We have a new CEO, Sam, who appeared maybe ten weeks ago now. When Sam appeared, we were in the midst of something called the norovirus. Norovirus is the one that’s nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. It’s ugly, and it’s highly contagious. I said to him, “You know, dealing with the norovirus is a blessing in disguise.” And he said, “How so?” I said, “Because you’ll be ahead of the game if the corona comes.
I happen to believe that it’s a mistake to reopen now. I give our mayor here credit. Now our governor, Larry Hogan, last week he said you could start opening up some things, like the beaches. I didn’t pay attention, particularly because I’m not going anywhere. The mayor said, “No, no, no. We’re not opening yet. We are not opening yet until we are sure that it’s not going to lead to more deaths.”
It’s a nasty disease. There’s no question about it. I’m amazed at how really deadly it can be. I was an anesthesiologist; I put you to sleep. I gave you a hell of a discount if I didn’t wake you up. Even being a doctor, I assumed it was like the flu — you get a little sick for a day or two, but then a week later you’re back to tip-top shape. But no, it’s not only working on your lungs, but it hits your heart, hits your kidneys, hits everything.
I am a very proud American. I think the first person I ever voted for was John F. Kennedy. Everybody loved him. I vote every election. I am very saddened by the man who is our president right now. I mean, he thinks he’s a king, and he makes very bad decisions. I got a call from someone just recently: “Would you be willing to answer some questions?” I said, “Sure.” She says, “What do you think of the current administration?” I said, “I think it’s horrible,” and she hung up on me.
We live in a retirement community. We’re in the independent-living section; there’s 150 units. Things in St. Louis are locked down, like New York. We have one resident and one worker who tested positive. That’s it. We don’t know whether it was a housekeeper or what. He or she is quarantined at home. Our nursing-home facility has had more. I have no idea how many, but they had a nurse that had it and then some of the residents got it.
I think people are more about getting rid of Trump. If Cuomo had decided that he would step into the race, that would have been awesome. He would have been a shoo-in, but that’s not going to happen, and I don’t think anybody else at this stage of the game is going to come forward. What is Biden? Seventy-seven? We have a lot of people here who are 80, 90, and even 100. So 77 here is a kid.
