RE: Coronavirus - BmorePat87 - 04-21-2020 (04-21-2020, 02:48 PM)oncemoreuntothejimbreech Wrote: There isn’t a shortage of labs. There is a shortage of tests. Part of it was also that Pence together a list of labs in states not being used and the labs in Maryland were all military and federal, so ones we couldn’t access even if we had tests. Hogan pointed that out and Trump said Hogan “didn’t understand” the “simple” list.

Yeah back when I got sick a month ago, I went to my doctor (who I'm friends with). She was blunt about it: you've probably got it, but even if I send you to one of the testing sites, they don't have any. And the ones they've got (at the time) they were holding onto for medical people.

The 2018 upholding of his 2018 ban also gives him precedent. I suspect there will be no shortage of experts that will be paraded out to justify and support his decision. And I'm sure his slide show of CDC numbers and models shows how we need a total immigrant ban to keep us safe is already ready to roll for today. I don't really get the whole immigration shutdown. The virus is already here, in just about every place it's going get. It seems like a day late and a dollar short to me. I have no doubt that he has the authority to do so. I just don't see any real point. Well, I guess there's one. He gets to smash some libs and snowflakes, so there's that. Things are looking a bit grim for hm at the moment, so I suppose from a strategic standpoint, throwing some chum to the usual Trump crowd can only help him feel better when he gets to have rallies again. I suppose my main question about it would be: if the virus is no big deal, and we all need to stop being candy-asses and re-open the country ASAP, then why the urgency to take an action like this with respect to the virus?

Yea...It's called a deflection by a brain-dead president to work his brain-dead base into a lather. RE: Coronavirus - GMDino - 04-22-2020 Not ALL immigrants mind you. FOX says that Trump is not "tone deaf".
RE: Coronavirus - GMDino - 04-22-2020 There is ALWAYS a tweet.
RE: Coronavirus - GMDino - 04-22-2020 Well, Trump's "business plan" is now in full effect. Someone shut the lights off on the way out. It was a good run. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/mcconnell-says-he-favors-allowing-states-to-declare-bankruptcy/ar-BB1336bq Quote:McConnell says he favors allowing states to declare bankruptcy Mind you individual bankruptcy laws were toughened under Bush and the GOP. RE: Coronavirus - bfine32 - 04-22-2020 I've been monitoring this thread as a spectator for the past 3 months because....... I will say this: I've seen the tragedy bring out the best and the worst in people. I'll leave it up to you to look in the mirror and see which side you trend toward. I will further say this: Breech and I disagree on everything; although we've chewed much of the same dirt. His overall responses in the thread shows; although he's politically biased, it takes a backseat to his mentality as a care giver. He's provided a lot of facts and should be applauded. Some of you on the other hand....

Through all of this I've never really understood the obsession with testing; unless we plan on putting everyone who comes up negative under a bubble.

My understanding is we need to know how far flung this is. How many people may have had it and recovered. If the "herd immunity" is taking shape or if there even is an immunity. The original tests were contaminated. And there still aren't enough tests to get a better idea of where we are with the spread.

Testing can help understand how it spreads (I've heard but don't know that some blood types are more likely to get it, same with younger people being less likely). Also it helps understand the mortality rate. 300 years ago nobody died from cancer. They died from exhaustion or a cough or something else. When we were finally able to test for it, we had an idea of how serious (or not depending on a point of view) it is.
