Senator Rand Paul @RandPaul
Senator Rand Paul has tested positive for COVID-19. He is feeling fine and is in quarantine. He is asymptomatic and was tested out of an abundance of caution due to his extensive travel and events. He was not aware of any direct contact with any infected person.

Rand Paul should give his neighbor a visit.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

Use the time God is giving us to seek His will and feel His presence.

From @Fishrrman 's link:

"The Wusan triad is Fever, Cough and Shortness of Breath. It is now considered diagnostic of COVID-19 infection by the New York City Board of Health. If a patient has Fever and Cough, then the this therapeutic regimen should start before the third point of the triad ,Shortness of Breath, is reached. By then the lungs have already been compromised and the clinical outcome is in doubt. People are concerned that the quinolones and Zithromax prolong the QT interval on EKG and this may lead to serious or fatal arrhythmias. Many therapeutic agents prolong the QT interval. However if a person develops a pneumonia the right side pressures of the heart increase rapidly and while myocardial tissue itself is not a direct target of the virus, the increased strain on the heart due to hypoxemia and increased pressures can in itself lead to arrhythmias.

Quinolones and Zithromax may or may not work. However as of now its the best physicians can offer to patients ill with COVID-19. RNA viruses are bad actors and developing a vaccine is difficult. However until an effective and safe vaccine is developed, this virus will continue to devastate humans and their culture.

BTW believe data out of China at your own risk.

You are right, I saw some reports of some rig workers who tested positive, and were relocated to NOLA.

I know of one definite case on one rig and a possible on another (waiting for test results).  But ours is OK so far.  Definitely not business as usual though.  Still feel safer here than at home.  High humidity 24/7.

Spanish opera singer Placido Domingo tests positive for coronavirus

MADRID (Reuters) - Spanish opera singer Placido Domingo said on Sunday he had tested positive for coronavirus and had gone into self isolation with his family.

“We are currently all in good health but I developed a cough and a fever and decided to get tested, and the result came back positive,” Domingo wrote on Facebook.

Spain is struggling to contain Europe’s second worst outbreak of the coronavirus after Italy, with over 28,000 cases and more than 1,700 deaths, according to the Health Ministry.

Senator Rand Paul @RandPaul
We want to be clear, Senator Paul left the Senate IMMEDIATELY upon learning of his diagnosis. He had zero contact with anyone & went into quarantine. Insinuations such as those below that he went to the gym after learning of his results are just completely false & irresponsible!

During the Senate GOP lunch today, Moran told colleagues that Rand was at the gym this morning, per two sources briefed on the lunch, and that he was swimming in the pool. Rand got his COVID-19 results back this morning.

Didn't duh Blasio get beat up for going to the gym "one last time" last week?  Not a good sign when the writers are reusing material so soon.
