U.S. Rep. Tulsi Gabbard is calling for a suspension of flights to Hawaii from South Korea and Japan amid growing concerns about the coronavirus. “It is irresponsible for our leaders to endanger the health and well-being of Hawaii’s people by continuing to allow travel from Japan and South Korea," Gabbard said, in a statement Wednesday. “I know there will be economic hardship, but it will pale in comparison to the cost in lives and economic damage to Hawaii and our country if we don’t suspend travel from these countries.”

A. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
B. Don’t panic, Chicken Little. The sky is not falling.
A. Because it’s not panic. It’s the SMART thing to do.
I don’t think this thing is gonna explode in the states.
If we do the smart things.
Like this.
But isn’t that racist?
> But isn’t that racist? <
Of course. Everything is racist these days.
I’m in Japan , and love Hawaii ( minus the politics ) . Totally with Telsi on this .
Works for me. Kona has direct arrival Japan flights with zero monitoring or controls . Walk right in , masks and all.
A. freak out; tank the market.
B. reject infectious persons at the border
She can do everything right and still get screwed by the CDC. It’s easy to have 0 cases when you don’t test.
Hawaii doctors have alerted the Department of Health at least 8 times about patients they thought could have coronavirus, but none of them were tested.

State approval now required before doctors can flag possible COVID-19
more scare tactics.....
Sobering. So long as no one dies, guess they can get away with it.
What do you mean?
CAWW like others on FR are freaking out that criticism means blame for President Trump. Trump’s Katrina.
No, because Tulsi is a Woman of Color, and Women of Color can’t be racist, you see.
we can’t interupt the flights, not from anywhere. that might disrupt the nwo campaign to move ten thousand from the third world into the west every day.

It does look like Japan should be raised now.

lol.
Just wait until the “well, we didn’t test anybody because it would look bad for Trump if we had cases” story goes around. Then it really would be Trump’s Katrina.
But the conspiracy theory tinfoil hat nut jobs that think China destroyed its own economy at the bidding of the Deep State to take out President Trump, and when that didn’t work had Korea and Italy do it too, will call you names if you disagree with their looney theories. They are as bad as the apocalypse guys when you don’t freak out and run around with your hair on fire.
Just watch what they call me now, heh, heh.
Don’t panic. Prepare and be vigilant.
Just what I was going to say! Apparently any politician today who tries to protect American lives from foreign sources is RACIST! Preventing people from entering the USA from terror sponsoring countries is RACIST! It is better to allow those terror attacks to happen! Same with preventing foreigners from entering to prevent an epidemic! That’s RACIST! It is better to allow those foreigners to come in, spread their disease and kill us otherwise AOC will cry and wail about the children!
It should be:
Take your pick.
A. It’s the Apocalypse and we’re all gonna die get in your bunkers now!
B. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
C. Don’t panic, Chicken Little. The sky is not falling.
What I think we should do is to get more selective as to whom we allow in the country and build some sort of a barrier to keep people from entering our country w/o being checked out.
