Of course, thats why democrats have demanded open borders and the removal of travel bans.
Taiwan was far more prepared. They don’t trust the CHICOMS either in their sight or out of their sight.
They keep saying that, but I don’t think its true.
No tests, CDC/FDA bureaucracy stifling change and experimentation.
Medical supplies in China.
Congressional backbiting.
Open borders and travel.
Sure, we have a good capability to gear up and respond in a reasonably time frame, but we weren’t all that prepared IMHO. That’s why that Chinese citizen who worked for Biogen concealed the fact she had tested positive for the virus in MA took a plane back to China for treatment. She felt she had a better shot at treatment there than here.
translation: Johns Hopkins gets huge globs of grant money from the CDC.
No. Not seemingly at odds. Most definitely at odds. A report from a reputable Johns Hopkins group with more than 100 experts from 13 countries.
As opposed to Sleepy Joe Biden and other decidedly non-expert politicians with an ax to grind.
I think the best thing that Trump did was to stop travel from China. Because of that, I think, the number of cases in the USA will remain small.
Italy uses Chinese workers heavily. They traveled back and forth to their home in China.
The numbers in the worldometer got me thinking about this. There are just a few countries that are experiencing a “pandemic.”
One advantage we have over Europe is a large military with military doctors
Everybody has a plan until they get punched in the face.
I guess Joe Biden is smarter than John Hopkins:
“At the same time, the paper noted that the U.S. score was still not perfect, and that “”factors driving down the U.S. score include the risks of social unrest and terrorism, and low public confidence in government.””
Let’s see, the allowance of people coming into the country illegally and being trained to hate the GOP who is constantly being badmouthed and having criminals sneak in right next to them, could promote a lack of confidence in government. But they should have got a strong score for intending to do it.

Sure.
Who paid for the study? CDC? That would make sense.
All the alphabet health agencies need to be gutted and rebuilt into something less self-serving and more useful to US.
