Have you noticed the same people saying the government is incompetent and reckless in its reactions to the pandemic

are the exact same people pushing for government-run healthcare and the destruction of private health insurance?

UH going to have online classes instead of having students come to school.  That should help the Oahu traffic tremendously.  Still planning to go to Vegas for 2 weeks in April but the wife saying maybe we should cancel.  I said hell no.

TDS still strong. Trump waited too long to do nothing. Umm he blocked china. Thats why our #s are low.

Cant win with these people. Barry waited months for his flu epidemic. Trump saw the writing on the wall and blocked early.

News said there's nothing Hawaii can do right now to stop anyone from traveling here from any mainland US area, even those that have been seeing a large number of cases.

They also said we still have people traveling here from S. Korea, even though they have a rapidly increasing number of cases there.  There's an "honor system" here. When they arrive, they are supposed to self-quarantine if they start to experience symptoms.

Of course, that does nothing for the planes full of passengers who were exposed BEFORE symptoms were presented.

Hawaii is 100% dependent on travel.  They'll risk a massive outbreak before putting common sense restrictions on arrivals from anywhere that the feds don't make them.

My Family that lives in SoCal and AZ was scheduled to fly to Israel with a layover in France. Right before the fist batch left, Israel put a mandatory 14 day quarantine on all people coming from France/Europe. Exception was if you were on layover and didn’t leave the airport you didn’t have to quarantine. So they are there for 3 months and didn’t have to quarantine. Three weeks later the rest of the group’s flight was cancelled when Israel shut down all flights from Europe. Two days before they were supposed to leave.

A guy at work told me that Hawaiian is cancelling all flights to the mainland. This is how fake news is created.

My coworkers wife came in from the city where s.korea had the outbreak. Shes been there for a month. No symptoms, and she is not self guaranteeing. Her english sucks so he cant argue or make her do anything.

Instead, he will self quarantine.  For 2 weeks he will stay home so he doesn't infect the office. She is in her 60s and hes in his 70s.

During the Corona Virus update this morning the president hinted at possibly restricting domestic travel over the next couple of weeks. I’m due to fly out on the 25th. I sure hope whatever restrictions they put on domestic travel don’t include from Hawaii to the mainland. I’ll be homeless with no where to go.

I've seen many times that there is always space available at the homeless shelters.   :thumbsup:

After waiting to sort through the facts from the fiction it now looks like c19 is the real deal. Not a world ender but life after will be different. US is totally unprepared, some states worse than others. From the initial outbreak it seems to take about 50 days to peak and run its course. That means Italy is about halfway through.

There are still sick people out and about so my guess is we are likely to get whacked pretty hard. The virus is one thing, but also dangerous is how people react. Locals are still going to work sick because they cannot afford to stay home. Will see if there is a spike in crimes of desperation but other states are already rolling out the martial law language just in case.

 Right now we have something like 20 people per hospital bed so hopefully the tourists clear out and improve those odds. Today after watching an elderly man have a coughing fit at the supermarket I am voluntarily reducing unnecessary trips, especially if they involve large crowds and tight quarters.

Long before Trump ran for the job, he was saying how we are way too dependent on China and other countries to provide the manufacturing we need here.  Now we see how China TURNED SHIPS AROUND to use the medical supplies and other goods they made rather than have them delivered to the buyers.

We rely on China, not only for the huge number of medical devices and products used daily to treat patients, but also our medications.

This should be not only a wake-up call to those globalists who don't believe other countries would be evil enough to deprive  others of the things they themselves need, but also another in a long list of things Trump got right.

According to Sleepy Creepy Joe, China is not a threat to the US.

They are if we let them continue to be our sole source for critical products.

Do you have a link to a story for this? I Googled all sorts of stuff and could not find any information on this. I mostly get cruise ship story’s and I found one story where the supplies for masks was low due to China not shipping them. But nothing about medical supplies. Thanks!

I'm sorry, but he will not be able to provide you any links because his top secret security clearance prevents him from sharing his sources.    :wacko:

Maybe, if we ask nicely, he can share the inside scope whether or not Trump has COVID19.    :rofl:
