Trump was 'furious' that 14 Americans infected with coronavirus boarded a plane back to the US from Japan without his permission, which officials admit was a 'big mistake'

DO something, Donnie. Use your instincts. Start cutting off heads. Every second they are f—king up things to get to YOU. If you don’t know what by now, you don’t deserve to “win” your little victories.

[Jamestown1630]

They just had to get a demeaning dig in. It’s their institutional policy.

[higgmeister]

We might want to put the military in charge of this entirely so that the next time something like this can happen the persons responsible can be prosecuted under the UCMJ.

The Public Health Service Commissioned Corps (PHSCC) is the federal uniformed service of the USPHS, and is one of the eight uniformed services of the United States.

They need to start running the USPHS which includes the CDC, as a functioning uniformed service under the Surgeon General (which it actually is).

Bring Out Your Dead

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

So far the false positive rate is 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

If a quarantine saves just one child's life, it's worth it.

[MSF BU]

Good point. I still like the idea though of punishing those who made this decision. Maybe a transfer to Zambia or something.

[semimojo]

State Dept is run by socialists, and has been for decades.

Why does Pompeo still have a job?

[hanamizu]

12k have died from the flu this season in the US alone.

---

When the flu is around, hospitals will ask you to put on a mask to avoid spreading it to their patients and staff. They do not walk around in ‘moon suits’. Cities are not isolated because a a influenza outbreak. Official reaction to this disease, both in China and here tells me that something serious is going on. This seems to be scaring people in the know.

"Come November, the gloves on our side HAVE to come off!!!"

Mr. Waterboard will be very busy.

Then following trials and convictions, Mr. Hangman will have a lot of work to do.

[Glad2bnuts]

State Dept MASTERS is more like it. This kind of thing should bring prison time to those responsible.

[Hostage]

> “Trump had been told last Saturday that only evacuees who didn’t have symptoms or positive test results would be allowed on State Department charter planes back to the US from Japan, according to the ***Washington Post***.”

This is WAPO (CIA) Agitprop.

It’s been posted on FR before under different outlets carrying the same crap.

Don’t believe a word of it.

[Mount Athos]

ok what’s the true story? I’m inclined to believe you and doubt wapo

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

Whoever allowed this should have to bunk with those quarantined 24/7.

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

There’s been a few times that I’ve had to work with State Dept. people. Most of them were arrogant asses that didn’t impress me a bit.

[bkopto]

The Trump Administration needs to step it up.

This virus is exponentially spreading in Asia.

There is a relative disinterest by the MSM in this virus.

There appears to be a blackout of information by state and federal authorities.

Low level bureaucrats are hiding information and making decisions which will accelerate spread of this virus here.

I’m smelling multiple dirty rats here.

These pols, bureaucrats, states, federal agencies are filled with Trump haters.

They would rather see you die of infection than get Trump re-elected, so they are slow walking this and keeping us in the dark.

If the virus goes exponential here, Trump will be saddled with the blame.

This sounds conspiratorial but how else is this fumbling, bumbling, and information blackout to be explained?

[Vermont Lt]

Idiot state department kids.

They didn’t have time to write a position paper and go out to lunch to discuss it. Therefore, they should be forgiven. Not.

[RJS1950]

We can be and are prepared to isolate/quarantine these patients. One place they are sending them is here in Nebraska with the quarantine at a National Guard site and the identified patients at the isolation facility at Nebraska Medical Center. That facility is one of several in the nation that brought in and treated the Ebola patients a few years back. State of the art facility. While the orders should not have been violated, I’m not too worried having them close in. In some ways it makes sense to bring them out of a country that may be struggling and possibly give them a clean bill to get rid of them before they are ready and really cleared. One of the guys that came here was supposedly healthy and became ill on the flight over. That would be a bigger threat of spreading it. Don’t think it will happen again now that Trump is on them.

[reasonisfaith]

Which “people in the know” are you talking about , specifically?

[reasonisfaith]

Careful, you’re falling for the false narrative that Trump is to blame.

If you believe the lie that “it doesn’t appear we were prepared for this,” then you’ll also believe the ultimate conclusion—that it was Trump’s fault.

It was the fault of the criminals in the state department.

[reasonisfaith]

You mean we weren’t prepared for subversives in the state department willing to commit an act of bioterrorism because they think it will harm Trump’s chance for reelection?

Subversives who hate everything American patriots love, but don’t have the mental ability to articulate the origin of their hate?

[Liberal Anti Venom]

Agreed. My thoughts exactly.

I’m not a doctor or biologist, but it has appeared to me from the start the “flu” we normally experience in the US is generally far worse when compared to the number infected and the number that die.

Just appears to me that this is a manufactured crises, or in other words a non-crises.
