How Trump has handled the pandemic

Why do we keep discussing what was done or missed in the month of the January?
Any immediate benefit coming out of it instead of muddying the issue at hand.
I am all for a national apology from the Trump if that is a desired outcome of such discussions.

Is our gov did not do enough in the beginning? yes, trying to BS and calm the public yes?
did state and federal realize and change and act quickly after esclated ? yes
I think both pres, democrat, republican and private company did a decent job , if you look at all country in the world right now. we are not so bad. The only one did great is taiwan
HK gov is completely F UP. it’s all on indiviidual, take them how many months to get the 10k, till july before i can get mine
i think here some ppl will get first check early april.
many prviate business tell ppl wfh like 2.5 weeks ago
Before shelter in place took place, gov did gave enough signal to give hint to us to stock up. and gave enough time for ppl to buy stuff before enacting
that stimulus is a MUST and they all act fast
newsome i don’t like him back in sf days, but i think he did a decent job

let’s get rid of all political stuff and work together, so WEAR YOUR MASKS

It is too early to come to conclusion. How soon you want to mobilize your defense depends upon your understanding of the threat. Could have defense measures taken earlier. Possibly. Did that delay result in significant loss. Does not look like.

When did you know we have a pandemic? I knew back in late December. Everyone in China, Taiwan and HK knew by mid January.

Is CIA still functioning? Do they have anyone who reads Chinese? Well even English is fine as HK media already reported it widely by January. I find it highly unlikely American intelligence somehow missed something everybody in East Asia knew since early January.

If so disband CIA as well.

Hindsight is 20/20. I can forcast all past events to 100% accuracy.

非洲豬瘟 is way bigger issue in december, I’m in Hong Kong during that time, hiding in the house preventing tear gas from POPO
the sars first leak out in december, but not serious at all, they downplay it, then in january got big.
But what did the world’s biggest health and trustable source say. Transmission is low. outbreak is low, won’t human to human transmit.

Tell me a country who did not follow WHO, every fxxking country did except for china’s biggest enemy TAIWAN, and what did S.Korea did, when have this thing out, free ship masks and equipment to china, then when they get it

Western country fell in LOVE WITH RMB. and WHO IS PAID BY CHINA. give out BS number.
非洲豬瘟 is huge too, any country act on it? and result of spreading out, not much right?

when trump block china flight to US, i was complaining we should block ALL. and what all my liberal friend say at that time, you can’t do that, that is stupid, when i tell ppl wear mask, you don’t need it, you are dumb fxxk.

ONLY PPL have family went through SARS knows this SHIT Is real deal. people/country never dealt with this have no IDEA
it’s the perfect wake up call

WHO advised against stopping flights. How come we didn’t follow WHO? It’s as if we are making our own independent decisions…

:thinking:

WHO advice my ass, They protect china, they got paid by that fucked up country , remember italy try to banned china traveler, then china complaint?

what all say back in early jan
travel banned will do more harm than good.
I keep telling people we should banned all and i got fucked at every single time, say what, i’m racist against my own race.

it’s easy to blame, you hate him is alright
look at ALLLLLLLLL country in this world, how they act.

US banned flights from China after WHO declared public health emergency.

I think Screamer-in-Chief knows that WHO is corrupted, but he likes to blame Trump more than China/WHO. No matter what everything here is a blame game; nobody can say they are not finger pointing. Regardless, the worst one is the culprit IMO.

You forgot to say can get free masks from you :wink: How to wear one if don’t have and nowhere sell?

i tell my nextdoor neighbors how to make your own mask
i think i post video here before, you probably missed it

i think my advertising on masks is working in my neighborhood, i see more and more wearing everyday haha

yup, i’m ready to get fired.

You mean you guys? I was talking about you guys who seemed to be standing on “higher ground” saying people are finger pointing at China/WHO :thinking:

If you don’t know my interpretation yet you have more homework to do.

I thought you mean yourself :stuck_out_tongue:

:crazy_face:

Obviously I am 明知故问 :face_with_head_bandage:

Ok man every East Asian knew including all East Asians on real estate forums which includes former hardware and software engineers who have zero understanding of epidemiology except WHO, and all relevant world’s topmost experts in epidemiology and communicable diseases in Europe and USA and non East Asians around the world.

You will have to agree this was a very funny comment.

Personally I don’t see anything wrong with the blame game. Agree that it’s not the top priority now under this crisis but there needs to be accountability at the end to set things right. If a drunkard ran someone over first thing you do is make sure the victim is okay then you go after the driver (if both can’t be done simultaneously).

Btw, this Bay Area forum will have zero influence whether Trump is reelected or not, so let’s deal with facts. Let’s not not peddle standup comedy.

I thought I clearly stated China was not without blame. Seems Trump fans are saying Trump has been perfect and it’s all China’s fault we are in current situation?

Of course I know WHO is heavily influenced by Chinese money. I thought everybody knew?

We have CDC for a reason. We have never outsourced our public health policy to WHO. Heck, we even insisted on making our test kits and not use the WHO ones, which are used by over 60 countries. US has its first case in January. Do we need WHO to tell us whether it can be transmitted person to person?

What other policies are outsourced? Do we decide who to bomb or do we take orders from UN? Does the Fed set rates or is it the World Bank?

We have the world’s largest and most sophisticated intelligence network. We should have picked up an epidemic is going on in Wuhan earlier than it became public knowledge. And I bet we did pick that up. But higher up officials chose to ignore it. Do I have to replay all those Trump tweets saying it’s just a flu? There are still people on here insisting it’s just a flu.

Talk vs action. Look at what our gov did vs what they say. Compare to other countries we did a lot in short period of time. Could we do more. Absolutely especially cdc failed part. If we did more in early stage will our gov get f at . Absolutely will too
