    The way Trump's mind works reminds me of Karl Pilkington on the Ricky Gervais Show.

    I am convinced he believes the same monkey related news as Karl too

    He has given the same spoof every day for the last few weeks. NY/NJ think they need 30k ventilators.....
    He has not been able to sent more than 8-10k - and about 10% were not really to go...Cuomo called him out on it and Trump is now saying its the states fault....

    'Tony' is a qualified medical doctor - Trump is not

    If this ends with 100k deaths over the course of next 6 weeks - then Trump should stand aside

    :p
    Trump gave out specific details including numbers of ventilators
    No different to us wheeling out Tony every night.
    some might say at least Trumps stand up with his doctors to speak.

    I’ve often heard the German health care system is outstanding, I don’t know where they rank but it’s interesting that they are doing this and have a lower number of deaths per million than other countries.

    But like everyone is saying there is so much data out there and the situation is ever evolving so hard to fathom anything now.
    Here's the article

    Yawn

    People have been saying this for weeks now

    It seems that some people can't accept that we might actually be doing ok

    I dunno, I think people just expect the worst and aren't comfortable with good news.
    Nearly every post on here is negative, any positive post gets put down. And of course post with facts.... Canny have that.
    Personally, after all we've been though, myself personally cacooning for like 3 weeks now and the schools and pubs closed long before our 'lockdown' but still seeing double digits deaths, it can be demoralizing.

    I've always had such a good experience with nurses, doctors, Porter's and everyone that makes the hospital run. To imagine them having to deal with a peak like Italy or Spain.... And how it can break them physically, mentally and emotionally, that's what I fear.

    Amazon would be the best bet.

    The one I bought came with batteries. The batteries didn't last long for me even though it wasn't on 24/7. I'd say they lasted about 2 weeks, checking a few times a day.

    If there are "only" 100 thousand deaths Trump will claim that as a victory for his stance in this crisis.

    Trump is like Worzel Gummidge, only with worse hair and without his thinking head or his robin's nest in place of a heart.

    Fauci must be stuck between a rock and a hard place. Obviously he wants to serve at this level but sharing the stage with Trump must be increasingly difficult.

    So many things about this virus are surreal.
    The very odd Trump press conferences and their lack of social distancing while telling everyone to social distance.
    The vanishing whistleblower doctor in China.
    That it supposedly came from a Pangolin/bat in a wet market and.those things are still going.
    Faulty Chinese PPE after China causing this.
    The UK primeminister possibly at death's door and the Queen making a rare speech to the nation.
    A leader of a country reregistering as a doctor.
    This thread.

    It is just ****ing nuts.
