Look I know the right wing is on to harping on the death toll since nothing else seems to be sticking, but it has nothing to do with Trump's so called "ban". It was a restriction.
40K people flock home in a panic from China on airlines and crowd into airports, a lot of them sick and instead of testing, tracing, and quarantining, out into the wind they scattered.
Welcome to your pandemic. Could have largely nipped it in the bud right there. Maybe full scale shutdowns wouldn't have been necessary. The fact that we are a first world nation and
our infection rate continues to climb and death our toll is the highest in the world is absolutely pathetic. A lack of leadership that started right in the Oval Office and continues to this day.
But I know you true believers will never give your savior any of the blame. And I don't give a shit what Sweden did or didn't do. We're lucky we had governors, mayors, and business leaders
who took action when your boy was too busy holding his pep rallies and golfing.
Nothing but the DEATH TOLL is "sticking"? What does that even mean?
If the travel ban/restriction/whatever was not effective, why do countries who did not impose one have so much higher death toll rates.
You say we have the highest number of deaths which means that you believe China, how cute!
While President Trump was taking action, we know what the Democrats were doing, as usual whining and complaining that what Trump was doing was terrible.
Democrat Response to Coronavirus: End Trump’s Travel Bans on China, Iran
JOHN BINDER 11 Mar 2020 2:58
House and Senate Democrats are responding to the coronavirus outbreak in the United States by supporting measures to effectively strip President Trump of his authority to impose travel bans to protect American citizens.
While Trump has implemented travel bans on
China and
Iran — two of the most coronavirus-affected nations in the world — House Democrats are looking to roll back the president’s authority to enact travel bans from regions of the world.

Coronavirus: China’s 17 day delay in releasing genome sequence of COVID-19
Health authorities have issued a dire warning about coronavirus as it continues to spread rapidly across China and the world.

17 DAY DELAY
There was a 17 day delay in the release of critical information about coronavirus during the crucial early stages of the outbreak, it’s been revealed.
A group of scientists is now calling for changes in the way new viruses are reported.
In a letter to medical journal
The Lancet, the scientists said one of the important lessons from the outbreak was a delay in releasing information.
“The Chinese authorities ruled out SARS and MERS, as well as a few other non-coronaviruses, on January 5, and confirmed a novel coronavirus as a potential cause on January 9,” they said in the Lancet.
“However, the genome sequence — crucial for rapid development of diagnostics needed in an outbreak response — was not released until January 12, 2020 — 17 days after the preliminary sequence data were obtained.”
The World Health Organisation is warning the opportunity to stem the international spread of the coronavirus outbreak is fading

Dr. Ronny Jackson says Trump prevented American coronavirus pandemic on level of Italy, Iran
By
Yael Halon | Fox News
Former White House physician Dr. Ronny Jackson praised
President Trump Monday night after he
announced a list of guidelines that he and the White House coronavirus task force hoped will slow the spread of the
pandemic within 15 days.
"The president has done everything he needed to do in this case," Jackson told "
Hannity". "He’s acted quickly and decisively. He did what he always has done ... he went with his instincts."
"He put together a top-notch team and he was criticized.... despite that, he carried on and did what he needed to do for our country. He put the [China] travel ban in place," he added.
Jackson said he does not expect the virus to spread at the rate that it has in places like Italy and Iran due to the president's "quick and decisive actions," notably his decision to restrict travel into the U.S. from China in late January.
