Governor of Ohio Mike Dewine just announced that any public gatherings of over 100 people are temporarily banned, and schools will be closed for the next three weeks.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
But I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of man
Than a fool in the eyes of God

Doesn't the Constitution have something to say about this?

Another note on Rudy Gobert, one of the two NBA players who tested positive:
Sources say that he was nonetheless feeling well enough that he could have played in that evening's game.
Obviously an NBA star is going to be at the very top of any fitness percentile, but nonetheless, this helps put the issue in perspective."I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion. I am angry when the same men who say, "Save OUR children" bellow "Build more and bigger bombers." That's right! Blast the children in other nations into eternity, or limbless misery as they lay crippled from "OUR" bombers! This does not jell." - Leonard Ravenhill

Peak of epidemic in UK expected in 10 to 14 weeks from now. Advice is to avoid severe isolation measures until really needed. Otherwise they are ineffective.“I think God, in creating man, somewhat overestimated his ability.” ― Oscar Wilde

Originally posted by Mountain Man View PostThe best part is that if Hillary was president and did the exact same things Trump is doing, the media would be telling us how masterfully she's handling the crisis and that there is no reason for alarm. Heck, that's what they said about Obama's lackadaisical response to the swine flu!
Meanwhile your liar in chief continues to not take the situation seriously, the stock market crashed as the world has no confidence in his leadership (go figure), and continues to lie through his crooked teeth:
Trump: “Frankly, the testing has been going very smooth.” He added: “We have heavily tested.”
Reality: to date there have been 11,000 tests (the majority in the last two weeks) - S. Korea tests 10,000 people, per day. It has a population 1/6 that of the US.
We are three months into a crises that was wholly predictable, the US's abysmal failure to ramp up its response, that is.

Democrats rolled out an emergency funding bill at a lean 127 pages and included a number of necessary provisions, such as tax payer funding for abortion.
What?

This outbreak will probably show which system can handle the overload better, socialized or private healthcare. I bet the socialized healthcare systems are already overloaded because they stay that way even when there isn't a pandemic.

Los Angeles County has called for closing of anything where 150 or more are likely to gather, so Disneyland and other venues will shutdown until further notice.
San Bernardino County have no reported cases, but Barstow Unified School District has cancelled events. I think Barstow also has shut down some things but I can't find the announcement right now. ETA: appears to be just the school district.Last edited by DesertBerean; 03-12-2020, 07:04 PM.Watch your links! http://www.theologyweb.com/campus/fa...corumetiquette
