"We are calling for the home isolation of all those 65 years or older and all those with chronic conditions," Newsom said during the press conference.

*Healthy* people aged 65 and older are "called" to hole themselves up at home? For how the hell many days/weeks/months, Gavin??

This is INSANITY.

Thanks nutmeg, just been discussing this on FB with some friends.

What an attention whore Newsome is.

Us old coots are smart enough to self isolate unless necessary to go out for drugs food gas etc.

If he really wants to help he should get a shovel and clean up the sidewalks of poop in the city he used to ‘run’, San Francisco.

Exactly! We were just in SF in October for a wedding. Wow... thing have gotten SO bad there. It was truly shocking. Hubby grew up in the East Bay Area... he couldn't believe the stuff he saw on the streets of SF.

Trump thought like you at the beginning and now he has a hot mess8888

Trump was right on it, and was criticized from the time he stopped china flights coming in.

The only hot mess I see is you Ben yo-yo with your leftist talking points.

don’t these politicians know about all the delivery services?

Pizza been doing it for years.

Lots of other restaurant delivery services in all cities.

You can even buy you groceries from the local market by phoning or on line then pick them up in the parking lot.

Plus order to go from restaurants and pick it up at outside window.

This is just a power trip by an attention whore governor who wants to ruin the economy even more than he already has.

Waiting for a Coronavirus tax at the gas pumps.

Pretty much the same "winning" formula for all democRATs running big cities in blue states.

Trump said on Feb. 26 there were 15 cases and it would soon go down to zero.

Now we are just short of 4,000 cases.

How’s that for a prediction?

He’s created a hot mess for himself. He needs to learn how to manage expectations.

Fortunately Trump has belatedly realized the seriousness of this disease, which is more than I can say for you.

Testing the waters to see how pliant the People are becoming....

Kind of ironic - we know that the Deep State and others use fear as a way to steer and control the people - we had the commie/nuke war threat until the Berlin Wall came down then it wasn’t viable anymore and up pops Globull Warming, which has many in fear that we’re gonna destroy the Earth even as we do less harm than past generations and none of the data actually supports anything but the earth’s climate and Mother Nature do not now, and never did have a “balance” and even if they did, we have no idea of how to maintain one or ‘fix’ things...all our efforts end up causing more harm....the coronavirus scare is no different - the panic-induced knee-jerking will cause more harm than the virus.
Folks who would be up in arms if the government decided to tell them they could not move freely are now begging that same government to lock them, and everyone else, down....I’d wager if, after doing that, the story ‘evolved” they would also go meekly to barb-wire surrounded camps/tent cities because the “latest info” said that’s the only way to stop it.
Even though we know that they use fear to guide and control us, so many can’t see it through the red haze of insane panic....they not only welcome the government controls, they beg for them...

And the fear mongers will try to leverage it...

Reminds me of a saying, by Ben Franklin, that many FReepers, who are now acting insane, used to showcase:

“Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.”

The hard left has to be thinking this is a dream from hell..i was going to say heaven but you know.
The economy is shaky ..Trump approval numbers are down..and people are grabbing up supplies and creating artificial shortages.
If only they would have been this concerned when tens of millions of illegals, with who knows what viruses and diseases they might be carrying, invaded our country.

4,000 divided by 350 million gives you the odds that you will get this virus.

61 divided by 350 million gives the odds that you will die from this virus.

It’s actually less than that because people are taking a lot more precautions now.
I would say way more precautions than is necessary especially since they are causing economic chaos at the same time.

Trump knew as soon as info leaked out from China and acted quickly.

China silenced doctors when they gave warning.

Did he wait 6 months and 1000 deaths before acting?

No, that was Obama

Did you complain then or was that ok because he could do no wrong?

oldsters should have stayed isolated from the beginning ....and I'm one of them.....

we can't protect everyone...we are NOT going to protect everyone because we CAN'T.....

so people better wise up....a little wisdom early on would have prevented much of this....

you would rather we go into deep depression, with our young people suidcidal, with the threat of wars, with starvation, etc over telling old people to just stay home and stay safe...ALL of this is because we’re protecting the old people....all of it.....
