look at that. By the way, if you're wondering why you would use blockchain as opposed to other technologies for any kind of apps, some of the advantages are that it's a distributed system so you don't need to build a database. The other data just lives distributed in the internet. Some of it is privacy. Something that is it's easier to do things across borders so you don't have to worry about the…

I've told you before that watching Chris Cuomo interview his brother the governor of New York is some of the best, just some of the best TV around. I mean it's just fascinating to watch that. So I'd like to keep seeing them. So best of luck to Chris Cuomo for a speedy recovery. But I hope that you stick with us and let us see the whole process. And I hope it turns out well.
All right. That's about all I got here. Not a fan of Scott but would vote for Scott just on the weed thing. Yeah, that's what I promise. I'll get the federal government out of the weed business. States will still get to make some decisions but I would get the federal government down. And by the way I'm pretty sure that Matt Gaetz would do the same. So if you wanted to know what my policies would look like, I haven't matched them but I've kind of a feeling that Matt Gaetz, oh that would be really really close. A lot of stuff from you know how do you address the Green New Deal to health care to weed. I think a lot of them are going to be really close. I haven't checked but I think so.
Yeah. I've heard of people who, I know one person who hasn't got it in a test result. It's been almost two weeks. So this is somebody who actually you know waited and got the test, had the right symptoms to get the test, and two weeks are going by without a result. Two weeks.
Now I don't, Scott running out of gas. Are you talking about me or the world? Somebody says the antibiotics helped with a secondary infection. Yeah. So the reason that people take the malaria drug plus the azithromycin is if they do get the virus the azithromycin helps with the infection part whereas the malaria drug sort of prevents it from your body from going nuts. And then the zinc has some benefit too.
Let's see. What about cruise ships? Oh let me talk about an idea. I'm not sure if I totally understand this but somebody on the internet was suggesting that if we don't have a better plan that there's sort of an emergency backup plan. So we hope we'll have a better plan that would have you know therapeutics and vaccines sooner than we think and you know stuff like that. But maybe, maybe not.
So the other plan is to put people in, let's say put them in a hotel or put them in a cruise ship or put them in someplace that they're only together and they don't leave, with the idea of intentionally infecting them. So the idea would be to put groups, clusters of people who volunteered to say living in an apartment or a hotel or some identified space with the express intention of infecting them but to also infect them lightly so that they don't get the full dose, which apparently makes a big difference. If you're just marinating in the virus it will take

over your immune system pretty quickly and you're in bad shape. If you get a little trace of the virus and your immune system gets a little bit of warning before the virus gets too big then it's a fair fight. So there seems to be a big difference whether you get it early or whether you get a little bit of dose or a big dose even though both of them can infect you. So the idea would be to give peo…
