but what about countries like China, N. Korea, Russia, who have a long history of not reporting bad news in the interest of "national security"?

See, he did a perfect job, beautiful, perfect. The best. Couldn't be more perfect.

I am sure his pea sized mind thinks this is a good thing.... I suggest every Dem running for office campaign on this fact. He fucked up bigly and we better not take the damn high road again. Our Dems need to make this the campaign issue (this includes the economy too).

But besides not testing much to begin with I read that the US is going to cut back on testing because we’ve already lost control. That doesn’t make sense to me but not much of our response has made sense.

It’s really taking off now. Still see some people downplaying it. I guess they just can’t grasp the trend. It’s skyrocketing out of control. All a regular guy can do is stay home and help flatten the curve. Maybe by the time I get sick there’ll be some hospital facilities or treatment available.
