I wonder if, after taking a wait and see approach to a highly transmittable virus in/around one of the largest cities in the world, in retrospect he wishes he had been much more aggressive in his approach. Given that the state established a quarantine zone in a suburb a few miles away, and given that travel back and forth to/from New Rochelle and Westchester/Rockland/Putnam counties and NYC is a way of life for many, he regrets not being much more proactive in establishing a zone around NYC. Finally, I wonder if his decision was impacted by Mayor DiBlasio, his views, and the relative power over the voting block and city that he represents. Something as simple as "Andy, these are your people, many could tell you every streetside deli from Brooklyn to Bensonhurat but couldn't point to Buffalo on a map. You shut this city down and the "$#!! hits the fan and political fallout is massive". Edited March 27, 2020 by leh-nerd skin-erd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiberius Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 A majority of Americans approve of President Donald Trump's handling of the coronavirus pandemic, according to a new survey, although an even larger number say he acted too slowly to halt to the public health crisis in its early days. An ABC News/Washington Post poll released on Friday reports that 51 percent of respondents view Trump's management of the outbreak in the United States favorably, with 36 percent approving strongly and 15 percent approving somewhat. Less than half of those surveyed, 45 percent, gave the president negative marks for his response efforts, with 36 disapproving strongly and 8 disapproving somewhat. Four percent had no opinion. However, 58 percent of Americans said Trump was initially "too slow to take action to address the problem," while 38 percent said he "acted with the right amount of speed" and 4 percent had no opinion on the issue. Trump was widely criticized as the deadly outbreak first began spreading in the U.S. for repeatedly minimizing its threat to the country. His administration has struggled to mount a comprehensive testing operation to better thwart the rapid spread of infection. https://www.politico.com/news/2020/03/27/poll-majority-approve-trump-coronavirus-response-151393 2 minutes ago, leh-nerd skin-erd said: I didn't question your credibility, I just didn't know that you were self-quarantining against common sense and rational thought.

Tiberius Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 We want Immigrants!!!! Come and save us! Quote State Dept. asks the world’s health workers to apply for U.S. visas and waives interview requirement, provoking outrage NAIROBI — Late Thursday, the State Department posted a request on its website and on Twitter to “encourage medical professionals seeking work in the U.S. on a work or exchange visitor visa (H or J), particularly those working on #COVID19 issues, to contact the nearest U.S. Embassy/Consulate for a visa appointment.” The announcement also indicated that those who were already in the United States on those visas should talk with their sponsors about extending them. Routine visa services at U.S. embassies across the world were suspended on March 20, as most embassies evacuated staff and shrank to skeleton staffs carrying out essential services. In a simultaneous missive on Thursday, the State Department also announced that in-person interviews will be waived for H-2 visas (which include medical professionals) for both returning and first-time applicants. The announcements were widely panned on social media by users across the world who accused the U.S. government of promoting a potentially deadly brain drain of doctors and nurses away from countries with weaker health systems. Others noted how difficult procuring these visas can be in normal times, often taking years to process, and were resentful that the rules would be changed so drastically in a moment of crisis. https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2020/03/27/coronavirus-latest-news/#link-WY7DWNH2X5BABB5OPM4QVVOKMU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
