    Well, Trump wasn't the only xenophobe/racist to do so;

    From Jan 28th to Feb 1st, 6 countries banned travel from China
    From Jan 28th to Feb 1st, 2 countries banned travel from Hubei, China

    Also, from Jan 25th, 3 countries closed their visa offices in China, including Canada's Uncle Truedau

    Partisan politics; Had Trump refused to impose a ban, Biden's response; Why not?

    It seems that a lot of countries realized that the Red Chinese could not be trusted. They would still be allowing infected Chinese citizens to travel to these countries if it were not for effective leaders like Trump prevented the Red Chinese from doing so.

    And your assessment of their actions is that they all acted because they are xenophobic racists ??? That’s absurd.

    So none of those leaders including Trump are xenophobic racists. Thanks for clarifying.

    The Left in this regard reminds me of Neville Chamberlain and appeasement. "Peace in our time". It led to a World War. This time, it led to an infectious health crisis.

    ln fairness Chamberlain may have been stalling for time to build up the British military. There is no explanation for the behavior of the left to put their hatred of Trump above the welfare of the American people.

    Let's put it this way;

    If average and ordinary ME suspected they were lying, then at least one key government official knew they were lying.

    Every politician talk out of both sides of their mouth.

    Once again, had Trump refused to ban travel from China, Biden's response; Why not?

    Trump banned travel from China on 1/31/20 10 days after the first corona virus case in the US which was a US citizen who had traveled and returned from Wuhan. That's what happened. Biden claimed Trump was a xenophobe/racist as did most of the CNN/MSNBC media types. Pelosi told her constituency to go the China Town and have dinner. DiBlasio and the NY head of public health said to go out in public and have a good - nothing to worry about.

    Mid January;

    Moderna’s Work on a Potential Vaccine Against COVID-19

    QUESTION: A potential vaccine for "We, The People" or for the Chinese who works at a wet market?

    Timeline

    • On January 11, 2020, the Chinese authorities shared the genetic sequence of the novel coronavirus.
    • On January 13, 2020, the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) and Moderna’s infectious disease research team finalized the sequence for mRNA-1273, the Company’s vaccine against the novel coronavirus. At that time, the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), part of NIH, disclosed their intent to run a Phase 1 study using the mRNA-1273 vaccine in response to the coronavirus threat and Moderna mobilized toward clinical manufacture. Manufacture of this batch was funded by the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI).
    • On February 7, 2020, the first clinical batch, including fill and finishing of vials, was completed, a total of 25 days from sequence selection to vaccine manufacture. The batch then proceeded to analytical testing for release.
    • On February 24, 2020, the clinical batch was shipped from Moderna to the NIH for use in their Phase 1 clinical study.

    Alright, enjoy the rage and feeling justified while being pinged for rule violations about a one day reduction in the number of new cases compared to the previous day.

    Just understand that it means nothing. There are states where the actual number of confirmed cases remained completely flat. And even that means nothing because of the delay/backlog of testing.

    There is more than enough evidence worldwide to justify a prohibition on religious service gatherings. In addition there are ample viable alternatives that meet the goals of religious services WITHOUT the need for people actually gathering all in the same place.

    Worth noting that even the Pope is advocating the use of virtual sermons and as a bit of trivia he also happens to be the LAST pope on the prophecy list made about who all of the popes would be.

    Perhaps the next pope will be a woman instead. ;)

    I merely repeated what you said. And you hounded me every day whining about using Johns Hopkins instead of the wackometer as a source. So stop your whining.

    The equation I came up with based on the data from 30 days [double checked the math]
    N = 300 x e^0.204t
    N is the total number of infections in the US and t is the number of days since Feb 28

    That makes t = 33 on April 2. So if it continues to track we expect
    N = 251,650 today

    If it continues on that curve, in another 10 days we expect
    N = 1.9 million

    Math upsets you, accuracy upsets you, and now you are calling one of the best sources of info "wackometer". Almost seems that you are running on spite.

    Here for what? Look up the "Great Depression" and see the "fun".

    And there is NO guarantee who will be here if we destroy the economy or not.


    I hope you are correct and shutting down and destroying people's livelihoods will not harm survivors .

    Talking about survivors indicates a faith that this disease will end at some point, why will that happen? Will the world be free of it or is it now a permanent fact of life like the Flu or a cold? If it's permanent how do we live with it, perpetual isolation? At some point we have to determine how to go on living our lives. Without a vaccine this **** will simply be with us forever so what role will it play in our lives?

    You knew in mid January from the above most which didn't occur until after mid January and without the full set of data from the Chinese which we still do not have ??

    What tipped you off ?? The genetic sequence ??

    A Depression will kill far more US citizens than the corona virus.

    Life is still better than death. How do you know how many will die? When struggling to get your next breath nothing else matters.
