(23,478 posts)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.

Miles Archer
(18,837 posts)...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.

Claustrum
(4,845 posts)You have a team of doctors at your disposal. If you are the little people, you are lucky to get a few minutes of one doctor's time.

Claustrum
(4,845 posts)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.
