            No simplicio China knew how infectious this was in November and allowed their people to fly out of the country in the tens of thousands for months afterward even from the Hubei province. We did not such thing!



            As the Navy said, they were well aware of the problem before Crozier's sent his "non-secure unclassified email."
            China knew how infectious this was in November? Where on earth did you glean that little factoid from?

            The Navy was aware of the problem...... but waited until Crozier put out an mass email (two dozen) to do something. The Diamond Princess (and note the warlike, macho, name) showed what happens when people are in an enclosed ship. To turn the TR into the Diamond Princess would be inexcusable.

              Coronavirus ‘Patient Zero’ May Have Started Pandemic In November or Earlier

              Chinese government data suggest the coronavirus began spreading as early as November, but it still can't confirm 'Patient Zero.'

              Nonsense, how do you know the Navy wasn't already in the process of addressing the problem?

                Okay. The mid November date is problematic, because the extra two weeks would imply that the numbers were greater than reported. I posted a link to an article where Houston TX has almost all its covid-19 cases in the ICU; that is after the existence of this virus is known.

                They may have, but it certainly forced the Navy's hand. The quick move helped save sailors lives.

                The one thing apparent from this epidemic is that transparency and openness is needed. If the Navy was dithering over what to do, then the flag officers need to be replaced, not the captain of the ship.

                  But how many are buying guns because they believe, like some here on Tweb, that the gubmint is coming for the guns because of this epidemic? Hey, don't let a crisis go to waste!!! eleventy one!

                  https://www.kwch.com/content/news/Do...569357011.html

                  We already know that the MSM is waging a misinformation war on this, the videos prove that hospitals are quiet and the MSM needs to use stock photos to illustrate their narrative. (sarcasm)

                  Yeah, and even the OneWorldReligion imposed by the UN/Masons/Pope Francis in preparation for the antichrist articles are out there. For the credulous.

                    Nothing problematic here, you asked where I got the November time line - there it is...

                          I was a novel virus, one never encountered. The 17 Nov date is only a guess, a guess which many do not agree with. But since it was a new virus, no one knew anything about it, and are still (in April) trying to learn about it and discover its secrets. Note the bizarre recommendations from the US politicians, "eat at Bob Evans"; and note the various recommendations from public health officials over the use of masks.

                          China did not know how infectious it was in November, did not know the ease of transmission in November.

                          The fictitious official numbers in the US are just as far off as China's.

                            How broken do things have to be before we start robbing our neighbors? And wouldn’t the liberals have taken their supplies and gathered at the nearest military fort under the command of a brilliant but lazy, and therefore never lived up to his potential, captain who just recently and reluctantly took command because the general and the next 7 officers in the chain of command died from the corona virus?

                                Not very. There's a reason why the police are referred to as "the thin blue line".

                                Enter the Church and wash away your sins. For here there is a hospital and not a court of law. Do not be ashamed to enter the Church; be ashamed when you sin, but not when you repent. – St. John Chrysostom
