00:00:00.000 Alexa, turn on studio.
00:00:19.820 Hey, everybody.
00:00:22.460 How's it going?
00:00:24.800 Well, welcome to Coffee with Scott Adams.
00:00:27.400 Best part of your day.
00:00:30.000 You know, do you ever feel guilty being in the middle of a pandemic
00:00:36.340 and still finding a way to have a tremendous time every now and then?
00:00:43.280 Oh, yeah, we've got to take this quite seriously.
00:00:46.680 But we can still have our fun, and this is one of those times.
00:00:51.320 Well, welcome to The Simultaneous Hip and Coffee with Scott Adams.
00:00:55.300 And all you need is a cup or mug or a glass of tank or jellis or stye
00:00:58.520 in a canteen jug or flask, a vessel of any kind.
00:01:02.180 Fill it with your favorite liquid.
00:01:04.380 I like coffee.
00:01:05.940 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine hit of the day,
00:01:09.300 the thing that makes everything better, including a pandemic.
00:01:14.100 It's called The Simultaneous Sip.
00:01:16.280 And it happens now.
00:01:18.240 We have a hospital worker here joining in The Sip.
00:01:25.700 Thank you for your service.
00:01:27.740 Normally, I would reserve that for people in our military.
00:01:31.020 But can you make a distinction today between a health care worker on the front line
00:01:36.900 and somebody in the military?
00:01:38.980 Well, you can, but it's a minor distinction.
00:01:44.060 So if you see a doctor or a nurse, thank them.
00:01:47.360 Maybe don't say service.
00:01:48.740 We'll save that for the people in the service.
00:01:51.140 But thank you.
00:01:53.220 So what is special about today?
00:01:59.380 What is special about today?
00:02:01.220 I'm going to call the elbow.
00:02:06.580 Now, the elbow is what I've been telling you for a while is coming.
00:02:11.580 It's the elbow of the curve.
00:02:13.700 I'm not talking about the virus curve.
00:02:15.900 You know what I'm talking about.
00:02:17.480 You're talking about the slow acquisition of information
00:02:21.620 that the humans are doing on a global scale.
00:02:26.500 And I told you that this is largely an information problem.
00:02:29.420 You know, what drugs work against it, we need to know.
00:02:33.080 What types of people are most affected, we need to know.
00:02:35.860 What worked, what didn't work, we need to know.
00:02:39.280 And, of course, who has it, we need to know.
00:02:42.320 If you get the information, the virus is toast.
00:02:46.700 So it has always been an information problem
00:02:49.660 presenting itself as a health care problem
00:02:52.340 because that's the ramifications.
00:02:55.600 But I told you from the start,
00:02:58.620 if there's one thing we're good at,
00:03:01.660 humans, hashtag human,
00:03:04.960 we're good at finding information
00:03:07.440 and we're good at doing things when we're all on the same page.
00:03:10.960 The only thing that ever slows us down
00:03:12.780 is when we're not on the same team.
00:03:15.380 That kind of stopped this week.
00:03:17.920 We're kind of all on the same team at the moment.
00:03:21.120 We'll deal with China later,
00:03:23.180 but at the moment,
00:03:24.800 same team.
00:03:26.020 Enemy of my enemy.
00:03:27.020 And the elbow looks like it's happening.
00:03:33.100 Now, some would say
00:03:35.220 that you still need some kind of an omen.
00:03:39.080 Wouldn't you like that?
00:03:40.420 Wouldn't you like that there were some kind of a sign?
00:03:45.060 If you're a believer, you'd say,
00:03:46.940 well, there's God
00:03:47.800 telling me everything's going to be okay.
00:03:50.920 If you're not a believer,
00:03:53.080 maybe you like the simulation.
00:03:54.740 Maybe you start seeing coincidences.
00:03:57.120 And you say,
00:03:57.780 ah, the simulation is winking at me.
00:04:01.200 Now, I don't think any of these things
00:04:02.580 pass any kind of scientific rigor.
00:04:05.840 But sometimes doesn't it feel good
00:04:07.620 when you just see something
00:04:10.200 that just says,
00:04:12.120 I think everything's going to be okay.
00:04:13.920 Now,
00:04:15.760 I'm not going to lie to you.
00:04:18.340 Next two weeks
00:04:19.460 might be a little bit rugged
00:04:21.360 for you
00:04:22.640 and for the people who catch the virus.
00:04:25.120 It's going to be horrific.
00:04:28.000 That's going to happen.
00:04:30.200 You don't have to
00:04:31.300 stress about
00:04:32.520 should it happen,
00:04:33.580 how do we stop it.
00:04:35.260 Next two weeks are going to be rough.
00:04:37.140 That's just the way it's going to be.
00:04:39.800 But
00:04:40.200 there might be some good things coming
00:04:43.600 and I'm going to talk about them.
00:04:45.700 But first,
00:04:46.200 I want to give you
00:04:46.880 just a simple tip
00:04:49.200 you can try at home.
00:04:50.860 Now,
00:04:51.420 this may sound silly,
00:04:53.820 but try it.
00:04:55.580 If you're feeling
00:04:56.580 a little bit anxious
00:04:57.980 about all this stuff,
00:04:59.700 and of course you do.
00:05:00.840 Of course you do.
00:05:02.140 The strongest person in the world
00:05:03.960 is going to feel
00:05:04.540 a little bit anxious today.
00:05:05.820 Here's a little tip.
00:05:09.060 And don't laugh at this
00:05:10.100 because it actually works.
00:05:12.000 Find a nice,
00:05:13.080 soft blanket
00:05:14.380 and wrap it around yourself.
00:05:18.460 And just see how it feels.
00:05:19.680 Now the softness
00:05:20.440 is a big part of it
00:05:21.300 because it's on your arms
00:05:22.400 and a nice fleece
00:05:24.060 kind of blanket.
00:05:25.340 And you're just going to feel
00:05:26.520 comforted.
00:05:28.620 It's just a physical thing.
00:05:29.960 It's not even psychological,
00:05:31.340 I don't think.
00:05:31.860 I think
00:05:32.120 we're designed
00:05:33.720 so there's a nice,
00:05:34.500 warm embrace
00:05:35.280 of something soft,
00:05:36.640 even if it's just a blanket.
00:05:38.660 It's going to make you
00:05:39.560 feel better.
00:05:41.040 And I,
00:05:41.740 so I got,
00:05:43.700 I actually ordered
00:05:44.640 a blanket
00:05:45.080 for only this purpose.
00:05:48.660 So,
00:05:50.100 I put on my blanket
00:05:51.280 yesterday,
00:05:56.620 yesterday,
00:05:56.720 yesterday,
00:05:56.780 and it totally
00:06:02.520 feels better.
00:06:05.200 This is a real thing.
00:06:07.040 Just find a nice,
00:06:08.240 soft blanket
00:06:08.640 during the day.
00:06:10.860 Just wrap yourself up in it.
00:06:12.520 I swear to God,
00:06:13.140 I feel great right now.
00:06:15.400 It's not a joke.
00:06:16.800 I'm going to keep this up.
00:06:19.720 But let's talk about
00:06:20.640 what's happened.
00:06:22.200 Most of you saw the clip
00:06:23.460 from Tucker Carlson's show
00:06:25.500 last night
00:06:26.080 in which it was
00:06:27.700 being announced
00:06:28.400 that there's
00:06:30.240 a cure.
00:06:33.920 Now,
00:06:34.740 do we believe it yet?
00:06:39.240 You know,
00:06:40.140 it's in the,
00:06:40.880 it's in the category
00:06:41.700 of things
00:06:42.260 one should not
00:06:44.320 automatically believe.
00:06:46.540 All right.
00:06:46.900 So,
00:06:47.740 anytime somebody says,
00:06:49.000 hey,
00:06:49.140 we studied 40 people,
00:06:51.300 which is not
00:06:52.260 a gigantic sample,
00:06:54.700 and 100% of them
00:06:56.400 were cured
00:06:57.000 with chloroquine,
00:06:58.760 the drug that
00:06:59.360 I've been talking about
00:07:00.160 for a while,
00:07:01.140 you know,
00:07:01.380 the rumors have been
00:07:02.360 that it was effective.
00:07:04.220 So,
00:07:04.460 apparently,
00:07:04.780 there's a French study now
00:07:06.180 that allegedly,
00:07:09.020 and I'm not a scientist,
00:07:10.380 and I haven't looked
00:07:11.060 at the study,
00:07:11.820 and I haven't reproduced it,
00:07:13.260 so don't take my word for it,
00:07:14.560 but this is the report.
00:07:17.560 It's 100% effective
00:07:19.500 at curing
00:07:20.600 the coronavirus
00:07:21.580 after you have it.
00:07:24.680 Now,
00:07:25.400 if you missed that,
00:07:27.140 let me say it again.
00:07:29.480 We just completed,
00:07:31.000 just completed
00:07:31.660 a French study
00:07:32.880 from one of the most,
00:07:34.420 I guess,
00:07:35.800 one of the most famous
00:07:36.540 and talented
00:07:37.480 scientists
00:07:38.840 in this exact field.
00:07:40.880 It's been accepted
00:07:41.960 for publication,
00:07:42.820 so it's,
00:07:43.820 so now it's passed
00:07:44.980 at least that step.
00:07:45.800 And they tested
00:07:47.560 40 people
00:07:48.260 and they had
00:07:48.600 a 100% success rate.
00:07:51.400 Now,
00:07:51.560 I guess the math
00:07:52.320 on this,
00:07:54.000 assuming that
00:07:55.000 others look at it
00:07:55.960 and they agree
00:07:56.420 that the test
00:07:57.380 was,
00:07:57.840 you know,
00:07:58.640 organized correctly,
00:07:59.700 and I think people
00:08:00.280 are saying it was,
00:08:01.820 apparently the math
00:08:02.660 on this,
00:08:03.060 even though it was
00:08:03.480 only 40 people,
00:08:04.980 the odds of it
00:08:06.560 not being
00:08:07.500 real
00:08:09.040 are very close
00:08:11.760 to zero.
00:08:12.280 and apparently
00:08:13.960 that almost
00:08:14.600 never happens.
00:08:16.200 And as Tucker
00:08:17.100 asked his guest,
00:08:18.560 you know,
00:08:19.340 like,
00:08:20.220 you know,
00:08:20.440 Tucker was
00:08:20.920 appropriately
00:08:22.660 skeptical
00:08:23.700 and amazed
00:08:24.620 at the same time.
