I still laugh that Trump is everything a southern person hates and they've all been duped by him. Who knew all it took was to be racist and troll to get the rednecks to follow you.

Basically, if you don't live in a shithole or a poorly run end-of-life care center, your chance of dying is about 1%.
That’s still not a good number though, right?

"You can keep your doctor"
"You will save $2500 a year on your premiums"
"Bill Ayers was a guy from the neighborhood"
See how easy this is Low TBoy ?!

There is THE bottom line. The Dems can kiss their Open Border/Universal Healthcare Policy good bye. It has bit them in the arse, and rational folk now know what is on the line.
The next Virus...like the next *Trump*...will likely be a lot meaner.

were those comments from Obama all regarding the same issue, in the span of the same economic quarter?
wonder which one of those is trump’s “heckuva job, brownie” moment? or is it still to come?

Somewhere in the middle of it being the end of times and a hoax is the truth, partisan hacks trying to score political points on both sides are the problem.

Because it's always great the president downplays something until it gets out of control. Something we saw coming a mile away. Instead of preparing he did the worst thing and denied the virus would be a problem here. He only cares about his image.

Meh, he took a calculated risk that causing panic would provide no benefit in finding a solution, cant blame him for that.
The one thing he should have done differently was shut down travel from all of China day 1 and added to the list every country that reported a case.

Many lefties can't seem to understand the mortality of this thing is way overestimated.
Since testing is low in many countries the denominator is low. That makes the entire fraction larger. The likely number of infections in the country is at least ten times the rate accepted.
That's not too spread fear, that is just a dose of reality. This virus had been in the country for weeks. Thousands have had it. Most thought of this is a little cold. Some thought they had the flu. A not insignificant portion had it and didn't even have any symptoms.
There will be more deaths from the flu this year in the United States than this virus.
So let me say trump has wobbled a bit early but to be fair this has never happened in anyone's lifetime. This is a totally new type of event for the world.
First he tried to maintain calm. Which is one hundred percent what he was supposed to do. The media continued to stoke fear. He listened to some recommendations that the CDC made and let them handle it.
The media continued with the fear. The country was panicking when there is no reason for it. So trump had to take drastic steps. Some of these measures are good, some are to show the panicked sheeple that there are steps being done so people calm down.
Trump now is on this. I don't want to build this president up, but he let the CDC control the response totally because they were the experts.
When they proved little help, he has to step in. Say what you will about the president but the man knows how to get shite done. And now trump is pissed that this virus that should be treated with respect has instead panicked the whole country because of the media.
So shite will get done, and it will get done quickly.
At the end of the day don't worry about the reported death rate because it is inflated because of the low rate of diagnosis. We smoke much less than China or Italy and are younger than Italy. You want to talk about a totally fricked response? Look at Italy.
Yesterday when trump declared an emergency, he said China hold my beer. The United States is now on this motherfricker and I suspect better treatment soon and a vaccine within four to six months.

Is it a hoax?
Depends...
Does the virus exist? Absolutely.
Does the virus spread easily? By all indications, yes.
Is it going to kill everyone? No.
Is it going to kill most of the people it infects? No.
Are most of the people infected going to get ill to the point of needing hospitalization? No.
Are most infected people going to know they have it? No.
Are most of the infected that perceive they are ill going to have symptoms different in type or severity from a severe cold, or seasonal flu? No.
Will the virus kill the elderly and those with serious underlying health issues? Yes.
Do other viruses kill the elderly and those with serious underlying health issues? Yes.
Is this virus more fatal the elderly and those with serious underlying health issues? Based in current global statistics, apparently so.
Is this virus more fatal the elderly and those with serious underlying health issues in countries with modern medical care and robust preventive measures? Unclear.
So, it's not the disease that's a hoax...IT'S THE BREATHPESS HYSTERIA BY THE MEDIA AND THE POLITICAL ATTACKS BY THE DEMOCRATS THAT IS THE HOAX

Maybe, just maybe, there is something to be said for trying to quell panic and buy a little time.
Then again, perhaps, not pausing for a second on your chief goal of gitten him, may prove you be a more effective strategy for all this.

There is a disproportionate level of media hype vs. loss of life in the U.S.

This guy is spot frickin on..Thank God for reasonable people who are not falling for this Deep State propaganda bullshite...
This is a nothingburger spun up to make panic go viral. I 100% had this shite in January and it has been making the rounds for months. The reason test kits are late is to let it get entrenched and then show a "spike" that is not reality..it is a mix of old and new cases of a weak virus that is less deadly by far than the flu. Wake up people.
