Not disagreeing with that suggestion, but how can it possibly be enforced? And should it happen in areas with zero cases of the virus?
Covid deaths pushing toward 5k per day.

This is serious. We're at WAR! We need leadership who takes it as serious as that. If we do, then we have a chance to dramatically shorten the life cycle of the virus for this year. But where is the seriousness when we have a President who is actually talking about filling the pews for Easter Sunday when this thing is only beginning to hit the U.S.? This is asinine.
We have no way of knowing where the pockets of zero cases are and, more importantly, how long they will remain virus free.
It should be nationwide. There are few areas (if any) with zero cases. And there will be even less going forward. Enforcement isn’t as important as a unified message from our leaders to shelter in place. Rather than the haphazard way some states are doing it. Hell some state governors are overruling cities stay at home orders. Again, the goal isn’t to throw people in jail or fine them. It’s to keep people like my brother in law from trying to take my nephew to the playground this weekend because he lives his life in accordance with Trumps Twitter feed.
I’ll wait until it’s not basically blocked by partisan hacks like Cuomo
So Trump tried and what happened? Immediately shot down
Are you capable of typing a response that doesn't include a criticism of Trump?
More to your point, why is it asinine to suggest that there are areas that arent infected?
Can you give me an example of where people arent being encouraged to shelter in place?
What is asinine is to think that we will continue to have 'virus-free zones' in a country without a national stay-at-home order.
So you want martial law. YOU cannot leave your house without permission of the government. The same government led by Trump. You ok with that scenario?
Lucky for you there is this handy map.

Here is why you issue stay at home orders even when it seems nobody is infected in your area.

Yesterday was a bad one. We're getting to the point where this will be killing more people every day than all forms of cancer combined.

Yeah, it's the whole country bud. Not sure how much you're paying attention but 4 or 5 days ago we only had one state with over 25 deaths in a day. Now there's like 6 or 7 hitting that number.
Trump controls the FDA. If he thought it was a good idea he could suspend FDA regulations and make the drug available for a first line treatment.
Don't blame the democrats when Trump has the power. If it was actually a game changer he could sign an EO tomorrow. It's his agency that is holding approval back.
The truth is that it's more dangerous than we know right now. There's a reason he doesn't just swipe a pen and cure coronavirus. That reason is that its too dangerous.
Dude are you schizophrenic? Multiple personalities? Who answers their own post?

It's not real. Cuomo wants the federal government to bail them out of their prior malfeasance that led to near bankruptcy so he and NBC are sensationalizing this.
Imagine being so goddamn stupid you actually think Trump is doing a good job handling this.
Hindsight on March 9th?
It's only hindsight if you're dumb as hell. Trumps daily briefings warned of c19 disaster in January and February.
Random posters here knew it was going to be serious before the president and he has the whole IC and CDC at his disposal.
And yet to these trump apologists, the president is off the hook because HINDSIGHT? He equated it to the flu on March 9th. Less than a month ago.
Just stop and think about this: Ninja started a corona virus thread in January. Yet Trump -- the guy who's job it is to protect the American People -- was ignoring his health advisers like Dr. Fauci and was still poo-pooing it into mid-March for crying out loud!!!
Had to give his cronies a chance to peace out of the stock market.
Bullshit. It was part of his new "China is the corona virus enemy" PR campaign.
If Trump was REALLY serious about it, he'd have restricted all international travel into the country to returning permanent residents, and only then after testing and a 14-day voluntary quarantine.
Instead of pure bullshit like "we have it under control," he should have been sounding the alarm to stay at home. Literally thousands of Americans are dying because our country was painfully slow to act -- even though the US had the benefit of being one of the last countries hit.
Stop being a clueless dickhead.
So we should have just stranded Americans overseas until the rest of the world gets this under control?
You know we've had a pathetic response to the virus in this country when this random guy in Nebraska can honestly answer: Yes.
JAN. 20
Other countries, including the United States, confirmed cases.
The first confirmed cases outside mainland China occurred in Japan, South Korea and Thailand, according to the World Health Organization’s first situation report.

The Trump administration suspended entry into the United States by any foreign nationals who had traveled to China in the past 14 days, excluding the immediate family members of American citizens or permanent residents.

Yeah, really slow response guy. Fukcing morons
it only took FDR 3 years after Germany started to make Poland a death camp and 2-3 after nearly taking over Great Britain before HE did something.
So.., how long was the Bombing of Pearl Harbor and United States involvement in WW-2 after Hitler took power?![[roll]](http://l.yimg.com/j/assets/img/emoticons/classic/roll.r191677.gif "roll [roll]")

To any fukwit saying we should have been taking massive, drastic action in January then maybe you should go cry your eyes out and yell at Dr Fauci.
WHO says not even contagious in mid January
Fauci says not a major threat to US on Jan 21
Democrats still running impeachment all of Jan
Mindless liberals still insist that Trump should have been upending the country by early February.
This is disingenuous drivel from the same morons who have been producing disingenuous drivel about the President since January 2017
