This Incompetent Administration's Response to Coronavirus

[Ike Bana]

"The reason they (the media) are paying so much attention to it (the coronavirus epidemic) today is that they think this is going to bring down the president." Acting chief of staff/rentboy, Mick Mulvaney, 2/29/20.

Meantime the pedophile continues to minimize the seriousness of the outbreak in a feeble attempt to reverse the current necessary correction in the equity markets. If he's so sure of re-election why would he be resorting to fucking nonsense like "nobody here has the virus, it's going to disappear."

Was listening to an interview a couple of days ago now. A epidemiologist from Harvard IIRC and a authority on the Spanish Flu 1918/1919.

Made statements to the effect we will see a outbreak till summer then watch out this fall! Foresees shelter in place for months whole parts of the country and economy shut down as precautions.

Also there may never be a vaccine for this one.

Scary stuff....

Feb 28

for those keeping score, change in Dow Jones Industrial Average from the day they were inaugurated into the presidency through Feb 28 of their 4th year in office:

Trump +28%
Obama +63%

[Ike Bana]

Pretty insane ain't it? Although I don't think Obama had any more to do with DOW performance than any other president. And he did have the advantage of entering office at a point where the equity markets had pretty much bottomed out after the investment banking fiasco.

Trump’s baffling coronavirus vaccine event

The comprehension and attention span of a two year old. Sad!

Coronavirus death rate is 3.4%, World Health Organization says; Donny says 'hunch' tells him that's wrong

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/...te/4961519002/

Sigh. Naturally, he said this on Faux "News", insHannity's hate-monger show.

[donquixote99]

Death rate is a crucial datum. Every .5% of death rate may correspond to about 1 million more people alive or dead in the U.S.

That said, there's plenty of reason to think that early death rate estimates may be inflated. The number of mild, untreated cases that are not in the database is unknown and must itself be estimated. A further complication is news out of China that two strains of novel Corona virus may exist, one more virulent than the other.

So the Flaming Bilirubin Reservoir called his pal Sean Hannity and opined that people with Coronavirus should just man up and go to work anyway. Especially, one presumes, if they're handling the food at Trump Tower, Mar-A-Lago, or the White House.

Pompeo accuses China of setting back coronavirus prevention efforts

This is the only thing this corrupt administration does well - point fingers. This is what they think is leadership?
