LIARS! I work in an American Hospital that still doesn't even have testing kits yet!

We used to speak this lightheartedly about the virus in Italy too. Now that the whole country is on a lockdown, we understood that this can be defeated only with everybody's cooperation. This includes young, elderly, healthy and sick individuals. Jokes like the one referred to cruising are out of place.

Inept confused unable unqualified untrustworthy .. less than useless, actually dangerous , frightening

They're both so weird looking. Trump looks like he just ate a bag of cheetos & the vice prez guy looks like he holding down 👇 a bag of marshmallows

Like a live view of Beeves and Buthead. China built two hospitals in one week and we don't have test for over two weeks.

When the high risk homeless get sick, you can't tell them to just go home and isolate.

First let me say that I am so appreciative of my Governor in MD. Governor Hogan made sure that anyone that is tested for the virus is cost free. I know that I can't afford a $3, 000.00 bill. Especially during this time when their is a need to get whatever staples that I can afford on a limited income. We are a community. A family. We are communities that bridge states. We are a country that needs to be one during this time. Look after each other and just stay as still as you possibly can for a number of weeks. Let us all sacrifice a few events in our lives in order to help the world against this virus. We need to make a major catch up on the tests, making of masks, time to develop the medicine to help ease us through this crisis, etc... And to rebuild our industries again. We can make lemonaide out of this if we choose to. Let us reach out to our entrepreneurs and investors. They will be willing to take a chance. Even during these crazy times in the economy.

It's too late, they know this they are just hoping you don't.

Hard to believe anything this vp says. All he seems to want to do is compliment the orange wonder.

The scary part of coronavirus is not mortality rate, people might self cure if their health condition is good. the scary part is coronavirus spread extremely fast and when the number of positive patients increase extremely fast in a short time period, that is when the medical system such as hospital, care center collapses.

I am one of those high risk groups that Trump wants to stay on the ship to die and rot so I don’t make him look bad, every one of his inconvenient
“ numbers “ are Americans and deserve better . Thank you for your compassion Mr Trump I will remember your kind gesture in November.

So private companies are going to make tests to purchase.well good thing everyone in usa has it now, it will be very profitable.

[iambear]

You've had months, you were unprepared and are responsible.

[RudeReaper]

Italy- quarantine eveything. "
Usa-"wash your hands. "

[taradrolma]

They should all be reporting the number of tests thru CDC. Why can't we do this when S. Korea can test 10, 00 plus per day and keep accurate data. Pathetic.

[mulanfa]

Did he just say to go on a cruise ship @3:48!

[ronaldkarp]

somebody coughed at 0:23 - sounded like a dry cough ~ LOL

[oranjmusemeyer]

Obviously we are keeping Trump from his nap again!

Were more prepared for a improbable nuclear war than we are a global pandemic
