CDC Director: "Europe Is The New China."
CNN ^ | March 13, 2020

Dr. Robert Redfield, director of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said cases in 30 or more states were linked to cases in Europe.

During a House Oversight Committee hearing Thursday discussing the coronavirus response, Redfield said the "real risk in general right now, and this is why the President took the action he did last night, within the world now, over 70% of the new cases are linked to Europe. In the United States … 30 states or more were linked actually to cases in Europe."

Redfield reiterated, “Europe is the new China.”

Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said as the CDC recently investigated the 35 states that were reporting cases, 30 of them “who were more recently getting infections ... That was predominately from Italy and from France and from Germany.”

Yes. Should have shut down travel from there sooner.

But there still are not nearly as many cases there as China.

Did they ever determine or report who brought the disease to the nursing home?

Donald Trump secretly injected each of the senior citizens personally.
Just like Reagan did with AIDS.

Both cases in MO are from visiting Europe.
One returned from Italy, the other Austria (which probably spread from Italy).

I wish Fauci got a degree in economics. He may save the health system. But he is killing the economy and our civil rights.

If I were sick in Italy, I would hop the first plane to NYC. They are out of ventilators in Italy, and patients who could be saved with proper care are dying in the hospital hallways

I would much rather be in New York, where I can beat the rush.

If he eventually says the US is the new Europe, I say we string him up.
