    It didn't stop it, but it slowed it down. We would've succeeded even more with a half competent governor in NY. Instead we have the bumbling fool the New Yorkers elected. Well, they got the representation they wanted.

    It curtailed it greatly-that while flattening the curve.

    Dems were calling Trump racist for doing that.

    If Trump hadn't screwed up the testing New York would have contained it.

    Oh BS.
    Thousands of Americans were still traveling back and forth from China. Many more than the number of Chinese.

    Not BS-and the CDC agrees.

    That was the purpose of the ban-to slow the transmission of the disease in the US.

    Thats also the reason for the 2 week isolation precautions were are going through now.

    Given enough testing you can quarantine to contain it, like Korea did.

    Obviously. That's why it didn't matter. It may have made it worse since there was no test for the thousands of Americans returning the next few days.

    He made it worse with his kneejerk response.
    Fewer than 8,000 Chinese were traveling to the US a month.
    Over 8,000 US citizens flocked back in just 3 airports the day after his announcement.
    No testing whatsoever for those people. Not even the kind that backed up the European returns waiting in our airports to get their temperature taken. Another woopie.

    For some reason I thought you were better informed.

    I don't have a problem with cutting off imports from China. It's just that the way it was done made it worse.
    Ask the CDC that question the next time you talk to them.

    So you are in favor of closing off the border? I’m confused you keep flip flopping.


    Agreed. It spread all over South Korea, it was not contained.

    I think it's time for you to take your excuses and go home, so I'll drop this one now.

    Never trust a leftist government. They’re only interested in growing and protecting the government bureaucracy.
