Trump's entire two months of denial and foot dragging concerning this pandemic, when he could and should have acted with urgency to prevent this disaster.
Okay troll, where in this timeline would you have stepped in taking action.?
December 31, 2019 - Cases of pneumonia detected in Wuhan, China, are first reported to the WHO. During this reported period, the virus is unknown. The cases occur between December 12 and December 29, according to Wuhan Municipal Health.
New Year's Day? Or New Year's Eve?
January 1, 2020 - Chinese health authorities close the Huanan Seafood Wholesale Market after it is discovered that wild animals sold there may be the source of the virus.
How about then? Would have banned the sale of seafood in America?
January 5, 2020 - China announces that the unknown pneumonia cases in Wuhan are not SARS or MERS. In a statement, the Wuhan Municipal Health Commission says a retrospective probe into the outbreak has been initiated.
Okay so the people on site don't know what it is or how it started. What then? Four days out and I think Mr. Trump actually sent some people over there to help.
January 7, 2020 - Chinese authorities confirm that they have identified the virus as a novel coronavirus, initially named 2019-nCoV by the WHO.
January 11, 2020 - The Wuhan Municipal Health Commission announces the first death caused by the coronavirus. A 61-year-old man, exposed to the virus at the seafood market, died on January 9 after respiratory failure caused by severe pneumonia.
Severe pneumonia? Ya gonna declare a national emergency because a 61 year old died of severe pneumonia in China!"
January 13, 2020 - Thai authorities report a case of infection caused by the coronavirus. The infected individual is a Chinese national who had arrived from Wuhan.
Thailand? Thailand? And Trump is supposed to drop everything else while Democrats are trying to throw him out of office because someone in Thailand has an infection?
January 16, 2020 - Japanese authorities confirm that a Japanese man who traveled to Wuhan is infected with the virus.
Now we got an infection in Japan? OMG, somebody do something!
January 17, 2020 - Chinese health officials confirm that a second person has died in China.
The United States responds to the outbreak by implementing screenings for symptoms at airports in San Francisco, New York and Los Angeles.
That would be
six days after the announcement of the first death caused by the coronavirus in China. Too slow for ya ?
January 23, 2020 - At an emergency committee convened by the World Health Organization, the WHO says that the Wuhan coronavirus
does not yet constitute a public health emergency of international concern.
Wow.....
not yet constitute a public health emergency of international concern.
January 29, 2020 - The White House announces the formation of a new task force that will help monitor and contain the spread of the virus, and ensure Americans have accurate and up-to-date health and travel information.
January 30, 2020 - The United States reports its first confirmed case of person-to-person transmission of the Wuhan coronavirus.
January 31, 2020 - The Donald Trump administration announces it will deny entry to foreign nationals who have traveled in China in the last 14 days.
That's a lot of action in the 20 days since the first death. And only 8 days from being assured by the World Health Organization there wasn't anything to be worried about
So do you feel stupid yet l
