There is wanting to act in your country’s best interests and then there’s HORRIBLE optics. But Urine Man’s voters will still support him. I feel horrible for the American people. His actions do not speak of someone who has a plan. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be true - seems like the type of thing Donald's often accused of trying - that being said I find it concerning how many people jumped on board without a source or link off the top.

It's perfectly reasonable to ask why in a situation such as this, even if the answer isn't one you want to hear. Except he's a master at not giving info and sticking to a script and he did that the entire time he was asked the same question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also sounds like there will be an announcement of some sort regarding school closures tomorrow. What about restaurants and cafes? I think a full on shut down will happen. Just a matter of weeks.

Darius Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 And in other news https://www.biospace.com/article/moderna-s-covid-19-vaccine-clinical-trial-starts-today/ Quote Inside the U.S., the first clinical trial for a vaccine to the novel coronavirus that causes COVID-19 began today. It is mRNA-1273, developed by Moderna with the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease (NIAID). The product was shipped to NIAID on February 25. mRNA-1273 is a mRNA vaccine that encodes for a prefusion stabilized form of the Spike (S) protein. It was chosen by Moderna researchers in collaboration with scientists at the NIAID Vaccine Research Center (VRC). Funding for the manufacture of the batch came from the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI). The trial is being conducted at the Kaiser Permanente Washington Health Research Institute in Seattle. The first patient was dosed today. The trial will include 45 young, healthy volunteers who will receive different doses of the vaccine. Because the vaccine does not contain the actual virus, there is no possibility the participants will become infected from the vaccine. The goal of the test is to evaluate any safety issues and determine the appropriate dose to stimulate an effective immune response. A number of other companies and institutions around the world are also working to develop a vaccine against the virus, including Inovio Pharmaceuticals, which expects to begin its trial at the University of Pennsylvania and at a testing center in Kansas City, Missouri next month.

States have constitutional powers regarding quarantines and public health. Trump: With several weeks of coordinated action we can turn the corner Our government is prepared to do whatever it takes Worst of outbreak could be over by July or August or later Considering a national quarantine or curfew US "may be" heading into a recession, we're not thinking in terms of that The virus isn't under control anywhere I think you're going to see a tremendous surge in the economy We haven't really determined a national curfew but we have not decided to do it US will back the airlines 100%, we're going to be backstoppping them US case nearly doubled today, according to the CDC. This comment hit the market: Question: When will US coronavirus cases and deaths turn a corner? Pres. Trump: ""People are talking about July, August, something like that... Someday soon, hopefully this will end." ********************* Nice to see he's changed his tune. Edited March 16, 2020 by nuckin_futz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What we need for feds is to release the army Corp of engineers to build temp hospitals and increase capacity. He is not doing it. States like NY have to find ways to do it. Our system can't handle the wave that is coming. Probably by end of the month we will be like Italy. Guys back home, do your effin part. Stay home as much as you can, don't help spread the virus. Majority will do OK even infected, but to save lives you just need to slow the spread. Edited March 16, 2020 by Jaimito 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

US, a nation extremely slow and questionable in handling of the situation still has free reign to come into Canada. That's not a legitimate concern? And of course people want things done sooner. Each day sooner exponentially helps eradicate the problem. Because listening to the medical experts who have flat out. Unequivocally. Without question stated that full border closures do nothing Is wrong. But of course comments sections from emotionally charged people on line know better? Let that sink in. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
