[DENVERPOPS]

18. Amen to that....

If we didn't laugh, we would cry......

[PatrickforO]

2. Kind of funny.

Infuriating at the same time.

[yaesu]

3. the rich are all hiding in their self contained gated communities or New Zealand forts. nt

[lark]

4. K&R - sady true in many places right now n/t

[ffr]

5. Took me a second, but that's where Cult45 have put us.

We're a 3rd World country full of haves and have-nots.

[DENVERPOPS]

19. It's the Republican's dream

Upper, upper class for 1%

Lower, lower class for 99%

6. That's some dark but seemingly accurate humor. Nt

7. My wife who has allergies was in Target last week

Told me she was in an aisle that had 3 other shoppers with carts shopping as well.
Wife said she sneezed twice, then coughed.
Upon stopping, she looked around to see the last if the 3 turning corner of the aisle.

Quickly

13. I don't really have any allergies,

but if I start sneezing, it's normally four to five very forceful sneezes, followed by a dizzy spell of a minute or so, then thirty minutes of intense sinus drainage symptoms. If I feel a sneeze about to happen, I have to nearly maul my nose to thwart the tickle or itch that is trying to set off the sneezing. So much for not touching my face in public.

8. Crilaff or laffsob...

Not sure of the best mash-up word to describe my response to this revelation.

Glad to see there's a plan.

9. True - still waiting for my results

Swabbed last Thursday, told results would be 24 to 48 hours. Being told this Monday morning that it will be maybe Wed or Thursday... If I had coughed in Pence's face last week I would know by now.
Anyway - stay safe everyone!

[dchill]

11. Well, Pence would know, anyway.

[dchill]

10. I can't fault the logic.

[IronLionZion]

12. American problems require American solutions

[DFW]

15. Or just have Trump confirm that you don't have it. n/t

[Skittles]

16. yup

[Dem2theMax]

17. I couldn't even laugh at that.

It is funny, but it's also the truth. This is what makes me almost as mad as the fact that Trump ignored everything from January on.

[Kaiserguy]

20. Sad but True

That is America today

[Paka]

21. Sorry, but I don't find that either funny or helpful.

There are better ways to deal with the rich and quicker ways to test. I don't wish sickness and death unpon anyone.

[DesertRat]

22. k&r

[SergeStorms]

23. There's so much truth to this.

That would be the ONLY WAY someone like myself would ever find out if I was COVID-19 positive.

[CozyMystery]

25. Same here.

All my daughter and I can do is hope for the best. We are in lock down at her apartment as of tonight. My kids voted unanimously that I had to come here because my high risk husband thinks C19 is no big deal and is 100% positive he won't get it. He takes zero precautions.

My daughter and I are also high risk, and all the kids are afraid my husband will get it and pass it on to me, and I will die.

[SergeStorms]

30. I give you credit.....

for having the intelligence and will to do what you're doing. Many women wouldn't do that for fear of being called "unsupportive" of their husband. Support of any spouse ends when they're putting your life in danger. You hunker down with your daughter and both of you stay safe, OK?

[marlakay]

32. I totally get it my husband and I were having

Arguments because he wasn’t as careful when he went out as me. But it has hit home last few days and now he goes nowhere but he is also depressed.

I think his not being as careful before was being in denial about it.

27. Watch for 3 common symptoms of covid-19

1. Fever...this is most common symptom from any infection deep inside you body, and common with covid-19.
2. Dry cough with no mucous expelled. Flu will normally produce mucous.
3. Pneumonia like breathing difficulty and general weakness which comes from less oxygen in blood.

[SergeStorms]

31. Oh, don't worry.

I watch my health like a hawk, and at the first sign of anything amiss I'll contact my PCP. He and I are family friends and I literally trust him with my life. I used to have his Dad as my PCP, as well as a good friend. I remember his son when he was just a little tyke, and we've had a great relationship his entire life. I'm extremely fortunate to have a Doctor of his caliber and closeness in my life. He'd get me tested if I really needed it, I'm sure.

[at140]

33. Good to have a doc you trust, but I do have one question....

Does your doc inquire about your diet & exercise during every visit?
I have probably seen a dozen different doctors in my 60 years in United States,
and not one time any doc asked me what I was doing for exercise.
But they were all without exception real quick to prescribe medications & tests.

[SergeStorms]

34. Always.

I have type 2 diabetes, so every 3 months I get my blood work done for my A1C before my appointment with him. Believe me, if my A1C is high he reads me the riot act. He's always used prescription drugs as a last resort when other methods (more exercise etc.) fail. I had a spinal fusion a few years ago and my exercise regimen took a nosedive, so prescription drugs were prescribed to keep my A1C down around 7.0 He's a well respected Doctor nationally. He's spoken at The Harvard Club, the NYS House and Senate, and many other places nationally as a proponent of universal healthcare in the U.S. I consider myself an extremely fortunate individual to have him as my PCP, and with my Medicare Advantage plan I pay exactly $0 for an appointment. So yeah, I have it made in the shade with my Doctor.

35. Sounds like a keeper! nt

[Nitram]

24. LOL! Welcome to the America of the 21st Century.

[at140]

26. Seems unethical?

Like the dude who was knowingly infecting unsuspecting females with his HIV.
He ended up in prison.

[lunatica]

29. It's a joke.

[lunatica]

28. This made me really laugh!
