Trump to quarantine awaiting Covid test

[Doctor Phibes]

If he plans to run in 2024, the next four years will be just awful.

[George K]

I guess Trump was interviewed (via phone) on Hannity last night. I didn't watch, but there's chatter about how he sounded hoarse and was interrupted by coughing fits a couple of times.

[George K]

And this just happened:

He may have the the seven day bounce, as the antibodies and steroids wear off. He needs to rest, but that may be impossible for him.

This further lays to rest the idea of a debate next week

Trump triumphantly returns to spread more virus.

Trump to speak, today, from White House balcony to a crowd of supported on the South Lawn.

Also, “ Trump’s campaign announced that he would lead a rally in Florida on Monday at an airport hangar, similar to the events he had been doing before his diagnosis.”

Balcony seems fine. At least for the crowd anyway. The spreading within the White House itself is probably not over.

Yes, Mr. Trump loves to try to kill people with the virus.

And people who vote for him are stupid.

You’re only half wrong!

Just yesterday people were speculating he was hiding his health. Coighing, stuttering Today he is vigorous as ever. You guys make it easy for him to defy the odds. The left is literally making him Superman.

God made him superman

The left is building the legend.

Trump worshipper in India who fasted when he learnt that Trump contracted COVID-19 died of cardiac arrest.

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/10/14/world/asia/india-trump-fan-dies.html

NEW DELHI — In India, where throngs admire President Trump, one rural farmer worshiped him like a god, praying to a life-size statue of Mr. Trump in his backyard every morning.
.
His village’s headman said that the young farmer, Bussa Krishna, had been drawn to Mr. Trump’s “straightforward ways and blunt speech.”
.
When Mr. Trump announced he had tested positive for the coronavirus, it devastated Mr. Krishna. The farmer posted a tearful video on Facebook, in which he said: “I feel very sad that my god, Trump, has contracted the coronavirus. I ask everyone to pray for his speedy recovery.”
.
He stopped eating to show solidarity with his idol’s suffering from Covid-19, his family said. He fell into a deep depression. On Sunday, he died of cardiac arrest.
...

Condolences to the late Mr. Krishna’s family and loved ones.

Trump’s Chief of Staff Mark Meadows tested positive for COVID-19.

I mentioned that last night in the thread we have for “other white house officials”

On Friday, Oct. 2, 2020, hours after the president announced on Twitter that he had tested positive for the virus, he recorded a blood oxygen level of about 86 percent, Mr. Meadows wrote. That is roughly 10 points below what would be considered normal. Most healthy people have a blood oxygen level of about 95 to 98 percent, although some people may have lower normal readings.

Just so everyone understands, the percentage of O2 saturation says that his red blood cells are carrying 86% of the O2 they're capable of.

The dangerous thing is that the correlation between how much oxygen you're exposed to and how much your blood can carry is not linear. At about 85% or so, the curve starts to fall steeply, meaning that the hemoglobin is more likely to RELEASE oxygen than to carry it to tissues.

Whenever I saw SpO2 of less than 90, I would get worried - very worried. This turn to shit quickly below that.
