They did not like it when he banned people from China or Italy from coming into the country, yet screech that Trump is incompetent. The democrats really don't care about average Americans. They want power any ANY cost. They are dangerous!!

CDC is under Trump, not Congress.

Travel bans reduce transparency and cooperation from the county you are banning, so that has to be considered as well. If countries know your response is to block people from traveling from their country, what is their incentive to share early information about outbreaks? Trump’s feeble mind is simply incapable of thinking more than 1 step into the future.

Unfortunately, Trump is a one trick pony. Travel bans are his tool for everything, but they don’t solve all problems. They may have delayed the outbreak, but the time that was bought was completely wasted by incompetence.

You are such a broken record that no one takes anything you say seriously. You'd criticize President Trump no matter what he did. You're nothing more than a simple stooge of left wing propaganda. People with any ability to reason at all simply tune out what people like you have to say.

Most folks are smart enough to realize what I said is true. Use your brain.

Yep. Goosey, and a few others here, have ZERO credibility. Well, on anything pertaining to Trump. Goosey can be "okay" on some other matters.

So in your mind, we should not have initiated a travel ban to China, Italy, South Korea, etc. and allowed ANYONE who wanted to come here if they wanted to. This does not make common sense and is irresponsible and reckless. You trust completely what Communist China is reporting on about the extent of the virus?? Ban hurts this how?

That is not what I said.

I said that you have to weigh the costs and benefits, but there are some costs including what I mentioned. Some of these costs can be mitigated.

And how we handle travel bans today influences how quickly and transparently information will be provided to us in the future.

What I am saying is that a travel ban only saves us time, which is valuable when suppressing a disease that can overwhelm your resources, but that TIME is only as valuable as you make of it. In this case, we made very poor use of that time. We should have been testing more broadly weeks ago.

Trump knows how to get the job done!! A great negotiator!

You, of all people, should be tickled about the corona virus. After all, it gives you a chance to rid the population of a good number of us boomer racist homophobes that destroyed the government, housing market and economy for you tender young saplings.

This is your chance to follow the yellow brick road and let the great and powerful wizard be your guide.

Notice, however, it isn't the boomers that are panicking....it's your generation. If you cannot handle a virus, I don't foresee much that you will be able to handle.

I can see how you've been duped, thinking you control the climate and everything else under the sun. Reminds me of the movie "into the Wild" where some young pup wandered off to become one with nature, and it left him hungry and dying in a puddle of his own diarrhea. Expect more of that kind of stuff in the future.

I am not worried for me, personally. I already have everything I could ever want and this disease poses no threat to me.

In more panic news...NSU has joined the chorus of "The sky is falling!" and has cancelled all overseas trips. So much for our trip to Spain in a few weeks...

Dang, did you always fail the test, “Which of these things are not like the others?” ? You have a major “Apple to apples and oranges to oranges” issue.

Did you hear Alzheimer Biden say he was going to cure cancer if elected President? The guy is mentally gone.
