The the kids of the single mom she is on a waiting list for an incubator.

Tell the owner of the building there is a wuhan virus cluster from his building and hazmat cleaning is needed. Not that anyone will come in it again.

Tell the bank they have lawsuits for partial liability to the 3 deaths and 13 hospitalizations.

Tell the idiots they never lived in a hot zone.

See how easy that was. Not that either scenario is remotely anything but fear mongering on the extremes.

I’ve read that we’re about two weeks behind Italy on the ‘curve’.

Last week I thought I read we were a week behind. We seem to be losing ground.

This is a man who understands the risks he's taking....we've seen this all along. Either we meant it when we said we'd have his back or not.

Will he make mistakes in this situation...of course....it's the first any President has acted this strongly against such a thing we all face....will he pull this Nation and it's people out of this ...I believe he will in the time it may take to do it. But I for one will remain steadfast supporting Him.........the alternative would be destruction.

Last week I thought I read we were a week behind. We seem to be losing ground. --------- No, I think in this case we're gaining ground. We want a lot of distance time-wise between us and Italy. The isolation measures many states (as it should be NY≠WY) have implemented might well slow the progression of Wuhan disease down. That's a good thing, although with more testing the number of cases will grow.

There was a touch of sarcasm there.

The US and Italy had their first diagnosis about the same time, but Italy's numbers have been consistently worse. Somehow we're going to be in the same place, we're just 'behind.'

Problem is, your hypotheticals are just that - hypothetical. The working classes coming woes are reality.

The woes are going to be widespread. If you want to blame someone blame the complete corrupt, inhuman, killing Chinese.

That’s where your anger should be. They released the virus, kept it quiet, sent people far and wide in order to share the pain. Or they were ready and they shared it. I believe the second part but then again, I’m a little bit of a paranoid nut. Is it ok to be paranoid knowing the Chinese will trade 1 for 1 against the US and Europe.

Piss on China. Hope they suffer.

Then leave the roadways closed to private vehicles: Car Accident Statistics – Highlights Over 40,000 fatal car accidents per year in the U.S. Each day, more than 90 Americans die in car accidents. On average, 2 million drivers experience a permanent injury every year. Almost 8,000 people are killed in traffic accidents involving drivers aged 16-20. The most common causes of death on the road are drunk driving (40%), speeding (30%), and irresponsible driving (33%). Some 58% of fatal car accidents involve only one vehicle, and 38% are caused by a traffic collision. When it comes to fatal car accidents by state, most occurred in Texas and California during 2018. According to the statistics, most fatal injuries happen during weekends. Each year, more than 1,600 children younger than 15 die in traffic accidents. If it saves even one life, no intrusion on the FReedom of the People is too drastic.... “Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom. It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves.” ― William Pitt the Younger 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.”
