One might presume that all Senators are being tested ... just sayin' mr_lebowski Mar 2020 #5

He should have self-quarantined while he awaited results. And he's a f*cking doctor! Mrs. Overall Mar 2020 #6

Well, everyone should be self-quarantined, regardless of getting tested, so there's that (nt) mr_lebowski Mar 2020 #8

Swimming pools are pretty well designed to kill germs ... chlorine and all that.

They've been so insulated from reality they don't even realize when their well-being is genuinely threatened.

He should have erred on the side of caution and stayed out of the pool and the gym. WTF is wrong with these people? Its not like he has not been given high level information on this virus.

And even if he doesn't have enough GD sense to take precautions until he finds out if he has this lethal virus, how about the medical or even government officials who gave the test to him and/or to others - do they not have enough GD sense to say to avoid groups, pools, gyms, restaurants, etc. until the results come back? ESPECIALLY since one of Pence's staff members came up positive just YESTERDAY???

I feel like our government is being run by a bunch toddlers and it frightens the f)_ck out of me. This is GD COMMON SENSE PEOPLE.

gaining?
Like no Senate votes can be held if there are x number of absentees or something?

Extremely suspicious.
