This is an insane overreaction. I cannot believe government is telling business when they can be open etc... This sounds bad but the economic impact of this will far far far outweigh the death toll of the virus. This is going to ruin people’s lives.

If anything good comes from this it’ll be cutting our ties with China and curtailing globalism. frick China.

Finally, an expert is weighing in.

Thank you so much for your keen insights into global pandemics.

The lefties will say if it ends quickly: "see how it stopped it"
and if it blows up they will say: "you didn't do enough".

Love Trump but he fricked up by letting the CDC and NIH people talk w/o knowing all what they were going to say. The media pounced on it and created the storm, and he didn't walk it back. Unfortunately he owns it and it will cost him the election. Those that hate him will come out against him. Those that got thrown to the wolves with this panic won't bother. The door is open for the crooked dementia patient.

It's all an overreaction until it's not.

Italy and Spain didn't take this seriously and they are fricked.

We are closing schools and stuff earlier than Italy did. Let's hope that pays dividends.

Nah.

Look at what other countries have had to try to do to slow it down. This is small potatoes.

The number of people who go bankrupt over the next year will dwarf the number of deaths.

I support the idea but I think it is stupid to say it’s ok to have gatherings of up to 50 people. Just eliminate gatherings for a month.

Agree 100%. I’m pro Trump but he fricked this one up.

Gov Honor Code is no surprise.

This has set a dangerous precedent.

you know how when you see an object at a distance away, you are not seeing an object as it is, but as it was when the reflected light left it?

its like that

you are seeing the effective spread of the virus as it was 2 weeks ago, not as it is now

I'll make sure to remind of this when your mom/dad die of the virus. Hope they were worth the extra money you made

Definitely will not happen. Cheap labor trumps all. Even at the detriment of this country’s citizens.
