We knew exactly what SK knew. SK aggressively tested and traced and quaritned while we pretended it would just disappear.

You’re losing the plot. Is personal all you have left?

Are you a doctor?

not possible.

And still have cases and deaths.

No it isn’t.

Complete BS nobody ever pretended it was just going to disappear.

We did not have the manufacturing capability to produce millions of tests in January it did not exist in the United States.

Accept reality for a change.

Did you even see what I responded to?

No one is suggesting we could have cut it off.

How did SK do it? How did they get the tests together?

Also, trump said he always knew it was a pandemic.

Yes, you did it to me too. You’re supposed to be better.

They didn’t until they did. Like us. I guess we could have taken their tests away from them.

Why am the only one that’s suppose to be better?

It doesn’t matter what Trump says he knew he didn’t have the genetic code or any genetic material to sample from to produce a test.

South Korea because of their neighbor to the north who has the largest biological weapons stockpile in the world has greater manufacturing capability, and they do not have a huge bureaucracy to get in the way of an emergency.

There wasn’t even a pandemic declared for more than a month after we started testing and we started working on the test in early December before we even had the complete genetic code.

They were able to start producing a test as soon as they knew it was a coronavirus of a type but they could not complete it until they had the complete genome.

40,000/2,000= 20.

You’re a lib. He’s a deplorable rube.

That would be one hell of a fight, the rocks are pretty damn tough

Why do either of us need either of those labels? Why can’t we just be 2 Americans held to the same standard discussing politics?

Oh yippee for you it was almost two semi loads.

It wasn’t from our national strategic stockpile, it was donations from private organizations.

What an odd reaction to someone pointing out your math is wrong.

I admit it I’m tired and I was thinking gross weight of the truck which is 84000 pounds 80,000 pounds without an overload permit.
