Some data on Covid-19 and why we're not over reacting...

The law is clear: the government has broad power in a public health emergency to take the steps needed to stop the spread of a communicable disease. In 1905, the Supreme Court declared: “Upon the principle of self-defense, of paramount necessity, a community has the right to protect itself against an epidemic of disease which threatens the safety of its members.”

This is not a new principle. A few years after the end of the Revolutionary War, Philadelphia was isolated to control the spread of yellow fever. By the time the Constitution was drafted and approved, quarantine was already a well-established form of public health regulation. States, as part of their police power, were deemed to have the authority to order quarantines to prevent the spread of communicable diseases. In 1926, the Supreme Court wrote: “it is well settled that a state, in the exercise of its police power, may establish quarantines against human beings, or animals, or plants.”

It's also the same people who hoard guns, ammo and food talking about be ready for impending disaster . . . and when the first little wrinkle in their lives comes up they are the first to whine because they can't go to Dennys.
Doomsday preppers or pussys?

Chicken fuckin' little...the sky is not falling.
The "people who hoard guns, ammo and food talking about be ready for impending disaster" are just like you.
Delusion & paranoid. Unlike you, they're prepared.
What a moroon....

Ya know, my wife told me today that we are getting antibody tests tomorrow at the house and it will only take 10 minutes. If I have the antibodies, I'm gonna ask you where the next rally is. I'll freak 'em all out by bringing a sign that's spelled correctly.

Bullshit...protesters on the left wear masks, defecate in the street, beat innocent people and destroy property.

Why is it all you doomsday prepper types wearing fatigues who amassed stockades of firearms and ammo with pantries full of supplies are the first ones to cry cuz you can't go get thrown out of an Applebees?

. . . and if the idiot, liar in chief had gotten off his lazy ass and got going on developing tests and administering them then we would know who is sick and who is not. Science, it's a wonderful thing if you believe in it and use it.

Can you explain why campgrounds, beaches and hiking trails are closed?
What anti-viral science promotes staying indoors with all your family members over being outdoors in the fresh air and sunshine?
Doesn't sunshine and fresh air promote health and retard viral growth?
 
Norway and Sweden have similar populations and similar universal health care plans. Norway had strict social isolation protocols in place; Sweden did not.

Like speed limits, lanes on highways, traffic lights etc they are saving us from ourselves. 1 goes then another and another, next you know you have crowds. Sure a well meaning concerned citizen such as yourself wouldn't endanger others with risky behavior but there are always those that don't believe in science. Those people might gather in groups which presents the possibility of transmitting the virus. People are sheep, you have said so yourself on several occasions.

“We don’t have a travel ban,” Klain said. “We have a travel Band-Aid right now. First, before it was imposed, 300,000 people came here from China in the previous month. So, the horse is out of the barn.”

“There’s no restriction on Americans going back and forth,” Klain said. “There are warnings. People should abide by those warnings. But today, 30 planes will land in Los Angeles that either originated in Beijing or came here on one-stops, 30 in San Francisco, 25 in New York City. Okay? So, unless we think that the color of the passport someone carries is a meaningful public health restriction, we have not placed a meaningful public health restriction.”
