"Hopefully the tests will be coming soon" WTF!

Are the tests an impenetrable state secret? Is there no investigative reporter capable of uncovering the mysterious manufacturing and supply line?

Watch the DOW tomorrow,me thinks those "bargin hunters" have had enough of the BS of supposedly getting a GOOD deal on cheap stock just to watch it shed another $5,10 50 $$$$ the next trading session.

Google DOWN $93+ right now.

The World Health Organization was the first agency to offer tests. Trump said no because by accepting the tests, you have to admit there's a problem.

A Chinese billionaire offered 500,000 tests and 1 million masks! Trump said no again because he wanted all the praise in America's scientists developing their own.
