Wot no coronavirus thread? Part 2

[Kidlicious]

The Health Minister of Belgium has banned non-essential sex between 3 or more persons

[ricketyclik]

What!?! Oh, Belgium, that's ok.

[Ming]

While Trump does nothing but pout in the White House... and Americans are dying.
And his response... "It's 'terrific' so many Americans have caught the coronavirus because it 'is a very powerful vaccine in itself'

[Ming]

3,140 AMERICAN DEATHS in a single day, and Trump thinks it's terrific. Now that's Leadership

[Proteus_MST]

As long as the people dying are other people and not Trump himself or those in his close vicnity, like members of his own family, he doesn't care

[pchang]

If even people as close as Rudy Giuliani were to die, I doubt Trump would lose much sleep.

[Proteus_MST]

True, Giuliani dying from CoViD-19 wouldn't cause Donnie any headaches ... probably not even if Melania would die from the disease. If, however, his beloved daughter (Ivanka, of course, not Tiffany ) were to die, Donnie would be sad, I think

[BeBMan]

He's too busy golfing against China.

[Uncle Sparky]

USA with over 3000 deaths in one day. USA nearing 300,000 death from COVID-19. I see why people who hate Americans want to keep Trump in power.

[pchang]

It's almost as if Kid and Lancer have a death wish....

[Proteus_MST]

With regards to Corona, Trump really made the USA Number 1 in th world.

And as Trump correctly predicted:
Most US citizens have grown tired of so much winning

A promising Australian candidate for a coronavirus vaccine has been abandoned after trial participants returned false HIV positive results.

The vaccine had been in stage one of trials, and proving to be effective in making antibodies.

But it also generated HIV antibodies in some recipients - which meant it showed false positives for HIV. Further testing proved the HIV wasn't there.

What the what now?

[Uncle Sparky]

Protects against COVID-19 and HIV? Keep working on it!

[N35t0r]

I read it somewhere else, can't find the explanation now, but it seems they were using parts of the hiv genome in the vaccine, and that's what triggered the false positive (on one particular hiv test)

Since there's already several other vaccines ready, and in order to avoid 'hurr durr vaccines give you hiv' shenanigans, they decided to stop the effort.

[BeBMan]

We might not have a vaccine. Maybe we will. Personally, I'll take HCQ+Zinc if I get any symptoms so I'm about as worried about it as I am about the flu. I think going forward it's about equal in seriousness.

Quoted for posterity.

[Ted Striker]

US death count now higher than total combat death in WW2

Apparently American wannabe fascists are much better at killing other Americans than the originals

[Kidlicious]

Looks like Rudy Guiliani is going to survive.

[BeBMan]

Good for him, bad for America.

[Ming]

Looks like Rudy Guiliani is going to survive.

And it seems he got the same top notch treatment as Trump did... unfortunately, not all Americans are so lucky, and the death count continues to climb... and all Trump can say is that it is GOOD that so many people have caught it.

[Kidlicious]

He took some vitamins

[Ming]

Ben Carson, Chris Christie and Donald J. Trump are not the sturdiest candidates to conquer the coronavirus: older, in some cases overweight, male and not particularly fit. Yet all seem to have gotten through Covid-19, and all have gotten an antibody treatment in such short supply that some hospitals and states are doling it out by lottery.

Now Rudolph W. Giuliani, the latest member of President Trump’s inner circle to contract Covid-19, has acknowledged that he received at least two of the same drugs the president received. He even conceded that his “celebrity” status had given him access to care that others did not have.

To bad that most dying Americans didn't get the same treatment.

[Kidlicious]

To bad that most dying Americans are in NY nursing homes
