[QUOTE="formymax, post: 4438939, member: 28756"] To be clear - virtually everything Trump said about his travel ban is untrue including being called a racist. He wasn’t the 1st to institute the ban as he’s claimed. 12 countries proceeded his decision and another 11 announced bans the same day. Major airlines had already moved to reduce flights before the US announcement. No one disagreed with the ban. In fact, HHS Secretary Azar made the announcement (not Trump) after a “uniform recommendation of the career public health officials here at HHS”. The ban did very little to mitigate the spread of COVID-19, it was already here. Besides, it wasn’t that restrictive and many travelers fell through the cracks. Airport screenings were looking for symptoms of the virus but it turns out almost 25% of the population could be asymptomatic. More than 430,000 people have arrived in the US on direct flights from China since Jan 1st and another 40,000 in the 2 months since the implementation of the travel ban. It was a feeble start and no further actions were taken until mid March. [/QUOTE]
