I cant say about the total number of deaths, but the lib claim that Puerto Rico was neglected is a damn lie

41 percent of Trump voters say administration failed in some way in Hurricane Maria response
41 percent of Trump voters say administration failed in some way in Hurricane Maria response

Forty-one percent of people who voted for President Trump said he failed in some way in responding to Hurricane Maria on Puerto Rico last year, according to a Hill.TV poll.

The survey, conducted by Hill.TV and the Harris X polling company, found that 15 percent of Trump voters said the government did enough during the hurricane but did not do enough during the storm's aftermath.

Another 15 percent of Trump voters said the government did not do enough during the hurricane but did enough during the aftermath.

Eleven percent of Trump voters said the government did not do enough during and after the storm, while 59 percent said the government did enough during and after.

Trump has faced backlash for his administration's response to Hurricane Maria, which caused widespread damage in Puerto Rico last year.

The survey comes after Trump ignited a firestorm about Hurricane Maria's death toll last week when he accused Democrats, without evidence, of inflating the death count from Hurricane Maria.

"3000 people did not die in the two hurricanes that hit Puerto Rico. When I left the Island, AFTER the storm had hit, they had anywhere from 6 to 18 deaths," Trump tweeted. "As time went by it did not go up by much. Then, a long time later, they started to report really large numbers, like 3000."
.....................................................................................................................
The death count was in fact approx. 3,000.

I am not impressed by lib biased polls

Its obvious that the commie virus has been in America for many months

Does it make you feel better about the admin's failure to prepare the country to call it a "commie virus?"

Here is a liberal democrat calling the travel bad bigoted

do you agree or disagree?

NEW YORK >> The White House overruled health officials who wanted to recommend that elderly and physically fragile Americans be advised not to fly on commercial airlines because of the new coronavirus, a federal official told The Associated Press.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention submitted the plan this week as a way of trying to control the virus, but White House officials ordered the air travel recommendation be removed, said the official who had direct knowledge of the plan. Trump administration officials have since suggested certain people should consider not traveling, but they have stopped short of the stronger guidance sought by the CDC.

The person who spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity did not have authorization to talk about the matter. The person did not have direct knowledge about why the decision to kill the language was made.

It is a commie virus

America has done a good job of dealing with the virus so far

It's a global virus now. The more information comes out the more we know with absolute certainty the Trump admin did a terrible job of preparing for the spread of the virus.

Thats bullshit

this commie virus will be far more damaging to the world economy than the number deaths it claims

few will die but everyone will be harmed by the financial damage it causes

so you better brace for that and btw, rethink your worship of global trade with china

What went wrong with the coronavirus tests in the U.S.
Since Renee Schwartz developed shortness of breath and a severe cough two weeks ago, she has been trying desperately to get a coronavirus test. She has already been tested for the flu — she was negative — and other problems have been ruled out. But while her doctor thinks a test is warranted, she told Schwartz she does not have access to any tests.

“I feel like crap,” said Schwartz, 60, of North Hills, Calif. “I want to know, why can’t I get this test?”

While the stories of people who are sick but can’t get tested get widespread attention, President Trump presented the situation very differently on a Friday afternoon visit to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta.


“Anybody that needs a test gets a test. Anybody that needs a test. They are all set; they have them out there,” Trump said. “As of right now, and yesterday, anybody that needs a test can get one.”

Production is ramping up, but tests — and the labs and equipment necessary to run them — are still very limited. Even where test kits are available, many states are following strict criteria for who should be tested to avoid overwhelming their labs.

Interviews with a dozen laboratory experts and government health officials reveal a six-week series of glitches, missed opportunities and delays that contributed to the shortage.

“They’ve simply lost time they can’t make up. You can’t get back six weeks of blindness,” said Jeremy Konyndyk, who oversaw the international response to Ebola during the Obama administration and is a senior policy fellow at the Center for Global Development. “To the extent that there’s someone to blame here, the blame is on poor, chaotic management from the White House and failure to acknowledge the big picture.”

Senator Chris Murphy says government has "no concept of the scope" of coronavirus spread

Washington — Connecticut Democratic Senator Chris Murphy lambasted the Trump administration for its handling of the coronavirus outbreak and said the federal government has "no concept" of the virus' spread due to a lack of extensive testing.

Connecticut is one of the 33 states with confirmed cases of coronavirus, though Murphy believes there could be "hundreds if not thousands" of additional unknown cases in his home state.

"I think we have no concept of the scope of this epidemic yet because we have not been able to test," Murphy said Sunday on "Face the Nation." "The fact of the matter is we can't make good judgments about the measures we should be taking in Seattle or Danbury or Hartford unless we are able to do these tests."

What the liberals are hoping for. Traitors to this country.

oooOOOooo now i get it..............


you're insane.

