'Don’t be afraid' of virus, Trump says as he prepares to leave hospital

[spidermike007]

So says Mr. Super Spreader. Who receives hundreds of thousands of dollars in treatment, in the past three days, none out of pocket. Tell that to the average Joe, who spends $400,000 on his hospital stay, if he does not have the proper insurance, if he survives.

 

One might hope that being brought down by Covid, might teach this old dog some new tricks. Too much to ask for. 

[BobBKK]

He's right. WHO estimate 800m have had it way over 99% recovered and mortality is way under 1%.

The interesting thing about the OP, ignored amid all the usual deprecations, was the mention of Trump's rather experimental treatment with remdesivir and dexmethasone. The fact that it seemed to have worked with some efficacy gives hope of wider application. 

 

Guess no need to wait for possible side effects emerging, then. Or for that matter, relate costs of the magic cure, availability.

It's going to cause some consternation if he did prove an unapproved treatment works. Just imagine if Trump "saved" us all from the nasty virus 5555555555555555

I thought he'd have tried the plasma transfusion as he'd been pushing that a while ago.

This soon start smell like big BS to me! If 74 years old man haddle covid in one day! Look more like Marvel comics than real life! If doctors has lied about this, they all should go prison for long time! They have get involved in politics and smash they doctor's oath!

It certainly does have an element of comic book drama. But if it is a deception then it is on a growing scale as many people regularly  seen to be in Trump's company as well as an undisclosed number of general White House  staffers are testing positive I doubt it.

Trump may be physically  functioning  on better than  usual drugs but time will tell if it can be maintained.

It certainly has not improved his attitude !

In what sense do you mean 'prove'? Kinda hard to believe your personal background references when you make such comments.

President Donald Trump said he will leave a military hospital where he is being treated for COVID-19 later on Monday, and urged people not to be afraid of the disease, which has killed more than a million people worldwide and wreaked economic havoc.

No, I am not afraid of the virus but have respect and act accordingly. I am more afraid of the person behind the stupid comment.

I can't believe it. The most scary virus since bubonic plague and ebola, beated by an obese McDonalds munching old man as if it was a common cold. What a lion. And for heavens sake, let's open up our countries and economies. This is all the proof I need that Trump has (once again!!) been proven absolutely correct and his haters proven totally wrong.

I wouldn't start crowing too soon, there's no telling what damage has been done to his lungs, or what will happen long term. Certainly none of us have to worry about brain impairment, his sense of right and wrong has been missing since childhood.

The Secret Service have sworn to take a bullet for him. After his latest publicity stunt, some must be wondering if they signed up to get a virus from him, by his own selfish actions, not any assassin.

I'd say you are deliberately ignoring the fact he had the best medical care in the world. For sure, better care than the 200,000 dead and 2.5 million active cases, many of whom were the victims when he trashed Obamacare and has done nothing to replace it. But don't let any facts get in the way of a trolling narrative.

You're not talking for "we".

Consult your own post celebrating the the 'hope'. Then try for the context of posts by other Trump supporters on this topic.

So 1 American who has the absolute best medical care the US has to offer is right and 210,000 dead Americans are wrong. Thanks for clearing that up.

obviously all losers.

 

if they were winners, they'd have a taxpayer-funded medevac chopper available for their sole use 24/7 and a taxpayer-funded staff of dedicated doctors and a taxpayer-funded wing at a top medical center dedicated to them alone and a taxpayer-funded treatment consisting of all the latest pharmaceutical breakthrough drugs.

 

amazing what $750 worth of socialized medicine will buy these days!

 

but it is what is is.

Do you have some common sense at all? He hasn't beaten anything yet, he is still spreading the virus.

[cmarshall]

Trump should be afraid.  Dr. Sanjay Gupta pointed out that Covid patients often rally, but then the disease can still worsen quickly, especially at the one week mark, which for Trump would be Wed. or Thurs.

[4MyEgo]

How ironic that Trump got Covid. He is in the dangerous age bracket that everyone is talking about and is obese. But Donald will make a full recovery and show the world that we have treatments right now and don't need this highly dangerous rushed vaccine from hell.

 

It's funny how most don't know about Agenda 21 because if people knew they wouldn't be wearing masks, let alone consider the rushed vaccines and being monitored 24/7.

 

Up and git em Trump !

You don´t really have to ask that question. Most of us already knows the answer to that. ????

