Didn't we go through this last week with Burr and Kelly Loeffler?
Donald Trump has stake in hydroxychloroquine drugmaker.
"Sen. David Perdue of Georgia bought stock in a company that produces personal protective equipment on January 24, the same day the Senate received a classified briefing on the spread of the novel coronavirus, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported on Monday."

But I am sure that I will hear from the handicappers, the covid 19 deniers, the people with the clinical empathy of actuaries or jaded morticians, deriding the death projections with some weird, twisted, misplaced glee, completely emotionally detached from the human toll.