 

[playtime]

You act as though saying that has some meaning material to the c-virus outbreak.

It does.

Vaccine
COVID-19: No vaccine is available at this time, though it is in progress.

Flu: A vaccine is available and effective to prevent some of the most dangerous types or to reduce the severity of the flu.

Infections
COVID-19: Approximately 102,472 cases worldwide; 340 cases in the U.S. as of Mar. 7, 2020.

Flu: Estimated 1 billion cases worldwide; 9.3 million to 45 million cases in the U.S. per year.

Deaths
COVID-19: Approximately 3,491 deaths reported worldwide; 14 deaths in the U.S., as of Mar. 7, 2020. [19 now @ the time of posting this]

Flu: 291,000 to 646,000 deaths worldwide; 12,000 to 61,000 deaths in the U.S. per year.

The COVID-19 situation is changing rapidly. Since this disease is caused by a new virus, people do not have immunity to it, and a vaccine may be many months away. Doctors and scientists are working on estimating the mortality rate of COVID-19, but at present, it is thought to be higher than that of most strains of the flu.
Coronavirus Disease 2019 vs. the Flu

Another difference: Covid-19 generally seems to lead to more severe disease than seasonal flu strains, in part because people have no immune protection against the new virus, Tedros said. Flu infections generally kill “far fewer than 1% of those infected,” Tedros said, but as of now, about 3.4% of Covid-19 cases have been fatal. (The fatality rate for Covid-19 is considered preliminary, especially given that experts are not sure how many mild cases are going undetected by health systems.)

The coronavirus, Tedros said, “causes more severe illness than flu, there are not yet any vaccines or therapeutics, and it can be contained — which is why we must do everything we can to contain it.”
WHO: Coronavirus is different from influenza and can be contained - STAT

(The fatality rate for Covid-19 is considered preliminary, especially given that experts are not sure how many mild cases are going undetected by health systems.)

right. preliminary. with no vaccine & at least a year away from a vaccine. since this is a brand spanking new bug - - - hopefully it won't mutate.

Do you look behind the shower curtain when you go in the bathroom or check under the bed before laying down? You people are paranoid, which is okay, except you are destroying the economy with this nonsense.

Nursing home grappling with coronavirus outbreak struggles for answers
STACY CHEN ABC NewsMarch 7, 2020

"We cannot make any promises that further exposure in the center is not happening," Tim Killian, a spokesperson for Life Care Center, said at a press conference on Saturday.

Since the first COVID-19 case was reported at the facility on Feb. 19, 26 Life Care residents have died, with at least half of those attributable to the virus. In Washington state, 16 total people have died because of the virus, by far the most of any state in the U.S., where it's killed 19.

Life Care, in Kirkland, Washington, has received 45 test kits and asked for more. More than 60 residents are still living there.

Killian called the facility's staffers "heroes," adding, "This is a larger issue than just our facility."

You hope 11 million will die before election day and sweep trump out of office

but the death rate in south korea is .6%

YOUR hopes are NOT our hopes!!!!
And we are NOT S Korea!
According to Tramp we have 149 confirmed USA cases and 14 dead for a 9+% USA death rate.

according to ABC news:

As of Friday night, 19 passengers on the ship are confirmed to have coronavirus and 46 people have been tested, Vice President Mike Pence said at a press conference Friday.

The first two East Coast coronavirus-related deaths were reported in Florida Friday. The U.S. coronavirus death toll now stands at 17, with at least 325 cases confirmed in 26 states.
1st coronavirus case confirmed in Utah, NBA tells teams to prepare for empty arenas

CNN reported this morning that 21 passengers tested positive.

I strongly suspect the death toll will be very low

and only a fraction of the deaths from swine flu under obama in 2009

in that epidemic - which the pro obama lib news media played down - 200,000 Americans were hospitalized and 10,000 died

10,000 H1N1 Swine Flu Deaths

is your strong suspicion based on donny's hunch?

In part, along with the few facts stumbling out of media reports

there is an exit to this new virus

is your belief that we’re all gonna die based on the hysteria being promoted by the anti trump news media and democrats?

i never said that is my belief, jr. the rest is drivel & is dismissed based on complete bullshit. my belief is donny is ignoring the science & the facts about what IS happening & the incompetency is directly affecting those who are sick & have died.

Tramp has said he doesn't want the people on the ocean liner to come on land to keep the total USA case numbers down so we can logically assume he is doing everything he can behind our backs to keep the real total infected from us!!!

We dont want to introduce more virus carriers into the US until they have been tested and cleared

thats common sense

they have been tested & confirmed to be positive. he's lying about the numbers infected, he's lying about the numbers of deaths & he's only concerned about his PR.

There is no reason for trump to lie

What the public will remember is how many die and that cannot be hidden

and if he did lie liberal democrat spies within the CDC would break a leg running to the news media

no reason to lie?
