Summary from CNN:
On Tuesday, a Justice Department memo was sent out to US attorneys nationwide saying any individual who purposely spreads COVID-19 could be charged with terrorism for the “purposeful exposure and infection of others.” Deputy Attorney General Jeffrey Rosen said in the memo to federal law enforcement agencies and US attorneys that “such acts potentially could implicate the Nation’s terrorism-related statutes.”“Threats or attempts to use COVID-19 as a weapon against Americans will not be tolerated,” Rosen said. The memo stresses the steps that the federal government is willing to take as the virus continues to spread in the US. Rosen also said those who are scamming people and attempting to sell fake cures will face consequences. “Capitalizing on this crisis to reap illicit profits or otherwise preying on Americans is reprehensible and will not be tolerated,” Rosen wrote.

It is easier with bacteria because they are alive cells inside the humans body, so an "precise" posion like antibiotica can kill them , the problem with virii is that they are innert until they attach to an cell to take over by injecting there own information to reprogramm that cell to produce copies of them self. So the only time you can really do something about them is while they are inert and not alive in the biological sense, they do not exchange matter with there sourroundings. So the only way to remove them is by relying on the immune systhem of the body or use serum from people who survived the diesease (and it is way more complicated than that)

Yep, the common misconception underlying this idea and many others is that a virus behaves in people and by extension in a populaton exactly as it behaves in a lab. It doesn't. Tests in labs can give us clues about some characteristics of a virus, but they can never give us a full picture. So far it seems as if the virus is not heat resistant, but many are unaware of what that actually means. One study showed the virus to become inactive after exposure to 60 degrees Celsius for at least 30 minutes. If we get those temperatures in the summer, we will have other problems than the virus.

11:11 Trump says disinfectant not bleach. I was quoting Devin. But the point is that most people connect 'disinfectant' with house hold cleaners such as bleach. The whole point of this video was to establish liability for wording which may be harmful to others. While I do not believe that Trump is being intentionally harmful to other, by speaking in the public forum as the president he is in a position of trust, ie people will trust what he says to be accurate and precise. I have no problem with what Trump said even if he had literally said 'bleach' I still would not have had an issue. My issue is when he said it. Those kind of thoughts are not for a press conference. They are for a behind the scenes meeting with experts. That is the forum for suggestions. Not press conferences.

DEAR L.E. VIDEO EDITOR: I see you trying to mask the jump cuts by punching in and out. But, uh, you're doing it wrong. You gotta put the anchor point on the host's face, because that's where we're looking. In my experience, the forehead is the best spot. And since he's off to the right side, it may work best to put it above his (stage) right eye. ALSO, for the effect to work best, you gotta punch in and out farther. Yours are at about 10% right now. Do twice that. Trust me. What this does, is simulates having a completely different camera. In ye olden days, you'd have a wide shot camera, a close up camera, and a kinda 3/4 shot camera. These days, a 4k camera can act as wide and close up at the same time. So yeah. Think of it like that. Also, you could just get another camera, buuut, it's probably more hassle than it's worth. -Your friendly neighborhood video editor.

The antibiotic resistant bacteria are not going to wipe out mankind. The much shorter average life expectancy in the era before antibiotics only greatly slowed the rate of population growth. Plagues did come around now and then and wipe out something like 1/3rd the population but the trend continued up on the average. Civilization may drop back to a much earlier model with a lot less travel etc but the species will survive.

[@sc4344]

In my opinion there will always be in any species ones that are genetically wired in such a way that they will be close to totally immunity. I believe there are people out there unbeknown to them that have recovered from cancer and various other diseases like aids. They never get ill so never have tests. There was one study I read about quite some time ago about a small village in the UK whereby they had natural immunity to the plague of 1665 the descents still living to this day. Top athletes are only as they are due to their make up. You could practice for years and still not even be close and they call this natural talent. The horse that went unbeaten had an oversized heart you get the idea.
