He owns Barr, but the SCOTUS is a different matter, they are appointed for life, there might be conservative judges (though some evolve), there are no Trump judges, not even Kavanagh.

The future's so bleak, I gotta wear a blindfold.

One good thing might be in the future, I just posted about it on my public health thread, an antibody treatment developed in Winnipeg, slide over and have a peek. It could shake up the future picture a bit, if it pans out. Read the news article, there's not much being said about this, probably would be illegal to jack the stock price by talking too much yet.

That tends to go with a practice along with a happiness. I have cause for optimism, evidence if you will, we don't know yet, but read the article and draw your own conclusions.

New signs suggest coronavirus was in California far earlier than anyone knew
Coronavirus might have been in California as early as December. The timing had dire consequences

I don't want to get complacent, but I had an odd cold in mid February, lots of people did. I really wish we had an antibody test available.

Did you read the article? Corona was being spread communally since early February and has been here as early as December. Also two of the four cases in my county are asymptomatic. I dont know why California was not ravaged like new York or Michigan, but something is definitely different about our rate of infection. The article also mentioned a bad flu season may have helped mask it's presence.It was a cold.

Yeah, I was mostly fucking with you.
But for a more serious answer let me say this.
There's a ton of disinformation, misinformation, speculation, educated guessing, confusion and conspiracy theories on all of this.
It's a novel virus and definitive answers are probably over a year a way. And yes, I read the article and it's interesting.
All the models are based on different data input. The 2.2 million worse case US dead had to be based on zero mitigation efforts with the highest R0 estimate. We did a lot to cut that down by staying home and wearing masks in public.
So yeah, you may have had it. I hope you did if you didn't get real sick. I'm just thinking that's unlikely but what do I know?
Before this virus really started exploding we were having a bad flu season here. There were articles in the local paper about it. The regular flu shot that I got may have been less effective this year, I don't think they'll figure that out till later either. Without widespread testing, there has to be some cross over there. But there were people with colds too.
It would have been nice to have any previous administration in charge here. Obama, Bush, Clinton, anybody other that the science denying douchebag we got stuck with 4 years ago. That guy has blood in his hands, but again you can't put an actual number on it right now.
I'm waiting for the 2022 made for TV movie and the future documentaries. I'm not a person who likes to wait for answers and neither is the society we live in. Maybe that's why a lot of shit winds up on Fox and the internet that is total bullshit.
We still have a lot of studying to do about all this. And we sure as he'll need to reinvest in public health and avoid any politician who openly denies science like the plague (or covid-19).

The etiology has been studied using genetic mutations and they can track strains with some accuracy. Most cases in New York come from europe for instance and they can also tell how long it's been in an area using this methodology.

I'm wondering if they got hit with a deadlier mutation. The LA times article suggested most cases in the Bay area were from people traveling to from China.

If they find a strain that is mild, I'll take it, provided it confers protection from the deadlier one! I don't think that's the case, I've seen stuff on multiple strains, but nothing from a serious source lately. I'm sure there are folks looking too.
