Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrumpWow! @foxandfriends blew away the competition of Morning Joke (which did very poorly) on MSDNC (Another Comcast sleaze production), and @CNN ’s New Day, in the Morning Television Ratings. A total blowout, but that’s what you get when you treat “Trump†fairly!6:33 AM · Mar 10, 2020
My guess is it wasn't specifically a bio weapon. Just a lab experimenting with various viruses to see what happens when combined and to try different techniques at combining them. And it leaked out by accident.

What do they expect the National Guard is going to do? Except to get more people infected?This reminds me very much of all the talk about sending American troops to Africa to "fight Ebola". Really? Are people that stupid?There is only one way an army can fight an epidemic. And that draconian plan is something America would never do.
I just went half a mile to my local grocery store. I noticed I was out of milk when I wanted to make a cup of coffee for lunch. Lot of food on the shelf, lot of toilet paper, lots of cans. Then I got home and saw my state just had it’s first death. A 69 year old man.The two school districts near me, the one I’m in and another close one, closed today for some type of heavy cleaning. Anyway, the people at the supermarket and the customers don’t seem worried but they are buying wine like it’s the end of the world. I guess, if it’s the end of the world you wanna feel fine,
Wine has a better shelf-life. Well, the Red anyway....
Actually I don’t drink. I would rather have my calories in cookies. And donuts
Don't forget ice cream.

Does anyone here have any recollections or accounts of polio quarantines during the 40s or 50s? During those epidemics, children were essentially quarantined in their own house or yard. But this typically happened during summer months, so it was not an issue of closing schools.Polio had a fatality rate of around 6% for reported cases, but with infants, it was unlikely that an infection would be recognized as polio.
