To be fair, there are not a lot of people going in and out of the country. Not saying that they are accurate in that there are no cases, just saying that when you have tight border security in and out, it makes it easier to contain any threats.

Shooting someone as they cross the border is better than a vaccine I guess. It's called curing without testing.

No need to stock millions of test kits.

Coronavirus Is the 'Chinese Virus'

by Ben Shapiro

 

Original Article

 

This week, President Donald Trump came under fire for his use of the phrase "Chinese virus" to describe the coronavirus, the source of the new pandemic that has led to a global economic shutdown as well as lockdowns of citizens in every major Western country. That media have somehow found time to hone in on the one issue that matters least -- the labeling of a Chinese virus as such -- in the middle of an unprecedented planetwide freeze demonstrates the utter unseriousness of those objecting. That the term should be controversial at all is nearly beyond belief. The virus did indeed originate in China.

The ones they do have though are 100% effective. We can learn a lot from "The Best Korea". 

 

You have that wrong. There is no need for test kits because they never get sick.

Ah, but you misunderstand. They only get sick if their perfect society gets infiltrated by people from the birdless countries of the west. They don't bother to test their own people unless they have broken some kind of law, and then test them in the same way they do foreigners. Their AK-47 test kit is 100% effective and stops the infected people in their tracks, so to speak.

SITUATION CRITICAL: THE WH PRESS AT WORK

I have posted the video of this morning’s daily White House press briefing below. One reporter poses a single question about the Wall Street Journal report concerning Trump’s efforts to overcome regulatory hurdles to therapies (at 43:00). President Trump stated that he hadn’t seen the Journal article but that “we are making a lot of progress therapeutically.” There was no follow-up question on the subject of possible therapies or regulatory relief. (The current version of the Journal story adds that “there w[ill] be a news conference Thursday involving the FDA.”)

 

Two reporters raise hostile questions on the propriety of attributing the Wuhan virus to China. Adopting the Chinese Communist propaganda line, they imply or state that calling the virus Chinese is racist.

 

In a subsequent question Reuters correspondent Jeff Mason picks up the theme peddled most prominently by the Washington Post’s Robert Costa. As posed by Mason, the question is a two-fer. It both slams Trump for earlier minimizing the threat of the Wuhan virus and it disparages conservatives for believing Trump. Well done, Jeff.

 

Taken together, the reporters’ questions reveal mind-numbing ignorance and mediocrity. If these reporters were capable of introspection and self-criticism, they might set off an epidemic of embarrassment and shame.

 

 

 

 

 

More here: At press briefing, Trump and aides asked four times whether ‘Chinese virus’ is racist.

 

“America is in the grip of a viral pandemic that originated in China. The virus is in more than 120 countries and has killed more than 8,000 people precisely because of China’s incompetence and malicious arrogance.

 

And two White House correspondents used their access to the leader of the free world Wednesday to waste his and everyone else’s time with inane, vapid, useless questions based on Chinese communist propaganda. Way to go.”

Ilhan Omar praises Trump's 'incredible' response to coronavirus pandemic

By Gregg Re | Fox News

 

Minnesota Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar unexpectedly praised President Trump's handling of the coronavirus pandemic on Wednesday night, saying it was "incredible and the right response in this critical time."

Omar, normally a staunch critic of the White House who herself has repeatedly drawn the president's ire, went on to quote Rep. Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass., as saying "unprecedented times require unprecedented leadership" -- and, Omar added, "we are seeing that in our country right now."

"Finally, we should never let politics get in the way of good policy," Omar concluded. "This is a great start and hope others will be part of a united front to push for good policies that will help us work through the economic anxiety the country is feeling right now."

Omar was responding to a post by The Intercept's Lee Fang, who noted: "Trump suspending mortgage foreclosures, demanding cash payments to Americans, now invoking the Defense Production Act to force private firms to produce needed supplies is incredible. Kind of a shell shock for anyone who reported on any economic policies in the Obama years."
