Here we go again, alcohol/bleach hording.

the guy Rogan had on his podcast the other day: "we basically waited until the house was on fire to consider building a fire truck"

Pretty much.  

Adjusting for population size, South Korea's 19,000 tests per day would scale up to about 125,000 per day in America.  

Imagine going back to 3-4 weeks ago and trying to raise the alarm on that.  Imagine trying to convince U.S. politicians to start working on that program immediately (which includes paying for the whole thing).  They would have laughed at you.  Those people don't believe in inconvenient facts.  They act like managing the country & dealing with a crisis is somebody else's problem.

It is someone else's problem, because when the SHTF theyll be taken care of, we the common peasants will have to fend for ourselves.

As for this pandemic being a hoax, I completely agree.  What isnt a hoax is the impact this is having on the economy and people like myself who face being laid off because we as a people would rather give in to hysteria than foster common sense...

Thank you, Myk.
I call bullshit on this. Someone with a LOT of influence lit this fire for their own gain. The whole shitshow is nothing compared to the results of the P A N I C surrounding it.

Nice red herring. You're so easily triggered.

[Mike DC]

      
The govt's incompetent response to the situation is not funny.   Americans will probably die because of it.  It hasn't happened yet but the virus has not really hit America yet.    


Look at the situation in Italy right now.  They are choosing which patients to treat (try to keep alive).  The disease hit the place too fast (not enough testing & quarantining) and they didn't have enough medical people & resources ready to handle it.  This kind of thing CAN and WILL happen in America if we're not careful.  

Testing 8 people per day in a country of 340 million - this is not being careful.  
Calling it a hoax - this is not stepping up to the plate and managing a problem.  
FFS, we already have outbreaks in multiple states.    



It's all a joke until your loved one is dying from it.

I'm not obsessed.... I live in Canada for crissakes....couldn't care any less, but I thought it was pretty humorous so I researched just for fun to "fact check" a few of the above quotes ?
and guess what ?
Trump said every single one of them ver batim.... and on the same dates quoted no less !

And here I thought us Canadian's had a complete lock on having the biggest nit-wit running our Country ?
Apparently we're #2 to you guys ?

Where did those numbers come from?    I can't find any articles that give any numbers.
Edit, now found some data.  Actually, a lot of the same things happened.

[Mike DC]

    

The entire world has not spent 2 months all worked up about this virus just to spite Donald Trump.  


This is an actual problem.  They do happen sometimes.  

[b5blue]

"H1N1" 1918 Influenza was the first true pandemic, back then if you caught it you were dead in 48 hours if your body couldn't defend.

[stripedelete]

Not sure "pandemic" has anything to do with deaths.

[stripedelete]

They announced  the first case in our county around 1pm today.   

The local bar was full at 4pm.
