You should note around the world that trump's popularity is YUGE!   I know a ton of people who big time admire Trump in India because they dont know nothing about him outside of being a hotel owner and being on apprentice.  They know nothing about his checkered history or his bankruptcy 

 

 

Well they did vote for Modi and his nationalists.

Here in LA, Mayor Garcetti is saying shelter in place at least through May and that is very worried that thousands -- at the very least -- will die. 

 

And this is not a very dense city.

Trump's team failed to follow the NSC's pandemic playbook: According to a previously unrevealed White House playbook, the government should've begun a federal-wide effort to procure PPE at least two months ago

 

Thanks, Obama.

New York authorities mobilized to head off a potential public health disaster in the city Wednesday, with its emergence as the nation’s biggest coronavirus hot spot a warning flare — and perhaps a cautionary tale — for the rest of the country.

 

A makeshift morgue was set up outside Bellevue Hospital, and the city’s police, their ranks dwindling as more fall ill, were told to patrol nearly empty streets to enforce social distancing.

 

Public health officials hunted down beds and medical equipment and put out a call for more doctors and nurses for fear the number of sick will explode in a matter of weeks, overwhelming hospitals as has happened in Italy and Spain. New York University offered to let its medical students graduate early so that they could join the battle.

Having the unfortunate task of filing unemployment for 4 weeks in early 2019, it was abundantly clear that this is an understaffed, under funded, function of government that operates via archaic systems. There is not a chance in the world, they could quickly and easily prepare their systems to match the payout to each filers salary.  It would be months before a lot of people ever started getting paid.  To get people paid quickly, it has to be a flat figure.
