he's exactly right. why do you disagree? If containment doesn't stop it, why have containment? Maybe containment makes it worse. things no one knows right? no one. if you think you have the market you're delusional as usual.

Ground zero is Wuhan China. fk I hate this stupid virus you keep trying to pass along.
The US has been dropping the ball on preparedness for years and the Trump administration has just followed suit. The 2019 report just like the ones the year before, and all the ones in prior years went unheeded. If you look back at a timeline of events following the Dec 31st announcement by China, you'll see that practically nothing was done in the US other than denying entrance to the US from China. For 2 months the government tried to plan for the inevitable, by creating committees, revising obsolete CDC rules, bringing on board advisers to monitor the situation. In South Korea days before the first case was found in the country, the government had ordered test kits, protective wear, alerted hospitals and put into affect a response to cases that were yet to be found. In effect, teams of investigators were ready to and testing unit teams sat waiting to go.CDC dropped the ball on the testing. The US should've gone with the WHO recommendation and the test kit developed by Germany.
Damnit.
Testing blunders crippled US response as coronavirus spread
WASHINGTON (AP) — A series of missteps at the nation's top public health agency caused a critical shortage of reliable laboratory tests for the coronavirus, hobbling the federal response as the pandemic spread across the country like wildfire, an Associated Press review found.apnews.com

Meanwhile, in the US the CDC was struggling with the question of what should we do to prepare and the White House was struggling with the question of whether anything should be done at all. Not until March, did the federal government actually start doing much of anything. Infected countries were ban entrance to the US but by then people were bringing the virus into the country and homegrown cases were spreading.
“The United States will remain vulnerable to the next flu pandemic or large-scale outbreak of a contagious disease that could lead to massive rates of death and disability, severely affect the world economy, strain international resources, and increase calls on the United States for support.”
Well, for a bun ch of unprepared amateurs, the USA is doing pretty damned good so far, except for the blue states, of course.The US has been dropping the ball on preparedness for years and the Trump administration has just followed suit.

That's like saying if the first battle does not destroy the enemy then we'll surrender. Long before we had vaccines, antivirals, and personal protection, we had separation, a simple but very effective method of of bringing epidemics under control. A virus spread through the air can not be transmitted without having another person close by to receive it. In China and South Korea, separating people has proven to be very effective with this virus and there is no reason why it will not be effective in the US.
what's honest? not one thing in his post was honest. dude. too fking funnyNot sure why a critique is necessarily unpatriotic if it is honest.son, you are so unpatriotic it's sad.The US has been dropping the ball on preparedness for years and the Trump administration has just followed suit.

no, the mortality rate is 24 deaths divided by the population size. and that ain't anywhere near 1.3% not even .00013%
son, 320 million people and 600 deaths is not an epidemic.

And thank you Flopper for staying rational (for a libster), even keeled and easy to converse with.
You, Care4All, Mac58, and OldLady are liberals that I hope my liberal daughter could emulate.
Doesnt work that way.

The current number of cases in the US is 52,400 with 673 deaths. The number cases is increasing 25% to 40% per day, the fastest in the world. That is an epidemic.
