VP Pence potentially Exposed to Coronavirus

[angrychair]

A student whose classmates met with and touched VP Pence is now quarantined.

On Friday, cadets at Sarasota Military Academy shook hands with Pence, who was visiting Sarasota for fundraiser. One cadet’s mom had been in contact with a coronavirus patient."

From the article the particular student was not present but still a story worth following

1. Is Pence quarantined?

[angrychair]

11. No

The specific student wasnt at the event but given the limited testing it seems unlikely anyone went to the trouble to test his classmates or to tell the VP's staff about the possibility of exposure

[Rorey]

2. Well if he's got it, then prayer is the answer

We'll see how devoted he really is.

[milestogo]

24. I'm praying he'll schedule some one on one time with POTUS ASAP.

31. But...

I thought it was a hoax.

Of course, it seems to be a hoax with a 3% mortality rate.

[former9thward]

32. It does not have a 3% mortality rate.

Far lower. Closer to 1% which is about the same as severe strains of the common flu. Even in the epicenter, Wuhan, where people live together like sardines only 1 out of 1000 even got infected. The rates of death are dropping in China daily to the point they have begun closing hospitals they quickly built.

For Chinese patients who got infected after Feb 1st the death rate is just 0.7%. The earlier patients overwhelmed the inadequate Chinese health care system and had a death rate far higher.

[matt819]

34. Don't recall where

But I read something from a virologist to the effect that it was closer to 3% than the earlier indications that it was around 2%.

The Johns Hopkins data suggests that it’s around 3%

3. ...

4. Honestly, Pence getting coronavirus almost immediately after czar appointment is totally

on brand for this fucked up timeline and shit show presidency.

[Pacifist Patriot]

13. I hate to say it, but...

I thought the same thing and immediately chuckled. Probably not something to be laughing about, but I couldn't help it.

[greenjar_01]

14. It's like an extended Benny Hill routine

You have to laugh at some point.

They should do a highlight reel of the Trump Presidency to Benny Hill music at the Democratic National Convention.

[BigDemVoter]

5. Good.

[no_hypocrisy]

6. Trump's a germaphobe. Pence will be banned

from the WH.

[bullwinkle428]

15. Twitter should turn this into a hashtag: #penceisinfected

[FM123]

7. Well, I hope he was a good little veep

and shook his president's hand the last time he saw him...

[UTUSN]

8. Will save SHITLER trouble of ditching him for Nikki. Plus, even if germaphobe, SHITLER

is in constant presence with PENCE!1

[MerryBlooms]

9. Uh oh. We know pence wipes his nose with his hands and shakes peoples' hands

without washing first. Lord knows what sorta ick he's already shared by wiping his boogers on other peoples' hands, let alone now possibly covid-19.

[NRaleighLiberal]

10. .

[TheCowsCameHome]

12. Maybe they'll have to quarantine Trump's ass,

since Pence kisses it on a regular basis.

[dalton99a]

16. No worries. Jesus is stronger than coronavirus

[Brainfodder]

17. VP barely looks alive now, poor thing.

Thank goodness he has the bestest Mother to take care of him!

I don't know about you, but I'm looking forward to his retirement.




Never let these shitheads live it down, NEVER!

[Stinky The Clown]

18. The boss better be careful. I understand ass kissing is a "strong (sic/djt)" way to pass the bug

[Vinca]

19. Be still my heart.

[mmbrevo]

20. I think he needs to give his favorite despot a big hug and kiss.

[zackymilly]

21. It's all part of Trump's plan to kick Mike out and bring Nikki Haley in as VP. n/t

[demtenjeep]

22. poetic justice and I hope he infected his boss (NADT)

bwahahahahahahahahahaha

and by extension # fatdonnie is too

[phylny]

23. HOAX!!!

[KentuckyWoman]

25. Oh merciful God

It just occurred to me that about a month from now wingnut preachers will be telling their congregations God sent the virus to cleanse/ punish the sinners.

I wonder if they are hosing DJT dow with purell before applying the cheeto dust.

[spanone]

26. And, he has been spending lots of time standing right next to the shitgibbon

🙏🏻

[MFM008]

27. And hes been

Face to face with Don the Con.

[Hekate]

28. Thoughts and prayers, Mr Vice President. Thoughts and prayers.

[TruckFump]

29. Oh, it's a hoax, right?

And if not, just pray it away!

Edit to fix typo

[klook]

30. Heck of a job, Pencie. (nt)

[Captain Zero]

33. Hope Pence and Trump come down with a raging case of it.

Then Nancy could be president until the election.
