News Trump suddenly bans Travel from EU to USA for month due to poor response over Corona (2 Viewers)

[jasque]

I wish they banned flights everywhere for 15 days before tbh

There's a virus around and suddenly people start travelling all around the world

But it's human nature ig

America can't even keep people in quarantine. How many people are getting exposed just cause people refuse to stop their lives to avoid infecting others. That includes two airheaded congressmen who feel they don't need to go into quarantine because they feel no symptoms. One having been seen shaking hands with a corono positive patient (who escaped quarantine to go to a confrence). And no, depsite being incontact with both congressmen Trump will not get tested because, again, he has no symptoms so he feels he's safe.

I wonder if US has legal discouragement towards people to not break quarantine. In my country if you are put into quarantine breaking that quarantine is crime and you can get fined or even jail time over it. Probably punishment won't be hard, but at least people are strongly discouraged ^^;.

It seems my country has really ranked up measures too. There used to be just couple epidemic areas where you were discouraged to travel, but now all travel outside of country is discouraged (but not banned). That's sth at least.

At the end of the day the thing is only as bad as it was in China ie sub 3 % mortality rate. (unless the Chinese are lying their asses off)

I read that one contributor to the mortality rate in China is the fact that a lot of Chinese men over 60 are smokers. So that's another reason why the mortality rate in other areas can be expected to be lower.

I get the feeling with how many bleeding hearts there are in America I am assuming that someone would say quarantine is inhumane. Shocked we managed to put those cruise ship people in quartine because California is big on loon ideas. Can't have people confined now can we.

Funny how Trump is saying other countries have poor responses to it when China has been doing 200k tests per day and Korea 15k per day while the US has only done 5k to date.

Yea that's kinda irking me as well. ... USA shouldn't really be boasting about how low it's cases are.

Don't believe everything he says. He likes to make stuff up. 16k lies to date:

I'm surprised he didn't propose building a wall around the US to keep the rest of the world out.

Mortality rate will also depend on how ready the health and hospital system is for epidemic and who is getting infected. For example in South Korea lot of young women are getting infected (cause over half infected are member of that cult and most members of the cult are young women) so the mortality rate there is low.

Not surprising as Trump is self serving and the saddest part is it looks like he's going to get re-elected at this rate.

A guy called Dr Anthony Fauci who's the director of the national institute of allergy and infectious diseases said this

"When pressed by lawmakers for an estimate of eventual fatalities in the U.S., Fauci said it will be “totally dependent upon how we respond to it.”

“I can’t give you a number,” he said. “I can’t give you a realistic number until we put into the factor of how we respond. If we’re complacent and don’t do really aggressive containment and mitigation, the number could go way up and be involved in many, many millions.”"

I just listened goverments info just hour ago here, it seems that they are really serious now here at least. But it's kinda scary too, they even mentioned martial law as sth they are thinking as option in the future

Another thing.
A sub set of people hate Trump so much that

people are dying sis, for once Trump is doing something right.

people die every day, that is what people do.
This panic is worse that the bug. letting fear drive you is not good.
Take the NBA Jordan played his last game in the finals with the flu taking iv's pre game and half time .
they did not empty the building or call the game off.
1 guy tests kinda positive for cv they shut down the season.... and people think its reasonable.

It's Good they are cancelling everything sis I completely agree, it can spread among people. I don't get it like do you want people to die?

Stop spreading lies that it's like regular flu, This virus is 3x more worse.

the flu with a vaccine kills 100's of thousands annually worldwide.
just in the us 42 million had it last year.
To date there are less than 150k cv 19 cases globally.
That number is horribly under counted because most people who got it thought not much of it. But even still 100's of millions get the flu annually.
Call it one order of magnitude off in reporting atm. btw just that change that drops the mortality rate to flu levels.

but if blue berries is right they are testing 200k pp a day in china so there are not many hidden cases left to find there.

Do you have any idea of the cost to normal people if they shut down every thing?

Oh tom hanks and his wife have it so now we have high profile drama to watch too.

The fear is just going to get worse and worse.
Hell all the friends of friends I know are totally paranoid over it.

They really need to nip in the bud.
The quarantine helps yeah, but you can't control people's fear.
