By tomorrow we will certainly have more cases than Japan, despite them getting the disease about a month earlier than we did. The solution is simple. Test in mass, and quarantine immediately. We are not testing enough so we don't know who to quarantine. Third world countries are testing more than we are. The federal response is beyond incompetent. This is going to get bad very quickly.
Yeah, Singapore might have 200 cases and France and German 10x more, but those countries have more than 10x the population of Singapore.
It might have a point about Italy, but not those two countries.
This is like posting shit from the WaPo that Conor thinks is gospel. These people are sick with hoping this virus gets worse and hurts America because of their intense hatred for the President.
I think everything happening right now is an over reaction. All the people I have seen interviewed coming out of quarantine say they had a fever and not much else. Yes, it's a cause for concern and to be cautious. People like you love the doom and gloom and hope this hurts Trump. That in itself is really sad. My wife has a sister just like you and she is in her glory right now. Of course, she lives off the government and loves to bash Trump too.
I'm worried about my elderly parents, not the political outcome. To suggest otherwise is beyond insulting and fuck you for suggesting it.
...and Japan is more populous than any European nation.
Luckily I bought a lot of toilet paper...so I’m safe.
This isn't Polio or Smallpox. It's also not the Spanish Flu that killed the young and healthy. More testing and quarantines would be helpful, sure, but I wouldn't go all authoritarian on it. At this point the biggest concern is the panic it is creating.
Also, "running its course" likely means 2% of all Americans die and a significant portion of survivors (at least 10%) will likely have permanent lung damage. You are okay with that?
And our over-regulation hampers the ability of private enterprise to attack the problem.

We wouldn't be counting on private enterprise if it was an invading army of humans instead of viruses. The federal gov't should lead in this scenario, and they are not.