00:08:26.740 Watching Tucker's face
00:08:28.400 when this scientist,
00:08:30.380 who's completely
00:08:31.120 credible,
00:08:31.740 by the way,
00:08:32.300 you know,
00:08:32.560 a known,
00:08:33.220 credible scientist,
00:08:34.240 saying that
00:08:35.240 the coronavirus
00:08:36.080 has a 100% cure
00:08:37.780 and it's a pill
00:08:39.180 we already make
00:08:40.180 and it's well-known
00:08:41.080 and it's safe
00:08:41.800 and it's already
00:08:42.700 been used
00:08:43.200 in other countries.
00:08:44.960 And Tucker
00:08:45.360 is hearing this
00:08:46.320 and the look
00:08:48.140 on his face,
00:08:50.780 it was worth
00:08:51.600 just watching
00:08:52.960 the whole show
00:08:53.420 just for that moment
00:08:54.260 because he was
00:08:55.560 having the same
00:08:56.160 experience that
00:08:56.840 all of us
00:08:57.280 were having at home
00:08:58.160 listening to it
00:08:59.020 for the first time,
00:09:00.140 which is,
00:09:01.760 what?
00:09:03.560 I don't know
00:09:04.380 if I'm hearing
00:09:04.840 this right.
00:09:06.420 Is that possible?
00:09:08.260 That there's
00:09:09.100 a safe,
00:09:09.840 effective,
00:09:10.460 widely available
00:09:11.180 pill
00:09:11.580 that's already
00:09:12.600 on pharmacies
00:09:13.320 that's 100% cure?
00:09:15.500 Apparently,
00:09:16.100 there's only
00:09:16.620 one other time
00:09:17.340 that we've
00:09:17.720 cured a virus.
00:09:23.380 Yeah,
00:09:24.040 so there's
00:09:24.960 only one other time
00:09:25.780 that humans
00:09:26.260 have learned
00:09:26.960 how to actually
00:09:28.320 cure a virus
00:09:29.220 and so this
00:09:30.800 would be the second
00:09:31.660 time if it's real.
00:09:32.980 So we have
00:09:33.720 some precedent
00:09:34.400 that you can
00:09:35.580 actually cure a virus
00:09:36.700 with the right
00:09:37.480 meds.
00:09:38.020 I think
00:09:38.220 they do it
00:09:39.080 for
00:09:39.380 you'll remind
00:09:42.000 me,
00:09:42.280 whatever the
00:09:42.760 problem is.
00:09:44.440 So here's
00:09:44.920 some other
00:09:45.220 things coming
00:09:46.260 down the line.
00:09:50.640 First of all,
00:09:53.600 there's some
00:09:54.460 troubling
00:09:56.540 suggestion
00:09:57.500 that China
00:09:59.100 knew this
00:10:00.020 and was
00:10:00.900 maybe not
00:10:02.760 as forthcoming
00:10:04.300 as they could
00:10:05.220 have been
00:10:05.580 with sharing
00:10:06.920 the information.
00:10:09.540 Now,
00:10:10.540 this is not
00:10:12.200 yet the time
00:10:13.100 to look
00:10:13.480 backwards.
00:10:14.780 So just put
00:10:15.380 a tack
00:10:16.240 in this one.
00:10:17.660 A question
00:10:18.520 we're going
00:10:18.960 to ask
00:10:19.520 is did
00:10:20.820 China know
00:10:21.700 this worked,
00:10:22.440 I mean actually
00:10:23.060 know it works,
00:10:24.980 long before
00:10:25.940 they made it
00:10:27.140 widely available
00:10:27.900 to other countries
00:10:28.820 at risk?
00:10:29.460 risk.
00:10:30.560 It's a pretty
00:10:31.360 big question.
00:10:33.260 That's a real
00:10:33.780 big question.
00:10:34.860 Because,
00:10:35.180 you know,
00:10:35.480 I'm going to
00:10:38.380 stick with this
00:10:38.960 and I'm going to
00:10:39.460 say it a million
00:10:40.140 times in the
00:10:40.900 next year.
00:10:41.340 I have no
00:10:43.300 patience for
00:10:45.440 people who
00:10:45.960 look at other
00:10:46.740 people operating
00:10:47.980 in an emergency
00:10:49.240 trying to do
00:10:49.900 the best they
00:10:50.400 can and then
00:10:51.620 sitting on the
00:10:52.240 sidelines and
00:10:52.880 saying you
00:10:53.200 should have
00:10:53.480 done it sooner.
00:10:54.860 You're going
00:10:55.320 to get sick
00:10:55.920 of me saying
00:10:56.540 the idiots
00:10:58.080 in the room
00:10:58.680 are the ones
00:10:59.120 who said it
00:10:59.620 should have
00:10:59.960 been done
00:11:00.360 sooner.
00:11:01.740 But I'm
00:11:02.240 going to
00:11:02.360 make an
00:11:02.640 exception.
00:11:04.360 And the
00:11:04.960 argument there
00:11:06.340 is that
00:11:06.720 everything
00:11:07.060 that's good
00:11:07.900 should have
00:11:08.440 been done
00:11:08.780 sooner.
00:11:09.820 So if
00:11:10.200 you're making
00:11:10.540 a comment
00:11:10.980 that something
00:11:11.640 should have
00:11:12.080 been done
00:11:12.580 sooner,
00:11:13.240 it has no
00:11:14.060 meaning.
00:11:15.300 Because that
00:11:16.000 applies to
00:11:16.680 all things
00:11:17.260 good.
00:11:18.120 Should have
00:11:18.480 been done
00:11:18.800 sooner.
00:11:19.700 Hey,
00:11:20.320 why weren't
00:11:20.860 you smarter?
00:11:21.440 Why didn't
00:11:21.720 you see it
00:11:22.120 coming?
00:11:22.380 Why didn't
00:11:22.640 you work
00:11:22.940 harder?
00:11:23.360 There's no
00:11:23.880 exception to
00:11:24.460 that.
00:11:24.640 It always
00:11:24.920 should have
00:11:25.200 been done
00:11:25.540 sooner.
00:11:26.780 But I'm
00:11:27.320 going to
00:11:27.460 make an
00:11:27.780 exception in
00:11:28.420 the case
00:11:28.880 where it
00:11:29.960 was intentionally
00:11:30.920 withheld.
00:11:32.620 Now,
00:11:32.900 I'm not
00:11:33.140 going to
00:11:33.340 say that
00:11:33.700 that's the
00:11:34.160 case.
00:11:35.340 But if
00:11:35.900 it turns
00:11:36.260 out that
00:11:36.900 China maybe
00:11:38.040 knew more
00:11:38.660 than they
00:11:39.060 shared,
00:11:39.480 and it
00:11:40.520 was
00:11:40.680 intentional,
00:11:42.140 just
00:11:42.900 speculating,
00:11:44.120 wouldn't
00:11:45.480 you like to
00:11:45.940 know that?
00:11:47.300 So if
00:11:48.300 that's the
00:11:48.720 case,
00:11:49.560 I wouldn't
00:11:50.080 feel the
00:11:50.500 same about
00:11:51.600 a delay if
00:11:52.360 it's
00:11:52.520 intentional,
00:11:53.200 of course.
00:11:53.780 some other
00:11:55.880 good news.
00:11:58.640 You know,
00:11:59.580 this is
00:12:00.240 sort of a
00:12:00.680 wild card
00:12:01.360 thing,
00:12:03.200 but it
00:12:03.640 actually might
00:12:04.260 be important.
00:12:05.120 One of the
00:12:05.500 things we're
00:12:05.920 going to
00:12:06.120 learn,
00:12:06.880 even though
00:12:07.480 we didn't
00:12:07.840 want to
00:12:08.180 learn it,
00:12:09.000 is what
00:12:09.840 happens to
00:12:10.520 CO2 and
00:12:11.580 maybe,
00:12:12.780 potentially,
00:12:13.320 a little bit
00:12:13.700 more about
00:12:14.260 climate change
00:12:15.220 risk,
00:12:15.740 et cetera,
00:12:16.600 et cetera,
00:12:17.940 based on
00:12:19.480 the fact
00:12:21.800 that we
00:12:22.160 reduced air
00:12:23.060 pollution
00:12:23.400 substantially,
00:12:25.120 and probably
00:12:25.500 will last a
00:12:26.200 month.
00:12:27.060 So will
00:12:27.440 the scientists
00:12:28.500 be able to
00:12:29.520 take advantage
00:12:30.320 of the
00:12:32.060 rarest thing
00:12:33.240 that could
00:12:33.600 happen,
00:12:34.040 which is the
00:12:34.740 economy of
00:12:35.680 the world
00:12:36.040 just stopping
00:12:36.620 at the same
00:12:37.140 time,
00:12:38.200 and then
00:12:38.520 watching the
00:12:39.040 air pollution
00:12:39.460 drop,
00:12:40.660 and what
00:12:41.120 do we
00:12:41.320 learn?
00:12:42.360 Now,
00:12:42.700 I'm not a
00:12:43.260 scientist,
00:12:43.980 so your
00:12:44.800 first instinct
00:12:45.880 would be,
00:12:47.060 well,
00:12:47.280 maybe nothing,
00:12:48.440 because it's
00:12:48.980 a short
00:12:49.360 period,
00:12:50.060 and it's
00:12:50.540 hard to
00:12:50.840 untangle
00:12:51.340 all the
00:12:51.740 variables,
00:12:52.900 so maybe
00:12:53.400 nothing,
00:12:54.340 because CO2
00:12:55.120 is a
00:12:55.460 long-term
00:12:56.140 problem,
00:12:56.740 it's not
00:12:57.200 something that
00:12:58.000 happened this
00:12:58.400 month,
00:12:59.220 but I'm
00:13:00.100 not so
00:13:00.480 sure.
00:13:01.900 I feel as
00:13:02.780 if that
00:13:03.360 might be
00:13:03.960 enough data
00:13:04.620 for,
00:13:05.520 remember,
00:13:06.280 scientists
00:13:07.160 are smarter
00:13:07.840 than you,
00:13:08.720 they're smarter
00:13:09.220 than me,
00:13:10.360 so just
00:13:10.880 because I
00:13:11.260 can't figure
00:13:11.680 out how to
00:13:12.100 take advantage
00:13:12.620 of that
00:13:12.900 information
00:13:13.300 doesn't mean
00:13:13.760 somebody can't,
00:13:15.040 and I
00:13:15.860 would love to
00:13:16.340 know if we
00:13:16.960 actually
00:13:17.340 experience
00:13:17.920 anything like
00:13:18.800 some seasonal
00:13:20.540 coolness.
