oh dear...looks like everyone is turning to those EVIL GREEDY HEARTLESS CORPORATE THIEVES like Pfizer now...these horrible selfish drug companies out to make PROFITS are once again expected to save lives...once again are spending tens of billions of their own money on research, trying to find a cure...trying to save lives, and possibly the entire planet from an unknown, deadly disease...and who wants to bet, that once again, the LEFT worldwide will hate them for it...will curse them and demonize them all the while? Who wants to bet that if they do finally find a cure, the LEFT will demand that the government eliminate the patent rights earned by Pfizer in the creation of the vaccine? Who wants to bet the left continues to demand price controls and other measures to hurt noble companies like Pfizer?

Come on, it is the virus which is highly contagious, not the people.

One American working in Hong Kong can already bring back the decease. Can you ban American entering America? The bottomline is: the virus doesn't look at your passport before entering your body. It knows no racism. Period.

The virus IS already inside USA but is kept, for the time being, inside hospitals. If one single virus gets into the community and spreads, you have to take the same countermeasures that I have listed.

Doesn't the flu virus also mutate quickly? That is why annual flu shots are needed.

Bingo!

Better quarantine Michael Moore, too. Better quarantine a lot of leftie loons as well.

That's too easy. Tell Michael Moore to come to Hong Kong and I will send a contaminated fans to kiss him. Other leftie loons are welcomed too.
