My friend had a bit of skin cancer and got it cut out.You know how bad economic news, or bad corona-panic news, is bad for Trump?
And they love it!
Well....this article from the WaPo is the opposite....
"I have the coronavirus. So far, it hasn’t been that bad for me.
My treatment has largely consisted of drinking gallons and gallons of Gatorade
I am in my late 60s, and the sickest I’ve ever been was when I had bronchitis several years ago. That laid me out for a few days. This has been much easier: no chills, no body aches. I breathe easily, and I don’t have a stuffy nose. My chest feels tight, and I have coughing spells. If I were at home with similar symptoms, I probably would have gone to work as usual.
I caught the coronavirus on the Diamond Princess, the cruise ship that was quarantined outside Yokohama, Japan, for 14 days, at the end of a 16-day cruise I took with my wife, Jeri. When I left the ship several weeks ago, I felt fine. We had checked our temperatures throughout our quarantine, and Jeri and I had gotten a swab test for the virus. Our temperatures were normal; we’d get the swab results back in 48 hours. But our test results had not arrived when we boarded buses for the airport, where two U.S. government planes waited for us.
The CDC had a quarantine location at the University of Nebraska’s hospital. We arrived on Feb. 17, greeted by a fleet of emergency vehicles and police cars. Officials put me on a stretcher and wheeled me into an ambulance, which made for a very dramatic scene. I easily could have walked myself, despite my exhaustion."

He's fine now.
Cancer is fuck all...I don't know why everyone goes on about it.
