Seems like if he was feeling ill he would have not bolted.

Perhaps he ran out of meth at home?

great song. Is that Graham Parsons on lead vocals?

If I were the guard I'd be offering beer, wine and assorted sundries to my 'prisoner' because well because he's a fellow American.

LOL. My father was working on the Virginia coast when Pearl Harbor happened. Everyone was told they must have blackout curtains on their windows if they wanted to have house lights on after dark. That was to prevent light from exposing freighters to lurking U-boats.

Who knows how legitimate that was. But everyone complied. No one whined about it.

Italy’s coronavirus toll surges as worries grow over hospitals
(Sunday March 15)

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-health-coronavirus-italy/italys-coronavirus-toll-surges-as-worries-grow-over-hospitals-idUSKBN2120XN

MILAN (Reuters) - Italy recorded 368 more deaths from the coronavirus outbreak on Sunday, its biggest one day rise, amid growing concern about the ability of its strained health system to cope with the relentless increase in new cases.

While the virus has begun spreading rapidly across Europe, Italy remains the second most heavily affected country in the world after China, where the illness first emerged, and the outbreak has shown no signs of slowing.

The government is working urgently on procuring more protective equipment, Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte said, adding there was maximum attention on helping Lombardy, the northern region where the virus emerged just over three weeks ago.

“Our priority is to keep doctors, nurses and all our health personnel safe,” Conte said in a statement a week after his government imposed a virtual lockdown across the country in a bid to contain the spread of the virus.

With 24,747 cases and 1,809 deaths by Sunday - a rise of 368 or 25% in the death toll in just 24 hours - Italy’s experience has offered an alarming example for other European countries which have begun seeing sharp rises in cases over recent days.

Lombardy, the heavily populated area around the financial capital Milan, has been the worst-affected region with 1,218 deaths. Of those, 252 were recorded in the last 24 hours.

What are you basing your ‘projections’ on?

This is how a free people lose their liberty and fall into a totalitarian state.

Or this how we stop our country from crashing its healthcare system, getting this over with in 2 months and helping Donald Trump to get re-elected.

Unfortunately you won’t get alot of support at FR from what I have found. Agree with you. Police on every corner? And how long for this martial law? That’s what it is. Just happened in PA and Pittsburgh.

Where’s the warrant? Are his rights under the Constitution being infringed?

Some doctors have mentioned using plasma from recovered people to use in treating or vaccinating people to solve some of this outbreak. Could those recovered people be identified so they could donate blood?

Does anyone know ...? If someone had Wuhan virus, didn’t know it, and has recovered, would that show up in tests later? Do the indicators show up in tests?

There might be huge pool of possible donors that we don’t even know about.

Italy IS NOT the United States. Geez...why do people compare countries. Shutting down international travel is/was enough. For Pete's sake it's a virus. We deal with viruses everyday; flu viruses and cold viruses are part of life. THIS is nothing but fear mongering in order to rearrange our lives and make government bigger and spend MORE money.

What exactly is it about THIS virus that is creating such a panic?

Civil Disobedience, Reckless Endangerment? Now subject to ‘detainment’ under guard?

Just a matter of time and a whupped up hysterical media until martial law is declared at this rate. Some communities have already been subjected to stringent controls, who knows what next?

Regardless, too many things can never return to ‘normal’ after this. And many on the Left would applaud that... and sadly, some on the Right as well.

I think “Coronavirus patient” pretty much explains that he was indeed ill even if he did not feel sick.

I’m sorry. What is your point? I don’t have time to sit through an hour and 55 minutes of mind numbing justifications (if that’s what this is)
