almost 20 million residents, about 8-9 million of them living close together in the NY metro area. Their first case was March 1. A week ago they had 173 cases. They will hit 1,000 confirmed cases today if they haven't already. He's constantly informing the public of their response.


OK I get it. But I guess my question should have been why is he on the national channels? Why not his news outlets in NY?

It's warm, not as many people travel in and out of the heart of it and very little tests.

Similar to Mexico.

And when I say not as many travel in and out, I'm just comparing to massive economic hubs like China, US and Europe.

Because what happens in the most populous and densely packed city in the US is of national importance.

Bet you live in a shite hole where no one travels in and out so you're probably good even with a Planet Fitness level sanitation program.

Hope you don't see your parents or grandparents often.

It's got to be testing. I get that there's not many people traveling in and out of India, but once there you would think it would explode with their population and sanitation. They are still under 200 confirmed cases.

I wouldn’t have bothered by my chest is starting to hurt from the coughing and short breath. I used to have asthma and I grew up around a mother that smoked non stop so I don’t have the strongest lungs in the world.

Im curious to see how long this “no cases in EBR” false narrative hangs around when everyone and their mother knows it’s BS.

The latitude plays a part as well from what I've been reading.

But more than likely testing.

It's also probably been there for a lot longer than people think. (similar to the US and Europe)

Insane to think if it was in China in December (more likely October/Nov), it didn't get here until Feb.
