Clint Phillips, the CEO of telehealth company Medici, told Breitbart News Saturday that President Donald Trump’s telehealth reform has given 100 million Americans access to virtual care.
The Trump administration expanded Medicare telehealth coverage that will enable beneficiaries to receive a broader range of healthcare services from their doctors. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) approved a waiver that temporarily pays clinicians to provide telehealth services for beneficiaries. Medicaid recipients could receive access to the plan if a state government would approve the reform.


President Trump also signed a coronavirus-related bill in March that would provide $500 million to help clinicians expand telehealth services.
Phillips said that the reform increased virtual healthcare access for over 100 million Americans.
He said that this is “a big game-changer that the Trump administration has put forward, which is just huge for healthcare innovation, for people getting care. Over 100 million peoplehave access to virtual care because of what the White House and the Trump administration have put out. Doctors can get paid for virtual care for Medicare.”
 
The videos of the JP "Justice" show circulating around the web lead me to believe that her makeup and hair guys were deemed not to be essential, but the bartender still is.
 
Telluride, Colorado testing people for antibodies--I think this is a great idea. My daughter (19) feels pretty sure she had COVID-19 in January before it was in the news much and before the first 'official' case hit the US. I'm sure there had to be COVID-19 in the US much earlier than that.

Why coronavirus antibody testing in one Colorado town could provide a way forward

Testing going on in the Colorado ski town could allow lifting of restrictions.

I saw a suggestion for a possible treatment posted somewhere on the web the other day that mirrors things that have been done with other diseases. Find people who certain to be along those who recovered from the disease and filter antibodies from their blood plasma. The thought occurred to me that they would have to be screened for other blood-transmittable diseases (hepatitis, AIDS, syphilis, etc). Still, there might be something there.

Who still thinks this will be worse than the 2009 swine flu where we kept schools open even though 80% of people infected were under 65 and over 12,000 died in the U.S.?

Bumping the idiot who reads Trump press releases and thinks that's the news. BTW, the 12,000 was for a 12-month period of the swine flu.
You and I have a bet that more than 12,000 will die in exactly half that time, i.e. by 7/31, after which you get outta here.
How stupid can you be to make the above post in mid-March, when we knew everything we knew? Where do you get your information, dummy?

Yep. New York Hospitals are supposed to be trying that method this month. I’m really hoping it goes well.

New York hospitals will trial using antibodies to treat coronavirus cases

It’s a relatively simple means of potentially helping the worst cases.

He can take comfort in the fact that t's TV ratings are up.

Is it time yet for Pence to vote him off the island?

You seem incapable of posting without including at least one offensive remark to insult one group or another. My character here is fictional. What’s your excuse?

I'm going to rename you "McCain" because you pick a fight and then cry like a bitch when you get punched back. Your "character" is lacking.
 

And a fine citizen of Dumbfuckistan you are, informing us that 2x as many whites are killed by cops than blacks, when the population ratio is about 7x as many whites...are you seeking stats to show you're stupid, or a racist, or both? I vote both. Please follow MSK out the door to Loserville. I'll tell you when.
[/QUOTE]

Oh, but that doesn't matter because blacks are harassed 10x as often. Isn't that right? That's certainly the black mantra. Harassed and profiled, right?

You repeating the lie about Joe Biden won't make it true. But, please, continue to do so. By the time the election rolls around people will be so tired of hearing it they won't care one way or the other.

Question: did you bash Obama's stimulus plan? Just curious. And, by the way, I haven't bashed Trump's stimulus. I'm sure there are things in there that I won't like, but at this point people need help so

I have to repeat it because you idiots like to pretend it doesn't exist. Why are you bringing up Trump's "stimulus" plan that isn't stimulus? We don't need a stimulus. This plan is supposed to help people that will starve to death. Too bad all the politicians filled with with agenda pork. That's part of why Trump won. Americans are sick of the bullshit narratives.

Where's my boy MSK at?

The nation's leading expert on infectious diseases and member of the White House's coronavirus task force says the pandemic could kill 100,000 to 200,000 Americans and infect millions.


Dr. Anthony Fauci said based on modeling of the current pace of the coronavirus' spread in the U.S., "between 100,000 and 200,000" people may die from COVID-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus.
