A permit to be on public streets? How is this constitutional? How is this not a police state?

It got its start on a cruise ship and a nursing home in Washington, those were the first cases but it did spread to dense population centers rapidly. Why wouldn't you expect a city like NY to have a rapid spread with the largest train and subway system in the US along with several major airports.


But somehow you got left wing politics when states like Texas and Oklahoma are still in denial. This will spread to every state but to say that these put politic is ahead of safety is really a read state virtue, they are slow to believe in any science that conflicts with Trump's perception.


NY and other states have been far ahead of others in their actions, particularly those Midwest red states.

Nepal had one case and cleared it as "recovered". They currently sit at zero cases.

Time to adopt Nepal's health care system.

I have yet to see you criticize chuk shumer for calling trump a racist to include (chuck did not do it), but trump was also called a xenophobe for saying this is a "china virus."
