Milan reports half the passengers arriving on flights from China have Covid.

No doubt half the more than 1,000 arriving here daily from China, also have Covid.

Beginning Jan. 5th, instead of immediately, the US will require people arriving from China to test negative for Covid.

They can always get around that by requesting asylum.

Let's keep an eye on Milan
Let's see if the hospitals get full to capacity
Probably not due to vaccines
In the meantime
Take action
Wear a mask in crowds
Make sure you are vaccinated

Better to let the Chinese infect us and start it all up again than be racist!

The maskers will love it, though. They get to control people as if the masks matter.

Remember when you said no one would remember Covid by May of 2020?

Are you implying American lives are more important than lives of those from other countries?

They should be to the President and the government, protecting Americans is their primary job (which was the context of his link).
Protecting and defending the citizenry and all that.

What is the logic in letting them wait until 1/5/23 to test negatively for Covid, instead of prior to entry? It's bizarre?

Quote is from Newsweek. The complete article is worth reading if you think Fauci did a good job.

"The Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), the most widely circulated medical journal, recently reported its most-discussed articles of 2022. The top three articles were on the discovery of mRNA vaccine particles in breast milk, myocarditis after COVID vaccination, and a study I led at Johns Hopkins on the durability of natural immunity. None of the three were funded by the NIH—all were topics downplayed by Dr. Fauci and other public health officials.

On a personal level, many infectious disease doctors and academic physicians have told me privately they were afraid to disagree with Dr. Fauci because their entire career is dependent on NIH funding. We are now learning—through the Twitter files—that U.S. health agencies pushed for the censorship of opposing opinions from top scientists at top institutions. Health officials could have spent that time and energy conducting much-needed scientifically sound research."
