A person with common sense would say leave the boat out there and let the virus run its course as opposed to bringing a new source of the virus ashore. But I get it, orange man bad.

So you probably don’t like the idea that it’s docking in Oakland and unloading passengers in the next day or so. In fact you probably think the persons who made that decision don’t have common sense.

Yes but for the flu we have a vaccine and treatment experience. This seems magnitudes worse, at least in the near term.

Is it really worse though? I don’t ask this to be argumentative. I think this is truly what everybody is trying to figure out. Maybe I’m just not smart enough to understand the freakout, but it seems to me that there are a number of other illnesses that are exponentially more dangerous right now.

Hey genius there are 240 cases at this point in a country of over 340 million was Brian Williams your math professor?

I get his concern. But being a Democrat he really has no voice in this considering that they have no problem letting unvaccinated illegal aliens over or people that have HIV spread it unknowingly to others.

If it’s unloading in Oakland I’m fine with that.

The early travel restrictions probably are to thank for why we aren't in nearly as bad a situation as many countries around the world. It also bought just enough time to get the tests produced so we will have them when needed if large-scale quarantines become a question.

I would say the "adults" referenced are the CDC and the special CV Task Force.

But the left can't blame them on the President.

Italy had a similar number a few weeks ago. Now they have about 5k, and going up. In those communities hardest hit, they are turning hospital hallways into emergency rooms.

Plus, as we know, we are not testing people like other nations are. The actual number is likely significantly higher.

It's the acute nature of this that's a problem.

Again, hard to say. We know that the majority of cases are mild/subclinical. So, the actual mortality rate will drop, probably significantly, when we have a better idea how many people are contracting the virus but not seeking medical attention. That will only happen if we do large-scale testing in areas of outbreak, and I'm not even sure the logistics of that.

I'm just saying maybe don't bang on someone for using wrong numbers and then shore up your point with wrong numbers.

Ok so the increase in testing has resulted in more confirmed cases. More than I knew at the time of my post it still doesn't make the post about people like you only looking to stir crap. Never offering anything if substantive value to any decision. But we get it that's who you are and that's ok. Just stop playing on people's fears. Maybe it works with some people but adults who possess the ability to think but do much.

Answer how this is more of a problem for people who are not suceptable to these types of virus?

You failed to note Italy is in Europe. Notorious for letting anyone an everyone in and out of the country

And how are you going to know how many people had it and never went to a doctor? If it just felt like a cold many aren’t going to get tested for that.

Where have I played on anyone's fears in this thread or others? Can you cite one example or is this just you posturing for the crowd while backtracking from an ill advised post?

You drew me into your conversation, so here I am, congratulations. Earlier, you referred to "septic bros", I'm simply trying to ascertain what that means - are 'septic bro's' people who get free rent in your head?
