Ugh. Truly don’t wish the bad version of this **** on anyone. If there’s a silver lining, each famous person who gets may help another set of people listen more to medical professionals than political talking heads.
I tell you who tested that tiger, it was the ****in Carole Baskin. Used her ex-husbands test and all.
True... But again, if we now know human to animal transmission is possible after months of thinking it wasn't, it's a huge global development...
1.67 million people have tests results in hand, but you are b****ing about a tiger getting tested which provides valuable science about the virus. Try being pro science.
I think at least 2 dogs confirmed. Not sure either died of the virus. One did die after getting put through the ringer of testing though. I imagine a ton of animals have it and also imagine it's not going to be a big deal. But we'll see. I guess it could mutate or something. I don't know, I'm not an expert on this and unlike the President I wont pretend to know.
Well, no -- Hong Kong. But who cares. If it's happened, it's happened and can possibly happen anywhere.
Some Trump supporters are calling for the firing of Fauci because they think he's a deep state agent.
Why must I constantly have to remind people I encounter to social distance ?? People are walking up to me so freely like it's just a regular day. WHY all KNOW The REAL reason. ALL races are doing this -- some are successful business owners. They respond with 'oh yeah', then make the same mistake 2 minutes later. Putting a number on it --- 70% of the random public are NOT social distancing properly. Perhaps in spirts (standing in line when they're almost forced by a marker on the floor), but MOST folks are not doing it.
i think the fear is it can jump if it jump to a tiger... then it may jump around, mutated and all... so yea, a tiger suspected of c19 should be tested then do whatever study they need to figure out if it can jump to other animals and back to human.
perhaps some good news that have had 3 days in a row of drop in daily death worldwide: Total Deaths of Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) Date Total Deaths Change in Total Change in Total (%) Apr. 5 69,426 4,736 7% Apr. 4 64,690 5,799 10% Apr. 3 58,891 5,714 11% Apr. 2 53,177 5,979 13% Apr. 1 47,198 4,889 12% Mar. 31 42,309 4,535 12%
I don't think a jump means that necessarily, in this case it was most likely just for the care of the animals vs science as @Bandwagoner claims. (https://www.aphis.usda.gov/aphis/newsroom/news/sa_by_date/sa-2020/ny-zoo-covid-19) I am just surprised that human who are very sick and dying in some cases aren't being tested but animals are. It seems there is a stratification of who gets tested. Celebrities, important people, rich all have gotten tested even when asymptomatic, but even people I know who have had tell tale symptoms get sent home despite being very ill. Don't you find that puzzling?
