The COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic poses two threats: public health and economic.
I am living in Italy, where my wife, Callista, is the ambassador to the Holy See.
I have watched first-hand as the Italian government has worked hard to contain the coronavirus by imposing strong public health measures to try to get the epidemic under control. These measures will lead to significant economic challenges.
As I write:
- All schools are closed in all of Italy.
- All churches are closed (including St. Peter's Basilica).
- All weddings and funerals are postponed.
- All restaurants are closed.
- In fact, all stores except grocery stores and pharmacies are closed.
- People are urged to work from home unless they work in special designated factories
It's actually the one relevant thing he's ever had to say.
ReplyDeleteHow is your gun free Democrat attitude going to help you when your STARVING ?
DeleteIt is so bad there because they waited too long
ReplyDeleteIf anyone has been following the Italy situation they would realize that Trump is doing the right thing by closing travel, etc down. Hogan is doing the right thing by closing schools, etc.
Now it is up to us to stay home.
Get your supplies and stay home as much as you can.
AND THEY LOVED THOSE OPEN BOARDERS.
DeleteYeah, people aren’t understanding the “stay home part”.
DeleteScrew every other country, America first!
ReplyDelete12:43 PM I have elderly parents who are able to live on their own but still need help everyday with meal
ReplyDeletepreparation and laundry/cleaning. So am I just supposed to stay home and let them fend for themselves?
Sorry but life goes on and "social distancing" is just another way to allow the government to tell us what we can and can't do.