00:13:22.200 Now,
00:13:22.340 in theory,
00:13:24.060 so here's
00:13:24.620 my question,
00:13:25.420 if pollution
00:13:26.020 goes out of
00:13:26.660 the air
00:13:26.960 kind of
00:13:27.840 quickly,
00:13:28.340 and we
00:13:28.580 watch that
00:13:29.020 already happen,
00:13:30.320 so Wuhan
00:13:30.940 was,
00:13:31.940 you know,
00:13:32.220 super polluted
00:13:33.160 and now it's
00:13:34.460 not,
00:13:35.560 you know,
00:13:35.940 they might be
00:13:36.380 back to work,
00:13:37.060 but at least
00:13:37.520 there was a
00:13:37.860 period when it
00:13:38.420 wasn't,
00:13:39.200 so we know
00:13:39.940 that the air
00:13:40.460 clears pretty
00:13:42.060 darn quickly,
00:13:43.480 but what I
00:13:44.320 don't know,
00:13:45.000 and I'd have to
00:13:45.500 ask some
00:13:46.080 scientists,
00:13:46.860 does that
00:13:47.300 mean the
00:13:47.620 CO2
00:13:48.300 clears?
00:13:50.460 And here's
00:13:51.080 the dumbest
00:13:51.900 question you're
00:13:52.460 ever going to
00:13:52.860 hear,
00:13:53.500 but I have
00:13:53.960 no shame,
00:13:54.560 so I'm
00:13:54.760 just going to
00:13:55.080 ask it
00:13:55.420 anyway.
00:13:56.600 Is there
00:13:56.980 such a
00:13:57.460 thing as,
00:13:59.340 you know,
00:14:00.040 I'll just
00:14:00.520 ask,
00:14:01.820 if every
00:14:02.740 10 years
00:14:04.800 we just
00:14:05.340 decided to
00:14:06.700 shut down
00:14:07.240 all industry
00:14:08.000 and travel
00:14:08.740 for two
00:14:09.940 weeks,
00:14:10.340 I'm just
00:14:11.080 brainstorming
00:14:12.220 here,
00:14:12.620 don't take
00:14:13.140 this too
00:14:13.520 seriously,
00:14:14.320 and brought
00:14:15.080 our pollution
00:14:15.600 down to
00:14:16.120 zero,
00:14:17.620 would those
00:14:18.240 gains be
00:14:19.700 any way
00:14:20.720 permanent?
00:14:22.120 In other
00:14:22.500 words,
00:14:22.840 could you
00:14:23.100 just stop
00:14:23.700 doing everything
00:14:24.360 for a while
00:14:24.980 and let the
00:14:25.980 CO2,
00:14:26.760 you know,
00:14:27.360 settle,
00:14:27.960 and how
00:14:28.340 long would
00:14:28.720 that take?
00:14:30.080 Because
00:14:30.360 pollution went
00:14:31.060 out of the
00:14:31.360 air pretty
00:14:31.740 quickly,
00:14:32.640 but does
00:14:33.060 the CO2,
00:14:34.060 because of
00:14:34.440 its nature,
00:14:35.120 hang around
00:14:35.580 longer,
00:14:36.540 even after
00:14:37.100 you stop
00:14:37.880 polluting?
00:14:38.460 I don't
00:14:38.660 know the
00:14:38.860 answer to
00:14:39.120 that question.
00:14:40.340 But even
00:14:40.840 if there's
00:14:41.240 a small
00:14:41.680 change,
00:14:42.920 don't the
00:14:43.440 scientists
00:14:43.820 get an
00:14:44.860 incredible
00:14:45.520 amount of
00:14:46.240 new insight
00:14:47.880 just based
00:14:48.760 on this
00:14:49.120 unique
00:14:49.460 situation?
00:14:50.360 I'll just
00:14:50.800 put it out
00:14:51.160 there as
00:14:51.400 a question.
00:14:52.380 I think
00:14:52.880 it's a
00:14:53.200 potentially
00:14:53.800 tremendous
00:14:55.280 benefit,
00:14:56.300 but it's
00:14:56.820 a maybe.
00:14:57.900 Here's some
00:14:58.340 other good
00:14:58.660 news.
00:15:01.080 Julia
00:15:01.640 Cheek,
00:15:02.140 I guess
00:15:02.400 she's
00:15:02.840 founder of
00:15:03.820 a company
00:15:04.120 called
00:15:04.440 Everly
00:15:04.820 Well,
00:15:05.880 that today
00:15:07.500 they announced
00:15:08.220 she's calling
00:15:09.760 it her
00:15:10.020 proudest
00:15:10.500 day ever,
00:15:11.240 and I
00:15:11.640 would say
00:15:12.600 that might
00:15:13.000 be the
00:15:13.280 case.
00:15:14.280 She says
00:15:14.820 we're
00:15:15.060 launching
00:15:15.380 the first
00:15:15.880 solution
00:15:16.360 in the
00:15:16.720 U.S.
00:15:17.080 to get
00:15:17.400 tested and
00:15:18.220 diagnosed
00:15:18.760 for COVID-19
00:15:19.940 from your
00:15:20.980 home on
00:15:23.120 Monday.
00:15:24.740 So this
00:15:25.120 Monday,
00:15:26.660 can you
00:15:27.400 believe this?
00:15:28.700 By Monday,
00:15:30.980 you know,
00:15:31.640 there won't
00:15:31.880 be many of
00:15:32.400 them,
00:15:32.580 I assume,
00:15:32.920 but I guess
00:15:33.300 they're
00:15:33.460 cranking up
00:15:33.900 production.
00:15:34.900 By Monday,
00:15:35.580 we'll have
00:15:35.920 a home test
00:15:36.660 kit for the
00:15:37.340 coronavirus.
00:15:38.220 And it's
00:15:40.680 kind of
00:15:41.020 come down
00:15:41.480 to this.
00:15:46.140 It's a
00:15:46.660 contest
00:15:47.140 between
00:15:47.760 viral spread
00:15:51.020 and reproduction
00:15:52.040 versus
00:15:53.940 American
00:15:54.800 manufacturing.
00:15:56.960 You could
00:15:57.820 say world
00:15:58.300 manufacturing,
00:15:59.140 but I think
00:15:59.540 people are
00:16:00.880 going to be
00:16:01.160 keeping whatever
00:16:01.880 they can produce
00:16:02.600 to themselves
00:16:03.240 for the
00:16:03.760 short run.
00:16:04.480 so if
00:16:05.500 suddenly
00:16:05.860 some
00:16:06.740 country
00:16:07.080 could
00:16:07.340 produce
00:16:07.720 a lot
00:16:08.020 of
00:16:08.140 N95
00:16:08.620 masks,
00:16:09.340 they
00:16:09.440 probably
00:16:09.660 need
00:16:09.880 to
00:16:10.000 keep
00:16:10.240 them.
00:16:11.200 I don't
00:16:11.740 know if
00:16:11.980 they
00:16:12.080 could produce
00:16:12.540 enough to
00:16:12.940 also export
00:16:13.780 right away.
00:16:14.680 So most
00:16:15.120 countries are
00:16:15.720 sort of on
00:16:16.500 their own
00:16:17.060 in the
00:16:17.940 short run.
00:16:18.500 In the long
00:16:18.940 run, of course,
00:16:19.480 they'll be
00:16:19.760 sharing, but
00:16:20.220 in the short
00:16:20.580 run, I
00:16:20.960 think the
00:16:21.260 U.S.
00:16:22.280 probably needs
00:16:22.860 to make
00:16:23.160 its own
00:16:23.440 masks pretty
00:16:24.420 quickly,
00:16:24.960 probably needs
00:16:25.500 to make
00:16:25.760 its own
00:16:26.040 test kits
00:16:26.560 pretty
00:16:26.880 quickly.
00:16:28.420 And so
00:16:28.680 it's come
00:16:29.060 down to a
00:16:29.440 contest, a
00:16:31.200 fair fight.
00:16:32.800 It wasn't a
00:16:33.600 fair fight at
00:16:34.280 first.
00:16:34.640 We had no
00:16:35.040 weapons, we
00:16:35.580 had no
00:16:35.880 tools, we
00:16:36.400 had no
00:16:36.660 information.
00:16:37.600 It was a
00:16:38.060 sneak attack.
00:16:39.000 Boom, virus
00:16:40.340 is on us.
00:16:42.160 But now
00:16:42.720 we've had a
00:16:43.200 little time to
00:16:43.860 regroup.
00:16:44.800 We did a
00:16:45.360 strategic
00:16:45.920 retreat, we
00:16:47.620 divided to
00:16:48.440 conquer, and
00:16:49.660 then the
00:16:49.980 smartest people
00:16:50.700 in the
00:16:50.920 world have
00:16:51.520 been working
00:16:51.940 on essentially
00:16:52.760 a global
00:16:53.720 Manhattan
00:16:54.320 project to
00:16:55.740 find every
00:16:56.360 possible
00:16:56.960 weapon you
00:16:57.520 could against
00:16:58.060 this virus.
00:17:00.120 And it
00:17:00.740 looks like
00:17:01.100 they found
00:17:01.560 it.
00:17:03.080 It looks
00:17:03.720 like they
00:17:04.040 found it.
00:17:05.000 Now, having
00:17:05.600 that, the
00:17:07.840 cure, if we
00:17:09.380 can call it
00:17:09.900 that, there's
00:17:10.920 still an
00:17:11.340 asterisk on
00:17:12.000 this, so
00:17:12.400 don't, if
00:17:13.640 things change,
00:17:14.980 don't say I
00:17:15.500 didn't tell
00:17:15.900 you it
00:17:16.260 couldn't,
00:17:17.620 because it
00:17:18.160 could, but
00:17:18.940 it's looking
00:17:19.460 really good,
00:17:20.320 I've got to
00:17:20.680 say.
00:17:21.680 And the
00:17:22.240 other thing
00:17:22.620 you need is
00:17:23.020 the test
00:17:23.400 kits.
