Trump: We will suspend travel from Europe to US for the next 30 days - Trump's announcement to the nation, Wed, March 11, 2020




Tucker: This pandemic came out of China -Thursday, March 12, 2020


Tucker Carlson makes the point that not only did China hide the truth for weeks and allow the epidemic to spread worldwide, but they have made clear they hate America and threatened to withold life-saving pharmaceuticals from the U.S., for the deliberate vindictive purpose of killing Americans. (China, by the way, manufactures about 80% of U.S. pharmaceuticals, a remarkable level of dependence.)
That China, to save face and cover for its own lies, is alleging Coronavirus was created by the U.S.

And that the blame-America talking points are being repeated by Democrat leaders and the liberal media. That liberals' first impulse is to blame America. And of course, to weaponize an issue against Republicans.

And just pointing out, a similar paanic and politicization was not orchestrated by the media or Republicans during the "Swine Flu"/H1N1 virus outbreak in 2009-2010, that infected 60 million Americans, and killed about 30,000 in the U.S.
Just sayin'.



And as a relative measure of what Trump and the CDC are doing now to fight Wuhan Virus/"Covid-19", here is the measure of a similar outbreak of Swine Flu/"H1N1" in 2009-2010:

 Quote:
As of mid-March 2010, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimated that about 59 million Americans contracted the H1N1 virus, 265,000 were hospitalized as a result, and 12,000 died.


Comparatively, Trump is being demonized for an estimated 1,400 total infections and 38 deaths in the U.S., and about 130,000 infections worldwwide.
And Europe, that didn't take similar precaautions of suspending flights from China (Australia and Hong Kong did) is now the epicenter of the outbreak, even as the outbreak seems to have peaked and be receding in China. And Europe is now the source of the new Wuhan Flu cases in the U.S., explaining why Trump last night announced cessation of flights from Europe for 30 days.

A moderate outbreak scenario of Wuhan virus/"Covid-19" in the U.S. would be if it reaches 200,000 cases nationwide.
A worst case scenario outbreak in the U.S. would be 1 million or slightly more cases.
Both of which would exceed by far the China outbreak, and who realistically believes that would happen, with all the warnings and afdvance preparation? But Democrats and the hate-Trump liberal media are ultra-hyping the zombie apocalypse scenario. And, of course, blaming Trump.
