It will get heated. Can't take it, don't open the forum.

A national quarantine is not out of the question in fact I fully expect it. The Ohio governor is proactively looking at this I commend him for it

Ain't nobody really freaking out here. Still got motherfuckers taking a Sunday cruise on their choppers and shiz.

Semi-serious question, but is there a section of your civil service dedicated to creative acronym generation?

Your legislation and initiatives all come as acronyms. Like the new Presidential review into veterans health is called “PREVENTS”. The legislation for work and COVID coverage I think was called CARES. The bill to help regarding children of illegal immigrants was called DREAM. The expanded surveillance is PATRIOT and so on. Hell even the bill to require tax return disclosure was the TRUMP Act.

China reopened the wet markets. Still selling bats, dogs and cats to be eaten.

Imagine if the U.S. or U.K. ended the quarantine and then put a ban on soap...

if it's determined that eating bats in china is the actual root cause, and they aren't gonna stop. then take the same steps that were taken when this was linked to sars and to ebolavirus. if they won't stop, take steps to protect yourself from that potential.

If you're the leader of a country, any country, and people in your country are dying by the hundreds or thousands every day because of China's wet markets, and they reopen the wet markets in the middle of a pandemic that they caused, how would you approach it?

if you can't be bothered to go back and read previous posts from others, don't complain when your own previous posts are not read. :P

but i'll quote it again.

You said "two posts up". That was like 5 posts up. :p

And you didn't explain how, you just said take steps to protect yourselves.

distance or isolate yourself from people who are doing things that are officially known ways of contracting the virus.