00:17:24.560 So if you
00:17:25.020 can massively
00:17:25.540 test and
00:17:26.280 you've got
00:17:26.560 a pill
00:17:26.860 that you
00:17:27.140 know that
00:17:27.440 works, and
00:17:28.840 you've got a
00:17:29.240 strategy of
00:17:30.080 delay and
00:17:31.160 separation,
00:17:33.700 we are on
00:17:35.720 the cusp
00:17:37.480 of one of
00:17:40.080 the greatest
00:17:40.720 American
00:17:42.080 achievements of
00:17:42.960 all time.
00:17:44.600 I might be
00:17:45.500 wrong, I
00:17:46.740 could be
00:17:47.020 wrong, but
00:17:48.900 if I were
00:17:50.700 to sort of
00:17:51.460 straight line
00:17:52.060 finding this
00:17:52.320 where it's
00:17:52.740 going, I
00:17:54.540 think by
00:17:55.700 the end
00:17:56.040 of the
00:17:56.340 summer, the
00:17:58.160 United States
00:17:59.160 full strategy,
00:18:01.400 if you look
00:18:01.760 at it from
00:18:02.200 closing the
00:18:03.260 airports, which
00:18:03.920 was the first
00:18:04.760 action, I
00:18:05.320 guess, to
00:18:06.620 delaying, to
00:18:08.520 building tools,
00:18:10.960 learning from
00:18:11.420 the other
00:18:11.720 countries, and
00:18:12.920 then once we
00:18:14.040 have the
00:18:14.340 weapons, and
00:18:15.660 right now we've
00:18:16.540 identified the
00:18:17.380 weapons, we
00:18:18.180 know this
00:18:19.480 drug, it
00:18:20.880 would be
00:18:21.200 insane if
00:18:22.020 our government
00:18:22.980 is not
00:18:24.360 working hard
00:18:25.340 to produce
00:18:25.920 this drug
00:18:26.500 already.
00:18:27.980 You know, if
00:18:28.860 you've got
00:18:29.220 that one
00:18:29.800 gold standard
00:18:31.620 kind of good
00:18:32.460 test that
00:18:33.700 says it
00:18:34.060 worked 100%
00:18:34.920 of the time,
00:18:35.940 you should be
00:18:36.900 cranking that
00:18:37.580 out.
00:18:38.920 You know, if
00:18:40.140 by the end
00:18:40.980 of today you've
00:18:42.640 not heard your
00:18:43.420 government say,
00:18:44.800 well, just in
00:18:45.540 case, you know,
00:18:46.260 we're still making
00:18:47.260 sure this works,
00:18:48.240 but just in
00:18:49.580 case, we just
00:18:50.400 put a billion
00:18:51.220 dollars on it.
00:18:52.440 We just dropped
00:18:53.720 a wad of cash
00:18:55.060 and the U.S.
00:18:56.760 Army and the
00:18:58.200 full weight of
00:18:59.160 American
00:19:00.120 manufacturing on
00:19:01.260 it, and we're
00:19:02.120 going to make
00:19:02.540 the hell out of
00:19:04.000 this pill.
00:19:04.760 It's the
00:19:05.320 chloroquine, I
00:19:06.280 guess, and
00:19:06.660 there's a
00:19:07.680 stronger version
00:19:08.280 as well.
00:19:09.400 We're going to
00:19:09.900 make the hell
00:19:10.360 out of this
00:19:10.760 pill, and I
00:19:12.600 guess there's
00:19:12.920 another one that
00:19:13.480 goes well with
00:19:14.020 it, just in
00:19:16.760 case.
00:19:18.240 If you don't
00:19:19.120 hear that by
00:19:19.680 the end of
00:19:20.200 today, you
00:19:21.780 should lose
00:19:22.280 some confidence
00:19:22.900 in your
00:19:23.320 government.
00:19:23.760 I'm going to
00:19:23.960 be honest, but
00:19:25.800 I think you
00:19:26.240 might, and I'm
00:19:28.220 actively trying to
00:19:29.640 get that answer,
00:19:30.520 so I'm using
00:19:31.340 what contacts I
00:19:32.600 have to see if
00:19:33.780 somebody can tell
00:19:34.480 me, is there
00:19:35.520 a specific
00:19:37.000 manufacturing plant
00:19:39.440 that we're
00:19:41.620 putting the
00:19:42.120 full weight of
00:19:43.120 the United
00:19:43.640 States power,
00:19:45.580 money, arms
00:19:48.440 and legs and
00:19:49.260 brains into
00:19:50.400 it, and that
00:19:51.000 it's happening
00:19:51.400 right now.
00:19:52.440 If you don't
00:19:53.020 hear that by
00:19:53.420 the end of
00:19:53.780 the day, you
00:19:54.120 should lose
00:19:54.480 some confidence.
00:19:55.720 And I don't
00:19:56.040 mean that what
00:19:57.280 they tell you is
00:19:58.160 that it's
00:19:58.640 working great,
00:20:00.240 because it's
00:20:00.800 like everything,
00:20:01.460 right?
00:20:01.960 Day one of
00:20:02.800 doing anything
00:20:03.260 is going to
00:20:03.640 be just nothing
00:20:04.560 but mistakes.
00:20:05.900 But if we're
00:20:06.560 not putting the
00:20:07.180 energy into
00:20:07.860 it, you could
00:20:09.940 reasonably lose
00:20:11.040 some confidence
00:20:11.640 in your
00:20:12.000 government, and
00:20:12.780 nobody would
00:20:13.240 say that you
00:20:13.760 were being
00:20:14.080 unreasonable.
00:20:14.600 end of
00:20:15.760 today.
00:20:16.440 Today is
00:20:16.840 the day.
00:20:17.580 The country
00:20:18.340 needs to
00:20:18.740 hear it.
00:20:19.960 Now, how
00:20:22.200 good is the
00:20:22.700 news today?
00:20:23.800 Let's check
00:20:24.380 my stock
00:20:24.840 market.
00:20:27.300 Green,
00:20:28.140 green,
00:20:28.720 green,
00:20:29.240 green,
00:20:29.720 green,
00:20:30.460 green,
00:20:31.220 green,
00:20:31.780 green,
00:20:32.660 green,
00:20:33.440 green,
00:20:33.840 green,
00:20:34.520 green,
00:20:35.780 green,
00:20:36.500 green.
00:20:37.920 It's all
00:20:38.660 green, baby.
00:20:40.080 It's all
00:20:40.440 green.
00:20:41.480 We're going
00:20:42.080 weapons hot.
00:20:43.720 Not yet.
00:20:45.160 Not yet.
00:20:46.780 Don't have
00:20:47.280 enough of them.
00:20:48.340 But we know
00:20:48.760 the weapons
00:20:49.200 now.
00:20:50.420 And when
00:20:52.060 humans start
00:20:55.580 working, it
00:20:57.040 can be an
00:20:57.440 amazing thing.
00:20:58.180 Here are some
00:20:58.520 more things we
00:20:59.260 know.
00:20:59.640 Over in
00:21:00.080 Belgium, they've
00:21:01.620 adjusted their
00:21:02.380 protocols.
00:21:03.440 Now, what I'm
00:21:04.380 going to tell you
00:21:04.820 now is from
00:21:05.560 a guy I don't
00:21:07.080 know on the
00:21:07.580 internet.
00:21:08.620 So if this is
00:21:09.440 wrong, well,
00:21:10.400 you know,
00:21:10.720 I'm sorry.
00:21:12.380 But it
00:21:13.360 sounds like
00:21:13.900 something that's
00:21:14.500 right.
00:21:16.260 So, you
00:21:17.860 know, that's
00:21:18.340 the best I
00:21:18.800 can tell you.
00:21:19.280 It sounds
00:21:19.700 like it's
00:21:20.100 true that
00:21:21.300 Belgium has
00:21:21.920 adjusted their
00:21:22.600 protocols to
00:21:23.460 give that,
00:21:24.060 to give the
00:21:26.080 even stronger
00:21:26.780 version of the
00:21:27.460 chloroquine,
00:21:28.240 the hydroxychloroquine,
00:21:32.060 to all
00:21:32.720 patients with
00:21:33.900 medium to
00:21:34.520 severe symptoms.
00:21:35.380 So they're
00:21:35.960 giving it to
00:21:36.420 all patients.
00:21:38.240 So they're
00:21:38.920 not waiting for
00:21:39.580 severe, they're
00:21:40.160 giving it to
00:21:40.580 all, medium
00:21:41.840 to severe.
00:21:42.920 So more data
00:21:43.720 on success rates
00:21:44.520 should come up
00:21:45.120 then.
00:21:45.820 We're going to
00:21:46.240 know a lot
00:21:47.040 in a week,
00:21:49.520 two weeks
00:21:50.140 tops, because
00:21:51.440 Belgium will be
00:21:52.380 reproducing it
00:21:53.320 presumably with
00:21:54.660 enough information
00:21:57.720 that we'll really
00:21:59.020 feel more
00:21:59.460 confident about
00:22:00.140 what we know.
00:22:00.680 So, Patriot
00:22:05.700 Ian Hilgart
00:22:07.140 Martizas has
00:22:10.040 put together,
00:22:10.660 and I tweeted
00:22:11.260 it, you can
00:22:11.660 see it in my
00:22:12.200 Twitter feed,
00:22:14.460 one of the
00:22:15.940 best, just
00:22:18.080 one of the
00:22:18.420 best things I've
00:22:19.040 ever seen.
00:22:20.480 I'm a sort
00:22:22.180 of a data
00:22:22.620 geek.
00:22:23.580 If I see a
00:22:24.420 good presentation
00:22:25.220 about data,
00:22:26.460 like it just
00:22:26.980 makes me tingle,
00:22:28.060 I don't apologize
00:22:28.960 for that.
00:22:29.500 And you have
00:22:30.680 to see what
00:22:31.160 he did.
00:22:31.660 So, the
00:22:32.780 question he was
00:22:33.900 looking at was
00:22:34.480 convalescent
00:22:35.540 serum.
00:22:36.900 What that
00:22:37.440 means is people
00:22:38.240 who have already
00:22:38.940 recovered from
00:22:39.720 the virus have
00:22:41.180 the antibodies
00:22:41.980 already in
00:22:42.980 their blood.
