1,128 cases and 29 dead ... and how many still sick, not recovered or dead? Curious about 82 year old pope, now three days and silence.

Sadly, this is not going back in the bottle. The cruise ship industry is dead for now.

The trick is going to be not to let the Dems pin this on him. They will probably even try to crash the economy and make people sick if they think it will damage Trump.

Look at what they did in Puerto Rico. The people aren't going to buy it. They have been blaming everything on Trump and it's like they are just crying wolf.

50,000 deaths per year in USA from plain old pneumonia, not related to flu or Corona.

20,000 to 30,000 additional deaths in influenza years.

Be aware these deaths, which have NOTHING to do with Corona virus will be lumped in with it for sensationalism and shock value in news stories.

Corona virus infections and death statistics MUST BE viewed as verified STAND ALONE numbers.

No clue. It’s freezing in Wash DC today so I’d advise him to head for Fl.

He needs to point out it's the media and Democrats who are needlessly and dangerously stoking fear and panic.

If there is panic it will be in 'large urban centers' run by Democrats.

“That said, the timing of Trump’s statements and conferences is rather odd. Middle of day because it is urgent, to bury it, to distract from SC primary”

Doesn’t matter in this day and age when it is held. It will be available immediately and anytime thereafter on social media.

He’s at CPAC so the timing is related to that. I’m hoping he calms the markets but also takes serious actions to contain. Also, as another poster said... address supply chain issues of essential items we depend on China for. No matter the real potential of this virus, he needs to take severe actions, if only to calm jitters.

Look up the word “endemic” and figure out how that applies to the stats you posted.

I hope that he emphasizes that over the previous decades China has become almost the only supplier of masks, gloves, gowns, and anti-biotics. The US MUST make these things ourselves as a matter of national security. He must also talk about how the dems condemned his efforts to block foreigners coming from virus areas coming into the country.

This is the political equivalent of a slow hanging curve over the middle of the plate.

Hey Brainiac...where is your concern re: the tens of thousands dying from influenza every year in the US?

Question: are you a journolista with CNN/NYT?
