This is an anecdotal report and subject to confirmation, but my son received information from a Denver news station where he has a contact (we recently moved to Tennessee from there) that TODAY, Trump sent their station a message asking them to NOT report unemployment numbers "in the best interests of the nation."

"Interests of the nation?" Right!!

The article stated Taiwan being so close to China and speaking the same language learned early of the impeding spreading "severe pneumonia" so the first day this was announced Taiwan began screening incoming passengers. In going to assume their president didnt have any resistance from an opposing "congress" and media calling him racist.
So yes given those facts and that Taiwan sent a task force to China within two weeks, Taiwan was more prepared than the US, Russia, Italy, Spain.........

They drink quite a lot of potato squeezings
There are a lot of Chinese in Africa. The natives may be getting it, but only asymptomatic and not deadly ill.

Do the math; you will be wrong. There is no vaccine and no cure. So there is no preparation.
Daily Cases: US 4,530, Taiwan: 23


Yes you are right, I'm wrong

China hid the virus and one of the first things Trump did was cutoff China travel, that saved a bunch of us right there. Nobody saw this coming and at first it appeared to be very mild with some experiencing no symptoms and some just a light fever for a day or two........then the nasty stuff hit some oldies and it was a calamity certainly HYPED by the Trump hating media that you obviously enjoy...........

I shudder to think what would happen if the Hildebeast had got in.............

Why is the rest of the world hyping this if it's Trump-hating media to blame? You guys are so deluded about how crappy Trump is at this job, that the only rational explanation you can come up with is that the rest of the world is on the scam, just to screw over ONE PERSON. Do you see how GD mental that sounds when it's actually written out?