00:22:44.360 And so there
00:22:44.880 is a mechanism,
00:22:45.800 it's known,
00:22:46.880 it's something
00:22:47.280 that China used
00:22:48.160 and has reported
00:22:49.040 on with some
00:22:49.820 success, that if
00:22:51.320 you could identify
00:22:51.980 the cured people,
00:22:53.340 take their
00:22:54.200 blood, you play
00:22:55.440 with the blood
00:22:55.860 a little bit,
00:22:56.700 whatever you do
00:22:57.880 with it, and
00:22:58.720 then it turns
00:22:59.140 into something
00:23:00.660 that you can
00:23:01.160 inject into
00:23:02.020 somebody else
00:23:02.820 and give them
00:23:03.380 a little resistance.
00:23:04.820 I don't know
00:23:05.360 if it's full
00:23:05.860 resistance, I
00:23:06.760 don't know
00:23:06.960 if it's just
00:23:07.420 good, those
00:23:08.900 are things to
00:23:09.420 know.
00:23:10.060 But wouldn't
00:23:10.560 you like to
00:23:11.120 know, like what
00:23:12.720 would that look
00:23:13.260 like, is that
00:23:13.960 practical?
00:23:14.920 In other words,
00:23:15.380 how many recovered
00:23:18.020 people would you
00:23:20.040 need to have
00:23:20.960 enough supply
00:23:22.280 for the people
00:23:23.580 you need to
00:23:24.060 cover?
00:23:24.300 isn't that a
00:23:24.980 good question?
00:23:26.400 Right?
00:23:27.140 Like at what
00:23:27.740 point do we
00:23:28.340 have enough
00:23:29.480 recovered people
00:23:30.460 who would also
00:23:31.740 volunteer to
00:23:33.160 give their blood
00:23:34.000 that there's
00:23:35.080 enough of it
00:23:35.840 that you can
00:23:37.160 start really
00:23:37.880 protecting big
00:23:38.900 groups?
00:23:39.760 And so Ian
00:23:40.520 figured that out.
00:23:41.980 This is a field
00:23:43.020 he has some
00:23:43.440 experience in.
00:23:44.600 And he's a
00:23:45.700 great communicator,
00:23:46.860 one of the best
00:23:47.300 you'll ever see
00:23:48.580 in the technical
00:23:49.200 sense.
00:23:49.600 And he comes
00:23:50.500 up with this
00:23:51.120 map of the
00:23:51.720 United States
00:23:52.400 and puts that
00:23:53.620 number on each
00:23:54.300 state.
00:23:55.400 It's kind of
00:23:55.840 genius.
00:23:56.820 So you can see,
00:23:57.480 you know, I
00:23:58.280 don't know,
00:23:58.800 California was
00:23:59.700 like 49 people
00:24:00.760 or whatever.
00:24:01.560 Now everything's
00:24:02.100 a snapshot, so
00:24:03.080 snapshot in time.
00:24:06.160 So of course
00:24:06.620 all this changes.
00:24:08.160 But it's a real
00:24:09.700 good first take.
00:24:10.920 You know, of
00:24:11.420 course, others
00:24:12.560 who know how
00:24:13.640 to look at
00:24:14.920 this stuff
00:24:15.380 probably should
00:24:15.900 look at it
00:24:16.500 and tweak it
00:24:17.800 or adjust it.
00:24:18.960 But man, is
00:24:19.520 that productive
00:24:20.180 information?
00:24:22.260 That is really
00:24:22.880 productive.
00:24:24.480 Because you
00:24:25.080 figured out how
00:24:25.680 much blood people
00:24:26.480 can give and
00:24:27.360 how many people
00:24:27.980 have it and
00:24:28.460 stuff.
00:24:29.340 So, you know,
00:24:30.080 we can keep
00:24:30.640 refining that.
00:24:31.420 But man, that's
00:24:31.900 just great work.
00:24:33.420 So, coronavirus,
00:24:35.020 your days are
00:24:35.840 numbered.
00:24:37.900 So we've got a
00:24:39.140 convalescent serum
00:24:40.160 method for some
00:24:42.400 degree of
00:24:43.820 protection.
00:24:44.420 We don't know
00:24:44.840 if that's 100%
00:24:45.720 or what percent.
00:24:47.320 We've got testing
00:24:48.360 kits.
00:24:48.700 online coming.
00:24:51.460 We've got, I
00:24:52.760 saw that Elon
00:24:53.460 Musk may be
00:24:55.980 getting in the
00:24:56.560 fight.
00:24:58.860 Elon Musk, he
00:25:00.220 was replying to,
00:25:01.480 I don't know who
00:25:01.880 it was, but the
00:25:03.800 question was, could
00:25:05.240 he be part of the
00:25:06.060 effort to mass
00:25:07.060 produce these N95
00:25:08.300 masks?
00:25:09.340 And apparently
00:25:09.900 part of the
00:25:10.660 problem is they're
00:25:11.300 hard to make.
00:25:12.640 So it's not good
00:25:13.620 enough just to have
00:25:14.540 a factory.
00:25:15.040 you've got to
00:25:15.880 have the right
00:25:16.240 kind of factory
00:25:16.840 and know-how
00:25:17.400 and it's not
00:25:18.680 fast.
00:25:20.340 And so Elon
00:25:22.520 has sort of
00:25:23.880 entered the
00:25:25.200 fight, at least
00:25:25.860 in the question
00:25:26.500 sense, and
00:25:27.640 said that between
00:25:28.660 Tesla and
00:25:29.920 SpaceX, they have
00:25:31.560 engineers who
00:25:32.240 would know how
00:25:32.880 to make a
00:25:33.260 ventilator.
00:25:33.980 In other words,
00:25:35.320 making a
00:25:36.320 ventilator would
00:25:36.940 be easy for the
00:25:39.280 kind of talent he
00:25:40.140 has.
00:25:40.560 That's basically
00:25:41.200 what he said.
00:25:41.840 But he hasn't
00:25:42.820 stepped up and
00:25:43.400 said, we're
00:25:43.820 going to go at
00:25:44.860 that.
00:25:45.180 He said, tell me
00:25:46.620 which hospitals
00:25:47.260 need ventilators.
00:25:48.580 So I think he's
00:25:49.500 still testing to
00:25:51.180 see if this is
00:25:51.880 real.
00:25:53.280 Meaning, how
00:25:55.080 important is it
00:25:55.900 that he start
00:25:57.180 converting the
00:25:57.960 resources of
00:25:59.020 Tesla toward
00:26:00.220 ventilators, or
00:26:01.300 at least helping
00:26:01.880 somebody else do
00:26:02.580 it.
00:26:03.440 So I don't say
00:26:05.020 he's fully in the
00:26:05.960 fight yet, but if
00:26:07.800 I were a virus
00:26:08.660 and I heard he
00:26:09.540 was getting that
00:26:10.300 close to being in
00:26:11.180 the fight,
00:26:11.840 I'd be a little
00:26:12.700 worried.
00:26:16.720 Somebody says,
00:26:17.780 Mark Cuban
00:26:18.660 on Fox.
00:26:19.540 I was going to
00:26:20.260 talk about Mark
00:26:20.880 Cuban.
00:26:21.180 He's on my
00:26:21.680 list.
00:26:23.140 And he had
00:26:24.080 publicly called
00:26:26.980 for engineers to
00:26:28.040 figure out how to
00:26:28.740 engineer a simpler
00:26:29.800 version of the
00:26:30.520 N95 so that we
00:26:32.300 could make them
00:26:32.800 faster.
00:26:33.780 I've got to say,
00:26:35.560 I've mentioned
00:26:36.400 this before, but
00:26:37.180 there will be a
00:26:37.620 lot of leaders
00:26:39.200 who are identified
00:26:41.460 during this
00:26:42.320 crisis.
00:26:42.660 People have
00:26:43.360 just stepped
00:26:43.780 up, and he's
00:26:45.140 one of them.
00:26:46.220 So Mark Cuban, I
00:26:47.320 would say, is one
00:26:48.440 of the most
00:26:49.100 important and
00:26:50.320 effective just
00:26:51.640 citizen leaders in
00:26:54.240 this crisis.
00:26:55.200 I give him just
00:26:57.080 all kinds of
00:26:57.920 credit for the
00:26:58.640 way he's
00:26:58.980 handling, not
00:26:59.540 only the way he
00:27:00.020 handled his
00:27:00.440 business and his
00:27:01.760 employees, which
00:27:02.760 was early and
00:27:03.620 fast and public,
00:27:04.980 great role model,
00:27:05.880 people, but he's
00:27:08.960 continuing to
00:27:09.680 find areas in
00:27:10.820 which his unique
00:27:11.640 contribution make
00:27:13.420 a difference.
00:27:14.180 Probably we only
00:27:15.080 know about a
00:27:15.560 fraction of it.
00:27:16.860 So when you see
00:27:18.320 that, when you
00:27:19.260 see your most
00:27:19.980 capable people
00:27:21.020 stepping up, it
00:27:22.940 just has to make
00:27:23.580 you feel better.
00:27:24.200 It should.
00:27:27.640 Let's see what
00:27:28.340 else we got.
00:27:29.700 This is just a
00:27:30.680 funny anecdote.
00:27:31.480 I forgot about it.
00:27:33.140 So I guess I
00:27:34.060 might have been the
00:27:34.660 day before
00:27:35.040 yesterday, Bernie
00:27:35.780 Sanders was
00:27:36.620 asked by CNN's
00:27:37.840 Manu Raju and
00:27:41.160 asked his
00:27:41.640 time frame for a
00:27:42.500 decision about
00:27:44.240 whether he'd
00:27:45.020 stay in the race
00:27:45.640 or not.
00:27:46.940 And this quote
00:27:48.440 doesn't work nearly
00:27:49.260 as well without
00:27:49.980 the full swearing
00:27:51.620 because Bernie used
00:27:53.000 a curse word.
00:27:54.320 But I'm not going
00:27:55.820 to tell you kids to
00:27:57.840 leave the room
00:27:58.400 because I'm not
00:27:58.980 going to use the
00:27:59.520 word.
00:28:00.160 But I want you in
00:28:00.980 your mind to
00:28:02.300 substitute that
00:28:03.340 word because it
00:28:05.880 makes it all
00:28:06.340 funnier because
00:28:07.720 it's coming from
00:28:08.360 Bernie Sanders and
00:28:09.440 he's talking to
00:28:10.160 Manu Raju of
00:28:11.140 CNN.
