I agree. Though Trump can't bury the number of deaths. They're too large to call flu. Pobeka Mar 2020 #3

They just aren't testing for it. Even deaths will be attributed to the flu since tests aren't available.

And trump will just bury the numbers when testing is available. We will never know.

His failure to handle this like a rational, caring human being is his undoing.

I can only hope a lot more people will begin to see the paralles in his views on toxifying our air, water, food and heating the climate in the same light.
