TRUMP GOT COVID

gotta think they took his phone, if hes well enough for a photo op hes well enough to tweet

unless he just doesnt want to tweet cause hes sad about dying

have we considered the possibility that he's not tweeting because he's sad about being directly responsible for 200,000 deaths?

tbf when I was in the hospital a year ago I had IVs in each of my hands, and it was pretty hard to move my arms around without yanking uncomfortably at one of the sites. And I'm not a pussy, like Trump is.

It''s also possible he's not tweeting because he's spending all his time googling various illness. Like, say, covid.

The worst thing about that coin is I know it’s aimed directly at people like me who would fucking love to have one should he kick the bucket but $100 fuck that

Totes worth it imo.

btw The look on his face when he briefly coughs or seems to cough in that video he posted, while priceless, also reminds me of the look on his face when the eagle attacked him, and also when that guy stormed him on the campaign trail. which is to say, real panic and fear.

Seems fine!

conspicuously avoiding vitamin L, for loser.

Only a man as strong as an ox could take all those medications with no results, this guy must have a constitution of steel!

No. No, we have not. (Well, maybe treeship has.)

If he recovers, he's totally going to come out with some shit like "nobody before knew this could be contagious and land you in the hospital. I told my doctor this and he said with tears in his eye, 'sir we never knew this. Thank you for saving the country with this newfound medical discovery.'"

Uh oh, now Claudia Conway has it. That child lives a truly cursed existence and should file for emancipation immediately.

xpost I was going to follow up they suggestion with a bunch of “ahahahahas” but couldn’t lock in my post in time

Dad Conway hints we may learn why he went to the hospital last year. Some suspect use of aspirin hints at prior stroke.

Is it just me or is what’s happening to Claudia Conway right now clearly the start of some super villain origin story

Tipsy, interesting post, however I should say that this bit -

Republicans file a ton of lawsuits contesting the election, prompting massive street demonstrations and civil unrest as Biden attempts to put together a Cabinet and prepare for an inauguration that Mitch McConnell is declaring "illegal" and Fox News is calling a coup.

Is nonfiction. Pretty sure those things will happen anyway, presuming T loses.

xps:

Remdesivir: randomized trials with modest benefit.
Regeneron's REGN-COV2 antibody cocktail: Stage II without significant benefit, Stage III in progress. Dexamethasone: multiple randomized trials with substantial benefit in critical cases or less benefit severe cases (on supplemental oxygen).
Famotidine and melatonin: a few retrospective case series with lower risk of progression. No randomized trials.
Vitamin D: status predicts outcome, but no interventional studies to date.
Zinc: more speculative, helps with common cold & sepsis, benefits in cell culture, but only Covid-19 interventional study in conjunction with hydroxychloroquine & azithromycin. No randomized trials.
Aspirin: Trump's already on this as of 2018, 1st line anticlotting. No randomized trials.

The only Rx med there that's more speculative is the REGN-COV2. The last 5 are OTC meds with limited side effects. This isn't yet the kitchen sink, which could also include (for early pulmonary phase): enoxaparin (rather than aspirin), simvastatin (rather than the Crestor Trump takes), azithromycin, ivermectin, thiamine, magnesium...

There's antimony, arsenic, aluminum, selenium,
And hydrogen and oxygen and nitrogen and rhenium,
...
And argon, krypton, neon, radon, xenon, zinc, and rhodium,
And chlorine, carbon, cobalt, copper, tungsten, tin, and sodium.
These are the only ones of which the news has come to Harvard,
And there may be many others, but they haven't been discovered.

Uh oh, now Claudia Conway has it. That child lives a truly cursed existence and should file for emancipation immediately.

I couldn't be President of my cat when I was on Dexamethasone. He should not be exercising the powers of the Office of President on that drug. We are lucky if he doesn't start a war. He's incapacitated.

also, covid itself is reportedly often absolutely exhausting.

yeah I think it's kinda far fetched to think he's likely to die from this but given everything we've learned over the last 7 (!!!) months I don't see how he resumes his campaign prior to election day

15% chance of death in his age/weight range, aiui

i think he is going to die

Only 4% less than his chances of winning on Nov 3 according to 538.

xp

Higher (23%) among patients who receive Dexamethasone in the trial fwiw (not because Dexamethasone has kills people, but because you only give it to people who are already pretty ill). I would imagine it’s higher than 23% among the subset in that trial who were 74 and overweight and are rumoured to have had a stroke last year.

its the stroke rumors thatll really kill u

f/ Yes, they could give his last doses of IV remdesivir in WH, but still risky to discharge. In RECOVERY trial (which proved value of dexamethasone), mortality rate in TREATMENT group for pts requiring O2 was 23.3% (vs. 26.2% in usual care). A nearly 1-in-4 risk of death. (6/8)

This is a weirdly aggressive response.

Like sure, most people have it worse, and it might be nice to be rich and connected, but I wouldn't want to live in that fucking household.

just a few weeks ago she was talking emancipation, I don't think it's a guarantee she's getting any of that blood money.

"truly cursed" and "emancipation" are absurd descriptors, so sorry not sorry

Didn't she literally say something about wanting legal emancipation? Isn't that what caused her mom to resign?

anyway, who cares about any of them.

So has Trump put himself in charge of which medication is administered? I can well imagine him thinking he knows better than the doctors, and then demanding everything in their medicine cabinet whether it's a good idea or not.

eh ok sorry moodles it was weirdly aggressive

So the Dude is definitely grabbing people’s collars screaming “I don’t wanna die take Melania instead”.

When i was describing to my partner the other day how i specifically wanted him to suffer i described him as being incapable of moving beyond the bargaining phase of grief because that's all he knows. this speaks to me, is what i'm saying

this is so weird

He should do that more often, pop out of the car, take a couple laps.

good lord this whole spectacle is most dear leadery bullshit of all the dear leadery bullshit he's pulled thus far

That Presidential SUV is not only bulletproof, but hermetically sealed against chemical attack. The risk of COVID19 transmission inside is as high as it gets outside of medical procedures. The irresponsibility is astounding. My thoughts are with the Secret Service forced to play.

antifa trump continuing his brave war against cops

I don’t really know what this means but that doc is an attending physician at Walter Reed.
