Massachusetts just had their first case, 8th in the U.S.

It makes for great news fodder but I'm not as concerned about this virus.

So long as one isn't older and in ill/weak health, it's apparently not as bad as SARS or other such infections.

It hasn't spread as bad as I thought it would to this point outside of China. The fact we already caught and isolated many of these is good news.

Too late now. Trump was more interested in keeping the stock values up than protecting the country from this threat. We will all be getting the virus. We will be a much younger country in a couple years.

But progressives told us it’s racist to put travel bans on countries.

They make an exception if it means they might catch this virus.




Meanwhile, Delta, United & American have halted flights to China.

When the bans are for purely racist reasons such as believers in Islam from certain countries; that would be a logical response.

I don't believe "diseases" and any related travel restrictions would have a purely racial component.

It's no surprise you have a problem with the differentiation when it comes to your agenda of partisan hate.

Haaar, a political ideology is now capable of confining diseases so that it is provable that the U.S. has remained immune from all of those over the eons ...… .... where do you get this stuff?



You're a hoot.

What will the leftists do if it is an Israeli Jew who comes up with the vaccine? Wonder if the BDS crowd will boycott it.
Nope didn't hear that at all.