00:28:12.120 So Manu Raju
00:28:12.900 asked him for his
00:28:14.500 time frame for a
00:28:15.260 decision and
00:28:15.920 reportedly Bernie
00:28:16.980 looked at him and
00:28:17.720 said, quote,
00:28:19.320 I'm dealing with
00:28:20.200 an effing global
00:28:21.240 crisis.
00:28:22.240 Right now I'm
00:28:23.020 trying to do my
00:28:23.680 best to make sure
00:28:24.400 that we don't
00:28:24.840 have an economic
00:28:26.520 meltdown and that
00:28:27.840 people don't die.
00:28:29.180 Is that enough for
00:28:29.940 you to keep me
00:28:30.600 busy for today?
00:28:35.840 Bernie.
00:28:38.860 The only thing I'm
00:28:40.140 going to like better
00:28:40.780 than Bernie running
00:28:41.720 for president is
00:28:43.320 Bernie knowing he's
00:28:44.200 not going to be
00:28:44.740 president.
00:28:46.420 You know, Bernie
00:28:47.560 unleashed.
00:28:49.800 Once he knows he
00:28:50.700 doesn't have to do
00:28:51.420 things or say things
00:28:52.460 that are going to
00:28:52.880 make him president
00:28:53.500 because that's not
00:28:54.140 going to happen.
00:28:55.400 It looks like, you
00:28:56.260 know, at least
00:28:56.840 internally one could
00:28:58.480 imagine that he's
00:29:00.220 made that decision.
00:29:01.240 Who knows?
00:29:01.760 You know, I can't
00:29:02.240 read his mind.
00:29:03.060 But if you say to
00:29:05.060 the CNN, if you
00:29:07.260 turn to the CNN
00:29:08.040 person and say, I'm
00:29:09.260 dealing with an
00:29:09.820 effing global
00:29:10.440 crisis.
00:29:11.200 Right now I'm
00:29:11.780 trying to do my
00:29:12.380 best to make sure
00:29:13.060 that we don't have
00:29:13.700 an economic meltdown
00:29:16.540 and that people
00:29:16.920 don't die.
00:29:17.480 Is that enough for
00:29:18.020 you to keep me
00:29:18.480 busy today?
00:29:21.140 Trump has never
00:29:22.520 dealt with CNN
00:29:23.180 that well.
00:29:25.560 All right.
00:29:26.340 Here's some more
00:29:27.320 potential good news.
00:29:30.220 It's good news that
00:29:33.080 emanates from a
00:29:35.400 horrible news.
00:29:36.700 So let me not
00:29:37.380 underplay the
00:29:38.980 horribleness of what
00:29:40.140 I'm going to say.
00:29:40.700 I don't want to be
00:29:41.200 Vanessa Hudgens and
00:29:42.360 be viral tomorrow
00:29:44.160 because I said
00:29:45.740 anything positive.
00:29:47.200 But there was a
00:29:48.860 apparently a family
00:29:50.060 of seven members
00:29:51.000 who all got it and
00:29:52.040 three of them died.
00:29:53.680 Now that's the
00:29:55.240 tragedy, obviously.
00:29:56.560 So, you know,
00:29:58.480 things can't get
00:29:59.120 worse for this
00:29:59.620 family and, you
00:30:00.420 know, and so we
00:30:02.320 feel for them.
00:30:04.060 But if three
00:30:05.160 members of the
00:30:05.700 same family die,
00:30:06.880 there's a little
00:30:07.600 flag that goes off
00:30:08.980 in your head that
00:30:09.620 says, genetic?
00:30:12.280 Is it genetic?
00:30:13.680 Now, it's too
00:30:14.720 early to say yes,
00:30:16.540 although there's
00:30:17.240 strong reason to
00:30:18.140 believe that there
00:30:18.740 might be.
00:30:19.180 But this family,
00:30:21.500 and I don't mean
00:30:22.120 to be unkind,
00:30:22.960 but they did show
00:30:23.940 a family picture
00:30:24.800 and I'll just say
00:30:26.580 that they don't
00:30:28.600 look like they go
00:30:29.200 to the gym a lot.
00:30:30.060 I'll just say that.
00:30:31.080 Okay?
00:30:31.480 So you can't rule
00:30:32.600 out that it was
00:30:34.380 an unusually
00:30:35.440 non-health-related
00:30:39.300 family.
00:30:39.920 I just don't want
00:30:40.540 to be unkind.
00:30:42.040 So you can't rule
00:30:42.840 out that there was
00:30:43.400 just something about
00:30:43.940 the family, they
00:30:44.700 weren't taking care
00:30:45.540 of themselves, and
00:30:46.340 that had something
00:30:47.100 to do with it.
00:30:47.720 But I'm not
00:30:48.960 suggesting that.
00:30:49.760 I'm just saying
00:30:50.260 that we don't
00:30:50.800 know the situation.
00:30:52.320 I'm definitely
00:30:53.000 not suggesting that.
00:30:54.100 Just saying it's
00:30:54.600 in the list of
00:30:56.160 things you would
00:30:56.580 look at.
00:30:57.820 The other
00:30:58.420 possibility is,
00:31:00.180 and again, this
00:31:00.880 is very non-scientific
00:31:02.920 what I'm going to
00:31:03.460 say, just something
00:31:04.760 that would be in
00:31:05.540 the hypothesis
00:31:06.340 category, maybe a
00:31:08.340 little bit more
00:31:08.920 than a hypothesis,
00:31:10.360 which is that the
00:31:11.680 viral load makes
00:31:13.780 a difference.
00:31:15.120 So if somebody
00:31:15.980 in your family gets
00:31:16.880 it and you're in
00:31:17.500 close quarters, you
00:31:19.400 may be getting a
00:31:20.480 big dose of the
00:31:21.940 virus, and then
00:31:23.060 maybe three people
00:31:24.580 in the family have
00:31:25.400 it, and you're
00:31:25.960 getting a real big
00:31:26.900 dose.
00:31:27.900 So the entire
00:31:29.000 story could be
00:31:30.040 that once the
00:31:31.440 family got it, they
00:31:32.240 were just too
00:31:33.540 close and didn't
00:31:34.340 have enough
00:31:34.720 ventilation, and so
00:31:36.200 they just stewed
00:31:37.000 in it until they
00:31:37.640 got the worst
00:31:38.200 possible degree of
00:31:39.540 the infection, in
00:31:41.640 the same way that
00:31:42.260 a nursing home
00:31:43.280 got it worse, in
00:31:45.200 the same way that
00:31:45.880 the cruise ship
00:31:46.640 got it worse, because
00:31:48.180 the marinating and
00:31:49.420 the extra virus
00:31:50.420 might make a
00:31:51.460 difference.
00:31:52.640 And you could
00:31:53.220 kind of
00:31:53.940 commonsensically
00:31:54.860 see why that
00:31:55.640 would make sense,
00:31:56.620 even if your
00:31:57.520 common sense doesn't
00:31:58.460 match actual
00:31:59.040 science.
00:32:00.080 So this is just a
00:32:01.480 question.
00:32:02.540 But I said this
00:32:03.920 before, if you
00:32:04.480 had a, if your
00:32:05.580 virus got into you
00:32:06.600 just one way, let's
00:32:08.340 say you touched
00:32:08.900 your mouth after you
00:32:09.840 touched something,
00:32:11.420 is that a slow
00:32:12.960 building virus that
00:32:14.840 gives your body
00:32:15.820 time to build up
00:32:16.680 some defenses,
00:32:18.040 versus, you
00:32:18.960 know, if I
00:32:19.260 walked up to
00:32:19.740 you with a
00:32:20.160 fire hose full
00:32:20.980 of virus and
00:32:21.620 just sprayed it
00:32:22.220 all over your
00:32:22.700 body, and it
00:32:23.640 was getting in
00:32:24.280 every crack and
00:32:25.660 hole in your
00:32:26.140 body at the
00:32:26.680 same time, would
00:32:28.400 you recover just
00:32:29.140 as quickly?
00:32:30.780 Now, my common
00:32:31.540 sense, informed
00:32:32.840 by exactly zero
00:32:34.100 science and zero
00:32:35.080 medical knowledge,
00:32:37.120 is that I think
00:32:38.820 it would be worse
00:32:39.540 if you got the
00:32:40.320 fire hose of
00:32:41.100 virus versus the
00:32:42.780 little pinprick of
00:32:43.640 virus as your
00:32:44.580 initial infection,
00:32:47.020 right?
00:32:47.700 I mean, maybe
00:32:49.320 somebody can tell
00:32:50.040 me if that's just
00:32:50.920 crazy, but I think
00:32:52.460 there's at least
00:32:53.620 some medical
00:32:54.260 intuition that
00:32:55.740 people have had
00:32:56.240 about that.
00:32:57.040 So, anyway,
00:32:58.680 where I'm going
00:32:59.120 on this is that
00:33:00.060 there are people
00:33:01.380 looking to do
00:33:02.520 genetic testing.
00:33:03.760 If they can get
00:33:04.740 samples of this
00:33:05.620 family, samples of
00:33:06.800 other people who
00:33:07.560 have had good
00:33:08.980 experiences and bad
00:33:10.500 experiences, there's
00:33:11.900 a very strong
00:33:12.760 feeling that there's
00:33:14.020 something about
00:33:14.540 the genetic
00:33:15.820 lung composition
00:33:18.040 of some people
00:33:18.860 that makes them
00:33:19.360 more susceptible.
00:33:25.040 And we have
00:33:27.180 the companies
00:33:28.260 that can do
00:33:28.820 that.
00:33:29.580 We certainly
00:33:30.720 must have enough
00:33:31.520 samples that exist.
00:33:33.940 You know, getting
00:33:34.420 permission to get
00:33:35.360 those samples,
00:33:36.140 getting permission
00:33:36.680 to test, and then
00:33:37.940 getting enough of
00:33:38.620 them that you
00:33:39.020 have a useful
00:33:40.380 thing, could
00:33:43.080 tell us a lot.
00:33:44.280 So, remember,
00:33:45.180 this is an
00:33:45.720 information problem
00:33:47.000 disguised as a
00:33:49.200 health problem.
00:33:51.180 And if we could
00:33:52.760 take everybody's
00:33:53.700 DNA, imagine we
00:33:55.300 could test you,
00:33:56.120 test you at home,
00:33:57.080 you spit in the
00:33:57.900 test tube, just
00:33:58.580 like 23andMe,
00:34:00.400 but you put a lot
00:34:01.540 more resources
00:34:02.220 against testing.
