Full NBA teams have already been tested for the coronavirus. The Brooklyn Nets paid a private company to get the tests and learned four players were positive. Politicians are getting tested and finding swift results. Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah, wasand got his negative results back the next day. Vice President Mike Pence and his wife were tested and seemingly received their negative results within hours.

Dr. Haig Aintablian, president of the American Academy of Emergency Medicine Resident and Student Association, said up to 100 ER residents are in quarantine nationwide and the main two factors are lack of rapid testing and lack of personal protection. Dr. Purvi Parikh, an immunologist in Manhattan, works in a clinic treating patients with allergies, asthma and immune deficiencies – a population that’s at a higher risk to contract COVID-19.

Eating/handling exotic animal may caused epidemic/pandemic in recent years (Ebola, SARS, AIDS, COVID, etc.). WHO should force all countries to restrict eating exotic animals. USA & WTO should impose sanctions on countries that allow open trade of exotic animals.

Important! I have an idea & am not sure where to reach out! Fumigation of Hospital Rooms, Cruise ships & Homes infected by COVID-19 the same way Exterminators& Consumers FOG for insects! An immediate coat of 99.9% germ killer everywhere! Make a Lysol fogger similar to a Raid one.

By not speaking truth to power Fox News is killing people. 😷🆘

America meeds to step off its high horse, set aside political bs redtape laws&get💩done! 4fs wont even let the dying have their last rights! I'd almost bet that the assholes that ban smoking in most their hospitals don't even have a property functioning air vent system anymore!
