I think the President is handling this just fine.

The Leftists and their media are hell bent to cause panic for what they think will be a political advantage.

This too, will backfire on them.

I always like to state that if it happened that the people coming up from Mexico were conservatives, the Dems would have had a wall already built from Tijuana to Brownsville, TX 100 feet high and 50 feet thick.

Totally agree. My final comment on this thread is a quote from the great Margaret Thatcher:

"This is no time to go wobbly."

Thank you for answering me, but I was asking another poster about a loved one who had died from regular influenza...

I question my own handling of the situation though, I ordered some surgical masks from Amazon...just in case....well, come to find out, they are shipping from China 20 days out.
Shipping for sooner delivery cost $$$ so I didn’t.
I’ll probably be afraid to even open the box if I were to succumb to the panic that the Left wants.
I probably just wasted $50
I ordered them for if we were to end up like Wuhan.

Biggest take here....community infection. No known links to travel or China. Really hard search for patient zero in this cluster.
Hard to contain without patient zero.

You may get use out of them if you are inhome on 14 day isolation with a sick family member. Or vice versa.

Wearing a mask reminds you to not touch your face when you are surrounded by fomites. In some afflicted areas private shopkeepers are requiring customers to wear masks to enter and shop. Hopefully we never come to that.

“No known links to travel or China.”

With this being in much of the world, the China aspect is becoming more and more moot. South Korea, Europe and other spots have to be kept in mind also as it snowballs acroes the globe.

By and large Trolls, they always appear and congregate and in their own way acting as agents to spread Fear, Uncertainty and doubt.

A little empirical evidence from Arizona which is now the retirement capital and loaded with older folks..Went to the Mega WalMart this morning and I did not see a single mask on anyone. Nor have I seen a single one no matter where I go, the closest spot where Concern Trolls seem to be around is at the ASU campus in Tempe not far away.

Overall here it is a big nothing burger no matter how much the Local Newsies on TV breathlessly push the meme.

So take it as you will, the attempt to fear monger and spread doom and gloom is a choice and not backed up by facts, it seems more to be agents who seek attention and trying to tell everyone what they need to do.

Sorry Kids, not workin for me, been here on this planet over 64 years and I have seen em come and go and nary a scratch

Choose for yourself, I do and I suggest you give it a try

So easy to spot, the same posters and the same stuff

U.S. CDC says the ‘risk to the public is increasing’ due to signs of community spread of coronavirus, but there’s currently no evidence of national spread

Terrible news from

press conference. First presumptive case of COVID-19 in a health care worker, first “possible outbreak in a skilled nursing facility” in Washington.

I’m pretty much a germaphobe, very conscientious about even what part of my hand touches things.
I wash very often too.
I keep a bottle of rubbing alcohol in almost every room to clean with.

The whole thing about the panic is that it is easy to calm it down by simply telling people what they CAN do.
Life is full of things we cannot do, should we panic about every thing that we can’t do anything about?

People are working on immunization etc.
The President should just tell the people to remain calm and don’t let the “if it leads it bleeds” media scare them.
He basically has said this but, he calls it in effect a “hoax”.
I think the only reason that is a problem IS the people in this country who do not believe him either in regards to the other things that Trump calls a hoax’s. I love this President.
