Oh, a lot of the poorest probably don't have the infrastructure to capture cases and report them reliably.

Sorry, the islands are full enough as it is and like much of the world, they have kept safe by not allowing Americans to travel there.

My last post of the night:
Super interesting article about super spreading based on the February Biogen conference. One infected person seeded an estimated 245,000 cases across US and Europe.
science.sciencemag.org
There is a review of this article here (yes, I know, CNN, but it's a good review and they don't blame Trump)
www.cnn.com
One of the key points is that the infected person came from Europe and likely there was significant community spread going on there for a while before. The west was screwed before many recognized this a "a thing."

Boston biotech conference led to 245,000 Covid-19 cases across US, genetic fingerprinting shows | CNN
A biotech conference in Boston last February that's already been flagged as a Covid-19 superspreading event led to at least 245,000 other cases across the US and Europe, a new genetic fingerprinting study shows.

^^^ Are you saying that maybe the spread wasn't President Trump's fault? Say it isn't so

And California is a model for how to prevent the spread BTW

Now THAT'S funny!
I'm just saying the review by CNN didn't go off on what you guys describe as a TDS rant; it was actually a good, sober, fact-based review of the Science article. I'll admit, I only skimmed the Science article briefly so far but will give it a good read over the holidays. No time before then. So I appreciated the summary article from CNN (though I did check some of the details to make sure they lined up with the Science article).
As we learn more data about the early spread of this thing, a few things become clear:
1. Trump's "China travel ban" didn't matter, as there were many circulating cases here already that hadn't emerged from the background enough to be noticed. Note I was a supporter of the travel ban and only wished at the time it had been more comprehensive...
2. The exceptions to the China travel ban (along my point of wishing it were more comprehensive) didn't matter.
3. The Pelosi "Come on down to Chinatown," which I understood as a pushback against the anti-Asian sentiments at the time, but which I always thought was a dumb idea during an obvious epidemic, remains a dumb thing to have done. Hindsight grants us clarity that no calls to cluster in urban areas should have been made... Chinatown, Little Italy, or anything.
The picture that is emerging is one in which it's obvious this disease was destined to spread like wildfire through a world where close contact and lots of travel were prevalent.

Does that statement have anything to do with Fauci assuring the black community that they can have faith in the vaccine because it was developed by a black woman??
Vaccine ‘developed by an African American woman’, says Fauci responding to concerns, mistrust
Dr. Kizzmekia Corbett is the National Institute of Health's lead scientist for coronavirus vaccine research. She is part of a team that worked with Moderna on one of the two mRNA vaccines expected to receive FDA emergency use authorization.

Its all about identity politics now man, keep up Makes no matter if its right, wrong, or a blatant lie, as long as it sounds good to the SJW crowd and no credit is given to any white racist (which is all whites) it's good to go.

I expect a lot of the hypocrites will be primaried out next cycle. I wouldn't vote for a incumbent that did some of this crap.
