    Greetings from the Trumposphere. If wishes were horses Shannon Bream would have 4 of my children.

    It might help to turn the volume on, but it distracts from my reading.

    He is flat out telling us we should not be taking this seriously and most of the epidemiologists are saying that is totally wrong. There is no need for panic but we should be taking measures and we should be taking them now.

    Most of us don't even know whether we should or shouldn't be wearing medical masks. Trump should be telling us that not going on about how this will die off once it gets warm

    Why aren't you mad at the Chinese? They are the ones responsible for yours and our current danger..

    Ah, hell, Aleks, we disagree about everything -- but not about Shannon Bream, evidently.

    You don't need government to tell you about masks. The surgeons wear their masks to protect the patient on the operating table from the surgeon's sneezes and coughs and exhales. It only protects the surgeons from blood spurts.

    I'm going to wear the cheap little single elastic strap masks used by construction workers -- not to protect me -- but to protect everybody else if I happen to sneeze. The H95 doesn't work any better for protecting the wearer.

    The H95 is, of course, a little shy bit better than nothing, like a construction mask. But if you can draw breathing air through it you can draw virus through it.

    What measures should he take? What would you like him to do that the experts are telling him to do that he is not doing?

    He is not saying we should not be taking this serious, he was taking action on it weeks before a Dem said a word about it. And he was called a racist for doing that. He has been taking a number of different actions since.
    It's up to rather you wear a mask or not, no need for a POTUS to decide that for you. Everything I've seen from experts (including the govt CDC) is not to wear a mask.

    Seriously! This is a perfect example where people are today, they can't even make intelligent decision for themselves! And they don't even realize that NO other country or their leaders have stopped anything but yet our leftist expect our President to do what no other nation on earth has done..

    Like living with five year old's.

    Lets face it lefties can get panicked easily-whatever their pundits say is taken as scripture.

    Germany used to be quite well-prepared until Chancellor Merkel opened the flood-gates to the Third-World countries in the Middle East and Africa five years ago.

    Today? Just the facts: Germany has 950 confirmed cases of Corona virus, and the total continues to grow daily. Compare that with any other country in the world with so small a population and you see that only Italy is worse!

    There is also the fact that Germany has a median age of 47, just behind Japan-so there are many elderly folks who are susceptible.

    Patient zero in Italy is a pakastani migrant who would not comply with isolation rules, she continued to cook and deliver food for weeks-like a modern day typhoid mary.

    Many viral diseases are seasonal-typically November through March.

    It's a pure blue sky, low humidity, t-shirt and sun screen wearin' day here. Ultraviolet is slaughtering all kinds of viruses by the pan-quin-quad trillions here.

    But deep in the swamp shielded by sawgrass and duckweed, a new max-lethal virus is mutating on a nutria carcass.

    They hate the man, they cry about how dumb he is for years and then look to him for medical advice when the WWW is available. Amazing.

    Trump is the cause for Trump's problems, and thank heavens the American people will no longer stand for it.