00:34:04.640 Wouldn't you
00:34:05.160 like to know?
00:34:07.720 And in my case,
00:34:08.960 I've already done
00:34:09.520 a 23andMe, so I
00:34:11.440 don't know if that
00:34:12.340 means they could
00:34:13.040 just use what
00:34:13.720 they already
00:34:14.060 have.
00:34:15.260 That would be
00:34:15.960 big.
00:34:16.800 So somebody has
00:34:17.500 to answer me
00:34:18.040 this question,
00:34:18.740 please.
00:34:20.100 Those little
00:34:20.980 tests that already
00:34:21.980 exist, 23andMe
00:34:23.300 and such, if you've
00:34:24.680 already taken that,
00:34:26.980 did 23andMe and
00:34:28.440 the other companies
00:34:29.440 that do that sort
00:34:30.140 of thing, do they
00:34:31.180 keep a full profile
00:34:32.520 of your DNA?
00:34:34.380 Or do they just
00:34:35.160 pick out the parts
00:34:36.140 that they know
00:34:36.700 how to deal with
00:34:37.540 and literally
00:34:39.000 delete the rest?
00:34:41.360 Or not test the
00:34:42.240 rest?
00:34:42.480 I don't know how
00:34:42.960 that works.
00:34:44.100 But do we
00:34:45.800 already have a
00:34:47.500 pretty big database
00:34:48.360 that's a full,
00:34:50.160 it'd have to be a
00:34:50.800 full spectrum,
00:34:51.520 right?
00:34:51.560 You'd have to look
00:34:52.080 at the whole DNA.
00:34:53.280 Do we have that
00:34:54.060 already?
00:34:55.060 Because if we do,
00:34:56.760 imagine you find
00:34:57.680 out that your
00:34:58.220 lung receptors are
00:35:00.740 the type that
00:35:01.420 are the bad
00:35:01.880 kind, or the
00:35:03.240 kind that you're
00:35:04.040 most likely to,
00:35:05.200 people in the
00:35:06.380 comments are
00:35:06.840 saying that they
00:35:07.340 have the full
00:35:07.820 DNA.
00:35:09.460 I can't guarantee
00:35:10.640 that's true,
00:35:11.660 but a lot of
00:35:12.760 smart people here
00:35:13.600 are suggesting
00:35:14.240 that that's
00:35:15.760 hard.
00:35:16.340 Somebody is
00:35:16.960 saying in the
00:35:17.380 comments that
00:35:18.000 saliva is the
00:35:19.020 hardest thing to
00:35:19.980 test for viruses,
00:35:21.360 but that's not
00:35:21.820 what we're talking
00:35:22.400 about.
00:35:23.080 We're not talking
00:35:23.980 about saliva to
00:35:24.880 test if you have
00:35:25.600 the virus.
00:35:26.600 I'm talking about
00:35:27.320 using saliva to
00:35:28.380 test if you have
00:35:29.520 the genetic
00:35:30.060 makeup that
00:35:31.400 would make you
00:35:31.980 especially
00:35:32.660 susceptible to
00:35:34.160 the virus, or
00:35:35.180 in the best
00:35:35.620 case, especially
00:35:36.880 non-susceptible.
00:35:39.860 So, that's
00:35:41.280 another weapon.
00:35:42.580 So, let me
00:35:43.220 list these.
00:35:43.760 So, we've got
00:35:44.160 the medicines
00:35:46.780 that appear to
00:35:47.500 be 100%
00:35:48.420 effective in
00:35:49.640 trials.
00:35:50.800 We've got
00:35:51.720 test kits that
00:35:54.020 you'll be able
00:35:54.380 to test at
00:35:54.940 home.
00:35:55.260 We just have
00:35:55.760 to ramp it
00:35:56.300 up.
00:35:57.240 We've got
00:35:57.780 this genetic
00:35:58.820 potential that I
00:36:00.040 think is
00:36:00.320 actually a
00:36:00.740 really high
00:36:01.160 potential to
00:36:02.580 be something
00:36:03.960 positive here and
00:36:05.020 really give us
00:36:06.280 more information
00:36:06.940 about who to
00:36:07.460 protect the
00:36:08.000 most.
00:36:09.100 We've got
00:36:09.660 the indication
00:36:12.180 that the
00:36:13.020 blood serum
00:36:14.500 thing should be
00:36:16.780 effective, and
00:36:17.680 we'll have more
00:36:19.200 information soon
00:36:20.120 with the test
00:36:20.660 kits of who's
00:36:21.400 recovered, etc.
00:36:22.480 You can see it
00:36:23.340 coming all
00:36:23.680 together, can't
00:36:24.260 you?
00:36:24.380 And I
00:36:27.260 think we'll
00:36:27.600 be making
00:36:27.980 more masks
00:36:28.540 and ventilators
00:36:29.400 too.
00:36:31.700 Apparently, I
00:36:33.460 predicted that
00:36:34.240 the drive-in
00:36:34.960 theaters would
00:36:35.680 start popping
00:36:37.440 up.
00:36:38.140 Now, I
00:36:38.420 don't know if
00:36:38.800 anybody's
00:36:39.300 actually popped
00:36:41.040 up an actual
00:36:41.860 drive-in theater
00:36:43.480 just for the
00:36:44.320 crisis, but
00:36:45.220 apparently the
00:36:45.700 ones that
00:36:46.040 exist, there
00:36:46.740 still are some,
00:36:47.620 are doing good
00:36:48.220 business.
00:36:50.540 Oh, somebody
00:36:50.940 said that I was
00:36:51.620 in the red now.
00:36:52.420 Is that true?
00:36:52.780 If that's
00:36:56.060 true, it's not
00:36:56.940 yet showing up
00:36:57.760 on my stock
00:36:58.360 ticker, but
00:36:58.920 there is a
00:36:59.360 delay there, so
00:37:00.860 I wouldn't
00:37:01.700 take that as
00:37:02.740 true yet, but
00:37:04.960 keep an eye on
00:37:05.480 it.
00:37:09.880 So, think
00:37:11.400 about all
00:37:12.040 those things
00:37:12.940 that are
00:37:15.600 positive today.
00:37:17.860 Now,
00:37:18.780 I actually
00:37:21.900 scouted a
00:37:22.700 location in
00:37:23.680 my neighborhood.
00:37:24.620 There's a,
00:37:25.140 what would
00:37:27.780 you call it,
00:37:28.260 a strip
00:37:28.720 mall that's
00:37:29.260 closed.
00:37:30.640 So, well,
00:37:32.100 the anchor
00:37:32.820 store is
00:37:33.240 closed, some
00:37:33.760 of the small
00:37:34.120 ones are still
00:37:34.540 there, but
00:37:35.220 the parking
00:37:35.680 lot is empty
00:37:36.300 because the
00:37:36.920 remaining stores
00:37:37.980 are sort of
00:37:39.500 onesie, twosie
00:37:40.320 customer situations,
00:37:41.740 so there's this
00:37:42.420 vast parking
00:37:43.100 lot in the
00:37:44.140 middle of my
00:37:44.620 neighborhood with
00:37:45.300 nothing to do.
00:37:46.520 and how
00:37:48.460 hard could
00:37:48.900 it be,
00:37:50.380 how hard
00:37:53.380 could it
00:37:53.700 be to put
00:37:55.140 up a
00:37:55.440 temporary
00:37:55.820 screen and
00:37:56.880 then, I
00:37:57.400 don't know
00:37:57.720 what technology
00:37:58.480 it is, but
00:37:59.140 you should be
00:37:59.900 able to
00:38:00.220 stream to
00:38:00.760 the car
00:38:01.120 radios,
00:38:01.680 right?
00:38:01.940 If you have
00:38:02.320 the right
00:38:02.580 technology,
00:38:03.460 you can do
00:38:04.300 a short
00:38:04.820 range FM
00:38:05.720 situation,
00:38:06.960 correct me if
00:38:07.500 I'm wrong,
00:38:08.140 but if
00:38:08.600 somebody can
00:38:09.040 tell me what
00:38:09.580 product that
00:38:11.360 is,
00:38:11.760 why is
00:38:15.240 everybody
00:38:15.460 saying the
00:38:15.920 market is
00:38:16.420 down when
00:38:17.880 my ticker is
00:38:18.740 not showing
00:38:19.360 that?
00:38:20.820 Is that the
00:38:21.300 delay?
00:38:21.620 Oh, yeah, it
00:38:22.060 did turn down.
00:38:23.300 So, yeah, there's
00:38:23.820 a ticker delay,
00:38:24.760 so it just
00:38:25.240 turned down.
00:38:26.260 So, here's what
00:38:26.920 you're going to
00:38:27.620 see today.
00:38:30.640 You're going to
00:38:31.160 see news of
00:38:32.280 the potential
00:38:33.500 cure, you're
00:38:34.440 going to see
00:38:34.580 lots of good
00:38:35.060 news about
00:38:35.480 lots of
00:38:35.780 things, but
00:38:36.740 the market is
00:38:37.660 also going to
00:38:38.240 be seeing
00:38:38.640 massive bad
00:38:39.560 news.
00:38:40.460 So, you're
00:38:41.140 going to see
00:38:41.400 more news
00:38:41.740 news today
00:38:42.260 than you've
00:38:42.560 ever seen
00:38:42.860 in your
00:38:43.040 life, but
00:38:43.620 like, you
00:38:44.720 know, 80%
00:38:45.580 of it is
00:38:45.980 going to
00:38:46.120 be bad,
00:38:46.840 because it's
00:38:47.320 people having
00:38:48.020 a bad time
00:38:48.620 right now,
00:38:49.760 and that 20%
00:38:50.880 is going to
00:38:51.460 be, I
00:38:51.940 think we
00:38:52.280 can get a
00:38:53.160 handle on
00:38:53.580 it.
00:38:54.940 I think we
00:38:55.620 can get a
00:38:56.000 handle on
00:38:56.400 it.
00:38:57.500 All right, so
00:38:58.160 people are
00:38:58.520 saying the
00:38:58.940 Dow is down.
00:39:00.800 You should
00:39:01.280 expect a lot
00:39:03.560 of choppiness
00:39:04.200 in the next
00:39:05.000 two weeks.
00:39:09.040 How are
00:39:09.620 you doing
00:39:10.660 on your
00:39:11.380 micro steps?
