Summer of Life in TAIWAN, Summer of Death in the United States!
The scale of Trump's failure to protect the United States can be accurately seen in the comparison of deaths and infections from coronavirus between TAIWAN and the United States from the period of June 1, 2020 to September 1, 2020.
TAIWAN POPULATION: 23,603,049
United States POPULATION: 332,639,102
Deaths from coronavirus, from June 1, 2020 to September 1, 2020:
TAIWAN: 0
United States: 82,716
Infections from coronavirus, from June 1, 2020 to September 1, 2020:
TAIWAN: 46
United States: 4,429,547
On a per capita basis, for the United States to have done as well as TAIWAN over the summer, the United States would of needed to have less than 900 infections and less than 15 deaths.
Are you dead yet?
Are you a mindless troll?
The SCIENCE tells you that LESS than 2% of infections are fatal. The SCIENCE tells you that the vast mjority who die have 1 or more critical underlying conditions It's NOT the big bad bogeyman that Prog trolls like keep screaming it is.
That is one in 50 people dead for a highly transmissible disease. Deaths from seasonal flu are less than 1 in a thousand.
Finally, 33% of everyone that gets infected with this virus are left with long term symptoms that could last the rest of their lives and shorten their life expectancy.
310,000 Americans are dead now from a virus that killed its first American 9 months and 13 days ago. The United States is now losing about 3,000 people a day from the virus.
Meanwhile in Taiwan, no one has died from the Virus in over 7 months! NO ONE! For people living in TAIWAN, everything is open. Bars, Clubs, Concerts, sporting events, school, life is NORMAL!
The U.S. response to this virus is the example of what not to do, while the TAIWAN response is the gold standard for what to do. TAIWAN did nearly everything right, while the United States did nearly everything wrong.
The results of who died and who didn't in each country are the proof of who was right and who was wrong.
Less than 2% mortality. Take your mask and well.......you get the picture.
I dont think the experience of Taiwan is practical in the USIs the method Taiwan used and makes sense to be done during a dangerous global pandemic. Had the United States done what Taiwan did, less than 200 Americans would have died from covid-19.
of course you are posting nonsense
Hawaii tried that and it lasted about one week
do you see biden doing anything close to that?
Biden can't do anything yet. We'll see what the situation is on January 20, 2020. The most important thing TAIWAN did is what they did in the first few days after January 20, 2020 when they blocked travel and quarantined anyone they let in for 14 days. You have to ACT EARLY to prevent the virus from penetrating the country's population and creating "community spread". The United States has had community spread for 9 months now with 300,000 dying because of it. TAIWAN never had community spread, which is why their system works and makes sense.
Again, the Federal Government has the authority to shut down travel into the United States from any place around the world. Unfortunately, that would not do much now since the virus has already spread too widely through the U.S. population. Had the United States did what TAIWAN did back in January of 2020, the United States would be like TAIWAN and not in this mess and 300,000 more Americans would still be alive.
Unfortunately its too late to do that and the United States is the largest spreader of the VIRUS on the planet. BIDEN's only options by the time he gets in will be to continue Vaccine distribution, increase testing, increase production of PPE and encourage more use of PPE by all American citizens.
I just looked at a map of Taiwan and you're an idiot.the people in taiwan cooperate with the govt much more than those in this country......yea i know i was shocked too....Summer of Life in TAIWAN, Summer of Death in the United States!

Yes, Taiwan is a homogeneous society where people share common cultural values.
The United States is not.
Furthermore, Taiwan is a small island that can control who enters. We cannot (obviously!).
And the Taiwanese government can give orders to the whole nation.
The United States is a bunch of semi-independent states that can and do tell the federal government to go to Hades. Our governors are little dictators.
There is no comparison between the two nations.
The United States can control who enters the country. Most people enter the country through air travel, the same way they enter Taiwan. Most people who cross the land border with Canada or Mexico cross at specific checkpoints where travel can easily be stopped. The United States is not much different from Taiwan except that it is lot farther away from where the infection started in China. John Hopkins University predicted that Taiwan, because of its proximity to China, its extensive trade and travel links with China, would suffer the worse effects of the pandemic of any country in the world.
Taiwan proved that proper government policy in quarantining the country from the outside world could succeed in protecting its citizens from the pandemic. The United States could have done what Taiwan did. The United States is wealthier and has the 2nd largest military on the planet. All it would have taken is proper government planning to implement and do what TAIWAN did. Any disadvantages the United States had by having a land border with Mexico or Canada could easily be covered by the Military.
But lets be clear, the virus came to the United States primarily through AIR TRAVEL. There was little to no spread caused by people crossing the Canadian or Mexican border on foot, in a car or on a train. Even if it was a significant threat, the means to block it, and seal those entry points are there. And no, someone crossing the desert on foot from Mexico to Arizona is not going to be major means of transmitting the virus.

