Trump's Secret Covid Status

I think Trump caught covid at a good time.  Nationally apparently Covid mortality is dropping and severity isn't as bad, but this might be a reflection of more younger people added to the mix, or something else.

But I do wonder why he won't say that he's tested negative before hitting the road to visit his adoring fans here in Florida.  Doubtful he will expose his fans, but what about the people traveling with him?

Do you find it odd for him not to say "I'm negative and it's safe for me to travel".  Instead feeding into the idea that covid is no big deal, everything is normal. 

Donald Trump plans Florida rally on Saturday amid Covid test secrecy

Florida is a mixed bag of people here.  Most of us are being safe and cautious and helping to crush the curve, but we also have our fair share of deniers just being reckless, and people that are just plain tired and letting our guard down.  The county I live is the most densely populated in Florida but we're crushing it compared to the rest of Florida.  

Still, with relaxed restrictions here in Florida we are ripe for a huge 2nd wave and holding public rallies, even if outdoors, is irresponsible in my opinion.

It's not a matter of HIPAA just like it wouldn't be if he was intentionally spreading an STD, AIDS or TB. 

It's evidence that Trump has terrible and dangerous judgment which places no value on other human suffering or life.

Agree.

The 35 mental health professionals said Mr Trump’s “words and behaviour suggest a profound inability to empathise”.

The President’s tendency to “distort reality” to fit his “personal myth of greatness” and attack those who challenge him with facts was likely to increase in a position of power, they added.
