How is it that we're such a rich nation, supposedly all that and a bag of chips, when other nations like South Korea, China, and Italy have been able to test at drastically greater volume than we are? And not only are we the richest, we also had the benefit of like two months of foresight into this situation. Epidemiologists and doctors are pointing out daily how we've dropped the ball on this.
Why isn't Trump's CDC appointee kicking some asses over there? Why isn't Trump? I think he realizes this is already a **** show, which is why he shoved Mike Pence into the spotlight to take the hit.
If you don't even have working capacity to test at scale, you're in the dark as to the real current scope of the problem you're trying to tackle. How can you be successful this way?
We are such a pathetic popsicle stand.
Yet, democrats want them to manage our entire healthcare system!
Plastic bottles are bad for the environment, however, you do feel much safer drinking bottled water versus boiled water because bottled water doesn't have any contaminants. Boiling water kills a lot of bacteria, however, it doesn't remove dissolved chemicals or particulates.
Honestly, this is just my own opinion and my own feeling, I feel boiling water is much better at this point. Plus, I drink a lot of grapefruit juice and I drink a mixed vegetable juice everyday. (horrible tasting, but you have to do what you have to do) My mixed vegetable combination is: green pepper, cabbage, eggplant, tomato, and garlic) lol
I am with you there, I don't care if they are out of bottled water.
Ironically, if shelves are empty of bottled water and municipal water supply is compromised, the next best thing might be to drink lots of Corona.
well everyone seems to be saying the government is doing nothing...…. I would consider that something...… and is it not the over 65 population most at risk to die?
You would think the younger people would be rejoicing about this as it would reduce the load on SSI....
Here is a coronavirus test for you. Are you Black, Hispanic? You are fine
Racially, this resembles sars. East Asia, elderly, seem most susceptible. No data from Italy. Seems to be a real pattern here. No deaths on the continent of Africa with 1.3 billion people especially Sub-Saharan Africa. No panic buying in Latin America or eastern Europe.
It's not Trump's or anyone's fault coronavirus exists. It is Trump's fault he didn't take swift, decisive action to stop its spread. Indeed, he actively resisted funding efforts for testing until Congress begged him to sign for it.

Well, he did eventually tell someone else to do it - which will allow him, as usual, to put any blame somewhere else. So there is that!
This, of course, was after he cut many government positions and agencies and funding which were supposed to help with such things.
As they say, better late than never.
Depending on your view you can give the Admin a D or an E on their total response....hard to give an F, although they appear not to give an F.
huh. but you claimed you said they lied when you did not say that.
does that mean you lied?
inquiring minds want to know..
this is light years from saying they lied:
Twist it as you want.
