Trump banned travel to and from Iran earlier this year. A liberal judge stayed that order. From NYC IIRC. Iranians then brought COVID-19 to NYC. The media will not mention this, at all.

Anyon who says Trump has blood on his hands because of this virus needs to be smacked in the mouth, twice.

No doubt they are the same people who were calling him a Racist Xenophobe for stopping travel to/from China and other countries. THEY are the ones with blood on their hands.

Trump seriously needs to tell these judges to fuck off. They have no business legislating from the bench.

“Because that order was built upon lies and fascism!!! Racism!!!” Reeeee!

The problem is pretty simple:

1100 people in NY have been treated with Trump pills. That means almost 54,000 infected people in NY have been DENIED treatment with Trump pills. And New Yorkers have been fleeing and spreading it all through the Country.

Hoarding Trump pills helps beat this crisis how, Fredo?

I goofed! I thought everybody was calling the Governor Fredo because he's so hideously ugly

Nah, Fredo (Chris Cuomo) is the CNN news anchor. The governor is Fredo's more competent but still greedy and malicious brother Andrew. But, you know, there's no reason to suspect media bias or anything.

What the fuck does IROC mean in relation to Italians? The only IROC i've ever heard of is an IROC Z Camaro.

16 hospitals were closed over the last several years as Cuomo cut Medicaid.

I was just coming here to say that. The ER's have been a warzone long before this happened. Last October my grandmother spent 7 hours waiting to seen due to a fall.

Even in March people were still on public transit and going out. They didn’t close down the schools either. They weren’t practicing any social distancing. Bill DeAssio didn’t really act quickly.

They didn't even close their fucking SUBWAYS. What's wrong with people.

They didn't just not close their subways.

They got on TV and encouraged everyone to take the subway and go to crowded areas because if you don't, you're racist.

They reduced the number of trains running, which forced people into the overcrowded remaining trains.

And now Cuomo is floating the idea of moving downstate patients from NYC to Upstate NY hospitals, is he purposely trying to spread the virus? https://www.binghamtonhomepage.com/local-news-2/governor-cuomo-address-hospital-challenges-potential-of-moving-downstate-patients-upstate/

I hate how they're lumping in all Corona cases as if it's the same boat from New York to Atlanta to Little Rock, Oklahoma and Seattle. It fucking isn't. We're not "all in this together." Some of us didn't elect blue dimrods to fuck up our states.

The virus is in different stages in different areas. My SAFE county in Texas just went from 1 case to 4 and that's how it starts. As NYC gets over the hump, other hot spots develop which extend the process. It's never a problem until it hit's home.

LitteralyHitler42 2 points ago +2 / -0

Also when they show other countries compared to the U.S. they aren't doing it per capita. That's just outright lying. We are doing over 10 times better than Europe and have having our cases much later due to our travel bans

Directly comparing statistics is just going to lead to bickering because nobody collects statistics the same way. Garbage in, garbage out, even if the garbage chart looks really pretty.

South Korea seems to be the only place that has a proper lid on this and isn't either lying or ignoring it. How'd they do it? Closed borders, accurate testing, contact tracing, isolation of infected, medication, and not panicking. Why is SK dealing with it well? They've done this before.

Even Biden wouldn't say Trump "has blood on his hands" when goaded by that asshole Chuck Todd yesterday.

Many of the town-level local governments in NY State (in mostly red country) operate pretty well, but unfortunately they have little say over the crushing mandates that come from the dark blue urban sphincters. Source: I live here.

Let's compare the numbers per capita. For example, the US population (327M) is roughly equivalent to the populations of Germany, France, UK, Italy, Spain and Switzerland - COMBINED (329M).

Germany, France, UK, Italy, Spain and Switzerland account for

~322,000 cases and

~22,800 deaths

versus

~145,000 cases and

~2,500 deaths in the United States

as of 3/30/2020 9am EST.

So the US fares quite well comparatively to Europe per capita.

Trump already flattened the curve, but it doesn't mean it's over. It's still going up.

@OP: Looked at your title and saw that you misspelled "China Virus". "Wuhan Virus" or "China Virus from Wuhan" would also be acceptable.

NY has a population of 8.6 million and has 66.5k cases as of this post.

CA has a population of 39.5 million and has 6.3k cases as of this post.

Both have major ports of entry, both have major international airports.

Looking at numbers, how can anyone come to the conclusion that NY is Trump's fault and not a local issue?

This has absolutely nothing to do with Trump. Trump took all the right actions. These frickers cannot run their states and then want to blame Trump for not doing it for them.

This is what happens when you have single party rule in a state - and specifically when that single party is Democrat.

While I agree that the government of NY is broken in every way, it is by no means the reason it is sick. The converse is true: fixing the government won't fix NY. The problem, just like in every overpopulated large urban area, it's the people that choose to move in there. The people are broken; and they just happen to elect broken people as well. That really is the problem.

Cuomo established his death panels, refused the recommendation of more ventilators and even hid many in a warehouse until last week (and the executive order).

The blood is on democrat officials in the city/state

NYC has the highest population density of any large city in the US. Of course the WuFlu is going to spread like wildfire when people are stacked on top of each other.

Not only that, it has a gigantic immigrant Chinese population (including many illegal alien Chinese).

Even local government is a mess. The biggest city near me was a sanctuary city under the last couple of mayors; I'm not sure if that's still the case but it wouldn't surprise me. Our economy can't support all these people and never could. Out! Out! Out!

There are videos of the NYC mayor and health commissioner downplaying the Chinese virus as recent as 3 weeks ago.
