Sounds like Cuomo wants control of who gets tested too.
CCP has their own agenda,

CCP numbers - Political and national security first
Intel, if they even know, will not say anything because that would reveal Methods and Means. I doubt they know unless they have a mole or 10 inside Xi’s inner circle
If I lived in Manhattan, I would be doing a Phoenix area vacation for a few weeks.
I just like the odds of the dry heat protecting folks down there (as long as they stay out of A/C highrises).
Air can be passed through a UV lite tunnel for gross virus killing. And micron filtered for added safety.
Woo hoo! Spring Break in Miami!! Lots of cancelations and hotels hiring more housekeepers to clean. Still, the beaches are full. They'll bring more than just CV back home.
Oh yuck. Yeah that is nasty. Burning plastic. I only rarely see images posted here. Bandwidth too slow.
The “slowing down” will only slow it down for a couple of days at most.
It is a fool’s errand at this point.
I realize that. Ive been following this thread from day 1.
Right now we are being reactionary like Italy and they are in complete meltdown. However, Hong Kong was proactive in stopping travel and shutting schools, gatherings and events, and the have a manageable case load and death rate.
Hong Kong will have a high temperature of 77 degrees today.
Just saying...(my last defense—warm weather helps.. :-) )
I disagree. When your house is on fire, you dont keep adding wood.
If a town has 50 cases from local spread, do you want to add another 50 from Italy? Or Seattle?
Personally, I am not of the let it burn to the ground mentality.
Keep in mind that in China people who are already sick are not admitted to hospitals and are not counted as “cases”. People who are reinfected and die of organ failure and not counted.
Only people who have been admitted to a hospital are counted as cases, and those that die are reported as deaths.
There is also a great deal of political pressure not to admit people and to not count cases and deaths as a matter of national and political security for the Party and Xi.
Just to be clear—I am in favor of stopping all travel in and out of the US.
But, we should not kid ourselves—it is too late now.
The main reason to stop all travel is that we are spreading it around the world—and so the travel stop would have to be reciprocal—a win win.
Very likely that either strain generates no immunities and a reinfection will kill you from organ failure.
Hong Kong never had a very large case load, even when it was colder.
Two Jacksonville State University (Alabama) students came into contact with someone diagnosed with COVID-19, the illness caused by coronavirus.
In a letter to students, faculty and staff, JSU acting president Dr. Don Killingsworth Jr. said there are no confirmed cases of coronavirus on JSUs campus. The university has been notified, however, that two JSU students have come into contact with someone in Georgia diagnosed with COVID-19. The contact came out-of-state six days ago and the JSU students are showing no symptoms.
Although the students did attend classes after the exposure, they are not currently on campus, Killingsworth wrote.
2 Jacksonville State University students exposed to coronavirus patient, school says
No infections diagnosed in Alabama yet.
I hope I am being clear, I am not only talking about international travel, but interstate travel. We have to do both at this point.
So if I smell smoke and see a fire off in the distance at 3 am, should I panic my neighbors and try to wake them up ?
3 more deaths in Washington state
