He also has a bum leg or something. And, y'know, he's loving 78 years old.RoboChrist 9000 posted:I missed this. When did it come out Barron is also trash? Still, though: gently caress all of 'em.

I mean, I feel for him, because I have a condition that causes poo poo balance too, but if it's so bad that you're falling down "a fair amount" then you get a cane or a walker or quit drinking so much or something. You don't keep just stumbling into poo poo and bruising yourself to gently caress, that's dumb as poo poo.

Does trump potentially have access to the pfizer vaccine at this point? maybe his poo poo kids wont have it but he's the actual president.

A vaccine relies on herd protection to be effective. Vaccinating one person doesn't guarantee your safety. If that's what you are asking?

Wark Say posted:Wasn't the whole fiasco with how fast he got treated that, due to the fact that he got all them experimental treatments + shitloads of steroids that he was never able to develop his own anti-bodies so that's why they probably have him on even more hosed-up drug cocktails than usual? That's what im getting at aswell. Shouldnt he be more suseptible unless hes being pumped with a cocktail?

Doesn't the cocktail stick around for months? And wouldn't his immune system also develop some amount of antibodies, just not as many as if he hadn't gotten the artificial ones?
|

the idea that he developed none of his own antibodies and is thus just as susceptible as anyone who hasn't been infected was just a blind guess throwaway by fauci that some people have run with. we have no idea whether he can still be infected or not, so personally i'm no that surprised

I mean, he's still a 74-yo man with piss-poor health, god-awful temper, even worse dietary habits, absolutely lackluster physical activity routines (basically golfing for a couple of hours every weekend?), a thoroughly hosed-up circadian rhythm and with cheese knows how many pre-existing conditions, so he was probably on half-a-dozen things at the most conservative estimate aside from his adderall snorting habits already. Even if he was receiving top-of-the-line medical checkups and treatment that a POTUS would probably get by default, he's probably getting slammed with double the amount of pills he was previously getting post-COVID. So even if he's "fine", (y'know, for having a garbo immune system), I wouldn't say he's unlikely to get a Corona-encore.

WAR CRIME GIGOLO posted:I guess im trying to formulate how trump hasnt gotten a 2nd infection. Because recovering from COVID provides you with some period where you are immune to it. Every bit of new research I see about this seems to make the length of time you can assume immunity longer and longer after infection.

WAR CRIME GIGOLO posted:right but that's because of antibodies production, which are non existent if synthetic anti bodies are being used there's no proof of that at all it's pretty unlikely that he had no immune response of his own as he was sick and fighting an infection - on his own - before he ever received external antibodies again, this was a blind guess, there's not a lot of proof for this. yes, an educated experienced professional said it, but it's not like they're titrating trump blood to check on this stuff

WAR CRIME GIGOLO posted:right but that's because of antibodies production, which are non existent if synthetic anti bodies are being used Yeah there's no actual evidence that this happens. Or doesn't happens. He was sick and symptomatic enough he needed oxygen so chances are his body did mount an immune response of its own as well.

While it would be extremely funny to imagine the karmic significance of Donald Trump catching the rona again, not only is there no reason to think that it would suppress natural antibody/B cell immunity, it could even enhance it. Here is a review article from 2015 about mechanisms by which giving someone a big shot of exogenous monoclonals could activate other B cells to form memory.

Whenever I look up the Giuliani thing, it seems to be sourced by a Trump tweet. Is there anything else corroborating it?
