe the potus could actually pass. Not physical fitness, memory/recall, certainly not an IQ test; imagine failing your own IQ test LMAO, geography, maths. To make it not one sided, here’s a given, breathing, he most likely would pass the last one.
Good luck!
Sharon Taylor
The only intelligent thing you bring to the discussion is attempted insult .
You must be a real deep thinker .
but if our wish comes true and his valet breaths on him. Maybe he would pass the Corona Virus Test as positive. Cuz you know, something happened between the last test and the new test. I support him testing positive for that test!!
@jim harmon orange man has never served anything ,our country especially, bone spurs.. OK
@splatthecat55 trump is anti China, when it suits HIM. Made him and his family rich with cheap clothes and other items. You have been conned
ramona j
And still he is your President.
“Why didn’t Mexico pay for the wall like you promised”
Trump “ask China”
@Ac214 – “Why didn’t Mexico pay…” ??? Thank God the Southern Border Wall is being built to keep ILLEGAL ALIENS, Terrorists and Drugs from getting into America. President Trump’s Agenda to keep America Safe is Working for the benefit of the American People.
gerians I think you are talking about tariffs… if you are in the US you pay the tariffs on Mexican and Chinese goods. For example, when Mexico makes a car, the car company that imports the car pays the tariff to the US government, just like a tax, when the car is imported. That tariff is added to the price of the car when you buy it. When Trump talks about China paying tariffs either a Trump is clueless how tariffs work or he is intentionally lying.
@gerians The irony of a Trump supporter telling others to wake up is hilarious. We get it, you vote Republican… hopefully you will soon wake up and realize he is literally the *worst* candidate for the Republican party. Even Republican congressmen and senators are starting to distance themselves from him.
At best, he’s a loud mouth silver-spoon who lies about even stupid things, like where his father was born (he’s said both Germany & New Jersey, but it’s a known fact he was born in The Bronx). At worst, he’s a thin-skinned, scavenging, fair weather follower that was somehow elected to lead the United States.
I realize what I say is never going to change your mind, but I also realize how unwise it is to listen to someone who will vote for a man that’s proven he CAN NOT LEAD… to lead them.
@jim harmon then why did Trump say it genious if he didn’t believe it. He tried to berates the president of Mexico when he said he wouldn’t build no damn wall. He only said it because he thought he could bully him…..and it didn’t work. I believe it’s you that doesn’t know anything about business. However since things have changed they just may build a wall to keep our infected asses out.
@Reality Lives Onward Always you must mean the fence repair.
Trumps true color is “Yellow”
#FireTrump
Phill Davis who’s the brainwashed one here? The one being called a snowflake or the one that supports a man that encourages us to inject disinfectant into our bloodstream
PRESIDENT TRUMP LIKE BEAUTIFUL WOMEN
You’re right!
an orangish, yellow Arse sounds about right.
@Phill Davis : Is that anything like Obama Derangement Syndrome? That one’s just as pathetic, and apparently once contracted its “victims” are carriers for life. lmaooo
Who did you think Jared meant when he said “Those are for US” ?
dale murray : Indeed, family superstores. Us us us us we US, not you 🇺🇸
He meant the Trump family and Trump sycophants.
Im angry with myself for not voting last election that wont ever happen again this moron has to go
It will be quite funny even when you do vote that Trump still wins..Not a trump fan but he is going to win the election by a landslide & we will all have to deal with it
So you’re voting for the other senile, moron, p*ssy grabber? Got it.
@Jerry Luna 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 Please remember that in November! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
@mimzy1124 Lassiter 🙌🏻 Preach! 💛🙏🏻
OH! OH! So Steven Miller is also qurantined? His wife is positive. Can we all pray?
Fingers crossed 🤞🏾🤞🏾🤞🏾🤞🏾🤞🏾
His wife is COVID-19 positive?
Geez… that’s too bad.
Liberals hoping a jewish person dies. How original
His final ‘test’ will be at the polls. Please vote!
osocat and there it is folks, we got a dude that doesn’t know the difference between a democrat and a communist. Do me a favor, look up the definition of communism, then tell me EXACTLY how ANYTHING about the Democratic Party is communist
Jim Balogna lol idk about anyone else but no anger coming from here. Just an observation. trump is a funny guy. I just believe in 10 years whether it was libs or reps who voted for him they’re going to feel silly and taken advantage of. (If they’re self aware and honest to themselves). It’s a popularity contest. Just like Obama, it’s all about next years prom king.
You all are so married to your tribes 😂
@borederthanu only one tribe here buddy. it’s about being an American or not.
osocat 👍🏽 yessir KAGA MAGA Alex Jones 2024, Melania for vice! Jones-Trump!!! 🥳
“We’re making ourselves look bad. We have prevailed”! Yes, testing too much is prevalent…. NOT! Prevailed meaning “superior and more powerful”… over the virus? Obviously he’s learned a new word that yet again, he doesn’t understand. We have not overcome this virus, and if we have… what the hell is he doing up there projectile spewing every day, about???
What an imbecilic, malignant parasite. MASA.: Make America Safe Again. Take the thug occupying the WH down.
@Máire Walton u didn’t pay attention in the classroom, did u?
As hard as he tries 45 can’t “gaslight” the deaths of 80,000 American people.
It won’t stop him from trying. Lying spinning deflecting fool he is
@Boo Garcia you wake up. It don’t matter. Its here now,and HE STILL CANT HANDLE IT.
@gerians yeah its exhausting tweeting nd watching CNN MSNBC and all the other news he calls,fake. Then eat, and demean everyone who disagrees with you. Oh , and the crying and whining prob takes up some time too. 15 or 16 hours days…. Still need to add,GOLFING
@D W : No one capable of reason can possibly be that dumb. So I guess trolls be trollin’.
@D W : Where, exactly, did you obtain your education?
“Anybody that needs a test gets a test; they’re there, they have the tests, and the tests are beautiful,””The tests are all perfect, like the letter was perfect, the transcription was perfect, right?”<<
You want to be tested? Go to the foctor, see if he gives journey a referral without any symptoms, or go on your own and start yelling and screaming. I don’t want to be tested, I have no fever, no cough, sleep like a baby. REPEAT: I DON’T WANT TO BE TESTED. I DON’T WANT TO BE TRACKED OR TRACED OR GO INTO A F-U DATABASE.
Not only does he sound ridiculous when speaking, he looks ridiculous all the time
@splatthecat55 I’m from New York, Yes it is a toilet for the most part but one thing is true here , anyone who wants a test does get a test. The news stations are begging people to get tested even if you have no reason to. I fortunately live in a part of the state not hit as bad as the city though.
@Rex S : You do know, right, that having your temperature taken doesn’t count…
“Winning” doesn’t mean highest number of death
