His testimony doesn’t foster hope of skilled professionalism.

Then by all means you should worry. Or stay in Canada where it’s safe.

Canadian minster of public health has been giving almost daily reports on this since it started.
I’m very well informed on what is happening and the government action to deal with it.

does the CDC do similar thing in America.

Trump Has Sabotaged America’s Coronavirus Response

For the United States, the answers are especially worrying because the government has intentionally rendered itself incapable. In 2018, the Trump administration fired the government’s entire pandemic response chain of command, including the White House management infrastructure. In numerous phone calls and emails with key agencies across the U.S. government, the only consistent response I encountered was distressed confusion. If the United States still has a clear chain of command for pandemic response, the White House urgently needs to clarify what it is—not just for the public but for the government itself, which largely finds itself in the dark.

Nothing to worry about folks. Everything is fine. This is all normal.

This is something all first world nations routinely do. Leading by example. Again.

Indeed. While China builds massive hospitals in mere days, we are firing all experienced personnel that could competently handle an emergency like this. All totally normal behavior.

This is the dumbest, and possibly most dangerous, possible timeline.

It all seems quite self defeating in hindsight

I live in rural Canada i will be fine.

The CDC hasn’t even got a clue how many cases to expect.

Is there any particular reason the US should be carrying the bulk of the load for the WHO or are there perhaps some other developed countries out there that can pick up an even greater share?

Trump Has Sabotaged America’s Coronavirus Response

As it improvises its way through a public health crisis, the United States has never been less prepared for a pandemic.

You do understand that this is not an unbiased source. Right? They are politically opposed to the President? Therefore will disagree with nearly everything. I’m still not worried about Corona.

Good thing the GOP has been busy sabotaging Obamacare and replacing it with an affordable plan of their own.

So nothing in the article is accurate? Is that your claim? Trump didn’t dismantle the entire chain of command on pandemic responses? That never happened? Nothing to see here? The corona virus is just TDS?

[WildRose]

Well if that’s the case they certainly failed didn’t they?

No. My claim is that they want you to panic because they are never Trumpers. I see no reason to panic. But that’s just me.

[WildRose]

Well considering how spectacularly they’ve failed at doing so particularly in this case it seems to be one hell of a waste of money.

Discussing the realities of preparedness is not panicking. It is discussing the realities of preparedness. And there are facts and evidence to support the claims that we are not prepared as a result of direct action taken by Trump.

Using hyperbolic adjectives like “panicking” is only designed to deflect and misdirect from this discussion and the facts.

[WildRose]

It’s not our duty to carry the load for them and you know we don’t have an endless pool of money here.

Leading from behind is basically what Trumpism is. So makes sense this is what his supporters want.

Are you frustrated with us? I hope so!

No. I’ve come to understand. I watch, read, and pay attention. I analyze and apply logic and reason.

Yea we did a bang up job on that Aids thingy didn’t we?
