EU experts said on Thursday (27 February) that refusing entry to an EU country of people with coronavirus symptoms would be counterproductive and ineffective to prevent the spread of the virus.
Refusal of entry is not considered an appropriate preventive measure as the virus would spread further since those potential patients would keep moving in the region without being treated, EU sources said.

The principle of free movement of people in the EU was already in danger in 2015 when some member states introduced border check due to the migration crisis. [ ]

They confuse a daily 3' rise and fall in the tide with a tsunami that is coming, but has not hit them yet, and they cannot see.
But they will
What is really important is the genetic susceptibility of a population group to a given specific pathogen. Its not politically correct but to understand the real impact and spread of the COVID-19 corona virus, it is critically important to define the race of the victims. The CDC and the MSM have been studiously avoiding releasing such data to the American public. What are they hiding?
Folks who still compare CV to the flu don’t understand the difference between linear and exponential growth.
Well said. (Not that you need an attaboy, but I stuck with what I decided to say even after I saw who the poster was). That is worth saying again.

“EU experts have lost their minds.
Any clues on their location is appreciated.”

Singapore doesnt have EU's politically correct experts.
They’re criminally insane.
Misleading bordering on our right lie
The CDC initially developed and mailed testing kits with three components, or reagents, to detect the COVID-19 virus. Some states had trouble validating one of three components in the kits.
