  1. “China reports…”

    There’s the rub.

    Trump: “Good job.”

    Reporter: “That’s China.”

    Trump: “No, that’s a plastic plate”

  3. I think the joke is “if you believe that I have a bridge to sell you”… Based on my several trips to China let me offer an opinion. It’s a fucking gross country full of robots and authoritarians. The food sucks, the air stinks and the demeanor of the people makes NYC seem like the set for Mr. Roberts. And they lie, cheat and steal. You wanna buy a bridge?

  4. This is something I’ve been following for about a month however there aren’t too many articles about this:

    NYC Doctor in ER and Critical Care: Lung Injuries Caused by Ventilators – “We’re Treating the Wrong Disease!”

    A New York City physician who says he is working as an ER physician in an Intensive Care Unit (ICU) treating COVID19 patients, took to YouTube to explain that he believes patients with COVID19 symptoms are being treated incorrectly with mechanical ventilators, and that the ventilators are doing more harm than good.

    In short, I believe we are treating the wrong disease, and I fear that this misguided treatment will lead to a tremendous amount of harm to a great number of people in a very short time… I feel compelled to give this information out.
    COVID-19 lung disease, as far as I can see, is not a pneumonia and should not be treated as one.

    My cousin who is an MD in NO sent me an article almost a month ago that reported that people on ventilators were getting damage from them and that damage may not be reversible.

  5. This is a blatant lie. Rather than CoVid being under control in China, I imagine that it’s spreading throughout the country.
