I've been urging everyone I know to take vitamin D if they don't get much sun, there seems to be a strong correlation between vitamin D deficiency (which a lot of people have, especially people with darker skin in northern climates) and getting really bad coronavirus symptoms.

Yeah the airlift makes it seem more drastic than it might actually be... The virus is so random; it has killed many healthy young people, but not at the same rate as unhealthy old people. The odds aren't with Trump but it's certainly possible he makes it out alive.

Tonight, he and his wife Melania Trump have tested positive for COVID-19.
They are both well and plan to remain in convalescence in the White House.
| That was 18 hours ago. Somthing must have changed since then for him to end up in the hostpital. The first lady is still at the white house. Also he is using experemental drugs. They would not be experementing on the presedent for no reason.

Dr. Sean Conley, the president's physician, says that President Trump received an experimental drug made by Regeneron, which contains two antibodies against the coronavirus. The medicine is currently in clinical trials and isn't approved by the Food and Drug and Administration. How the president's medical team got the medicine wasn't disclosed in the statement. In response to NPR's query, Regeneron declined to comment specifically, citing patient confidentiality. But Regeneron said it can make the drug available outside a clinical trial through a "compassionate use program," subject to the OK of a review committee. The drug, called REGN-COV2, is given as a single dose by injection (an infusion). The president received the high dose being tested by the company – 8 grams.”

Kellyanne Conway announces she tested positive for coronavirus Quote:
CNN)Former White House counselor Kellyanne Conway announced Friday night that she has tested positive for coronavirus, the latest major political figure to say they have Covid-19 after attending a Rose Garden event last Saturday where President Donald Trump announced his Supreme Court pick.
"Tonight I tested positive for COVID-19. My symptoms are mild (light cough) and I'm feeling fine. I have begun a quarantine process in consultation with physicians," Conway tweeted. "As always, my heart is with everyone affected by this global pandemic."
This is a breaking story and will be updated. | They are all getting it. Good thing they all have tax payer funded healthcare.

Seems like a good time to post these two tweets:
4 minutes later:
"Masks are useless"
"Why did I get Corona"
You couldn't write a comedy more funny than these idiots.

another one.
President Donald Trump's campaign manager Bill Stepien has tested positive for coronavirus, according to a senior official, becoming the latest figure in the President's inner circle to be infected with Covid-19.
Stepien received the results of the test on Friday night and is suffering from what the official described as "mild flu-like" symptoms.
Stepien traveled to Cleveland with the President and his team on Tuesday for the first presidential debate and was seen in close proximity to Hope Hicks, the President's top aide who also tested positive.
Stepien was among a group of senior Trump campaign staffers who were tested, but he is the only one whose results came back positive so far. Deputy Campaign Manager Justin Clark's test results were negative.
He also attended debate prep sessions with former White House counselor Kellyanne Conway, who also announced on Friday that she had tested positive.

7 attendees of SCOTUS nomination at Rose Garden test positive for COVID-19 Quote:
Less than a week ago, several top White House officials mingled with guests in the Rose Garden as President Donald Trump officially nominated Amy Coney Barrett to replace Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg on the Supreme Court.
Many of those guests were seen not wearing masks, fist bumping and greeting one another in close proximity, and their seats didn't appear to be 6 feet apart.

On Thursday night, Hope Hicks, one of Trump's closest advisers, tested positive for coronavirus, then the president and first lady Melania Trump also tested positive. The president and his wife were present at the event, but Hicks was not.

Trump's Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett was diagnosed with coronavirus this summer Quote:
Judge Amy Coney Barrett, the President's nominee for the US Supreme Court, was diagnosed with coronavirus late this summer but has recovered, according to three sources familiar with the matter.
Barrett, and her husband, Jesse, were diagnosed. Jesse Barrett was asymptomatic but Barrett felt "a little under the weather but recovered," one of the sources said.

I can't imagine what the tweets from Trump would be like if the roles were reversed.

No matter what it is or for whatever reason, Dotard gets the attention he so craves. He wants his name on street signs, schools, stadiums, etc. He would be in seventh heaven if his face was carved out on Mount Rushmore. I wouldn't put it past him to blow up one of the existing faces to make room for his. Omnipotent child with a whole lot of money and power. In the end, he has no true friends or respect from others. All of which makes him one of the poorest person alive, in my books. We all end up six feet under or in ashes, but how we are remembered and how much of a positive difference we make in this world is the true measure of wealth.
