OT Coronavirus: America in chaos, News and Updates. One million Americans dead and counting

I was at Carnivale in Venice last week (which has now been cancelled). I did have a slight fever a few days ago, but it passed after a day. Chalked that up to jet lag/travel. All good now.

 

You always have to listen to Dick Pound, the longest serving member.

57 in USA now.

 

Member Dick Pound!

 

LOL.

What do you think I get from a big city? Lung cancer? Liver cancer? Deafness? A bullet in the back from a crackhead? Death from an illegal alien drunk driver? Human feces on my shoe bottoms? Screamed at by homeless insane people unleashed when Brown cut mental healthcare?

Where do you think big city bozos get their meat, their vegetables, their fruits, their drinkable water, the lumber for their homes, their electricity, their gas, the small portion of their air that is not polluted, all the basic necessities for a comfortable and healthy life?

Portland is actually propped up by taxes from rural Oregon, and we get about a 30%return in value for what we "contribute"to the state.

 

Border security is all that stands between Americans and death.

Dr Messonier said although the threat of coronavirus in the US is currently slim, the infection's international spread abroad makes containment at the US border and within the nation increasingly difficult.

Time to completely lock America down and shut the doors until this WMD is neutralized worldwide, which will take years. I feel sorry for anyone who owns stock in travel or transit companies.

The silver lining is American companies are withdrawing their factories and employees from China, strengthening America's bottom line.

 

Gordon Chang praises US for acting 'very, very quickly' against coronavirus spread
By Charles Creitz | Fox News

China expert Gordon Chang joined "The Ingraham Angle" on Tuesday to react to criticism of the American government's response to the coronavirus epidemic.

Chang told host Laura Ingraham that despite some critics' claims, the United States acted appropriately and is taking the right steps to protect Americans from the virus.

He also admonished MSNBC analyst Andrew Weissmann, formerly Robert Mueller's top prosecutor in the Russia investigation, over comments Ingraham said could be summarized as "globalism is the answer."

CORONAVIRUS INFECTS US SOLDIER FOR FIRST TIME, MILITARY SAYS

"That is clearly lunacy," Chang said. "The reason we don't have more cases in the U.S. right now is because we did issue those travel advisories [and] we did put people into quarantine. We have these travel restrictions."

Chang said that the Chinese government has criticized the U.S. for taking those actions, but noted that Beijing is currently taking restrictive measures within its own country.

"If we didn't do this, we would be looking like Italy or South Korea, or God forbid, even worse right now," he said.

"These are measures that people don't like -- I understand that. The point is [that] an epidemic is an extraordinary circumstance. If you are going to control it, you've got to do it fast. China has a problem now because it let the virus spread for six weeks," he said. "The U.S. acted very, very quickly."

Earlier Tuesday, Fox News medical correspondent Dr. Marc Siegel caught up with Nebraska Medicine Executive Director of Emergency Management and Biopreparedness Shelly Schwedhelm Tuesday night in Omaha, where she oversees the department tasked with monitoring Americans infected with coronavirus.

Schwedhelm told "Tucker Carlson Tonight" that the patients are all in "stable" condition and are "doing very well."

"We're doing our best to get them whatever they need to be comfortable, and working through all the issues that they have ... with lost luggage and other things," she added.

 

Also, thus far only 2 Americans have acquired the disease in the US...and both of those got the virus from their spouses.
