Republican Senator Ron Johnson has tested positive for Covid-19 but appears to be an asymptomatic case, his spokesperson says.
The Wisconsin senator, who heads the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, had the result confirmed on Friday. He "feels healthy and is not experiencing symptoms" but will stay in isolation until he is cleared by a doctor, the spokesperson said. They did not indicate how Sen Johnson might have caught the virus. Wisconsin news provider Wkow 27 quoted his office as saying he had become infected shortly after returning to Washington on 29 September, following two weeks of self-isolation during which he had twice tested negative. Sen Johnson becomes the third Republican senator to test positive in the past two days - in addition to Thom Tillis and Mike Lee - along with others including former Trump aide Kellyanne Conway, Trump campaign manager Bill Stepien, Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel, and three White House correspondents. |

Another aspect of the globalists strategy is to mock anything positive about Hydroxychloroquine; they can`t be having this plannedemic finishing anytime soon, their big-pharma comrades really don`t want us paying a fiver for it, as opposed to the £3,000-odd for Remdesivir , which is needed if they`ve managed to avoid giving you the hydroxy, and it most certainly can`t have been something promoted by The Don! |

Trump not on hydroxychloroquine, doctors say
President Trump asked about the drug hydroxychloroquine, but is not taking it at this time, his doctors say. Early in the pandemic, he touted the medicine as a treatment for coronavirus - a recommendation not borne out by medical research. First Lady Melania Trump, who has also tested positive, remains at the White House and is not being treated at the Walter Reed military hospital. She is "doing great", the doctors say, and is "convalescing at home". |

His physician has just gave a live update.
Says he's doing very well, getting lots of work done that the chief of staff had given him. Was evasive on some of the questions asked by reporters, and the timeline he gave was different to what was known, he said he had been treating him for the last 72 hours. His positive test only hit the news 36 hours ago. |

Go back to the playground search box, see if you can find what you alleged;
`didn't timmeh say that was a scam and hydro-C was prefectly adequate?` Should you be unable to do that, if you`re basing your allegations on that^^^, well, you`re a leftie, words mean whatever you want them to, up means down, commie leftie means moderate, centrist means far right, so I can`t help you, other than suggesting you get yourself a dictionary. |

72 hours' reference raises questions at medical briefing
Starting the briefing, Mr Trump's personal doctor said they had decided to move the president to the hospital out of caution. "Just 72 hours into the diagnosis now, the first week of Covid - in particular days seven to 10 - are the most critical in determining the likely course of this illness," Dr Sean Conley said. But as BBC North American editor Jon Sopel pointed out on Twitter, Mr Trump only confirmed his positive test early on Friday morning - roughly 36 hours ago. |

Former Republican governor of New Jersey Chris Christie - who was among several people to help Donald Trump prepare for Tuesday's debate against Joe Biden - says he has tested positive for Covid-19 and will receive medical attention.
Christie - who left the governorship in 2018 - said on Friday that he had no symptoms and felt "fine". An earlier test on Tuesday was negative, he said. On Friday he told US media that no one had been wearing masks when he and others sat down with Trump to prepare for Tuesday's televised debate. "No one was wearing masks in the room when we were prepping the president during that period of time. And the group was about five or six people, in total," he said. Those present reportedly include Trump, his aide Hope Hicks and his campaign manager Bill Stephen - who have all tested positive - as well as his lawyer Rudy Giuliani and adviser Stephen Miller. This is beginning to unravel... |

One of the docs on the medical team treating him was introduced as what I thought was Dr Gary Baldi, but when he got to the microphone to speak they flashed his name on screen. Was Doctor Brian Garibaldi. Disappointed me, I prefered the former.

timmeh timmeh timmeh when you said
big-pharma comrades really don`t want us paying a fiver for it, as opposed to the £3,000-odd for Remdesivir any right thinking forumite would surely conclude that you thought covid sufferers were being cheated by big-pharma - ie scammed. What did you mean other than that? when you said which is needed if they`ve managed to avoid giving you the hydroxy any right thinking forumite would surely think that you thought that hydro-C was prefectly adequate. Didn't you mean that? |

As previously suggested, if you need me to explain the difference between what I wrote and how you choose to interpret that, get yourself a dictionary. Why is twisting the meanings of words such a leftie thing? Is it because they can`t beat truth? I think so.

`I am your President, I am your Commander-in-Chief, I went to face this chinese enemy on your behalf, going not just to the front line, but deep beyond enemy lines, all to protect and defend YOU, my fellow American citizens. Now, I return a Conquering Hero, having seen of this fiend! I did it, you can do it, WE can do it! Oh, and thanks for the four more years!` |
