Prince Albert of Monaco is the first Head of State to test positive for the disease:
Following reports that Prince Albert of Monaco has tested positive for #coronavirus, it’s probably worth pointing out that he was in the same room as Prince Charles at a @wateraid event in London on 10 March (nine days ago).— Chris Ship (@chrisshipitv) March 19, 2020

I'll update this post with anything that catches my eye.
Getting the feeling from some of what he says here that Trump misunderstood what they've told him and is now expecting a miracle cure in the next week or so.— Jonathan Bernstein (@jbview) March 19, 2020

By Monday he's going to be sucking his thumb in the corner. #coronavirus #TrumpIsIncompetent pic.twitter.com/DCWINuOige— Neil 🇺🇸 Ⓥ (@basementvegan) March 19, 2020
Update on Friday morning, from The Mooch:
I hope this is played everyday everywhere until Nov 8. Unless @realDonaldTrump resigns as he should immediately. pic.twitter.com/NMlihRJR3o— Anthony Scaramucci (@Scaramucci) March 20, 2020
Update #2: Shelter-in-Place goes into effect in Illinois tomorrow; after the
governor spoke, Emily Landon, the chief infectious disease epidemiologist
at the University of Chicago Medicine said this:
As daily life undergoes rapid changes in response to the coronavirus outbreak and the death and infection total climb, a Chicago epidemiologist is drawing praise for her comments at a Friday news conference that outlined with clarity and urgency how seemingly small sacrifices today will prevent deaths of loved ones and strangers next week.
Emily Landon, the chief infectious disease epidemiologist at the University of Chicago Medicine, took the lectern following Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker (D) who on Friday afternoon announced the state would undergo a shelter-in-place order for two and a half weeks starting Saturday evening.
“The healthy and optimistic among us will doom the vulnerable,” Landon said. She acknowledged that the restrictions like a shelter in place may end up feeling “extreme” and “anticlimactic” — and that’s the point.
“It’s really hard to feel like you’re saving the world when you’re watching Netflix from your couch. But if we do this right, nothing happens,” Landon said. “A successful shelter in place means you’re going to feel like it was all for nothing, and you’d be right: Because nothing means that nothing happened to your family. And that’s what we’re going for here.” (From the Washington Post, read more here.)
Wouldn't it be great if we had a president who could communicate like this?

Update #4 on Thursday March 26. Donald's campaign really doesn't like
this one. In response to the Cease and Desist letter, Priorities USA has
purchased additional airtime for the ad:
