The WHO is going to play the part of the straw dog here for Republicans. It's going to take some creativity to blame them for deaths and unemployment three months from now, but after seeing John Kerry get swiftboated, nothing would amaze me.

January 14th lol
A whole six days went by before human to human transmission was confirmed. And WHO never said there was no human to human transmission. They said the Chinese report no clear evidence. This was two weeks into the investigation of a new virus. Of course information is going to be dodgy. This is such a ridiculous accusation against WHO.

BTW. Donald trump said the virus was under control and cases would be down near to zero at the end of February, and it would go away in April. If WHO should be defunded, trump should be executed

I started watching The Walking Dead again because of the correlations to what's happening: social distancing, social constructs changing, a mysterious and easily transmitted virus, a crisis that brings out both selfish and cooperative sides of people...
watched this part the other night..looks like we're at about the same point as they were in the show..6 months since it was discovered and 2 months since it went global
There are a lot of things said on TWD that remind me of our current problems

When i said weeks/months, that was relating to the sequence of events i noted, i wasn't specifically saying that they denied h2h for months. Taiwan confirmed they sent emails on dec 31 specifically stating that they suspected h2h by what they found, and it was ignored and the who waited 3 weeks to report h2h. I can't believe you're defending the who

They weren’t ignored. The WHO also said there were reports of human to human transmission during that same period.

Regardless, none of this early and understandable lack of concrete information in early January has any bearing on policies developed or not developed in late February.

Nah you missed a whole bunch of it, and you're missing the entire point completely. I said that because the other poster said the who was raising alarm bells in December, which clearly wasn't the case. Then you isolated one point of many and took the sentence out of context to prove me wrong

Yes

If you support cell phone tracking of people who test positive for coronavirus you have zero right to complain about the Patriot Act.

That's simply not true. Everyone has a right to complain about everything. It's the American way! Some people complain about a 5 hour ban from a drug website.
Besides, everything I've seen about the app is that it won't track. It's not even going to use GPS. Instead, it'll use Bluetooth to determine whether you've been in contact with someone who's tested positive.

And some people pretend to be lawyers while spending all day moderating a drug forum.
Ts certainly NOT your right to have access to a strangers medical records. Stay inside forever if your scared.

I don't think the app is going to give you access to anyone's medical records. From what I can tell, the app detects other phones within Bluetooth range, which isn't very far. When it finds one, it just notes the particular code of that phone to determine whether that code has been flagged as positive. It's not going to identify who is positive and who isn't. It's not going to give you any information about that person.
And you can always leave Bluetooth off...or, god forbid, not carry your phone with you. If you were really concerned about privacy, you wouldn't even have a smartphone.

That's right.
Surely there's a difference between knowing someone's medical records and knowing they have a contagious disease and that you should stay away from them.
The onus should be on the infected person to keep the public safe or they should stay inside... but a small %, the arrogant fuckers, won't.
How about we hang a cow bell around their neck?

Frankly, it's an accommodation. The state would be well within its power to quarantine contagious sick people under lock and key. That has historically not been popular, but it's certainly within the power of the government to do it. Making such people announce their contagiousness, whether electronically or by some other means, would be a far less intrusive accommodation.
