@laura-f  I don't consider it negligence. Isn't it genocide?  History will not be kind. No American president has done this.

Some Recovered Coronavirus Patients In Wuhan Are Testing Positive Again : Goats and Soda : NPR

A spate of mysterious second-time infections is calling into question the accuracy of COVID-19 diagnostic tools even as China prepares to lift quarantine measures to allow residents to leave the epicenter of its outbreak next month.

It's also raising concerns of a possible second wave of cases.

Sounds promising:   

Abbott Launches Molecular Point-of-Care Test to Detect Novel Coronavirus 

A five minute point of care coronavirus test could be coming to urgent care clinics next week, and experts say it could be "game-changing."

Abbott Labs expects the tests to be available next week and expects to ramp up manufacturing to deliver 50,000 tests per day.
 
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration issued Emergency Use Authorization to Illinois-based medical device maker Abbott Labs on Friday for a coronavirus test that delivers positive results in as little as five minutes and negative results in 13 minutes, the company said.

The company expects the tests to be available next week and expects to ramp up manufacturing to deliver 50,000 tests per day.

"I am pleased that the FDA authorized Abbott's point-of-care test yesterday. This is big news and will help get more of these tests out in the field rapidly," FDA Commissioner Steve Hahn said in a statement. "We know how important it is to get point-of-care tests out in the field quickly. These tests that can give results quickly can be a game changer in diagnosing COVID-19."

It is like birthing a new baby for the first time, the labor is long and painful but the joy at the new little person is great.

Beautifully said, @starpath. Indeed, we're midwifing a new era. 

Since around the Winter Solstice, I've repeatedly heard "Sedna" spoken into my mind. I really had no idea what it meant initially (I'd read many years ago about the Inuit goddess of the sea, but hadn't retained much of it). I started doing my research, naturally, and its significance is startling.

Sedna is the name given to a dwarf planet in the outer reaches of our solar system, discovered in 2003, about 3x the distance of Neptune from the sun. The astronomer who discovered and named Sedna, also discovered and named Eris, Haumea, and Makemake. The mythology of each of these names is associated with either a fierce feminine warrior (Eris is the female Mars and known for utilizing discord to create needed change) or with deeply feminine and healing powers connected with fertility, babies, nature, and the Earth itself. 

Astrologers accept that the mythological names given to newly discovered celestial bodies are intentional from the cosmic perspective, and that we discover them on Earth as their particular energies are finally entering our collective awareness.

Sedna's orbital period is 11,408 years; that's how long it takes her to complete a solar cycle. The last time she was at her current position, was during the 10th millennium BCE—right about the time most human cultures were transitioning from hunter-gatherer to agrarian. It also marks the very beginning of the Holocene epoch, when rapid population growth and direct human action first began to have an outsized impact on the natural world. 

I could write a lot more about Sedna's return, but I'll end with this: Don't believe anyone who tells you that the energies of a celestial object are responsible for climate change, a linked pandemic, or anything else. (Some astrologer's think this.) I believe that's a gross failure of understanding of cosmic energies and cycles. Every single astrological event brings a new challenge and a new opportunity for development of consciousness. Perhaps in a future not far from now, we will discover that we are a collective being, not just with others of our race, but with the Earth itself. And eventually, with the entire Cosmos. 

The last time Sedna was here, we took off on an exponential course which has culminated in the Industrial, and now, the Information age. 

Sedna's return is saying that we are ready for everything that comes next.

Just saw Cuomo. Trump floated a quarantine of NY and Cuomo explained that meant no mail coming in, no food coming in, no supplies comning in, and he felt strongly that was impractical & that was illegal.

What Trump meant and what is needed is a lockdown. New York is already in self quarantine with essential exceptions . THAT is fine.  His argument is that it would sink the Dow and also bankrupt the people.

He reported he and Trump had a good call, just a few minutes earlier, and T never mentioned a quarantine. I could feel Trump listening as this was a message meant for one person, DJT himself.

I'm almost certain Trump meant lockdown but the incompetenmts aound him fed him the wrong term.

I woke this morning with a picture of a white envelope from the governor of my state. In the return address corner was a picture of my governor with the words printed THE AFTERMATH. I think we should all be thinking in terms of how this will unwind. That said, it also reiterates the predictions here that our local state governments will be more important than THE FEDERAL. Let’s face it. Trump has blown it big time! 
I asked myself about the economy and had another vision. If any of you have ever traveled out west in the United States you know you can travel for miles and not see a car. I was in the wilderness on the gray ribbon road going up a hill and then down a hill repeatedly. Two things stand out here: the wilderness and the rolling of up and down. I think THE WILDERNESS represents the fact that WE HAVE NEVER BEEN HERE. The up and down motion represents exactly what we see in the stock market. I read this site constantly so I’m familiar with some of the predictions. I remember one saying EVERYTHING WILL STOP. I do remember thinking about that wondering what would cause the world TO STOP. Some of my thoughts were aliens coming and making themselves known in mass. Another thought was North Korea would drop The Big One. That was about as far as my thoughts went. This pandemic never crossed my mind. 
Jeanne sometimes has POPUPS. Something that comes quickly without meditation, I assume. Well, I had a POPUP about the VP. I was watching him on television without the sound of course, because I can’t even listen to THEM anymore. The word SKELETOR came into my mind as clear as day. I do remember my kids watching that cartoon a long time ago. I think I even took them to see the movie. I just looked it up on BING. I will quote, “ Skeletor is a fictional character in MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE. He is a SUPERVILLAIN.

PEACE, LOVE, LIGHT TO ALL!
