One Decision on Social Distancing Could Have Prevented 90% of US Coronavirus Deaths

He doesn't have the power to open the country but he has the power to close it?
He has the power to declare a national emergency and a national stay at home order, along with the power to rescind each. He doesn't have the power to force governors to relax state guidelines against their better judgement. Why must these matters of general knowledge and common sense be spoon fed to Trumpette's?
 
Funny how the cult of dementia tends to forget that when he said that the cases were on a mostly flat line at the time. It was not until later that it began to sky rocket.
He had been told in late Jan.-early Feb. the cases would skyrocket if aggressive action wasn't taken. That's the whole fucking point.
 
Wow amazing how great 20/20 hindsight is. Just simply amazing.
Funny how you don't want to ding Pelozi fro walking hand in hand down the streets of Chinatown wanting others to come join her. Funny how you overlook New York City mayor riding on a subway saying it was safe. Then dropping the number of cars so more were packed in together. But can't blame them, they have a D.

Funny that you completely forget that Trump followed his medical advisors directions even to the social distancing.
But it is all him.

And just what have the democrats done during this crisis to help? Biden talked about Trump being xenophobic. Pelosi held up the CARES in an attempt to get more pork and green deals.
They are holding up the help for small business. In other words they have done nothing of any import.

It's amazing how you Trumpists have a mental (pardon the expression) block prohibiting you from remembering Trump saying cases were going down, not up, and would soon be very close to zero, after Pelosi's walk through Chinatown. Are you thinking Pelosi had inside info that Trump didn't? Or perhaps you expect her to act more rationally than he? Can't blame you there.

Not my fault that you can't hold your own party as accountable as you want to hold the other.

There were 59 cases on 2/27, and they were going up, when Trump said cases were going down. It was an incorrect, wrong, counter-factual statement. It's a fact the numbers weren't going down, Orange Judas's claim notwithstanding.

Did you think Pelosi had more info when she went to Chinatown than Trump did a couple of days later?
 
Here's reality Berg....Its not our fault your party leaders picked Quid Pro Joe as your candidate to run against Trump. No matter how many false, delusional purposely misleading studies you post Trump is going to win big in November. Joe is a worse choice than Hillary and it's your parties fault he will get crushed. Keep posting nonesense. if it helps you cope with this reality but it won't change reality.

No he doesn't because if he did he would have done that. Please quote that law that states this or retract and admit you made it up.

Is that why Pelosi went on national TV and encouraged people to go to China Town without PPE and do business as usual on Feb 24th?
 
Good boy, Sherman.

another trip in the wayback machine for you?

As is customary, you offer an opinion on the poster, rather than the post. You and jitt's, eh?

Yes, if Trump had taken the threat seriously from the beginning - rather than indulging in wishful thinking and his perceived self-interest in propping up the markets - American lives would likely have been saved. Is that too hard to acknowledge?
If Trump has issued a stay at home order on March 2 every Democrat in Congress would have attacked him.

Blaming what Pelosi did on what Trump was told? That doesn't follow. Positively Trumpian.

Ok let me dumb this down for you.

You people are blaming Trump for not taking action sooner. 3 weeks AFTER trump banned China travel Pelosi got in front of the nation and told them to ignore coronavirus and to go to Chinatown and do business as usual.

So if Trump didn't take it seriously neither did the speaker of the house. So either get the fuck off of Trumps back or attack Pelosi the same way.

Is that clearer, you fucking stupid liberal?

Get your head out of Trump's ass. It's giving you a shitty outlook, and obscuring the obvious.

Coming from someone who ignored Pelosi telling people to ignore covid19 almost in March?

He's merely pointing out that you're a lying moron who doesn't want to take responsibility for the douchebag politicians you support.

Mother of God.

 
The timing of social distancing can have an exponential effect on the death toll of the coronavirus, epidemiologists Britta L. Jewell and Nicholas P. Jewell recently wrote in The New York Times.

"The White House started issuing social-distancing guidelines on March 16, more than two weeks after the first COVID-19 related death. However, an estimated 90% percent of coronavirus deaths in the US could have possibly been avoided if social distancing began March 2, according to the two health experts.

Lockdowns and social distancing have become the new norm, but according to the experts, they are not the answer to fighting the coronavirus, instead, they are a tool to buy more time while treatments and vaccines are researched and developed.

While social-distancing measures aren't a cure for the disease, epidemiologists Britta and Nicholas Jewel said the timing of such measures can be the difference between life and death on a massive scale."

No one can say with certainty how many lives could have been saved if the Golfer-in-Chief had acted earlier. What we can say is instead of doing so he concentrated on protecting his chances of re-election (while playing golf and holding rallies) by prioritizing the short term economic impact of a shutdown over human lives. He waited too long to act.

Which is why so much time and effort is being expended by the Bigot-in-Chief and his media allies to distort the truth about his inaction. He waited too long to act.

Trumpette's have been conditioned to reflexively bring up Don's China travel restriction. The one that came 10 days after the CDC announced the first US case of the virus, a person who traveled here from China. The one delayed by Don's concern for not upsetting China shortly after a truce in the trade war had been announced. The one that did not include people traveling from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan. The one that did not include EU countries where a majority of cases in NY came from. The one that allowed nearly 40,000 people coming from China in to the country in the two months after Trump imposed restrictions. Importantly, screening proceedings of travelers from China have been uneven and inconsistent. That "travel ban." The one predicted to be ineffective.
“All of the evidence we have indicates that travel restrictions and quarantines directed at individual countries are unlikely to keep the virus out of our borders,” said Jennifer Nuzzo, associate professor and senior scholar at Johns Hopkins University’s Center for Health Security, at a congressional hearing Feb. 5."

Taking action far too late to be effective has caused the Trump admin to seek to deflect blame for the outbreak here.

They tried to get us to believe......at different times..........the fault for the botched response lies with China, Obama, Pelosi, the CDC, De Blasio, the WHO, the governors, because the Denier-in-Chief takes responsibility for nothing..........and credit for everything. There is a grain of truth in some of those accusations. But the bottom line is only one person had the information and the authority to make an informed decision that could have saved lives. He didn't. He failed in the first obligation of a POTUS, to keep US citizens safe. He waited too long to act.


Just to get ahead of the curve, Trumpleton responses to this thread will begin with Trump Denial Syndrome post # 173,408.
We get it. You hate Trump. He should have taken action in January......wait....

:laughing:

If the elitists and establishment did not attack Trump 24 hours a day, 7 days a week since his election you may be right. All of those smart Prog politicians must have missed this as they were going for the 250th impeachment on him.

Yes, I appreciate how he attempts to deflect away from the President. And your contribution is invaluable.

He doesn't have the power to force governors to relax state guidelines against their better judgement. Why must these matters of general knowledge and common sense be spoon fed to Trumpette's?

No he doesn't because if he did he would have done that. Please quote that law that states this or retract and admit you made it up.