00:39:14.200 Let me
00:39:14.480 give you a
00:39:16.160 way to get
00:39:16.940 going, because
00:39:18.240 no matter what,
00:39:18.960 we're probably
00:39:19.340 going to be
00:39:19.740 holed up for a
00:39:20.660 few more
00:39:21.000 weeks, right?
00:39:21.980 Best case
00:39:22.660 scenario, we're
00:39:23.260 still going to be
00:39:23.660 staying home a lot.
00:39:24.300 best case
00:39:30.120 scenario, we'll be
00:39:33.100 staying home a
00:39:33.660 lot, no matter
00:39:34.580 what, and
00:39:35.700 here's my
00:39:37.460 recommendation, and
00:39:38.640 I'm using this
00:39:39.500 process myself.
00:39:41.300 Micro steps.
00:39:42.500 I talked about
00:39:43.040 this before, but
00:39:43.800 it's a real good
00:39:44.860 time to talk about
00:39:45.580 it again.
00:39:46.640 So my new
00:39:49.180 skill that I
00:39:49.860 plan to pick up
00:39:50.700 in the next few
00:39:51.340 weeks, it has to
00:39:52.400 do with my
00:39:52.840 studio equipment,
00:39:53.880 and there's
00:39:54.180 some new
00:39:54.600 software that I
00:39:55.920 have to load and
00:39:56.660 learn and use it
00:39:57.860 all together, etc.
00:39:58.840 So I have my
00:40:00.160 body of learning
00:40:01.420 that I need to
00:40:02.260 complete.
00:40:03.300 Now if I think
00:40:03.920 about all of it,
00:40:05.680 it's easy to
00:40:06.620 ignore it, because
00:40:07.980 it's like, well,
00:40:08.480 it's going to be a
00:40:09.420 lot of work.
00:40:10.340 I don't really feel
00:40:11.100 like doing a lot
00:40:11.620 of work.
00:40:12.140 Who knows?
00:40:12.640 So it's easy to
00:40:14.980 ignore it if I
00:40:15.660 see it as this
00:40:16.260 big, hard thing.
00:40:17.820 So instead, I
00:40:18.760 say, well, I'm
00:40:19.500 just going to do
00:40:19.960 one micro step.
00:40:23.480 So I did that
00:40:24.400 yesterday or the
00:40:25.420 day before.
00:40:26.680 I talked to the
00:40:28.160 person who makes
00:40:29.000 the software, and
00:40:29.760 he explained how
00:40:30.380 to use it, and
00:40:31.220 arranging to
00:40:32.340 purchase it, etc.
00:40:35.200 So it's a very
00:40:36.540 small thing.
00:40:38.040 I just made a
00:40:39.220 phone call,
00:40:41.080 checked some
00:40:41.560 stuff.
00:40:42.620 So if you're
00:40:43.440 thinking about
00:40:43.980 learning something,
00:40:45.400 do that.
00:40:46.580 Do the smallest
00:40:47.400 step.
00:40:48.260 If you're thinking
00:40:48.860 about, oh, I'd
00:40:49.600 like to pick up
00:40:50.340 some skills in,
00:40:51.180 let's say, marketing.
00:40:54.380 The smallest step
00:40:55.740 is to find the
00:40:57.440 online course that
00:40:59.420 is offering it,
00:41:00.260 and there are a
00:41:01.020 few.
00:41:01.540 So just do the
00:41:02.240 smallest thing.
00:41:03.020 If you think
00:41:03.600 taking a class
00:41:04.780 sounds like a
00:41:05.540 lot of work,
00:41:07.160 just find out
00:41:07.860 where it is.
00:41:08.880 That's all.
00:41:09.760 Don't commit to
00:41:10.420 anything else.
00:41:10.980 Just find out
00:41:11.880 where it is.
00:41:13.460 And then the
00:41:14.060 next day, maybe
00:41:15.460 sign up.
00:41:16.340 You don't even
00:41:16.780 have to look at
00:41:17.960 any of the
00:41:18.280 course materials.
00:41:19.160 Just sign up.
00:41:21.000 Ten minutes.
00:41:22.440 And the next
00:41:24.740 day, just say,
00:41:26.440 you know, I'll
00:41:27.500 sample it.
00:41:28.740 I'll look at
00:41:29.600 this for five
00:41:30.200 minutes.
00:41:31.140 So that's the
00:41:32.420 key.
00:41:33.240 You won't have
00:41:35.420 many times in
00:41:36.200 your life where
00:41:37.780 you're going to
00:41:38.060 have this much
00:41:38.640 spare time that
00:41:40.580 you can't
00:41:41.160 productively do
00:41:42.120 something outside
00:41:42.700 the house.
00:41:43.840 So use it.
00:41:45.800 You know, learn
00:41:46.380 a skill.
00:41:46.900 Fix up your
00:41:47.400 house.
00:41:48.260 Fix your space.
00:41:49.940 Find a way to
00:41:51.080 take advantage of
00:41:52.320 this little
00:41:52.800 coronavirus holiday
00:41:54.660 we're having.
00:41:55.220 here.
00:41:59.500 Let's see.
00:42:00.160 I want to make
00:42:00.560 sure that...
00:42:02.220 Oh, I forgot
00:42:04.040 all about this
00:42:04.640 too.
00:42:05.500 So I mentioned
00:42:06.160 this yesterday,
00:42:06.880 but some of you
00:42:08.380 have only watched
00:42:08.920 in the morning.
00:42:10.000 Health and
00:42:10.500 Human Services
00:42:11.200 announced that
00:42:13.760 telehealth doctors
00:42:15.120 will be able,
00:42:16.180 and I don't know,
00:42:16.900 maybe it's in
00:42:18.060 general, but
00:42:18.960 doctors will be
00:42:19.740 able to practice
00:42:20.880 across state
00:42:21.820 borders.
00:42:22.180 So the federal
00:42:23.740 government has
00:42:24.540 just overruled
00:42:25.740 all the state
00:42:26.360 boards that
00:42:27.320 control the
00:42:27.840 stuff, and
00:42:28.800 just said, at
00:42:29.920 least for the
00:42:30.400 duration of the
00:42:31.840 emergency, the
00:42:33.360 doctors can
00:42:34.120 practice across
00:42:35.440 state borders,
00:42:36.380 effectively tripling
00:42:37.580 the capacity in
00:42:39.260 one day.
00:42:40.600 Pretty amazing.
00:42:42.260 Can somebody tell
00:42:43.060 me the name of
00:42:43.880 the M.
00:42:44.480 Night Shyamala
00:42:45.580 movie in
00:42:47.040 which, I think,
00:42:48.120 Mel Gibson was
00:42:48.900 in it, and
00:42:49.580 aliens came
00:42:53.700 down, and
00:42:54.680 they couldn't be
00:42:55.840 stopped, but it
00:42:57.340 turns out that the
00:42:58.340 solution was
00:42:59.180 water.
00:43:00.900 So when they
00:43:01.700 thought everything
00:43:02.280 was doomed,
00:43:03.840 there was no way
00:43:04.340 to solve it.
00:43:05.580 Oh, it's called
00:43:06.060 Signs.
00:43:06.820 Thank you.
00:43:07.460 Very quick.
00:43:08.660 Yeah, so the
00:43:09.100 movie is called
00:43:09.680 Signs.
00:43:11.140 And I've got to
00:43:12.360 tell you that from
00:43:13.060 the very first
00:43:13.960 start of this
00:43:16.100 coronavirus crisis,
00:43:17.380 I couldn't get
00:43:18.580 that movie out
00:43:19.280 of my head.
00:43:21.060 And the part of
00:43:21.980 it I couldn't get
00:43:22.600 out of my head
00:43:22.980 was just the
00:43:23.540 specific part where
00:43:25.480 there was a
00:43:26.920 weapon that
00:43:27.560 existed, and it
00:43:28.600 was widely
00:43:29.120 available, literally
00:43:30.060 it was water, and
00:43:31.680 the aliens were
00:43:32.560 killed by water.
00:43:34.360 And I thought to
00:43:36.800 myself, I don't
00:43:37.720 know why I can't
00:43:38.280 shake this.
00:43:38.900 I feel like there's
00:43:39.680 an existing
00:43:40.380 substance or
00:43:43.220 something on
00:43:44.000 Earth that we
00:43:45.280 just have to
00:43:45.800 figure out what
00:43:46.400 it is.
00:43:47.380 And I think we
00:43:48.780 did that.
00:43:49.940 We, the
00:43:50.700 public.
00:43:51.800 We, the
00:43:52.220 scientists, anyway.
00:43:55.840 I guess that's
00:43:56.420 not we.
00:43:57.440 So, I
00:44:00.660 couldn't get that
00:44:01.240 out of my head.
00:44:02.000 And this feels
00:44:03.280 like the third
00:44:04.000 act of a movie,
00:44:06.140 where you're in
00:44:07.120 that impossible
00:44:07.800 situation, and
00:44:08.800 then you realize
00:44:09.360 that water kills
00:44:10.340 the aliens.
00:44:11.540 And I feel like
00:44:12.160 that was the
00:44:12.800 movie that we
00:44:13.380 just found
00:44:13.800 ourselves in,
00:44:14.340 with this
00:44:14.840 chloroquine,
00:44:16.540 whatever it is,
00:44:18.180 stuff.
00:44:18.980 All right.
00:44:20.660 That's all I
00:44:21.300 got for today.
00:44:22.720 I think it's
00:44:23.480 plenty.
00:44:25.340 And,
00:44:25.860 and, uh,
00:44:29.420 hope you're all
00:44:30.180 feeling better.
00:44:31.480 Get your
00:44:31.900 blanket, and I
00:44:33.080 will talk to you
00:44:33.780 later.
00:44:34.940 This is
00:44:48.020 the
00:44:48.440 two
00:44:48.740 you
00:44:49.480 have
00:44:49.900 in
00:44:50.380 the
00:44:52.100 little
00:44:52.500 of
00:44:53.040 what
00:44:53.620 AfD
00:44:54.220 you
00:44:54.280 have
00:44:54.900 you
00:44:55.340 have
00:44:55.400 to
00:44:56.500 you
00:44:57.260 have
00:44:57.580 to
00:44:57.680 save
00:44:58.220 you
00:44:59.080 have
00:45:00.500 you
00:45:01.460 have
00:45:01.620 you
00:45:01.760 have
00:45:02.380 the
00:45:03.260 a
00:45:03.660 to
00:45:03.780 you
00:45:03.840 have
