in Cali reported yesterday up here

"“The transfer of this case into a Sonoma County hospital should not be a cause for alarm "....then why the f**k are they reporting about it if there's no cause for concern? Just to stir people up, imo

Some guy on Fox Business made that claim (it's being ridiculed on twitter) and then Trump repeated it.
Who was that?
I didn't see anyone make the comment on fox. But I guarantee the market is nervous. If Bernie would be elected the market will tank. You can take that statement to the bank.

We skipped flu shots last year and we all got it. It felt like a house of death! Never again.

How is it lies? It's his opinion, just like all of your anti Trump pieces that you post. Opinions. Just like when you constantly criticize our President. Opinions.

It certainly makes sense for that to be one theory. If a communist gets into the Whitehouse, that's going to spell the end of free trade and our free market system. Personally I think it's far too early for the market to be reacting to, what I hope is, a remote possibility.

Personally I'm in the camp that the drop is due to the exacerbated panic that keeps being stoked by the media over the corona virus. Trade is being impacted by the quarantine, which is going to make the market jittery, because China is the second largest component of the global market. If people aren't going to work making their widgets and the ships can't get to where they need to go to drop off the widgets, that's big trouble.

It's not my opinion. It's every single expert in the whole world's opinion and not all that hard for us amateurs to figure out. Here are the Headlines from around the world (you might want to read some of these):

Global markets continue to slide on coronavirus fears

Coronavirus fears trigger biggest one-day fall on US stock market

US and UK stock markets plunge as coronavirus panic hits shares

Recession risk increases as coronavirus spreads globally, economists say

Investors shy away from risk as coronavirus rattles markets

We don't have any communists running for president so that's not going to happen.

My husband got it first and I took him to the clinic. The nurse looked at me and said "oh honey, I'm so sorry". Despite all of us going on Tamiflu, I came down with symptoms that night and our son the next morning. All three of us lay on the sofa for three days watching tv and none of us remember what we watched.

Omg me too. It came on so quickly—I was in my classroom and didn’t have the physical energy to get out of chair. I wouldn’t wish the flu on my worst enemy!
