"I'm shaking hands. I was at a hospital the other night where I think a few there were actually coronavirus patients and I shook hands with everybody, you’ll be pleased to know, and I continue to shake hands."

it’s worth remembering that we are where we are now not because of people who dared to sit on the grass in brockwell park but because of the government’s decision to forego community testing and pursue a strategy of “herd immunity”

#BorisJohnson

has an extraordinary opportunity. He could go on TV from his hospital bed & apologize for minimizing #coronavirus. He could talk directly to the world, say that he was wrong & that he's proof this can strike anyone and they should stay home.

I hope he does it.

So @Telegraph has really decided to ratchet up the blame game. Yep, it's the *NHS* who's to blame for the #COVID19 lockdown. Oh – and US style healthcare would be better.

NHS staff – who's with me in boycotting @telegraph advertisers? Because this kind of accusation stinks. pic.twitter.com/UEXRmDw6k0

I’m gonna watch Trump’s last minute lie filled coronavirus propaganda press conference at 7 so you don’t have to. Nearly 10,000 Americans dead and I bet Trump will not only show up late, he will have a temper tantrum since he wasn’t allowed to go golfing this weekend. Can’t wait.

— Scott Dworkin (@funder) April 5, 2020

Maybe I missed it, but has ANYONE seen an expression of genuine sadness, condolence, empathy, compassion or comfort for the suffering from ANY leader on Team Trump?

In my book, it’s a bad idea to give power to people who feel disdain for the people over which it will be wielded.

No contingency plan — as usual.

So everyone is going to go to the GOP convention, come home with a new red hat and the coronavirus, and infect everybody in all fifty states.

Unemployment is at the highest rate in 80 years and we may lose more Americans than in all of our post-1945 wars combined.

There was nothing inevitable about this catastrophe. Trump’s mishandling of covid-19 makes him the worst president in US history. https://t.co/SAkWgReoHI

Senator Loeffler & her husband:

1) Sold millions in stock after a private briefing.

2) Sold stock in a travel company the day before more travel restrictions.

3) Bought stock in PPE manufacturers & teleworking companies.

If this isn't insider trading, I don't know what is.

Barbados' Minister of Health just indicated in a press conference that ventilators destined for the island had been "paid for but seized in the United States". It's every country for itself out here and the small ones will be the biggest losers.

BREAKING: A tiger at the Bronx Zoo has tested positive for Covid-19. 6 other tigers and lions at the zoo are also showing symptoms. Believed to have been infected by an asymptomatic zoo worker. All doing well. To my knowledge, this is the first animal to test positive in the U.S.
