Coronavirus outbreak in Italy spurs State Department warning for Americans not to travel to 2 regions
Fox News ^ | 3/1/2020 | Travis Fedschun

The worst outbreak of coronavirus in Europe has spurred the U.S. government to issue the highest level of warning Sunday to the two Italian regions hardest hit by the virus.

The State Department updated its travel advisory to its highest level -- Level 4 -- urging Americans, "Do Not Travel" to the Lombard and Veneto regions in northern Italy.

The travel advisory cited quarantines set up in 10 Lombard towns and one in Veneto, with a combined population of 50,000 people, as well as "the level of community transmission of the virus"

Sunday's message comes after an earlier warning late Friday to avoid non-essential travel to all of Italy, where more than 1,570 cases were confirmed through Sunday along with 34 deaths.

And their healthcare s already overrun:

“The hospitals in Lombardy facing the coronavirus emergency are “on the edge of the estate”, meanwhile says Professor Massimo Galli, infectious disease specialist at the Sacco hospital in Milan, during a press conference at the Lombardy Region headquarters. “Most of the beds in the intensive care units are occupied by this disease - he adds - some hospitals are in serious crisis, such as Lodi and Cremona, where we are experiencing an overload of patients”

Theory: Rosenstein’s wife works for CDC, right? They hate PDJT. Dr Lieber of Harvard got paid by Chinese...CIA and government agencies want PDJT gone, as do the ChiComs. That guy in Washington state died, and no theory how he got virus. I predict more will not have a traceable route. What if CIA and deep state is using the willing CDC bad eggs to spread the virus. Maybe they know how to stop it but want to bring Doan PDJT first...or at least try to.

Why is that too far-fetched?

Rosenstein’s sister is an MD who works for the CDC. His wife is a lawyer for the National Institutes of Health.

“My advice to everyone is don’t travel if you can help it and stay way from large getherings.”

I had said a month back that if everyone in the world could just stay put where they were for a month, it would bring the cases down to a tiny trickle internationally. Hard to get an entire world to listen up, tho!

As soon as those new kits arrive through the mail and are up and testing, we will start to get a handle of the real numbers we’re dealing with.

Trust me, if the CIA and it’s ilk wanted to take Trump out of the picture, they have ways to do it that doesn’t have much of the world’s populace being involved to pull it off. They’ve had a LOT of experience in that area.

Or Europe in general.

Back down to 2% mortality, mostly elderly. The rate was a little higher but is dropping as they discover more cases. The quarantines have only been in place about a week so they have yet to see if it has spread from that area.

that’s not what i heard at all ... what i heard was that the CIA and CDC were deliberately spreading ebola in africa by contaminating “vaccine” injections with ebola virus and that the people there should stop getting “vaccinations” and go to their local witch doctors when they got sick instead of accepting help from western doctors ...
