Preciate it. They called around yesterday and found a clinic who said they'd test them and are awaiting results.

Eric Trump doesn’t understand the difference between a vaccine and a therapeutic.

Rachel Maddow has a strong anti-Trump bias, but most of her facts are sound, afaik, and in this piece about Herd Immunity* she is supported by various quotes and newspaper headlines:-

What RM doesn't mention is that the USA has so lost the battle to test, track and quarantine, that herd immunity may be the only option left to the country. When they had 15 registered cases, the authorities couldn't contain the spread, so they have no chance given today's figures. They can't even get past the first hurdle of the test, track and quarantine sequence: quick tests and quick test results. Understandably, the media has focused on testing problems, which has meant that nobody worries much about the next impossible task: the army of people that would be needed to track down the contacts of someone who tested positive, They couldn't even do it properly in the case of our beloved leader Trump, many of whose contacts were there on video to be identified.

I wonder if Europe is now, by default, on a similar path of just letting covid blow where it will and good luck luck to you

* Just to add to the gloom, there is mounting evidence that Herd Immunity doesn't make you immune: perhaps you can catch coronavirus as often as you can catch a cold. If so, a more accurate term would be Herd Contamination, not that the White House will be adopting that term any time soon.

Coronavirus Reinfections Are Real but Very, Very Rare

They’re still not sure but it’s pointing to something like most people develop cellular memory that will go into action after the antibodies are gone. If it ends up bouncing around endlessly like the common cold most epidemiologists and virologists will be shocked.

But yes, herd immunity is the same as absolute defeat. It means the virus is finished doing everything it can do. That’s like if there’s a serial rapist in your community and the cops say our plan is to let him rape everyone he wants to because eventually he’ll stop. In other words, you’ve given up and don’t have a plan.

Of course if you create herd immunity with a vaccine that’s different.

It looks to me like North America, South America, Europe, and India and Japan are going old school herd immunity.

The rest of the world may have bought enough time to vaccinate if one is developed.

Australia and New Zealand and countries like Vietnam and China and all of Africa need to close their borders and go full early wuhan style at the point of a gun lockdowns or they will be where we are.

In Wuhan, China demonstrated to the world the proper measures to take. We ignored their example to the tune of one million deaths at present and this winter is going to rage.

We got 215,000 dead in America and it’s like hey let’s go to a baseball game.
