I’m not so sure. Mexico is notorious for not having pulmonary contagious disease epidemics, mostly attributed to its hot dry weather.

There have been some exceptions, but diseases of that type, that spread in dry and warm and hot weather, are much more uncommon. And coronavirus does not seem to number among them.

Didn’t Spain follow this same tactic?

Thank God Trump is President.

If Hillary was President she’d still be telling deplorables they’re ‘racists’ for not wanting Chinese visitors...

Mexico doesn’t have decent sewage systems or a high level of literacy, anyone expecting them to be prepared for anything is expecting too much.

You are 100% right. The dark brown skinned Indians are living proof of a hot and sunny climate. People living in Mumbai don’t need to own a simple sweater or warm jacket!

Absolutely. Throw all resources at building and re enforcing the wall. It is only reasonable.

“How many of the 2000 who died are Asian?”

Million dollar question. I’d like to know that too.

Mexico holds big music festival despite coronavirus concerns
"Alan Miranda, who was making his first visit to Vive Latino and especially wanted to see The Warning (ed note: *shudder*), said he felt many people are overreacting to the potential danger of contagion at large gatherings."

“Because I consider it is more a collective hysteria than any other thing. In Mexico we have a culture of a little bit more of hygiene that helps us to limit this kind of transmissions,” he said."

From your link I did not see clearly stats based on country.
Here is a much easier link to read from:
https://www.statista.com/statistics/1043366/novel-coronavirus-2019ncov-cases-worldwide-by-country/

From above web site, here is a sample of numbers infected:
Italy 21,157
Iran 12,729
SKorea 8,162
Spain 5,653
France 4,469
Germny 3,795
USA 1,678
India 107
Brazil 121
Egypt 93

India has more people than Italy, Iran, S.Korea, Spain, France, Germany and USA combined, and has only 107 infections as of March 15 versus 57,650 in above 7 countries.

With millions of people traveling in and out of India, of course there will be a few already infected coming in and spreading it as well. But 107 versus 57,650 with more population than the 7 coutries combined looks like a growing epidemic to you?

*** “They do not know what toilet paper is” ***

They do know what it is. Basically it is just that where they come from they do not have the Plumbing to deal with it ... (which is why when you go to a Bus Depot/Restaurant frequented by Migrants you will find the waste baskets full of used toilet paper, they use TP but they don’t flush it)

The Media has more important things to do than actually informing peasants like us.

Namely, using the coronavirus in concert with DemocRat politicians to remove a duly-elected president.

Biden says no deportations if he wins. Mexico and just about every other country to the south have coronavirus.
