spin_dry Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 There are several factual inaccuracies in this excerpt alone. For instance, PJ media writes that H1N1 became a pandemic in April 2009. But that’s not the case. The disease emerged in April but wasn’t declared a pandemic until June. The excerpt also claims that Obama “declared a public health emergency on what was already a pandemic” in October 2009. But this is also wrong. Obama declared a national emergency, not a public health emergency, in October 2009. The Obama administration declared a public health emergency in April, months before swine flu was declared a pandemic. At the time that the Obama administration declared a public health emergency, only 20 confirmed cases (not over a million) of H1N1 existed in the United States. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has a detailed timeline of this pandemic on its website. It shows that the CDC first activated its Emergency Operations Center (EOC) on April 22, 2009. At the time, there were only two confirmed cases in the United States. On April 25, 2009, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared a public health emergency of international concern, and the following day the Obama administration did the same. At that time, there were about 20 confirmed cases. Despite the CDC’s efforts, the swine flu continued to spread. Kathleen Sebelius, secretary of health and human services, renewed the emergency declaration on July 24, 2009, and then again on Oct. 1, 2009. On Oct. 24, 2009, Obama declared a national emergency that gave officials more resources to fight the pandemic.

Obama was weak, stupid and inept at a level it would be hard to compare anyone to at all. He was the perfect chosen leader for those possessing the same qualities.

1jkw Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Remember China, Japan, Italy, France, and Germany closing up schools and business's then? No, neither does anyone else cause it didn't happen. If this is no big deal why did Trump put a travel ban in place? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XCR1250 Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 “They tried anything,” said Trump about a minute after his first mention of the coronavirus. “They tried it over and over. They’d been doing it since you got in. It’s all turning. They lost. It’s all turning. Think of it. Think of it. And this is their new hoax.” When looking at the entirety of Trump’s remarks, it appears the “new hoax” comment refers to the Democrats’ alleged “politicizing” of his response to the coronavirus threat—not the coronavirus itself. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets hope it doesn't progress here. Hope not. I visited the old crib where I worked today. It’s a multi disciplined agency with a nursing home and a neurocare unit attached. They’re doing a really good job at screening people and controlling the flow of visitors. I understand a legislator came to visit and was turned away because of a recent visit to Mexico. Measures are in place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
