Cancelled flights TO China. Of course they will cancel flights to a virus stricken area.

Trump took bold action with stopping influx from China. Even bolder action when he did the same with the EU countries. That was shocking to all.

why didn't he close flights in January when he was first advised of the seriousness of the consequences? He was warned that a potential 200,00 could die yet he kept trotting out to the podium and claiming it's all under control and patting himself on the back.
 
Trump just rambles and takes up air time. He doesn't really share anything new. Then when he gets a question he doesn't like he gets all pissed off about it.

Cancelling flights to requires cancelling flights from. Airplanes don't magically appear at airports in China, they are flown there.

It was shocking because it was so pointless and random. UK travelers are fine but EU aren't?

Bold action my ass.

Article didn't say they stopped outbound flights.

They stopped UK flights shortly after I believe.

EU is different from the UK, since Brexit.

Who advised him? Didn't the WHO say that country bans were uncessary?
 
Press secretary who held no briefings is gone. New press secretary was campaign spokesperson who on February 25 went on Fox to explain thanks to Trump's great leadership there will be no Corona virus epidemic in this country. Because Trump puts safety of America first, not like weak leadership of President Obama during Ebola.

Check how many Americans died, how many lost jobs, how many businesses closed due to Ebola.

13 people at Pennsylvania nursing home die from coronavirus as bosses say they assume that all 450 residents and 300 staff now have it
  • There are 96 cases at Brighton Rehabilitation Centre with 13 of them staff
  • It's reported there have been 13 deaths in connection to COVID-19
  • However the home started to 'shift away from test results' last week
  • 'We know that the count of positives is not a true representation of the number of cases, as it is,' a Department of Health spokesman said
  • The rep added: 'For locations that are seeing a large number of cases and there is frequent contact, it can be assumed there is community spread in a location'
  • He said it's 'similar to how we are assuming there is community spread in Pennsylvania'
  • In Pennsylvania, over 14,850 cases had been confirmed as of Tuesday afternoon and there were 179 related deaths

I'm ok with forcibly enforcing social distancing. Fine people not wearing masks too.

That's why I said fake news. The tv station that ran it said it was for playing in the park.

The cops shouldn't have even bothered him. I might have told them to pound sand myself.

Nah. People should stay home and this needs to be enforced

Nope. Even if we did what you want that isn't what the rules were. What should the guy do, make his daughter run wind sprints?

Yes. Fuck them both. Everyone is on lockdown, unemployed. Follow the rules. Stop thinking you are special and can go outside and play.

They can throw a ball inside their house.
