    Rand Paul had it at the start of the lockdown, and Archived Message

    That was the relevant timeframe. Yes, he has now recovered, but also the lockdown is now essentially finished (at least where Rand Paul lives).

    Ron Paul, around the 1 minute mark: "Right now, the opposition have really relied upon the coronavirus to practice what they believe in, and that is the lockdown, er, er, house arrest! And abuse..disciplining the people! Making the people bow!" And er, would lock themselves in their houses!"

    I am sure his son, though, realizes that he probably spread it a bit during his presymptomatic period, and that due to the lockdown those people in turn were not able to so readily spread it during their presymptomatic periods. Fortunately Ron Paul (who is now in his 80s) was not one of them beause he lives in Texas (I think) while his son lives in DC. And as a medical doctor himself (Ron Paul is), and given his age it seems likely to me that he self-isolated anyway.

    Its a kind of an old discussion point now. I think people who reject it, for whatever reason, are not going to change, which is fine. And people who are still waiting... Its over :-) (talk about reactionary) so they can wait as long as they want now.

    We've essentially moved on to a testing phase now, and a struggle on the streets to recover the economic losses, and more. Both seem worthy to me.
