Come on man  Trump met with people at his golf resort and a member of the Brazil’s President Jair Bolsonaro delegation that accompanied him had tested positive after a meeting Trump,

 

Don said he wont get tested.  WHY?  

 

Lindsey Graham was their too and Self Quarantined himself

Two wrongs don't make it right

 

The economy tanked under Bush and Barry's Admin slowly dug it out AND had a Viral outbreak while doing so.  

 

What happened to  

America First?  We have the best, the brightest?

 

Vietnam is handling the COVID-19 better than the US.  

 

If this shite hits the heartland and tests are unavailable  

 

Dumbass won't get re-elected 

Tests are not the problem, Bozo. The Left and MSM has been portraying that as the truth when it is not. They are conflating "need" with "want". Everyone that wants a test cannot have one. That would overburden our resources. Everyone who needs a test will get one based on a doctor's determination. If anything is in short supply it is the labs to process the tests. We are now in the process of allowing states and private concerns to do the work. On another note, both the governors of CA and NY have praised the cooperation of the federal government with them.

 

BTW, you need to learn a little bit about the history of the economy and the N1H1 virus and how things transpired.

He has no underlying health issues, no symptoms, and is surrounded by the best medical team in the world nearly 24/7 (as all POTUSes are). This is such a nothing concern, it's comical.

 

The moment the doc thinks it's necessary, he'll get tested. Whether or not we ever hear about it is a different story.

Unfortunately, he is probably right...........

Unfortunately there's also a positive correlation between suicide rates and economic downturns.

ROME — The local chef did not expect police to swoop in when he paused to take a picture of this city's renowned Spanish Steps, which for once were free of hordes of tourists as a result of Italy's sweeping coronavirus lockdown.

But officers handed Andrea Misseri a fine of between 60 and 80 euros (around $70 to $90) because he didn’t have the correct permission to leave his home.

Many countries such as UK, US, EU are likely not doing enough testing but I think the trajectory is clear.


My take-home point is threefold:
1) We are not on some magic island, we are in the same boat.  We are on the same trajectory as other countries in the world, and unless we want to be where Italy is ~2 weeks from now, we MUST act immediately.   Individuals must take responsibility for "social distancing".    Do not panic, but do not be "That Guy" who feels he should go about life as usual, fly off to go on vacation, dress up as a Smurf to attend a Guinness World Record attempt.  Stay home from clubs and concerts.  Do not B word if your community cancels the St Pats parade - call up the city and B word if it does not. 

2) If you think you will get a mild disease like flu, Good for You.  You will be infectious 1-2 days before you show any symptoms.  Stay home anyway - as an Italian doctor said "Have Mercy for the older people and the chronically ill people you Can Exterminate".

Don’t you ever tire of looking at everything Trump related as being a world ending crisis?

No, test kits are not the problem. Also, see my post above answering Bob In Michigan for further explanation. 

 

Are you in the field?   

 

I'm leaning on what Hap says   sorry

Isn't it something like every time unemployment rises 1% 40,000 people die... 

(not all from suicide of course)

 

I don't think there are conclusive studies showing a direct link, but it is one of the more obvious eye tests of economic downturns. 

 

The bad news doesn't have to be limited to deaths.  How many people will lose jobs, how many will contract other sicknesses, how many families will break up, how many will lose homes?
