**Finally!!!** #United Airlines cancels flights to and from China!!! (But what about other foreign airlines that fly between China and the USA???) https://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/en/news-page/news-nation/united-airlines-cancels-flights-to-and-from-china "Due to a significant decline in demand for travel to China, we are suspending some flights between our hub cities and Beijing, Hong Kong and Shanghai beginning Feb. 1 through Feb. 8," according to a company statement. "We will continue to monitor the situation as it develops and will adjust our schedule as needed." Meanwhile: Earlier Tuesday, the Department of Health and Human Services announced it would increase the number of American ports of entry with screening for the coronavirus from five to 20. So more cities will get exposed passengers. Aren't we going in the wrong direction here? ---- #UPDATE: Flight carrying 240 Americans evacuated from Wuhan is diverted to US military airbase in California https://www.theepochtimes.com/plane-carrying-american-evacuees-from-china-amid-coronavirus-outbreak-diverted-to-california-air-base_3219943.html https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7941211/Flight-carrying-240-Americans-evacuated-Wuhan-diverted-military-airbase.html #Hallelujah!!!

Governments tend to be reactionary in a crisis. Up until the time it is critical (usually too late) they will rely on hope. Right now, they "hope" this will not be a problem. When it becomes a problem, then they will react to the inevitable outcome of their previous poor decision. You can bet they are planning secretly behind the scenes for when they will have to react to the crisis, if it becomes one. ----
