    you don't have a link I see... Trump cut their funding, Trump needs to increase funding if he wants a rake force

    they could hire van lifers, let them live in their vans, just give them a place to park and earn a paycheck

    I am all about creating more jobs, let's do this

    So, 0.7% death rate of the flu was wrong? Seems like those numbers, 34k/35M is less than 1%.

    Actually he increased the USDA budget and included specially 4.4 billion for wild fire prevention.

    You seem really uninformed on this topic

    We aren't seeing the total numbers you suggest. The Coronavirus has been around since November 2019. It's had four months to propagate in a high density winter environment. Total cases in China haven't exceeded 79,000. Importantly, the number of active cases has been retracting for over 10 straight days.

    The fatality rate has dropped significantly.

    "In China, the overall CFR was higher in the early stages of the outbreak (17.3% for cases with symptom onset from 1-10 January) and has reduced over time to 0.7% for patients with symptom onset after 1 February. "

    Oh, the drama. they didn't completely dismantle the network. That's just your rationalization for posting non facrtual rhetorical garbage talking points that you read n some website like HuffPo or CNN. According to John Hopkins the US has the best system and response in the world for pandemics.

    *shrug All Democrats are the same wherever they ply their trade, on PF or on Democratic Underground. It’s just that PF rules are enforced, and Democratic Underground has no rules so Democrats can be themselves.

    No rocket science, really.

    Well after reading your post we are somewhat in agreement. Aways good to see people not buying into the false two party dichotomy.
