Surgeon General: 15 Days 'Not Enough Time' to Slow Coronavirus
New York Post ^ | March 18, 2020 | Andrew Denney

“Fifteen days is likely not going to be enough to get us all the way through,” Adams said in an interview on NBC’s “Today.”...On Tuesday, Adams told CBS Evening News that the next 15 days will be a “critical inflection point” for slowing the spread — and that he would “not fault” any state or local leaders for ordering people to “shelter in place.”

Well, the good news is that people won't have to run around and buy Easter candy for the kids.

WOW. Totalitarian scum. JUST AS I SUSPECTED-- this is a "trial run" for controlling population movement. I WILL NOT obey any 'order' to 'shelter in place'. I have work to do on my rural homestead, and for my employers.

Ya mean I can’t pull my favorite trick this year? So sad.

Color raw eggs and hide them in the park.

The made up 15 days was so people will stay separated for the first 15 days thinking it will be over soon,

It was obvious that 15 days wont be enough.

I wish he hadn’t said that. There goes the restaurants opening in 2 weeks. If this misery goes on for a month or more then no way any recovery hits before November. If the rat gets in the damage from that will be ten times worse then anything the virus does.

Does the US have Sturgeon General?

Just asking for the Great Lakes.

15 days is just a joke with this pathogen in the wild.

30, 45, and 90 days are a joke.

Then the economy is gone and the cure is far worse than the disease.

Why has POTUS Trump become the Pied Piper? Along with Fox News and so many others? I sit here scratching my head about this madness the past 10+ days...

Let’s cut off his paycheck for the duration, and we’ll see how long he thinks it should last.

Is FR response slow, or is 61 seconds the new norm for point bounce?

Amazing how these stupid F**KS can run around telling people to shelter in place. You can bet THEY will continue to receive a paycheck no matter what.

When do WE say enough is the question.

I suspect because it is a worldwide panic and he has to take the lead in “doing something.” Your thoughts?

Nobody around here is paying much attention to the suggestions for the 15 day self-control measures.

It is a shame. Mandatory will be required.

I think you're right. Trump looks very unhappy about this. I hope he feels this situation will quickly resolve and this will rebound.

The numbers "reported" are the problem -- can we really trust them. Look at the Obama health official re-treads, arrayed behind POTUS at every press conference......

Do you believe that Donald Trump is compromised? Because he is 100% on board with whatever it takes to slow down the spread of this virus.
