Take your pick.

A. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
B. Don’t panic, Chicken Little. The sky is not falling.

[dp0622]

A. Because it’s not panic. It’s the SMART thing to do.

I don’t think this thing is gonna explode in the states.

If we do the smart things.

Like this.

[An.American.Expatriate]

But isn’t that racist?

[LeoWindhorse]

Works for me. Kona has direct arrival Japan flights with zero monitoring or controls . Walk right in , masks and all.

[867V309]

Take your pick.

A. freak out; tank the market.
B. reject infectious persons at the border

[Mr Radical]

we can’t interupt the flights, not from anywhere. that might disrupt the nwo campaign to move ten thousand from the third world into the west every day.

[Steve Van Doorn]

South Korea we're at the highest level. Japan were at level two which is "Alert - Level 2, Practice Enhanced Precautions"

It does look like Japan should be raised now.

It should be:

Take your pick.

A. It’s the Apocalypse and we’re all gonna die get in your bunkers now!
B. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
C. Don’t panic, Chicken Little. The sky is not falling.

What I think we should do is to get more selective as to whom we allow in the country and build some sort of a barrier to keep people from entering our country w/o being checked out.

[nicepaco]

Don’t worry. USA is always gonna have low numbers because they
don’t test much. China controls their numbers in a similar way.
Hawaii will seem completely safe if they never test anyone.

Ok, wondering what to do. I have travel plans next month to fly from Houston, Texas to Bangkok, Thailand with the connecting airport at Narita, Japan. I have spent a lot of time in Thailand for almost thirty years. This trip is a reunion of friends, my girlfriend lives in Thailand and I have many friends living there and traveling to there for a huge get together over st. Patrick’s Day. None of of us are overly concerned about ontracting COVID-19. What troubles us is not knowing what may happen.
What happens if after we arrive in Thailand a travel ban is put in place and we can’t return to our home countries. Anybody, thoughts or advice???

[Helicondelta]

“from South Korea and Japan”

Yep, punish the countries testing people and not lying about the number of infected. /s

[sockmonkey]

Tulsi is the only sane Democrat in my book. Sorry she is hated by the perpetual war machine on both sides of the aisle.

She has been talking about Covid-19 from the get go, but has been totally ignored. Heck, Mexico has run more tests than the US has. We are not being proactive

[Raycpa]

Wouldn’t people just take indirect flights?

[dakine]

You have to quarantine your pet when moving to Hawaii...

[ballplayer]

Hey Tulsi the President has the situation in control thank you very much

[EasySt]

"Take your pick."

A. "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure."
B. "Don’t panic, Chicken Little. The sky is not falling."

I'll take a little of A, and a little of B while I wait
to see if the hardest hit when the smoke clears, turn
out "coincidentally" to be the Protesters and the Christians.

We've got our masks and gloves and wipes already,
and various backup means to achieve clean water.
I did add a couple cases of Spam to the pantry, and
some other canned meats, and filled the vehicle gas tanks.

I still have to service some of our room and house air
filters. I'm kind of overkill with ionic, electrostatic,
HEPA air filters, to keep Dad breathing easy. Those can't
hurt to help keep any viral load low... And there's real
soap by all the sinks, which gets stuff the sanitizers miss.

We're always prepped to bug in for a couple months.
For the current threat, I've also restocked medicine
cabinets and tossed the old stuff.

Dad suspects I bought too much toilet paper...
I'll make up for it by getting more paper towels... ;-)

I'll add to my liquor cabinet and other preps to do my
part to keep the economy going, until we choose to bug in,
and keep visitors on the other side of the video doorbell. ;-)

Tulsi suddenly wants to build a wall.

[null and void]

Trying to out Trump Trump?

Good luck with that...

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.

[ncalburt]

She is right .
Stop these flights and All Chinese flights too l
Yes we still allow flights from China .
Its insane to still allow this .
Trump WH better stop all of these Potential Flights risks .
What is WH waiting for ?....
The time to act is now.

[Bonemaker]

Should block flights from Hawaii to the US to keep Gabbard and Hirono the hell out.
