It’s ok, tell them the president says the disease is going to disappear.

Playing politics with this shit is the absolute worst thing to do.

Downplaying it can cost Trump dearly.

Would you rather have him create a panic? Pretty sure all Presidents would have said similar things.

BBC News suggests if the trends continue we are going towards a global recession

As much as I hate that creature I don't really care about election right now.

I'm scared to death about something happening to my little boy. If something happens to me, fuck it. The life insurance policy will more than look after my wife and child, so at least they won't have to worry about the bills.

But man, I don't know what to do. I can't keep him shielded from the world, but every time someone around him sneezes, I damn near have a panic attack.

I meant that he could be pointed out in history as a fool that puts the economy above the public health.

Oh I agree. That’s exactly what a narcissist sociopath would do.

How old is he now? 3? At least he's not an infant.

He'll be 4 in April. At this point though, when will it get to the point where no age group is safe? We are starting to head down that path now.

I have a hard time believing that Obama would come out and say, "this will kill thousands of people and we aren't prepared." Actually, no politician in the world would do that, as it's all a confidence game, whether it be politics, markets, or sociology.

Hopefully the virus dies off as temperatures get warmer instead of mutate into something worse.

The policy should be more like - examining cases in the country and putting quarantines wherever you find the virus. The problem is that this will blockade cities, many will go bankrupt, crime rate will spike and so on. So Trump prefers to keep calm until things get drastic.

Whatever happens we are the men of our families and we should keep calm and give confidence to others. It's our job to protect them and show no fear no matter what and hope for the best.

Has it reached anywhere with a tropical climate yet?

They should be testing more for sure. If they do eventually have to quarantine a huge city like NYC, then the market would be wiped out no matter what anyone does because nobody could even get to the stock exchange!

Yeah, but I can't see USA dodging this bullet.

I think there was one case reported in Nigeria, but that person came from Iran or China. But yeah, we definitely need to watch what happens in those sort of climates.

One case in Brazil iirc
