As usual the US CDC is a full month behind the curve.

NOW is the time to close all US Ports of entry for all non-citizen travelers, with a mandatory quarantine for citizens seeking entry.

It's the only way to contain this virus.

Otherwise most in country will learn first hand whether it is a dangerous threat.

Now the compost chimes in. Get a grip and stop being so gullible.

Obviously we’re all gonna die. Hopefully no sooner than the average age of 78. This is getting outa hand.

VERY curious how IRAN of all places has so many infected and dead. Were they working with China on an engineered virus?

So true. I'm prepped up to the best of my ability & now I'm storing additional food for the kids & g'kids. I told them to take this serious a two weeks ago and they laughed at me. Oh well.

I don’t think they are a month behind the curve.

I think they have been way ahead of the curve. Just not with us.

For a second, can you imagine NYC being told this thing is coming. It would be madness. It would make the looting in NOLA during Katrina look tame.

No...they are going to do their best Baghdad Bob imitation.

Stop all international flights. Do teleconferencing instead. Or Skype. As an added benefit, those birth tourism flights will stop too.

It’s too late to close the ports. It’s in the country as much as it will be.

I have — yet another — dumb question:

Where are the cases in India, Africa and South America?

Surely by now the Wuhan Flu has spread to there as well?

Only a month behind is fast for a bureaucracy!

Bring Out Your Dead

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

So far the false positive rate is 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

If a quarantine saves just one child's life, it's worth it.

Of course it's inevitable. The only question is how extensive it will be. One of the problems with this virus is that it doesn't cause a full-blown clinical syndrome until you've been out and about - and able to transmit it.

God is in control. The virus can disappear into thin air if He so chooses. Or become something less fatal. So whatever happens, I pray He orchestrates what is best. I pray His mercy over every life in the path of the virus (especially my loved ones in Asia right now!) And His jurisdiction over every human government thinking themselves to be wiser than He is.

(I am praying for the ultimate downfall of China’s regime in particular and whatever corruptions in the WHO and elsewhere to come into light and dispelled.)

Health officials in the United States warned Tuesday that the spread of the novel coronavirus in the country appears inevitable,

Then maybe they lose their fat, high paying jobs if it's already inevitable. If it's already inevitable, what's their purpose?

I am now waiting for something like the following...

Trump Planned COVID-19 for 2020 Election!

Since large metropolitan cities, which are Democratic strongholds, are most vulnerable to infectious diseases, President Trump secretly sent agents from the NRA, to begin the outbreak in China.

I would not be surprised if the DNC puppets in the 'Fake News' media would put this out.

Average deaths due to lightening strikes in the US per year 51

Deaths due to Coronavirus in the US - ZERO

so... you people running around in a total panic have a 50 times greater chance of being killed by lightening!

ROFL
