Slow down. Take a deep breath.

Wait, don’t do that

Typing while breathing thru a paper bag!

Good thing trump shut down the NIAID. (National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases) and has yet to appoint new personnel. He's not going to. He took an entire division of the CDC from 50 people to 10 and that was 2 YEARS ago.
trump is a danger to America.

We imported 35 patients from the Diamond Princess cruise liner to the same facility in Nebraska we brought the ebola patients to.

I fully expect human trials to happen there quickly.

Returning to my thoughts on North Korea..... they might get so hard that they can actually feed all of their people when this is over.

TDS at its finest ...

As of now based off what were being told it’s been contained in this country ... that could blow up at any second and i suspect it will ... BUT FOR NOW based of what we know and the FACTS, to blame your president for gutting the NIAID is plain flat out TDS ...

Nice job finding a way to take a shot at him over here ...

It was stupid to gut it in the first place.

The trump administration isn’t even on the same page with the CDC.

I don’t know enough about it to talk intelligently about it ... all i know is what Port did was TDS at its finest ...

North Korea has their wonder drug that cures AIDS, cancer and many more diseases. I am sure it cures Coronavirus too.

It's called death...cures it all...

I think that's how Russia go their two cases "cured" so quickly, lol

You may wish to consider your source.

Wow ... your ready for cnn or msnbc ...

Parse the entire quote and post the portion of it that fits your agenda ,,, very nice ... good job, you’ve sunk to a new low ...

Is what I said wrong? Please inform me if it is.

It's pretty simple but you never address the actual subject. You just address the person who posted it. The CDS made it plain by saying, "It's not a matter of if, it's a matter of when". That in no way indicates that it's "been contained".

So you go ahead and attack the messenger rather than the actual topic. It's what you do.

This is really good read for everyone:

I did ... may the good lord bless u if u can’t comprehend that ..

Says the guy who parses posts to change there meaning in order to mislead ... CLASS ACT Pit .. a real class act ...

So it is contained or it isn't? I see you still refuse to answer that.

You did nothing of the sort. Did trump cut NIAID and CDC staff and funding or not?

I'm going to assume he did... and I'm going to state that it doesn't matter.

This is happening, and would still happen even if he'd doubled their size and funding instead.

I does matter. We fund these things to help fight outbreaks such as this. We don’t just hope warm weather kills it off.

There’s my initial post ... I’m not quite sure how much clearer i can be ... u twist the post and Port want’s to act all innocent and parse his post leaving his conclusion out and then asking me questions based on half his post ..

U and Pit have fun living in your hate filled TDS world ... I’m out ... u two enjoy each other ..

Faced with facts you fold like a cheap camp chair.
trump cut funding and staff. Period. Have fun living in a trump ‘fact-less’ bubble.

The head of the National Institute of Health said today that yes, it is contained in America.

Fauci praised U.S. health officials for properly containing the virus thus far, and reiterated his call for the public to continue to "do the things you always do" when preventing other viruses, such as the flu.

"If you look at what has been done thus far in this country, it is correct that it has been contained very successfully," Fauci said. "We have not had communities spread from person-to-person -- that is good news.

"It might change, so ... right now it is under control but that doesn't mean you can let your guard down and think that it's nothing to be concerned about."

I don't think that's really the issue. I think the issue is the ability to respond to it. I don't know enough about that to say one way or the other but I'm sure that's the concern.

Yet a new case was just reported....

I think you misunderstand what I'm saying.
It has, and still would have had, absolutely zero impact on the fact that this is going to hit everywhere.

They would not have done anything that NIH and the rest of the world, literally, wasn't already working on.

NIH has it covered, however: The first human trial (from the Diamond Princess) is underway.

And it is contained.

No.

NIH disagrees.

Please show me how/where they state this. Provide links and quotes. Then I'll show you what is either an old article with outdated information, or someone outright lying.


The very fact that there are LARGE pop-up clusters in various countries with no known origin states that it is not contained. With Italy being one of the largest ones, and there being LOTS of tourist traffic between Italy and the US, not to mention between Italy and all of Europe - which also has people traveling to the US, it is now logistically IMPOSSIBLE to consider ourselves contained. It IS coming here. That is NOT hyperbole. Just because the official numbers aren't showing it, yet, does not support an assertion that it is contained.

The genie is out of the bottle. Containment failed.

Ok, I will post it again just for you.

The date is today...

Ugh, you're arguing semantics by deliberately taking a myopic view.

Yes, I see what he said - and I concede the truth in the statement that the cases that are currently here have remained contained, indeed, but what you are ignoring in favor of latching onto that very meaningless tidbit is the opening paragraphs that very clearly state that it is not contained in the rest of the world, and the rest of the world travels here.

So, yes.... the cases that we know of here in the US are contained thus far.

-- THAT ISN'T THE POINT BECAUSE THAT MEANS VERY, VERY LITTLE --

The point is, and the very real threat is, that it is still coming. Not from those cases that we know are here, but from the ones that are not. From Italy, from Spain. From people that wait in line near a person in Morocco who just came from Hungary where they sat for lunch with someone that visited Italy and became a carrier.

Since these large clusters popped up in places like Italy & Iran with no warning and no idea where the source is, and because it can be transmitted before anyone has so much as a sniffle or a fever, these clusters very likely already transmitted it to people traveling through those areas and are now exposing more people in different areas, and so on, and so on, and so on, ad infinitum...

It means that nobody can get ahead of it any longer. There is no more containment, only reactive quarantines after-the-fact.

Nope y'all just act like traveling all over the world is just so, so safe.

Well, it is, really.

Traveling is safe. Getting funky with market critters, not so much.

I've seen a good chunk of the world, and aside from the parts that throw lead at you, the worst part was the immunizations you have to get before you go (unless you drink the water in Mexico).

Of course it is a real threat, that is why I started this thread about it.

I agree they may not be able to contain it forever here in America but so far, so good.

He assures us everything that can be done is being done.

The truth is, so far, it ain't much more than an easy to catch Flu. It could go away come spring, never to be seen again or it could come back, year after year, like the Flu.
By then we should have a Corona shot available, just like the Flu shot I get every year.

I was in Mexico once. I didn't eat or drink a damn thing

That water is probably what will kill this virus.

Good thing, you might have gotten the Corona-Virus.
