Maybe we should tell him not to eat some 2-year old mayonnaise because it’s dangerous.

Speaking of therapeutics, if you were in the hospital and you have the disease and you’re looking over the doctor’s shoulder, what treatment are you going to ask for?
Remdesivir. Sadly the trials in the US have been so chaotic that the actual proven effect is kind of small. Potentially the effect is much larger than that. It’s insane how confused the trials here in the US have been. The supply of that is going up in the US; it will be quite available for the next few months. Also dexamethasone—it’s actually a fairly cheap drug—that’s for late-stage disease.
I’m assuming you’re not going to have trouble paying for it, Bill, so you could ask for anything.
Well, I don’t want special treatment, so that’s a tricky thing. Other antivirals are two to three months away. Antibodies are two to three months away. We’ve had about a factor-of-two improvement in hospital outcomes already, and that’s with just remdesivir and dexamethasone. These other things will be additive to that.
That is pretty hopeful, I needed that.
oh, and lolz
As you are the technology adviser to Microsoft, I think you can look forward in a few months to fighting this battle yourself when the company owns TikTok.
Yeah, my critique of dance moves will be fantastically value-added for them.

That just shows you have no tastebuds. Maybe boil some crabs in it? Beer batter for fish and chips?

If he’s saying he’s afraid of very rich, very powerful people out there - he’s not inhabiting the office of President very well. What are you afraid of little Donnie? Is Mars going to attack?

Aren’t his billion dollar loans due now-ish?
Seems to me those would be the ‘unhappy rich people’ he’s most worried about.

And a fourth action defers payroll tax collection for workers earning less than $100,000 a year, beginning Sept. 1. “This will mean bigger paychecks for working families, as we race to produce a vaccine and eradicate the China virus once and for all,” Trump told reporters.
Trump said the “payroll tax holiday” would last through the end of the year but could be made permanent if he is reelected. The connection to November’s election wasn’t subtle.
“If I’m victorious on Nov. 3, I plan to forgive these taxes and make permanent cuts to the payroll tax. I’m going to make them all permanent,” Trump said, then turning to jab congressional Democrats and his opponent, former Vice President Joe Biden. “So they will have the option of raising everybody’s taxes and taking this away. But if I win, I may extend and terminate. In other words, I will extend it beyond the end of the year and terminate the tax. And so, we’ll see what happens.”
Will anyone be surprised when, after he is re-elected, he cites a lack of funding for major social programs as reason to get rid of them?

Who owns Deutsche Bank is the question I guess.
“ Deutsche Bank (DBKGn.DE) on Thursday said Los Angeles-based Capital Group has taken a 3.1% stake”
“ After Capital Group’s investment, Deutsche Bank’s largest shareholder remains the Qatari royal family, with a combined share of at least 6.1%, the bank’s website showed.
That is followed by BlackRock with 4.49%, and Hudson Executive Capital with 3.14%.”

The funny (not ha ha funny) thing is the way he plans to fund all of this is by … wait for it … making the states pay for the shortfalls here. And there’s no timeline. And the legality of all of this is highly questionable since it’s Congress that controls the budget.
It’s a giant clusterfuck all around that is just going to dick around the very people he’s purporting to help.
