    Some of this is legitimate medical community precaution. Some of it is opportunism to push out the sitting president.

    The voice of reason

    A normal reaction to this would not be what we are seeing now

    Every year we get a warning of a new kind of flu and are urged to take precautions and we should

    Far worse cases with far higher deaths didn't close anything

    Yeah, I have to say, I'm not sure what more people expect of their government. At some point, if you need Jay Inslee to tell you to WASH YOUR FUCKING HANDS before picking your nose then you probably should get corona virus.

    I honestly have no criticism of anyone in terms of how this has been handled. I was thinking the other day, besides FDRs great speach following Pearl Harbor, and maybe W's response to 9-11, which was far and away his shining moment, has any President ever been great in a crisis? Don't they all get criticized? We're Americans. We like to bitch. It's who we are.

    And damn proud of it

    I support skepticism of government and eliminating the cult of personality around any president. Live your damn life or your best life as the kids say today

    LIPO. We'll know in a few months time whether the panic was merited or not.

    Like the IMPEACHMENT!!!!! ???

    Not a good analogy.
    Actually perfect.
    Disagree. Anyone with a brain new how impeachment was gonna play out. The markets barely noticed. Not the case here.
    This is gonna play out like New Coke.

    Thud. Go back to the old flu prevention protocol. Wash hands. Drink fluids. Take your vitamins. Beat off furiously when necessary.
    My gut tells me this is the case, but I'm not in the prediction bidness anymore.

    I'm in the bulls eye of CV hell right now with work, kid's schools closed for weeks at a minimum, pre-schedule out patient surgery for the wife being cancelled, etc, etc. I can't recall anything like this in my lifetime as it relates to a germ hysteria. Something has the worldwide medical community spooked and it's not just some Donkey conspiracy to take down Trump.
    Is it really the medical community that is spooked? I just pasted a note from WHO which is part of the UN world wide communist conspiracy and he said 80% will have mild symptoms. The usual people who die off every year from the flu will continue to do so

    Right now it is a media and internet panic attack creation until it isn't

    And it is clearly being used as a hail mary against Trump. That isn't even a question.
    Why is Italy trying to take down Trump?
    Who said they were?

    The US has done nothing as extreme as them.

    My viewpoint. LIPO. awfully warm to crown the CV-19 virus as the conference champion. The reactions are clearly politically motivated at worst or snowflake policies at best. If we saw explosive exponential growth of deaths ( the ultimate measure people care about ) in WA state or elsewhere in the US on a daily basis, I'd be ready to crown the CV-19 but that's simply not happening...

    It doesn't take a math major to see this.

    Because it is Italy

    You think that somehow disproves the blatant politicization of the issue in the US? Can't help you then

    Let's focus on what is happening in the good old USA

    So if Cankles was POTUS and all other things being eqaul my kids wouldn't be out of school for 2 weeks now and NBA would still be on?

    Good to know that my life is being fucked with in so many ways because of a conspiracy to get Trump.
    Well has the flu caused this type of reaction before? Nope. The last thing to cause this reaction was AIDS and we would be homophobic bigots if we reacted like this. Do the math

    Did the democrats blame your boy for a hurricane? Why yes they did. The playbook never changes.

    You can call it a conspiracy if you want but it is what it is. Its the democrats and their media and social media looking to not let an alleged crisis go to waste

    How may sick people do you know?

    We politicize everything in America.

    And let's not kid ourselves. The right would be trying to use this against a Democratic president without question.

    They just wouldn't have the mainstream media's support.
