Worldwide, there have now been 308,446 confirmed cases of the coronavirus and 13,068 deaths. In the United States, there are 26,867 confirmed cases and 348 deaths. New York has the most cases, 11,677. Washington has 1,793, California has 1,505, New Jersey has 1,327, Michigan has 807, Florida has 763, Louisiana has 763, Illinois has 753, Massachusetts has 525 and Colorado has 475. There are even eight confirmed cases in Hawai'i and 12 in Alaska. But of course King Donald the First said last month the virus was "contained." And he's now turning every every press conference into a campaign rally. He praises himself, he attacks Democrats, he attacks the news media and he spreads lies and false accusations. Welcome to Trumpworld.

Many of the Olympics qualifying events have been canceled and there are growing calls for the Olympic games to be canceled as well.

The 1964 Olympics in Tokyo were held in October. The 1968 Olympics in Mexico City were also held in October. The Olympics are now usually held in July or August when there are no baseball/football/soccer/hockey/basketball playoff games and television networks can devote more time to Olympics coverage. However, this year's games will be postponed, possibly until 2021, because of the coronavirus pandemic. Details have not yet been announced. And please don't make fun of this man's name. I'm asking nicely.

Remember when King Donald the First declared himself to be a "stable genius"? He obviously believes he knows more than all our nation's health experts and medical experts combined. "Go back to work, everybody. The coronavirus is no longer a problem." By the way, there have been 49,594 confirmed cases of the coronavirus and 622 deaths in the United States. Globally, there have been 408,913 confirmed cases and 18,260 deaths.

King Donald the First keeps referring to COVID-19 as a "Chinese virus." Here is another excellent reason why it should be called the "Trump virus."
US slashed CDC staff inside China prior to virus outbreak
The Trump administration cut staff by more than two-thirds at the US public health agency operating inside China, as part of a larger rollback of US-funded health and science experts on the ground there leading up to the coronavirus outbreak.

Worldwide, there have now been 471,687 confirmed cases of the coronavirus and 21,297 deaths. In the United States, there have been 68,472 confirmed cases and 1,032 deaths. In laboratory tests involving cell cultures containing the SARS-CO-2 coronavirus (the causative agent for COVID-19), a new drug called Vicromax reduced infection by 90%. It might turn out to be a cure for COVID-19. We can hope.

Wash your hands regularly for 20 seconds, with soap and water or alcohol-based hand rub.
Cover your nose and mouth with a disposable tissue or flexed elbow when you cough or sneeze.
Avoid close contact (1 meter or 3 feet) with people who are unwell.
Stay home and self-isolate from others in the household if you feel unwell.
Don't touch your eyes, nose, or mouth if your hands are not clean.
