FFS why hasn’t the US govt blocked travel in from China completely by now?
Money, that’s why. And a sprinkle of incompetence.
This is crazy, even in our country Chinese keep on coming even with risk of this pandemic.
I thought it did.
@F. J. Not back when I posted that.
Thanks Trump
Of course Trump fired the pandemic response team. 🤦♀️ Of course.
May God be with us all I pray to u father that u put your hand on the people that need u in this
How anyone can support Trump is BEYONNDDDDDDDD
How could anyone support Hillary is BEYOOOOONNDDDDDDD me
You will be ok , but stop eating rat , bat , dog , cat , insects , pork , snake meat , and stop spitting everywhere lol hahhahahahha
Yah
I absoultley agree with u…. not trying to be bad…. but the chinese never never change their ways in what they eat n other…. n there is always disease n outbreak …. they are not careful enough n more people fet infected n die from this al the time…
Y’all are so stupid. It has nothing to do with what they ate. This was all done on purpose
@Shannon Sunshine It was from testing on a bat in a lab in Wuhan.
Didn’t take her long to blame Trump……leftist are satanically insane in their hatred for Trump
Atomic – stil POTUS!!!!
lady rampages at high-school level, than gives travel advice on an exponentially growing outbreak; 7:01, right now we have only 2 or 3 cases, …, but I wouldn’t route trough China. OMG face-palm, then route trough HK? (what if, as they are closing borders with China already) They will isolate that too, or what about HCMC? They are isolating those too soon, those so called experts on national news do more harm than good. They strong people will be ok, but you attract the risk to the very young and the elderly.
And what about coins and bills 🤔😲

The dirtiest things around.
Or insects and birds.
Use credit cards.
Eating animals always harms your health, the only solution is eat green veg
Eating the wrong animails will cause harm.
Amir Subbha i think so for the short term
If it’s out of control in china what are the chances it’ll spread in the u.s? She talks about how its spread during incubation period yet people have already left china before it was locked down, how the hell is it going to be stopped now?
But it’s already in America, I’m stunned how they are downplaying it . It’s just that no deaths reported yet
There is no point?!? Why did they had to eat bats and mask don’t help you.
Hamza Safi The virus is man made. It was not from eating bats. It’s for population control
@Shannon Sunshine Your partially right. It came from a lab testing on bats.
Can you say ‘pandemic’?
TRUMP FIRED THE PANDEMIC TEAM
NOBODY REFERS TO HIM AS PRESIDENT HMM
I wish Chinese would stop eating snake meat. There’s a wide variety of meats we can eat without having to resort to eating infected snakes and developing deadly viruses. Dr Joshua Lederberg said, “The single biggest threat to man’s continued dominance on this planet is the virus.”
Alan Morris it’s not from eating snakes or bats. Look it up. It’s man made. Stop blaming the Chinese people
@Shannon Sunshine
The genetic strain or code that virologists detected in the virus matched that of snakes.
I been doing this procedure for years up to now you Called it “Social Distancing” to get away from others being toxicity which is also useful for avoidance of getting viruses diseases👍
TRUMP FIRED THE WHOLE PANDEMIC RESPONSE TEAM!?
That was definitely a “wait, what” moment, wasn’t it..
Jeffrey Jones fucking unbelievable
lmao no he didn’t?
Did he? Or is that a question? Hard to tell
People, you have a worse problem than corona…
Wear gloves? But it is air born
Not only airborne
Thousands dead. Hundreds of thousands infected. It’s fake news to keep everyone calm.
Thank you!
This lady neglected the fact that a bus driver got infected and he never went to China…that’s enough to worry
But I bet he met people who did. Busses are high traffic.
Africa protect yourself we don’t have even have hospitals here. God bless China may you find a cure.
72 hours quarantine is a piss-take, it should like what it is in the UK, France and other countries like that etc
That lady looks like she brushes her hair with a shoe
I’m scared I don’t wanna die I’m only 13
Domt worry your parents will do there best to protect you all
Same I am only 11
Get praying my friend, get praying
Matthew Taylor yea your right
Oh baby mom of a 12 year old son here don’t panic stop watching stuff it’s not going to help just keep living your life Hun everything will be alright
STOP. DROP. SHUT ‘EM DOWN OPEN SHOP.
LOL to all the people who said the next epidemic would come from Africa!!
That’s not funny that’s scary
Stop it’s not funny 😤😤
Asian eat bats ?
They basically eat everything……. They got to the point where they eat dead babies that die when they’re born–
Tip… 1st line of defense 1. Mask. 2. Clean nose with hydrogen peroxide saturated Q-tip, plus brush teeth and gargle with it. Last take Tylenol Severe cold and flu. Helps me prevent colds. I do this at first sneeze and cough. Don’t wait till full blown!
🇨🇷😬 Thanks! 😐
Y’all just need to stay away from sick people and wash your hands every 5 minutes 💀.
Bruh people have jobs,school,etc.We cant just go every 5 min to wash hands.Antibacterial gels like purell and balea are better.If you wash your hands buy those antibacterial ones if you’re really scared of corona.
Till now no initiative prevention taken by the Indian government in india.
You can do it yourself
900 people get Coronavirus and the whole world wants to wear a surgical mask …& 30 million people have AIDS but still, nobody wants to wear a condom.
Trump fired the pandemic responds team. What the hell
Yes he did
Trump the idiot will not act to protect the American people until its too late.
But you can protect your self
I hope China get destroyed by now…. I always used to hate them cause they eat dogs….So do not feel sorry for them …. only sorry for Chinese people who were good people and loved animals…. More hate for their government which never did anything for all that animal cruelty they saw happening in their own country ….. They are lucky I do not have a child…They are veeeery lucky
Why?
What worries me is when you are at the airport and they make everyone take their shoes off and walk through the same floor like that can those germs infect someone?
You can protect yourself if you want
Because I can’t wait for the governments to protect me.
Can you catch the virus from handling Money? Jobs like grocery store cashier, bank Taylor, fast food cashier….?
what do you mean?
Angela Smith if someone has coronavirus and sneezes on the money or coughs on the money can you catch it if you take that money working as a cashier or bank Taylor
“Canada has issued a huge list of protective measures that they are calling upon hospitals, physicians and individuals to take across Canada. We have no such recommendations issued by our government. We don’t even have somebody centrally in charge in our government to handle this because trump fired the whole pandemic response team two years ago. . . .” Laurie Garrett, Pulitzer Prize winning author of ‘The Coming Plague’
There is a cure and protect for it
I was afraid when I heard the Corona virus
Take care of everyone.
Am I contagious IMMEDIATELY after being infected. I’ve always known that after you get sick, you are only contagious for a few days. But what about the length of time it takes, after a sick person coughs near you (aka you inhale a one single virus), that you can infect another person (with the offspring of that one single virus)? Looking for approximately times, just trying to get a completely healthy person a ride home from the airport. And need to argue the suspicion as to if the driver is still safe even if someone was sick on the plane. If they were near an infected person on the airplane. How long do they have before they also become contagious?
80 thousand already in the USA
She knew it will get worse
