New York Mayor Bill de Blasio (D) on Tuesday called for a travel ban from the United Kingdom over a variant strain of the Chinese coronavirus — one that is reportedly more transmissible — referring to it as the “new foe.”

“Right now you can still get on a plane in London and not even have proof you have a negative test, then come to New York City and merrily spread the disease,” he said during Tuesday’s press conference, asking why that is occurring.

Trump did the same thing last year and you called it racist.

XENOPHOBE!

ANGLOPHOBE!

[cdcdawg]

I thought it was “racist” to have travel bans with Muslim countries.

[Osagegirl]

Let YOU have a travel ban, keep other states out of your power grab Hitler

[G Larry]

Let's try something that is scientifically proven!!!!!

Cheap therapeutics!!!!!!

[volunbeer]

Doesn’t this discriminate against people with bad teeth?

How hateful!

[NEMDF]

And yet, doesn’t he welcome all the illegals from 3rd world countries, who invade our southern border? Do you suppose anyone is checking them for variants of Covid-19?

Isn't there already a travel ban between UK and Europe?

What am I missing here?

[a fool in paradise]

Racist!

And didn’t he used to call it Italy Virus?

[Darksheare]

But it’s precipitous!

[Seruzawa]

I’m all for banning any New Yorkers from traveling anywhere. Great idea. We already have more than enough blue state transplants.

Let’s also have a travel ban on Kalifornia, Washington, Oregon, Illinois, Maryland.....

De Blasio didn’t seem worried about polio, cholera, diphtheria and smallpox, but now he’s worried about this.

So how about the British ban all New Yorkers from traveling to London, and ban DeBlasio and his $800 million stealing wife from the UK forever.

Ha! I see what you did there. And all humor has at least some truth in it. Oh, and here’s a London event back in 2015:

“I'm all for banning any New Yorkers from traveling anywhere.”

Too late — they have already spread like cockroaches all over. While NJ was ruined long ago, Sussex and Warren were red — but now they are invading there. They are ruining Northeastern PA, NC and even SC. Liberalism is the real virus.

[Skywise]

It’s in China now DeBlasio - wanna block traffic from there?

[MIDad23]

There is no new variant strain:

[matt04]
