"Joe Biden tested negative for the coronavirus for the third time since he was potentially exposed at Tuesday’s presidential debate, his campaign said Sunday night."

"The Democratic nominee is not yet in the clear, however, because most people incubate the virus for two to 14 days before testing positive or showing symptoms," WaPo reports. "President Trump, meanwhile, could be discharged from the hospital as early as Monday, his doctors said."

So Joe gets another week in the penalty box at least and has to continue on in fear and trembling from then on but Trump could get out as early as tomorrow and will be able to go back to normal activities without worrying soon thereafter.

Karma, how does it work?

How irony works:

- Trump recovers speedily and is discharged, waits out his own quarantine and is ready for debate

- Biden tests positive, becomes ill, dies before election

- Kamala Harris does not automatically become Democrat candidate; Dems must nominate a new one

We should start a betting pool for the time the Biden "Campaign" calls a lid.
Closest without going over.

I think the lid tomorrow will be called at 9:34AM.

Is Karma running as a candidate in this election?

Sheesh.

Joe's been sitting in his basement, 100 percent healthy, and doing nothing. IF he behaves like this now, what's he going to be like as President? Its obvious, he's going stay in office six months or a year, and then hand it off to Kamala Harris. She's unqualified and got 1 percent in the Primaries, but I'm sure the American Public will love her.

Biden left his house 10 times in September. He gave no long speeches. He's obviously got some mental problems.

I was just pondering how a Biden contraction of COVID would again change the dynamic of the election, and then it occurred to me that the SOB may have already had it, and that's why he "stayed in his basement" unheard for so long, and that the MSM aka his campaign hid it from public knowledge.

Pretty much the only way I see the race tightening is if Biden announces in next 3 weeks that he as contracted covid.

Lots of talk about mask vs. no mask.
In S.F. Bay area, gonna assume most positives have been following the mask, distance rules.
As of Saturday, my county, Santa Clara, has 76 covid patients, 1661 other patients,989 beds available.
Second wave, if any, will be interesting.

So over at WaPo they’ve nailed down the incubation period as 8 days +/-6?

Mike (MJB Wolf) said...

As accurate as their polling I meant to say.

FullMoon said...

No surprise, he been a negative his whole career.

Even in the comments section Biden can’t draw a crowd.

Even in the comments section Biden can’t draw a crowd.

It’s funny because it’s true. Where are his cheerleaders?

stlcdr said...

Wait, 14 day incubation period?

So this means, according to WaPo, that even after 14 days of not having any presence of Covid - testing or otherwise - you could still have it?

Had the same thought occur to me this weekend. It would not surprise me and would explain some of his campaign's actions and statements.

Far left Dems are PRAYING for Biden to be poz. They can blame Trump and they get a second chance to nominate a lefty.
