    David Gorski, MD, PhD Retweeted Governor Christie

    It must be nice to be able to just "check yourself into a hospital" because you have mild symptoms from #COVID19. How many people in the US who didn't have your privilege suffered and died at home because there had no health insurance or there was no room for them at a hospital?https://twitter.com/GovChristie/status/1312510988478889985 …

    In consultation with my doctors, I checked myself into Morristown Medical Center this afternoon. While I am feeling good and only have mild symptoms, due to my history of asthma we decided this is an important precautionary measure.

        There might be karma in the universe after all, given that @GovChristie appears to have caught #COVID19 coaching @realDonaldTrump how to bully a stutterer in the debate and/or appointing a Supreme Court justice to help gut the #ACA and take health insurance away from millions.

        But, OK. @GovChristie can use his status to "just check himself into the hospital" because he's worried, given that his age, obesity, and asthma make him high risk for #COVID19 complications, while others are just told to go home and not come back unless they get short of breath.

        Sure, @GovChristie is correct to be worried. He's in a high risk group for serious #COVID19 complications and death. It's just that everyone should be able to have the same option he does but did not and do not because of @GOP policies and @realDonaldTrump.

        The overall optics on this are so bad for Republicans. Tweets like this one, gloating over his access to healthcare and pretending he's not obese, can't be helping.

        This is the same guy that closed nj beaches and then visited one with his family. This shouldn’t be shocking. The rules don’t apply to him.

        Not sure who put this together, it's one of my favs. Christie was on the closed beach about the time Trump was throwing paper towelspic.twitter.com/E6AlRInNwS

        My twins had dental surgery and both my mom and dad had major cardiac procedures at Morristown. It is one of best hospitals in NJ So yeah. Governor Christie is pretty darn fortunate
