  • Let's kick it off

  • with some good news first. The FDA has just approved

  • a new coronavirus test due to start shipping this week.

  • And this test will dramatically decrease the wait time

  • for results, all right, down from a few days

  • to a mere 45 minutes.

  • Which is no time at all.

  • That's just the time you take to wash your hands

  • if you're doing it right.

  • Also, as doctors are treating more patients,

  • they're learning more about the disease

  • and ways that they can help people self-diagnose earlier.

  • For example, doctors are now saying

  • that a loss of smell or taste

  • can be a symptom of coronavirus. Completely true. Yeah.

  • So if you thought your husband's chronic farting problem

  • suddenly got better, you in danger, girl.

  • Is it just me, though, or does it seem like the disease

  • has more specific symptoms every day? Right?

  • 'Cause first-- first they were like,

  • "Okay, it's flu-like symptoms" then they said,

  • "No, it is cough, but it's a dry cough" and now it's like,

  • "You lose your sense of smell."

  • Pretty soon it's gonna be like, "Apparently coronavirus

  • "makes your right butt cheek really large

  • "and your left butt cheek gets all lopsided and twitchy.

  • "Then you got to go to the hospital if that happens.

  • "You're gonna be falling every time you sit down.

  • Whoa, corona, whoa."

  • Oh, here's some really good news.

  • For all those people who are stressing

  • about running out of toilet paper,

  • there's a new online toilet paper calculator

  • that will help people figure out how long your supply will last

  • so that you-you can stop hoarding.

  • Yeah, because right now some people

  • have bought so much toilet paper

  • they can probably pass it down in their will.

  • Just be like, "And to my grandchildren,

  • "I bequeath my fine collection

  • "of Charmin Ultra Soft

  • "that I bought during the corona crisis

  • "of 2020.

  • (coughs)"

  • So that's the good news.

  • The bad news is that the coronavirus world tour

  • is still in full swing.

  • In India, Prime Minister Modi

  • has ordered a 100 million people under lock down.

  • That's right. An entire bus in India

  • is not allowed to move.

  • And in Germany, Chancellor Angela Merkel

  • became the first European leader to self-quarantine.

  • And the country has banned groups of more than two people

  • from gathering, which is really unfortunate for Germans,

  • because you realize it takes at least five people

  • to get in or out of lederhosen.

  • Like, leather pants are no joke. You can't do that alone.

  • Now, the big international news today is over in Japan,

  • where the Summer Olympics

  • look like they're being postponed until 2021.

  • Yeah.

  • They're postponing the Olympic Games.

  • Meanwhile, Tom and Linda

  • are going forward with their game night as planned.

  • Yeah, I thought I'd gotten out of it,

  • but now they want me to "do it over Skype."

  • Unbelievable. How do you even play game night over Skype?

  • W-Which cards do you have? That's the point of the game.

  • Got to show you my cards so you know what cards have,

  • and then I'm playing with my cards at home...

  • Just cancel, Tom and Linda! Just cancel.

  • But in I was Japan, I would have still held the games

  • even if all the other countries dropped out,

  • 'cause think about it--

  • if everybody else is out,

  • you win gold in every event.

  • Although they also come last in every event.

  • Yeah, but still, I mean, you just sing the national anthem

  • and... for winners and...

  • Either way, I would have held the event.

  • The other way to save the Olympics is you can just do it

  • over Zoom or Skype like everything else right now,

  • you know?

  • Just have all the gymnasts doing their thing in different places.

  • They could all describe it to each other. You know?

  • Just be like, (American accent): "Okay, hi, everybody, am I on?

  • "Can you see me? I'm gonna do...

  • I'm gonna do a f... a back flip right now."

  • (German accent): "Sorry, what-what did you say?

  • "I can't hear you. You breaking up, you're breaking up.

  • Did you-did you just say... did you say 'dog shit'?

  • (American accent): "No, I said back flip.

  • I'm gonna do a back flip."

  • (Russian accent): "Hey, guys, it's Katerina here.

  • I just got on. Is it my turn to do force flip yet?"

  • (American accent): "No, I... It's my... I'm doing the thi...

  • You know what, let-let..."

  • (normal accent): Personally, I think they should

  • just turn social distancing into an Olympic sport.

  • Yeah. We can watch that.

  • Have you watched people these days? Huh?

  • When they're walking down the street,

  • going to the grocery store. Every time someone gets

  • within six feet of them, they're basically doing Olympic moves.

  • (grunting)

  • Now, despite coronavirus

  • being one of the most stressful situations

  • the world has ever experienced,

  • it has also given us

  • moments of pure comedy gold.

  • For instance, in Italy,

  • despite being one of the hardest-hit countries,

  • with 60,000 confirmed cases, some Italians

  • are still going out,

  • living their normal lives and having fun.

  • Which is not only irresponsible,

  • it's stressing a lot of people out. Right?

  • And so a lot of Italian mayors and local leaders

  • have started posting videos

  • yelling at people to go back home.

  • Yo, I got to say, I love how direct Italians are.

  • Because in America, mayors are like,

  • "Please help to flatten the curve

  • "to limit your excursions to only essential travel.

  • Please, we know people aren't doing this. We need you."

  • And in Italy, they're just like, "Get the (bleep) inside.

  • "I'll knock your teeth in.

  • "You don't listen me. Why you don't listen?

  • "I'm going to come there and punch you in the face.

  • "I'm going to... going to break you.

  • You're mine, and I'm going to break you."

  • Now, while leaders in Italy are threatening

  • to come and kick their constituents' ass,

  • the residents of Spain seem to be a little more well-behaved.

  • And so, to reward the citizens stuck at home,

  • the police are driving around

  • and performing for people in the streets.

  • (Policeman speaks Spanish)

  • (people speak Spanish)

  • (Policeman speaks Spanish)

  • Uno, dos, tres.

  • (singing lively song in Spanish, rhythmic clapping)

  • Oh. You see?

  • That's nice.

  • That's a really nice thing for those police to do,

  • and something that would never work in the U.S.A.

  • Can you imagine that?

  • Police driving out, jumping out of their cars,

  • with instruments playing for people?

  • As soon as black people start clapping,

  • the cops would lose their shit, and just be like,

  • "And we're here to sing for you."

  • And black people would be like, "Yay!" Be like,

  • "Shots fired! Shots fired! Shots fired!"

  • Be like, "Yo, man, I was clapping."

  • "Put your hands down!"

  • "I can't. They're my hands, man!

  • They're my hands!"

  • All right, so, that's some

  • of what's going on around the world.

  • So let's switch gears and catch up

  • on everything over here in the U.S.

  • Over the past few days,

  • more high-profile people have tested positive for coronavirus.

  • Andy Cohen has coronavirus.

  • Senator Rand Paul has coronavirus.

  • Even Harvey Weinstein, who's in prison,

  • has tested positive for coronavirus,

  • which makes coronavirus the first thing

  • that's come into contact with Harvey Weinstein by choice.

  • Now, because Rand Paul tested positive,

  • a number of senators who came into contact with him

  • quarantined themselves out of precaution.
