Kot of the European countries are considering suspending the season. Italy already has. The Olympic committee is talking about pushing the Olympics back a year or 2. Imo this is very smart move to help avoid the spreading. There will always be that 1 asshole who goes out while sick and risks everyone getting sick.
If you read the statements from the actual people in charge, they aren't trying to 'stop the spread' at all, they are just trying to slow it down because there is genuine fear their dilapidated socialist medical systems will collapse under any real pressure. See: Italy.
Here in America, yes it's political. Our medical system, as well as our emergency response capabilities, can handle it. In Europe, it's a panic because they don't have our vast resources. Socialist medical care really is a house of cards, and they really can't handle an outbreak scenario, and they want to be sure people are focused on the disease and not the house of cards.
Our media is capitalizing on that panic, the dems are trying hard to put something together that will hurt Trump, and our institutions are worried about losing money. Our president is working overtime to A. make sure the panic doesn't self fulfill, and B. I expect we'll be seeing the leverage soon.
You can say the hype is horseshit all you want, but reasonable people are aware that the economic and geopolitical ramifications are absolutely real, and the face of 2020 has already been irreparably changed.
They've made it political and so should we, because it's a glaring example of the absolute worst parts of socialist medicine. The complete inability to cope with actual problems.
