Worth thinking about how the Trump campaign and the president would be reacting if Biden was the one being hospitalized tonight with COVID.

Cuomo gets a lot more coverage because the national media is based in New York and his brother is on CNN, but CA has contained coronavirus much better than NY, and Gavin Newsom (and London Breed and Eric Garcetti!) have, so far, done a lot of good.

President Trump, asked about Americans with symptoms unable to get a test: “I’m not hearing it.” Dr. Anthony Fauci, minutes later: “I understand with and empathize with people who say 'I want to get a test, and I cannot.’” He adds, “That is a reality that is happening now."

As Intel chairman, @SenatorBurr got private briefings about Coronavirus weeks ago. Burr knew how bad it would be. He told the truth to his wealthy donors, while assuring the public that we were fine. THEN he sold off $1.6 million in stock before the fall. He needs to resign.

The first coronavirus case in the U.S. and South Korea was detected on the same day. By late January, Seoul had medical companies starting to work on a diagnostic test — one was approved a week later. Today, the U.S. isn’t even close to meeting test demand reut.rs/3daq8mF
