Reported: Trump To Declare COVID-19 A Stafford Act National Emergency

Breaking: Trump to declare COVID-19 a Stafford Act national emergency

President Donald Trump plans to declare a national emergency on Friday over the coronavirus outbreak, invoking the Stafford Act to open the door to more federal aid for states and municipalities, according to two people familiar with the matter. …

An emergency declaration would allow a state to request a 75% federal cost-share for expenses that include emergency workers, medical tests, medical supplies, vaccinations, security for medical facilities, and more, according to a letter Democrats sent the president earlier this week.

Only a few emergency declarations for public health threats have been made since the 1960s, and only two have targeted disease outbreaks, when President Bill Clinton in 2000 declared emergencies in New York and New Jersey in response to the West Nile Virus.

If people wanted the big guns, they are about to get them. This will probably hurt the markets even more, so good idea to do it on a Friday and let the weekend act as a firebreak.
That was 960 US deaths sooner than Obama did in 2009 with his declaration for H1N1. So I guess Trump will be criticized for doing too much, too soon.
Could I please have a link where you are getting this information, since the CDC reports that he first declared a public health emergency when there were 20 cases and no deaths?
Obama’s acting director of health and human services declared H1N1 a public health emergency on April 26, 2009. That was when the United States had only 20 confirmed cases of H1N1 and no deaths.

Two days later, the administration made an initial funding request for H1N1 to Congress. Eventually $7.65 billion was allocated for a vaccine and other measures.

I put the data up there in the last few pages.
You are reading the same info I am, but omitting the part where only 20 cases and 0 deaths were reported in the US at the time. The latest I heard, we have close to 2,000 confirmed cases in the US and have had 40+ deaths.

I don't know how you can call that responding much more quickly.

We still can’t get tested. But please keep pretending he isn’t incompetent.

you can’t gut the resources to deal with these issues like the orange psychopath did and then pretend you’re suddenly doing anything after the fact.

But Donald’s hacks don’t care.

please tell us why mitcipoo sent the senate home instead of passing the bill that was actually needed.

Which is much smaller than Europe which became the center of the storm..........We didn't get hit hard up front like they did.........and the numbers you just posted are small in comparison..........

Now, the ones coming in appeared to spread from Europe.....Not China.......because they didn't take controversial actions early on.

Travel Ban early kept our numbers down.........now that it's here........exponential growth is probably going to happen.

But what? I thought it was a hoax?

He. Never. Said. It. Was. A. Hoax.

He. Was. Talking. About. Democrat. Response. To. The. Situation.

Stop. Lying.
But declaring something a national emergency is sort of a huge over-reaction ain't it?

It's like totally overhyping it to declare it a national emergency -- its almost like he is substantiating what the evil Dems had been saying....

It's reacting to the situation as it develops, look at what NYC is doing now.

Marty, your quote doesn't mention Obama's issuing two emergency declarations about the Swine Flu in April and October 2009.

I quoted from wikipedia. Were Obama's declarations Stafford Act declarations?
 
Only in the mind of TDS addled morons did he completely "bleeped up" his address Wednesday.
Uh, no. His speech was a disaster and was widely panned by all but the most die-hard Trump supporters.

Panned by everyone in your wibble TDS circle jerk.

Gandalf ^ should shove that cane up his butt repeatedly until he understands how badly Dear Leader fucked us ALL.

It must make you feel all warm and fuzzy to have something like this to bitch about and in your mind help you get rid of Trump in November.

It's nothing more than politics for you.

Sorry, but a working group made up of people already doing other government jobs isn't a "resource"

Testing shouldn't be done on everyone, because even if you pass a test now, you can become infected 10 seconds later.

The current relief package is a long term package, passing it today instead of yesterday doesn't change the response, which is currently being done at the State level using existing State infrastructure.
 
But it's such a conspiracy and yall ust don't want to listen because omg alex jones told you omg the socitey leeches who worry what society thinks of them rather than standing up for truth the go along wussies. WHo go along to get along. Speak up if you know this bs is this or that.

YOU BIG BABY POS LOSERS MSM.

Obama’s acting director of health and human services declared H1N1 a public health emergency on April 26, 2009. That was when the United States had only 20 confirmed cases of H1N1 and no deaths.

I got it from October 24, 2009 / 12:01 PM / CBS/AP:

Obama Declares National Emergency for H1N1

President Barack Obama declared the swine flu outbreak a national emergency, giving his health chief the power to let hospitals move emergency rooms offsite to speed treatment and protect noninfected patients.

Health authorities say more than 1,000 people in the United States, including almost 100 children, have died from the flu, known as H1N1, and 46 states have widespread flu activity.

"Many millions" of Americans have had swine flu so far, according to an estimate that CDC Director Dr. Thomas Frieden gave Friday. The government doesn't test everyone to confirm swine flu so it doesn't have an exact count. He also said there have been more than 20,000 hospitalizations.
 
Sorry, but a working group made up of people already doing other government jobs isn't a "resource"

Testing shouldn't be done on everyone, because even if you pass a test now, you can become infected 10 seconds later.
Agreed. Testing everyone just for the sake of testing seems not to be very effective. Test the people who have active symptoms for the virus, and then maybe test the people who live with that person, or people the person is in close contact with.


Don't waste 400 test kits to test the entire city of Rudd, Iowa, if there aren't any known case anywhere near the town
