Mayor De Blasio in early March telling people to go to movies and be in large crowds.

"Since I’m encouraging New Yorkers to go on with your lives + get out on the town despite Coronavirus, I thought I would offer some suggestions," de Blasio tweeted on March 2. "Here’s the first: thru Thurs 3/5 go see The Traitor [at Lincoln Center]. If The Wire was a true story + set in Italy, it would be this film."

Trump had already stopped flights from China.   He was doing something.

New York screwed up big time. Both DeBlasio and cuomo reacted very slowly to this virus.  They were still telling people to gather, spend money and have fun on March 10 or later. 
 

Total fuck ups IMO.

Moot point on banning of the flights from China. It was already here and well established by the time flights were stopped. The administration’s mistakes came from a lackadaisical approach. Trump was more concerned about the political fallout of ditched economy than following the science. He talked about his hunches rather than real time science. If someone can see that, then they’re beyond help.

Yeah stopping infected people coming in would have done nothing.  :lol:   You just lost your credibility into these things.

You mean like the impeachment approach the Democrats used?

Are you saying banning flights from China didn't help slow the spread?

I give Trump a C at best on this whole thing.  I give the US CDC a F-.  They're worse than the CCP.  Complete and total fuckup bureaucracy that needs to be totally flushed after this is over and rebuilt.

The cdc issued their travel warning on 1/27. The state dept didn’t move on the ban until 2/4. Thats 9 days. Why? Economics. Trump didn’t want the economy disrupted and he downplayed the significance of the virus. And as for the travel ban, read about the exemptions for both Europe and China. It’s laughable.
