From your linked article- "...what is expected to be a long, winding process of repealing the Affordable Care Act"
So, not being repealed in real time, as you claimed. Not being repealed today, as you claimed. Instead, "the long, winding process" has begun.
From your linked article- "Though the repeal is on the top of the legislative agenda, Trump is unlikely to put his pen into action on it anytime soon."
It will be quite some time before the actual repeal happens. Not anytime soon. No need for panic. No need to sow fear.
From your linked article- GOP leaders' comments that they want to replace the bill at the same time they repeal it suggest that a seamless transition may take time. House Speaker Paul Ryan said replacement and repeal would happen "concurrently," and Trump has pledged it will be "simultaneously."
So by the Republicans own words, there will not be a time when there is no plan in place.
In fact, Republicans are going to vote to continue funding for the present plan. http://www.politico.com/story/2017/01/republicans-obamacare-subsidies-233618 http://www.politico.com/story/2017/01/republicans-obamacare-...
Again, no need to spread fear.
