You fucking KNOW it's going to happen too. As soon as the country opens back up and people return to work, every single person who dies of ChinaFlu (and they'll continue attributing unrelated deaths to it just to make sure) will be used by Democrats to say Trump "has blood on his hands"...even though plenty of people continue getting sick and dying even with the entire country ground to a halt.
Because at some point in the last week or two the goalposts were moved from "we need to reduce the rate of infection to ensure hospitals don't become overwhelmed" to "we need to lock everyone in their homes until there are 0 new infections." The former means that as long as hospitals aren't getting overwhelmed there's no reason not to re-open the country. The latter means that we can never re-open the country because even a single new infection will be "a death that didn't have to happen REEEEEEEEEEEEE!"
"we need to reduce the rate of infection to ensure hospitals don't become overwhelmed"
This is the point Trump's new task force needs to make and drive it hard. The virus HAS NOT overwhelmed the medical system. Even NYC has been able to cope and will be able to continue. Move the goalposts back to the original theme.
CUE THE: He's killlllling people REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Too bad I died from the Paris Accord withdrawal, my family didn't make it past Net Neutrality, and Kavanaugh hearings nuked the stratosphere.
Net Neutrality. My life was so complete too.

Would help a lot if Bill Gates didn't own the CDC. He still needs to fire a whole LOT of people.

Yup, it hasn’t even come close to overwhelming our medical systems.
The U.S. has handled this epidemic wonderfully.
But muh SiNgLe PaYeR!
