Re: Inadequate containment of the virus
But on the plus side, now that the virus is in the States, Trump is encouraging everyone to go to work, even if they’re ill. So that’s alright.
Could there be any greater conceit, than for someone to believe that the universe has to be simple enough for them to be able to understand it ?

Re: Inadequate containment of the virus
That is really sad. It echoes this interesting commentary piece on the BBC website: Coronavirus: A problem unlike anything else Trump has faced - BBC News
​
Over here, even Boris has extended people’s entitlement to sick pay when they get hit by the virus. I wonder if that makes Boris a communist in Faith’s eyes...
