Instead we are going to prolong this event until 100 more people die, another week is lost and everyone, including thectreasury, is flat broke.

That idiot Trump is putting America on a path to disaster and Scumo is going to wimp us into the same trajectory until it is too late.

"So far, the new coronavirus has led to more than 220,000 illnesses and more than 9,300 deaths worldwide. But that's nothing compared with the flu, also called influenza. In the U.S. alone, the flu has caused an estimated 36 million illnesses, 370,000 hospitalizations and 22,000 deaths this season, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)."

Just for some perspective.
