Fake news.
Trump graded his response as a 10 out of 10.
You can't get better than that.

Chinese virus is actually more accurate than Spanish flu. We know that COVID-19 originated in Wuhan, China.

The only reason we refer to the flu pandemic of 1918 as Spanish flu is because Spain was neutral in WW1 and not manipulating or hiding numbers, but it could've started in Asia or even the U.S.
People just weren't as sensitive then... another thing that could use a vaccine.

To our conversation from last night, here's your answer on our lack of herd immunity and this thing not going away.
https://www.imperial.ac.uk/media/im...-College-COVID19-NPI-modelling-16-03-2020.pdf

This is the paper that is informing USA and UK Corona virus policy.

System overwhelmed with no intervention estimated 4 million dead in 3 months. I'd have to go back and look at the percentages but it's like 15% of everybody over the age of 70.

If we isolate only the older people and higher risk groups you'll kill a million but you'll overwhelm the system still which will kill another million. 2 million dead in 3 months.

If you do a heavy lockdown for 3 to 4 weeks you see the curve flatten in the system can respond. So that's where we're at and that kind of matches the timeline that we saw for recovered cases in South Korea and Italy, though they picked very different ways to make the resolve cases start beating their new cases. The issue is is that at the end of a month you can't just put everybody back or The virus will come back faster than the healthcare system can respond resulting in those deaths all over again. You won't be able to identify and quarantine and isolate people fast enough so you get an outbreak. Regional and city returning to longer hours and things like that is what is recommended. And this sort of implies that this has to just happen until either enough heard immunity or a vaccine creates a firewall. And the vaccine will happen in about 12 to 18 months. so at the end of this you might see 100,000 Americans die over 18 months. Drastically better than doing nothing. And again this could get better if we see some experience with cases or prophylactic medicines like malarial pills that we've been talking about.

So for those reading this means expect a 4-week heavy slow down followed by slow loosening restrictions, but expect city or regional limitations on crowds for 12 to 18 months unless a new intervention is developed before then. You will essentially have outbreaks and local areas requiring ebb and flow of gathering and other limitations. So you might be good in Texas at large but Fort Worth or San Antonio might have to cancel schools for a week or whatever and then bring them back online as outbreaks happen.

The only people I've heard of making the claims that it's US made are the retards who listen to and appear on Infowars.

Do have some links outside of that bubble that are making the claim that we created this and spread it through China intentionally? Accidental infection through unregulated wildlife food sources seems much more reasonable and legit IMHO.
go look in the Coronavirus theory thread. I posted links that are from the Chinese government itself posting on Twitter. The infowars crowd loves this but it's actually China that's starting the propaganda and pushing it out. Mattserra.gif

TESLA workers ignore non-essential order and report to work.

Elon Musk in a memo to employees (parahrasing): "I'm showing up for work. Totally OK if you want to stay home"

Also Elon Musk:

"The harm from the coronavirus panic far exceeds that of the virus itself."

How does flooding $1 trillion into the country not have an impact on inflation?
