Rhode Island confirms first case of coronavirus, 40 people being monitored

At least 40 people in Rhode Island are being monitored after the state confirmed its first case of the coronavirus, health officials said.

The Rhode Island Department of Health announced early Sunday that the man, in his 40s, recently had returned home after a trip to Italy, where cases of the coronavirus have skyrocketed in recent months.

Rhode Island Gov. Gina M. Raimondo said during a news conference that the risk for Rhode Islanders remained generally low and there was no need to panic or be frightened.............

I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

It’s Swine Flu 1976 all over again. Remember who was President then? Another Republican, Gerald Ford.

Yep. IIRC, More people died from reactions to the shot than the disease.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