And yes, Mr Trump is spreading the virus and removes his mask in public while still infected. Only a mad man would do a thing like that.

Yes, I can´t believe either. How can so many people, so easily, get brain washed by a total moron?

So Trump's reversal of environmental protections is the  counter agenda ? I guess  people didn't  know that either !

Can't deny these  Optics  ,The leader of the free world looks better than ever!

https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/519740-trump-tells-americans-dont-let-coronavirus-dominate-you-following-his

 

 

You might want to take a closer look at the 'optics'.  He was standing on the balcony, his breathing was very labored, his chest was heaving and he was breathing out of his mouth.   He is not a well man.  He's a long way from being a well man.

 

And gosh, the makeup. Looks like they have started the embalming process. Maybe that's the look he wants when the time comes...Anyway, the show must go on. Title for the latest episode: "The Last Hurrah!" 

 

Too bad the (one and only) star of the show had to resort to thumb-language. I do miss his booming voice (which now apparently would need some externally supplied oxygen to get boomed up!) Anyway, I'm DYING for "some great drugs & knowledge the Trump administration have developed", I guess they will be available to us soon - in the same fashion that "we'll have a great health plan in a couple of weeks" and "we're building a magnificent wall!" 

 

In the meantime, get back on those rallies soon Mr. President, even if all you do if a mask striptease accompanied by plenty of thumb-pointing, I'm sure your fans wouldn't have enough of it. Here on this forum we all pray, and pray hard, that all the drugs, especially those still in experimental stage - they are dosing you up with will "WORK" wonders in manner beyond our wildest dreams...

What a thing to say .. Breathtakingly insensitive to those already lost to it and their folks and mind numbingly stupid when he's not out of the woods himself yet .. 

 

Yes, especially all those pensioners murdered by Democrats in Michigan.

 

Funny how they try to lay 200k dead at HIS feet, when really he left much of which measures to take open to the governors (as per the constitution and states' rights, contrary to the claims of him being a Fascist dictator, just like how he didn't intervene in the burning and looting, until it became too much), and when the majority of these deaths happened in Democrat dominated states.

 

If you actually bothered to go to the CDC website, and read the stats, you'd learn that many of these deaths are linked with pre-existing medical conditions, pneumonia, cancer, etc.

 

And of course the elderly, mostly in retirement homes, who didn't receive adequate protection and "isolation" (I'm trying to think of a better word to use) due to the local Democrat lawmakers not bothering. After all, who needs "useless eaters", who no longer pay enough taxes, to fund all their "gibmedat"....

Don't worry, I suspect hardly anyone, worldwide, who has been following either Mr Trumps various antics, or the reports of the Corona virus, how it affects its victims over time and how it is spread, believes it either! The "obese McDonalds munching old man" hasn't beaten the virus, in 72 hours! He has merely been given treatment ( no expense spared treatment which would not be available to virtually anyone else) to suppress the symptoms and enable him to claim to have beaten the virus. He will still have the virus, it is quite possibly still beavering away to do it's damage inside him, and will almost certainly make him infectious to those who have contact with him, whether voluntarily (more fool them) or because their jobs and duty (unfortunately) compel them to.

 

Not that he would care "What a lion", in his narcissistic bubble he has beaten the virus - in 72 hours! If that is all the proof you need that Trump has (once again!!) been proven absolutely correct and his haters proven totally wrong, then I have several bridges and other buildings which you may be interested in acquiring at knock down prices - just give me an hour or too to knock up some supporting documents!

More recent statistics now show that the toll is levelling out between red and blue States.

That same medicine is coming soon to you, and others that need it.  Even faster if the socialist Democrats get out of the way of the free market and let the drug companies proceed.  Biden and Harris don't trust the vaccines?  LOL.  Who cares, they need to get outta the way and let the big boys take over.

Clearly, you have no understanding of science or vaccines. If they do not pass through necessary trials to prove their safety and efficacy, they can potentially kill even more people. Apparently, you haven't considered that part of the situation. 

 

The big boys?  Surely you jest...all of these drug companies are lobbying hard to assist in the removal of more than 20 million Americans from their account books, and you can bet that Covid will be referred to as a pre-existing condition in the near future, ensuring the tragic and unnecessary deaths of thousands of more people. 

 

Please stop watching Fox news and try to develop a bit of scientific knowledge instead of spouting MINDLESS Trumpist blather.
