Be interesting to see how Gov. Kumo reacts. He’s been ragging Trump’s ass from day one about how he’s bungled everything. Be careful what you wish for Gov.

Could this be the reason for reactivating so many National Guard and Reservists?

“IF” they were to quarantine anyone, why not New York since it has half the numbers in the whole US?

Patton didn't give orders from DC. He went to the front. And that meant personal contact with the boys who were going to faithfully follow his command.

Valley Forge is another good example.

Morale is an important part of any war.

Building a wall around target areas. Makes sense. Cuomo should have done it already.

Then nuke it from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

“Some people would like to see New York quarantined because its a hot spot. New York, New Jersey, maybe one or two other places. Certain parts of Connecticut quarantined,” Trump said as he left the White House en route of Norfolk, Va. to see off the USNS Comfort, a Navy hospital ship that is headed to New York to provide extra hospital space to help fight the outbreak.

More like telling them to get their socks properly packed...last I heard, he authorized activating NG and Reservists but hadn't taken action.

The cat is already out of the bag, this thing is very contagious. Where we live in Washington we were hit early and deaths and serious cases are already declining. Fortunately, the worst case scenarios were off by a factor of dozens of times. The reasons my friends on the fire department that I used to work for have been hammered hard is because young people with no symptoms and not in a risk group have been freaking out and jamming the 911 system demanding that they get tested. Everyone wants to be able to claim they were infected before the thing goes away.

This should have been done a week ago....HOWEVER...I do hope the POTUS differentiates between the NYC metro area and the Adirondacks and Finger Lakes regions.

Upstate NY does not require quarantine...other than to keep NYC out.

And I’m a Pennsylvanian.

Indications are, Snake says, “yes.”

Tell me more about Washington State. COVID-19 hit y’all first. But now it appears to be recovering to me. Whats up with that?

Somehow watching the “Trump build the wall” gif is very, very relaxing...

My wife and I have both volunteered and been paid to work at the Life Care Center in Kirkland. I was one of the first here who said that this was more than just political shenanigans and took a lot of heat for that. I had no idea the panic could morph into what it has.

We have several hundred thousand recent Chinese immigrants in Eastern King County. Going to the Costco in Kirkland sometimes feels like the fish market in Wuhan. Many Chinese people return to China frequently. Over ten thousand came back after the travel ban by going into Vancouver International instead of SeaTac. They brought this back in December and January.
