    He did shut down flights from Europe. We haven't even shut down flights from the rest of Europe. Not sure who is crazier or more incompetent to be honest.

    Really. Fcucking hell!

    USA did a good job closing travel early from China and Europe, when the MSM were calling him racist and people on here saying we should retaliate. At least now they can devise a plan state by state and have that extra leeway.

    When was travel closed from Europe?
    Why is there over 43 thousand cases in USA?

    Public Service Broadcasting. She could have just hid behind a sick note. I commend her.

    It will be reassuring for people knowing her confirmed diagnosis. I try to avoid watching it but you can only commend her.

    But the Irish seem to get annoyed watching him? I laugh as well. Irish seem to get so serious about him.

    Are they confused about which country they live in?

    The leader of the free world label just inflates the American ego.

    And no, the attention to America is very high among Irish and much less in other parts of the world.

    "People are blaming China and blaming American citizens I am not going to let that happen."

    From the man who called it the China Virus.

    LOL.

    Bressie must be finding the social distancing tough on the pocket alright.

    Must be hard to find gullible hr managers to pay him to speak his nonsense when you can't fill a meeting room with sheep to lap it up.

    The government had plenty of notice to start scaling up testing, while there is Trojan working on now, why on earth didn’t they start two weeks ago!

    When all this settles a bit Trump will use that China virus thing as a bargaining tool in the trade deal

    The main delay is at the labs isn't it?

    Yes appears to be so. Surely we have more labs and lab analysts? Our medical science industry is pretty advanced.

    Maybe time to get more private industry involved?

    Why would an Irish person be so keen to defend him for the last few years?

    As for watching him, it at least gives us some perspective that no matter how bad we have it with politicians it could be a hell of a lot worse.

    Ah lads ffs trump on cnn now is the worst I’ve ever seen.
    My god they are absolutely fooked.
    He talks of social distancing when his aides are standing right next to him.
    He is so out of his depth here it’s uncomfortable to watch.
    I feel so sorry for the USA if this guy is calling the shots.

    It should be mandatory viewing for everyone voting in Presidential election :D

    He’s evading every question giving zero reassurance and saying zilch / he’s a moron but killing 1000s of Americans daily by his incompetence
