Political correctness proves deadly once again.

Back in February, health officials in New York told residents to congregate in huge crowds in “defiance” of coronavirus, a move that could have exposed thousands of people to COVID-19.

New York City Health Commissioner Oxiris Barbot posted a tweet on February 9 urging citizens to flock to Chinatown in large numbers to celebrate the lunar new year while suggesting that advice to avoid crowds was “misinformation.”

At this point President Trump had already said he "pretty much shut it down"  on the 10th he said "a lot of people think that goes away in April." Looks like there was a lot of bad information going around.  If we are going to slam these people for keeping business running during what they thought was a hoax, then maybe we should be honest who was leading that charge.

This would be utterly hilarious if not for the very real consequences we have now from it.

So? They can just blame Trump and the sheeple will fall for it.

It is New York.  I expect there's some truth to that.
