MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough claimed that, unlike the Trump administration, “Everybody saw this coming in early January.”
If Scarborough knew that a deadly, once-in-a-century pandemic was about to descend on the nation in early January — I assume he considers himself part of “everyone” — why didn’t he warn his viewers that they should begin social distancing?
Why didn’t his producers book a single expert who could beseech his viewers to start wearing masks, to shutter their non-essential businesses, and to avoid crowds?
Why didn’t he mention coronavirus at all?
Even in late January, nearly a full month after “everyone knew,” Scarborough’s show was dominated by the Donald Trump impeachment trial.
In the entire month of January, "No Warning" Joe didn’t reference the coronavirus once to his 2.6 million followers on Twitter.
Imagine the thousands of lives Scarborough could have saved if he had only shared his insight.
Does “everyone” include the World Health Organization, which claimed in a January 14 tweet (reflecting earlier findings) that their investigations found “no clear evidence of human-to-human transmission of the novel coronavirus”?
Does “everyone” include the Chinese government — whose propaganda Scarborough shares as reliable data?
Because it was China’s downplaying and lying about coronavirus that ensured its spread around the world. The blood is on their hands.
In early March, when reporters were fixated on a vacuous debate over the political correctness of affixing “China” to the virus’s name, researchers at the University of Southampton released a study indicating that 95 percent of COVD-19 cases would have been prevented around the world if the Communist regime had acted three weeks earlier.
If China had intervened just one week earlier, there would have been an 66 percent mitigation, while two weeks would have led to 86 percent fewer cases.
Even if Scarborough had warned us, what would the public have done differently in early January, before a single confirmed case in the United States?
When Trump “did something” on January 31 and restricted travel to and from China, I don’t recall a single liberal applauding him for taking the virus seriously. In fact, the opposite happened.
