If true - 100% BS: https://twitter.com/RanuDhillon/status/1311944315472547843?s=20 If she's only positive Wednesday afternoon, the likelihood of two people getting infected and having a positive result the day after would be near zero. That's not how it works.

@Robert Garry But look at the line of succession. If Pence is infected too, next on that list is Pelosi... Imagine theconstitutional crisis if we had to go down that list.I don't know man - I'm 55/45 on bullshit vs real. Let's see what happens...

Very interesting. I'd say that that's still a pretty quick response - Market was shut down 1/1, right? Could have been faster for sure, but not sure this is out of the ordinary give what must have been quite chaotic (plus stigma of SARS).

@Robert Garry Trump for sure knows he needed to shake up the election. I"m less than %5 that he joins @Covidfaker in the fake covid club, but that's non-trivial.

Eddies timeline very useful - yes fast but they type of response we'd hope becomes routine.

Hicks, Trump and Melania probably got infected from the same index case. After they found out he was exposed from Hicks or someone else instead of quarantining he did fund-raisers so yes 100% BS - only thing certain is that they are lying there asses off about the timelines.

Yes, very true - Hicks not being the index case (which is highly plausible) would explain the timeline. This kinda stuff on Twitter is fascinating (and scary): https://twitter.com/TimInHonolulu/status/1311883569086623744?s=20. Came across it from Carl's timeline.

If Hicks not index though, that puts Joe well within the danger zone... Shit.

I actually think Joe is probably OK - trump tested negative on Tuesday and Wednesday probably Thursday morning. So probably not infectious even though shouting. The risk is that there were other fools on Team Trump that had not gotten the same testing and were there in Cleveland spreading the virus. Joe and ALL his team definitely need to betested twice a day. Others on team Trump Jared, Ivanka etc are at very high risk because it appears there was asuper-spreader in the White House - let'
