Because it's practically impossible to "prevent" diseases like this Coronavirus outbreak.
Of course, I suspect what you mean by "prevention" is "stop all these diseased brown people from traveling to where the nice clean white people are".
- RobertRoberts 7y agoThe CDC's full title is: "Centers for Disease Control and Prevention" Are you saying they have labelled themselves incorrectly? The CDC's page on coronavirous discusses prevention: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/about/prevention.html https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/about/prevention.html Do you think the CDC's list for prevention is pointless? Here's the CDC's list of prevention actions (besides avoiding contact): * Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after going to the bathroom; before eating; and after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing. * If soap and water are not readily available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol. Always wash hands with soap and water if hands are visibly dirty. * Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands. * Avoid close contact with people who are sick. * Stay home when you are sick. * Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash. * Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces using a regular household cleaning spray or wipe.
