Previous Bolsonaro statement:
"if I were to catch Covid-19, I would not feel anything, or at most a small flu. Given my athletic record." 

"No meu caso particular, pelo meu histórico de atleta, caso fosse contaminado pelo vírus, não precisaria me preocupar, nada sentiria ou seria, quando muito, acometido de uma gripezinha ou resfriadinho, como bem disse aquele conhecido médico daquela conhecida televisão"

from 3:16 to 3:37

Not going to wish for his death, but I sure do love a good object lesson.

Bad grass never dies? 

Spanish phrase, means that wicked people always seem to survive everything (literally or figuratively). Is there a similar phrase in English?

Only the good die young

*edit* which I think is actually from a song

*edit 2*. looked it up. it is a Billy Joel song, but comes from Herodotus

[Eddie Teach]

Only the good die young? I'm sure there's a closer approximation but I can't think of it right now.

I would translate mala hierba (the latter also spelled yerba) as weed. But yeah, what Celed said.

[merithyn]

how are the hospitals coping?  Is there a lot of ICUs left available?

Georgia reports 1,862 of 2,812 ventilators are available, with 642 of 2,863 critical care beds available, and 3,987 of 15,097 of general inpatient beds.

So 66% of ventilators are available, 22% of ICU beds, and 26% of regular inpatient beds.

That's horrifying, especially given in two weeks is going to be a hell of a lot worse.

But yes, let's open the country up. Totally worth the risk.
