This is scary enough when you have an administration that's able to deal with a crisis in an effective way.
Right now I'm not sure the US administration could manage to bungle up something only as badly as the Hurricane Katrina response.
- nonbel 10y agoNow you know why the CDC freaks out at the slightest hint of a measles outbreak.
- astrodust 10y agoI'm glad they go into DEFCON 1 when there's measles on the loose. I'm worried they'll be told to back off by the President because of "fake news" or some shit and then it'll turn into a crisis of epic mismanagement. Remember when China bungled SARS? That's what the US will do if there's an outbreak now. It's like the only person standing between the president and a total catastrophe is a temporary appointee: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anne_Schuchat https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anne_Schuchat
