Thanks. That’s all I have heard as well, is regarding the test kits. Seems to be a lot of criticism of the handling of the entire situation if test kits is the only problem. Again, I wish someone would put out their numbers for infections and deaths if we would’ve had test kits earlier. And then subtract from that number the estimated lives saved by halting travel from China at a time when the WHO admonished the administration for making that decision

Not to worry; if Corona doesn't end up being as bad as these prognosticators suggest, they will be the first to come forward and walk back their critical comments of the handling of it all, and instead praise the President and everyone involved in making the difficult decisions surrounding this crisis. Right?? ****** Also, i'm curious, with all these experts being able to predict the future under the current administration's handling of the situation, what are their estimates for infections/deaths if someone else would have been running the country, relying on their set of experts to make the hard decisions? It should be just as easy to come up with those estimates. No deaths? March Madness in full swing next week? #9 hanging in the Ralph a month from now? Let's hear those estimates.

I think it depends largely on which media outlet employs your "expert."

Interesting article. I wish it would explain how things would be different if the proposed funding cuts and other actual cuts had never occurred. More test kits? Fewer travel or group bans? I see it was written Jan. 31st. It reads more like someone trying to Monday morning quarterback a crisis, before said crisis happens. I miss the swine flu. You know, those good old days when an epidemic could occur without half the country finger pointing, manufacturing outrage, and inducing panic by claiming those in charge aren't doing enough before the apocalyptic event even began.

LOL

What?

Thank you. Some people here prefer "truth over facts." I prefer both.

Yes. Like the one posted here from an MSNBC link, claiming Trump called the corona virus a hoax. Which is why I replied in the first place. enjoy your kool aid.

I heard if you like your health care plan, you can keep it.

I guess he should’ve said the stock market is probably headed towards zero, and anyone not severely weakened by the coronavirus should climb to the top of the nearest building and jump

So by stating facts, and pointing out the deliberate misleading misstatements by cnn and msnbc, I’m uniquely dumb? Very appropriate you chose to quote a science fiction writer

It’s sad that about half the country still believes outlets like msnbc and cnn. You would think after they lied everyday for 3 years about Russian collusion, people would get the hint of what their true agenda is. And now in the midst of a global pandemic, their main goal is not to inform and educate, but rather manipulate statements and data all in the goal of trashing everyone tasked with making the difficult decisions.

Soup’s not a meal.

Thinking I’ll stick to gullible bison fans....

Given the current level of hysteria, how much do you think I could get for 100 doses of this on eBay?

Locally, parents are already calling the school, inquiring about switching their kids to home schooling.

Good question. Also, now that all forms of entertainment have seemingly been cancelled, how many people who would've stayed home watching sports on tv, are now going to go out and about infecting and becoming infected, because they are bored out of their mind?

Yes. It's just called Break now. Go directly home and live out your last squares of toilet paper in panic behind closed doors.

Trump has possibly been exposed to corona. https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-met-brazilian-official-tested-151800039.html

If domestic flights aren't stopped, it makes me wonder if the ncaa and professional sports leagues decisions are more financial based than health recommendation based. How can we have hundreds of thousands of people still flying all over the country..... yet a gathering of under 200 people to have a hockey or basketball game is not allowed?

Exactly. Not only are they considering the financial impact of playing at empty arenas, they also have to consider getting sued by fans claiming they got sick in their arena. Or players that felt forced to play, and later contracted the virus.

Well, we are the social media of Siouxsports! That should get us in, right?!

No TP? I sure hope you’re constipated- no one has a square to spare!

I agree. Just was stating what’s probably going to happen... All we have to fear, is fear itse- oh, and corona.
