The first person in the US to be diagnosed with COVID-19 who had NOT travelled outside the United States was diagnosed on FEBRUARY 25, the DAY Mardi Gra took place.
Seriously? Ya'll want to blame Trump for letting you go to Mardi Gra? HOW IRRATIONAL!
How would it have sounded if he had got on live TV on FEB 24 and said, "There is a virus ravaging China right now. I closed the Borders to China in January because of it. There is a TRAVEL BAN in place. Therefore, it is not advisable for anyone to go to Mardi Gra!"
EVERYONE, including ME would have thought he'd lost his mind. I almost did when he finally DID.
Not any more.
So, to put this in perspective:
The FIRST person to contract the virus who was not travelling to or from the US was on February 25. The day Mardi Gra STARTED.
The first person to be diagnosed in NY was on March 2.
Let that sink in. There are over 175,000 in the US today, 3351 REPORTED in TX right now.
At the rate it is going, even with quarantine, there will be over 50 Million who have COVID 19 in 6 months. There were only 54 Million who had ALL the other flus combined during the last 6 months.
Trump is doing, and HAS BEEN doing the right thing....buying us time. Just think what the numbers would be WITHOUT the quarantine measures.
