Remember Bloomberg spent $500 million on a failed campaign? And trump democrats cheered for him, praised him 🤪 This is Exactly what oligarchy looks like: Gigantic tax cut, military spending, free maneuver of public opinion but tiny government to serve the public
【佛州大眾報訊3月13日12:00PM】根據巴西Jornal O Dia 報導,巴西總統波索納洛(Jair Bolsonaro)冠狀病毒(COVID-19)檢測呈陽性,為全球首位陽性確診的國家元首。
據悉,波索納洛第一次採檢結果呈現陽性反應,目前正等待第二次採檢結果出爐。星期五稍晚將會有結果。目前巴西總統府官方網站並未公佈此消息,預估是在等第二次檢驗報告。
巴西新聞主任沃恩加藤(Fabio Wajngarten)昨日被確診陽性,包括巴西總統本人在內都接受檢驗。波索納洛上星期曾訪問佛州,期間曾與特朗普總統近距離合照,同桌共享晚宴:另外,波索納洛的新聞主任也曾與特朗普和美國副總統潘斯並肩合照。
特朗普昨日稍早對記者表示,他不擔心被感染。到目前為止,白宮尚未對巴西總統染病的消息做出回應。
邁阿密市長證實感染冠狀病毒
Wendell Potter: During this coronavirus crisis, keep an eye on every move of my old industry: health insurers. Behind the PR spin, they will be doing everything they can to deny care & maintain profits, while making it look like they’re heroes. Here’s what to look for: (1/10) https://twitter.com/wendellpotter/status/1238569855936106496?s=20 The president said that insurers “have agreed to waive all copayments for coronavirus treatments.” Don’t count on that. Insurers’ biggest trade group (“AHIP”) said soon after Trump’s speech that what insurers would waive would be cost-sharing for testing. Not treatment. (2/10) You can be sure Trump’s comment sent shockwaves through the industry. For many, treatment will be way more expensive than testing. If insurers let their enrollees (YOU) off the hook for out-of-pocket expenses related to treatment, their shareholders would be apoplectic. (3/10) Case in point: My old company Cigna says it will cover the cost of COVID-19 testing — but makes no mention of waiving copays or deductibles for *treatment*. Check out their carefully crafted wording here: (4/10) https://cigna.com/individuals-families/health-wellness/topic-disaster-resource-center/coronavirus-public-resources Here’s another: UnitedHealthcare says “your health is important to [them]” and their top “priority.” But if you actually get this coronavirus, good luck with out of pocket costs (5/10)
【佛州大眾報3月13日下午4:00PM】特朗普總統(Donald Trump)星期五(13日)下午,在白宮玫瑰花園公佈會上,正式宣佈全國進入緊急狀態,以應對日益嚴重的冠狀病毒(COVID-19)大流行。
據報導,根據《羅伯特·史坦佛德救災和緊急援助法案》(The Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act ),可允許白宮動員聯邦緊急事務管理局(FEMA),並將聯邦援助直接用於遭受災害和健康危機的州。
特朗普指出,將發放高達500億美元給各州和地方政府來對抗疫情。 據了解,援救資金可紓緩各州和地方政府近75%的緊急費用,這些費用包括緊急工作人員、檢測、醫療用品給付等。
特朗普星期五表示,他還授權衛生與公共服務部長,立即放棄目前法規,盡可能給予醫生和醫院最大的靈活度,來對抗病毒和照顧病人。

Trump officials did sound the coronavirus alarm. They just don’t work there anymore. https://www.politico.com/news/2020/03/12/trump-officials-coronavirus-127742 The dire message coming from former administration officials often stood in contrast to the upbeat narrative emanating from the White House.
