I think everything you're saying is accurate. The people in the US didn't have access to the tests until too many people were infected for testing alone to stop the spread. I think a lot of that is the CDC's fault, or whatever government agency tried to develop a "perfect" test rather than approving the "good" tests that were developed already. But some of the fault is with Congress and the White House. They had to twist the arms of private insurance to get testing covered. There was no decision until March 16th. in a better world, when the government declares a national emergency, it would be clear to everyone that the government will pay the costs of stopping the virus that caused the national emergency.

But congrats for being a loyal trumpette deflector. The US did quite a good job up front with regards to travel bans, just other countries have much better systems in place to deal with containing the virus.

Your claim about cutting taxes and public services does not apply since spending on the CDC increased. Is this the same WHO that killed a trial of Hydroxy because of "dangerous side effects" of the 70 year old drug. We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!

Fine work.I Of course I don't, that's why I know we're doing much better than you say. We're admittedly overstating our numbers while China and Russia and many others are clearly understating theirs. Thanks for the chuckles. (05-26-2020, 07:21 AM)jj82284 Wrote:(05-26-2020, 12:02 AM)lastonealive Wrote: You didn't trust the WHO. You banned travel from China before they suggested it.

He takes it as a given that spending more money on public health would always result in less deaths, and he's exasperated that you don't see his logic. As I said above, making wiser decisions doesn't always cost more money. And having high spending in normal times is not a pre-requisite for spending the appropriate amount of money to deal with an emergency.

The travel ban was after WHO and the ChiComs (but I repeat myself) admitted that the virus could be spread from person to person, a fact they knew but denied for nearly a month. You really should stop commenting on US policy when you are clueless about it. "Why should I give information to you when all you want to do is find something wrong with it?"

There was no "fact" involved in their advice, and the admission that it could be spread from person to person was wisely acted on by Trump in the form of a travel ban rather than follow their globalist travel advice. Do you not understand the difference between someone giving advice and someone stating a fact? "Why should I give information to you when all you want to do is find something wrong with it?"
When did they declare it could be spread from person to person and when did they declare it can't be spread from person to person?
Hopefully you have some links this time. This deflection is way off what you originally quoted me on but I'll try and let you get something right in your deflection attempt
Looks like many of the 100k COVID deaths were never tested for the virus at all. The numbers are bogus.

He banned travel to China and temporarily banned entry from foreign nationals that had visited China in the previous two weeks. But not all international flights, not considering that anyone entering the US from the UK or elsewhere could have contracted the virus through any other means. Only US citizens that had been in China the previous two weeks were given enhanced screening at select ports. Notably, even after his travel ban, 40k people came to the US on flights from China.
