I'd like to see the faces of the nay sayers here in a couple of weeks. The growth of this virus is exponitial. All that is being seen is the tip of the ice berg. Unknown cases and lack of testing means the couple of hundred cases now seen in Washington State is actually several thousand and growing.
They did two things that we aren't.
1 massive numbers of testing.
2 mandatory quarantining even closing off whole cities.
bingo. And I cant see this administration doing either. They've certainly failed at #1. LOL. Remember last week when trump said over a million tests would be available?

Problem is you guys and your media megaphones have cried wolf too many times and a massive number of people don’t believe you.
You may be correct, who knows, but the trust is gone permanently so don’t expect your word and opinion to be of any value.

Yep, we are likely further along the exponential growth curve than the numbers show because of our dismal failure to scale testing infrastructure in a timely manner BEFORE the exponential growth of the virus took off.
Now we are stuck trying to scale infrastructure at the exact same time the virus growth curve takes off. We are effectively in a race we cannot win, the virus will scale faster at this point than we can.
Between April 2009 and April 2010, there were 60+ million cases of Swine flu resulting in 12,469 deaths in the US. Do you see anything like that happening now with Corona virus? I'm not saying we should ignore it, but the numbers of those with the virus and dying from it are not even close to what happened with Swine flu.
The media was covering for Obama (a given for any casual observer of politics) and I believe the media who hates Trump, is ginning this up to take advantage of a crisis in hopes it will damage him before the election.
60 million cases of coronovirus would mean about 1.5 million dead. And this is FAR more contagious then H1N1 is. So you're comparing the start of something to the entirety of something else.
This is more contagious, and more deadly. Its truly stunning that people do this, comparing h1n1 to this. H1N1 on average one person gave it to 1.5 others. Coronovirus? roughly 2.5, which is FAR worse. Lethality? Coronovirus is going to kill LOT more people.

Yes, what is the major malfunction on testing kits? Please dont answer unless you have concrete information.
Im hearing "regulatory hurdles and problems at the cdc" and a fault in their earlier test kit. Unacceptable.
