I still think trump's covid could be well controlled at this point.

That doesn't mean he won't be very weak physically for the next month. I'm betting that's the case.

It's not like there is no in between being on a ventilator and being healthy.

This crap can kick your ass and keep you weak for months while you recover.

It's not that it doesn't kill people. It definitely does. But most people do recover from it.

One doesn’t get hospitalized on the first day of a COVID diagnosis unless they are already very sick.

...if this IS some kind of wag the dog bullshit orchestrated by Mark "Apprentice" Burnette, "FUELING MORE RUMORS" is a key aspect of the strategy.

This crap we are going through while speculating in the absence of any believable information is SO IN ALIGNMENT with his damned strategy of "teasing for rating" only further to lead me to believe that this fucker is NOT sick.

With their credibility (or the lack thereof), I don't know what they can do to gain my trust. Definitely not their words, even if they bring the lab results and I would doubt if they doctored it.
