I love Rush but on this thing I do believe that reasonable precautions are the order of the day and not just reckless disregard for a disease that has paralyzed an authoritarian state that doesn’t give a damn about their people.
If China is reacting strongly to this thing then it is serious.
Period.
I heard Rush on this topic today. Actually I thought it was odd he would dismiss this virus out of hand...considering he is one likely most at risk.
Then I considered he is seeing some of the best doctors in the world for his lung cancer...maybe they told him something we don’t know or they outright lied to him.
I happen to agree with you MeganC. There’s something really, really wrong happening in that whole cities across the region are being quarantined. All the world is sheep or there’s a tremendous cover-up as to what’s happened.
I have followed a lot of outbreaks here on FR for years. Those that follow this stuff know the numbers a government is reporting are never accurate or in some cases even remotely true.
President Trump isn’t going to be honest on this one either. It is just too gruesome for many Americans to even remotely comprehend. Americans will riot in the streets as access to healthcare or food runs out.
Asian countries have dealt with this and have had their practice runs with SARS, MERS, etc. Americans? Well...we really have not been down this road.
Americans are not going to be able to comprehend it. And that scares me far more than passing away from it.
