They’re not doing it for 49 deaths.
They’re doing it to prevent the entire thing from rapidly spiraling out of control and overwhelming the system like what is happening in Italy.
It’s really not that hard to figure out, honestly.
There’s a Chinese bio-weapon on the loose in America. It’s only so bad right now. It could get a lot worse, real fast.
Before you compare infection and mortality rates with Italy you should first compare health care systems. Italy’s socialized healthcare system is strained during a normal flu season. Beyond that, their population is aging, and they’ve been selling themselves to China for the past 15-20 years. There are LOTS of Chinese nationals living in Italy now and LOTS of people traveling back and forth between Italy and China. You see it in the street shops in every major city in Italy that sell everything from candy bars to sofas, always with a Chinese national sitting behind the counter. The same is true in Iran, except Iran’s healthcare system is more like vintage 8th Century.
You seriously need to stop. You are spreading disinformation and panic with baseless statements like this.
“There’s a Chinese bio-weapon on the loose in America. “
Yes, there is, people like you spreading fear and panic.
Exactly right. Chris. I don’t understand people being so blind to the fact if we do nothing our medical system Will be Overwhelmed and cause countless more deaths. Everyone needs to get on board and sacrifice for a limited time. I never thought I would see so many pig-headed, panicked and selfish people.
You, sir, are correct. This is a man made virus, and as such all predictability as to how it is going to mutate goes out the window.
Is there some overreaction? Yes indeed.
Overreaction is far better than no reaction.
Italy, Italy, Italy
You’re just repeating what you hear from the media says.
Funny, you don’t mention South Korea, Germany or France.
Italy is an abnormality compared to everyone except China
Why look just at Italy?
France, Switzerland, Austria and Slovenia all border Italy and don’t have Italy’s problem.
Germany and Croatia are right next door.
NONE of these countries, though close in distance to Italy,
are nowhere close to outcome.
