Had they come clean as early as is now suspected, lives could have been saved. A lot of lives.

If there was no clear evidence from preliminary investigations, should they have fabricated some?

I'm hard pressed to think how the Chinese could have experienced a virus this contagious and not known it was due to human-human transmission.

They certainly fabricated that story of no evidence, that's for sure.

Unless, of course, you trust the CCP was being honest.

I mean...it was reported as a cluster of pneumonia cases just two weeks before year tweet. Two weeks ain't a lot of time to figure out properties of a disease

I love it when the best someone can come up with is "get your facts together" and doesn't point to anything I've said that's not factual.
Your claim that the travel ban was already instituted by the airlines before he did it.  Completely false.  

posted an article up thread dated 1/28 that said several airlines were thinking about it.

I can’t believe we are still having this conversation.    The WHO has now even officially backtracked on their original claim that CCP was upfront with in disclosing it to them.  
They quietly changed  their website to reflect what really happened- they learned about it on the internet. Plus you have the missing doctors.

Assigning blame to anyone/anything besides the CCP is foolish at best. They knew what they had and they unleashed it.

Throughout most of March we were told to not wear masks. Our highest profile leaders were telling us to go about our business. Take cruises. Fly anywhere (but China). Then before you could say California three times, we were mostly all on lockdown.

This thing got bad for us, and it got bad fast.

One thing I do wish happened was not only closing to China, but closing the borders to all travel, no matter where to or where from. It would have caused extreme backlash at first, but lives would have been saved. I'm not sure anyone in this country would have had the stones to do it. Seriously.

I dunno, it's been months and given our federal government's complete ineptitude it's hard to blame anyone else. This isn't the first pandemic, it won't be the last. It's less about some wrong decision here or there and more about having a plan that people understand and can follow.