They have only 1 international airport and that makes a big differenceTAIWAN is a country of 25 million people. that is not small. It is larger the biggest states in the United States with the exception of California. Whether TAIWAN has 1 or 20 international airports makes no difference.

TAIWAN is 90 miles from China. The United States is nearly 5,000 miles from China.
when people in this country dont listen to biden are you going to say that he has failed to lead?...I dont think the experience of Taiwan is practical in the USIs the method Taiwan used and makes sense to be done during a dangerous global pandemic.

TAIWAN is a country of 25 million people. that is not small. It is larger the biggest states in the United States with the exception of California. Whether TAIWAN has 1 or 20 international airports makes no difference. The United States has the ability to ban or quarantine all travel from international airports, sea ports, and border crossings. The banning part is the easiest. How many people you let in through quarantine methods of 14 days isolation is where more resources would come into play. But you can adjust that level based on what you have available for the job.
The only issue the United States has that TAIWAN does not is the person illegally walking across the border in a remote area or driving across the border in a remote area. Those numbers though when they happen are TINY, unlikely to be enough to contribute to community spread, if these people were infected, and could be easily controlled through testing and contact tracing.
The lawlessness that the United States has is irrelevant to situation if you do what TAIWAN did to prevent the virus from penetrating into the country. The United States given its achievements in World War II, the Cold War, Space Race, is the country that has the best resources and knowledge to handle a problem of the magnitude.
But the United States can't exercise that capability when the President fails to lead.
We need to begin giving all voters mandatory lessons in Liberish so we can know what biden is telling us to dowhen people in this country dont listen to biden are you going to say that he has failed to lead?...
biden is just another politician who will have lots of people giving him a hard time for his bullshit....We need to begin giving all voters mandatory lessons in Liberish so we can know what biden is telling us to dowhen people in this country dont listen to biden are you going to say that he has failed to lead?...

25 million people is a small number compared to the United States
and in territory you could ride a motorbike from end to end of the island in half a day
so the logistics of locking down America the way they did Taiwan are formidable
besides, as you say its far too late to quarantine visitors for two weeks now when the chinese bug is everywhere already
Are you kidding?Whether its 4 or 149, the process of lock down and quarantine is rather simple and well within the means of the United States security apparatus.
Ar

the Deep State was far too busy trying to depose trump to bother with enforcing 14 day quranteens
Four international airports huh?
I learned something
but its still a very small country
and it is an independent country and not part of mainland china
I'm shocked your just finding out that TAIWAN is an independent country. Of course it is.
Its been independent of China for over 71 years now.

not quite
Taiwan until very recently was ruled by the KMT, founded by Sun Yat-sen , and claimed to be sole legitimate government of all of china and has since 1912
but in the early 1970s the UN and US recognized communist china as the ruling party of mainland china
and red china claimed taiwan
it can be very confusing to Americans with only a slight knowledge of history
as of today the KMT is no longer the ruling party in Taiwan
the current government has not yet formally declared independence
but I think it will someday
the claims of the two governments does matterTaiwan and China have been separate independent countries since 1949. It does not matter about one countries claims on the other, or their specific definition from a particular time period, or which countries have formally recognized either one.
You think the military should have patrolled our entire northern and southern borders to keep people out? Gee, just think if we had a viable border wall between us and Mexico! That might actually be feasible!the people in taiwan cooperate with the govt much more than those in this country......yea i know i was shocked too....Summer of Life in TAIWAN, Summer of Death in the United States!

Taiwan was kicked out of the UN and communist china given their seat
until recently taiwan claimed authority over all of china
but the current popularly elected government ran on a platform of independence from china
they have not declared independence yet and if they do china is threatening war
and its a serious threat
Oh, bullshit! Islands like Taiwan, New Zealand and Australia were able to limit Covid by closing down travel there. You can do that when you're an island! You CAN'T do that when you have borders like the US does or most of Europe does! How many people does it take to start a pandemic? One infected person in a large group setting? They infect dozens of others. Those dozens infect dozens more. Do you have any clue how much traffic goes across our Southern and Northern borders on any given day in normal times? Do you have any clue what a shut down of that traffic would do to our economy as well as our neighbors?You think the military should have patrolled our entire northern and southern borders to keep people out?

Actually, I don't think that would be necessary. Overwhelmingly, most travel is through major border crossing areas that well staffed with border patrol agents. Only a tiny number of people enter the country by walking across the border in a remote area. Not in numbers that would be enough to spread a virus in a rapid uncontrollable manner. The United States has what it needs to block travel at its international airports, sea ports, and land crossings. Its just a matter of security being given the instructions and orders to block travel or quarantine individuals in isolated locations who are let in. All they needed was Trump to follow the TAIWAN model, and we be living in a different world right now in the United States without 340,000 people dead from Covid-19.
