POLL: What Would You Have Trump Do About Covid-19?

[g5000]

I hear people grumbling that Trump is not being aggressive enough to fight this plague. So I was wondering just exactly what it is they believe he should be doing.

Yes, it was a colossal fuckup for Trump to disband the White House pandemic unit. Okay.

But what about going forward? What is he not doing that he should be doing?

Also, would you be okay with Trump forcing whole cities and towns into quarantine the way other countries are doing? I am very interested in hearing answers to this particular question.

Considering what wasn't done in 2009 when O was in office and we had 4000 deaths, what is trump to do? How many died when wilson was in office with the spanish flu? 675,000. This wasn't O's fault or trumps fault. Mass quarantining isn't the answer either. The people being seriously affected have underlying health conditions, smokers, diabetes, compromised immune systems.

Trump was highly critical and fearmongering like a motherfucker during the Ebola thing a few years ago. He has some karma coming back to bitch slap the shit out of him.

So you are satisfied with what Trump is doing, or should he be doing more?

I think they should be testing people who have underlying conditions, smokers, compromised immune systems who are coming in with fevers, coughing, etc.

You nuts have a president, that has gutted the science department, who want quick fixes to everything but how to not lie on a daily basis...what would we have him do? STEP THE FUCK ASIDE AND LET THE GROWNUPS HANDLE THIS....next stupid question

Trump is all about the dollars, the market, the man could give a rats fuck about anything concerning ppl. The best this horrible bastard can do, is step aside, which he can not do, and allow science and grown up handle this shit...but God forbid, the Trump allow anybody credit for solving shit besides himself.

Other countries are testing patients for coronavirus by the tens of thousands. Why the U.S. is so far behind

South Korean officials are setting up "drive-thru" coronavirus screening facilities. Manufacturers in China have the capacity to distribute more than 1.5 million tests a week. The countries, alongside Italy and the U.K., are testing tens of thousands of people for the coronavirus, in many cases processing thousands of samples a day.

In the U.S., meanwhile, inadequate coronavirus testing has become a full-blown scandal. As U.S. cases spike, the Department of Health and Human Services has launched an investigation into defective testing kits that delayed lab results by several days, and experts are worried that a slow federal response may have given the virus more time to spread.

<snip>

The coronavirus's emergence in Asia in December and January gave the U.S. weeks to prepare, but even in the early stages, diagnostic testing hit snags.

The CDC, a U.S. federal agency, opted to develop its own test kit rather than use the existing one recommended by the World Health Organization; it is not yet clear why. Early on, CDC sent 200 of its test kits to state labs across the country (each kit can test 700 to 800 samples), but in mid-February, the agency announced that some of the kits were flawed, and asked labs to send samples to the CDC's central lab in Atlanta to be tested, a move that delayed results by several days.

Stop saying stupid shit. As usual. Stop trying to downplay it.

Listen to your experts, at least those who remain, especially those who aren't sycophants.

Do what they tell you to fucking do.

That's about it. And stop saying stupid shit.

It may come down to quarantining cities. It's clear the Admin fumbled getting testing in order. WE can blame Trump for never in his entire entitled life accepting bad news that can be avoided or blamed on someone else, but it seems clear that Azar was the log jam, and not getting FDA involved was the fatal blow to getting the tests that possibly could have kept the virus isolated. As it is there are hundreds if not thousands of people with the virus walking around right now.

Azar in the crosshairs for delays in virus tests

Just saying we'll let the virus just infect the entire nation and pick up the bodies of the 2% or whatever who die is not going to get it done. And as the link indicates the admin has now given up on containing the virus to mitigating the effects

What we have is "Trump is doing better than Obama did with H1N1, so what the fuck are you whining about?" STFU already.

I am seriously interested in people's opinion about quarantining whole cities and towns. Please respond to that question. Thank you.

Sanctuary Cities should be quarantined and the streets cleared of Illegals and tent cities which should be burned to the ground. The Illegals should be deported immediately, and drug addicts should be housed in politician's homes which created the policies that are turning Sanctuary Cities in to 3rd world shit holes. And if they don't cooperate with The CDC and ICE, then you cut off their federal dollars.

Obama was a Mooslim Virus and Pox on America. He is a devil worshiper, and traitor to this country, and a hater of God, Christians and Israel, and a lover of death, and terrorists.

I don't think we go that route unless and until this thing is proven to be worse than the flu.

Clearly O'bama created this virus and timed it to undermine Rump. It's what he's been working on with his magic Telepromter since leaving office when he got done tappppppppping Rump's wires. Just like he engineered the whole 2008 economy collapse with his time machine retroactively to set up his own election.

I personally think it is too late for mass quarantine. It looks like the genie is out of the bottle. We allowed the period for containment to pass, thanks to the fuckup with test kits.
