Mexico Is Considering Closing Its Border With The U.S. To Slow The Spread Of The Covid-19 Coronavirus



Daily Mail: Mexico is considering closing its border to stop Americans bringing coronavirus into its country as US case count passes 2,000

* There are more than 2,000 cases of coronavirus in the US now with 43 dead
* In Mexico, there have only been 16 confirmed cases and no reported deaths
* Health Minister Hugo Lopez-Gatell said: 'Mexico wouldn't bring the virus to the United States, rather the United States would bring it here'
* Trump has boasted that the situation in the US would be worse if it weren't for his tough stance on the border
* From midnight on Friday, flights from Europe to the US will be suspended

For once, the conversation over closing the US-Mexico border is being driven b Mexican health officials who say they are considering shutting out Americans to keep coronavirus out of their country.

There are currently more than 2,000 cases of the virus in the US and it is spreading rapidly. Forty-three people have died from it.

By contrast in Mexico, there have only been 16 confirmed cases and no deaths.

At a press conference on Friday, health minister Hugo Lopez-Gatell said: 'Mexico wouldn't bring the virus to the United States, rather the United States would bring it here.

WNU Editor: The concerns from the Mexic'sHealth Minister are justified. The U.S. is shutting down right now, with restaurants, hotels, and other labour intensive occupations being impacted directly. Instead of staying home for the next few months, I would not be surprised if many who are from Mexico may make the decision to return to Mexico until this is all over instead of staying home.

Update: A widespread outbreak of coronavirus in Mexico is 'inevitable,' health officials say (Business Insider/Mexico News Daily).

And it will be harder for them to come back with the wall.

And wages will go up.

Work at meat packing plants used to be a solid middle class jobs.

With illegal aliens it has lowered wages to working poor, which is how the Dems love their voters.

" blaming one party is a fool's way"

What part of "Democrat and RINO donors" did you not understand?

Maybe you could have done some research.

Maybe you could have asked.

Maybe you could have known from experience.

Maybe you could have asked for a percentage.

Maybe you could have asked about the type of capitalism.

oligarchic capitalism,
state-guided capitalism (authoritarian),
big-firm capitalism, and
entrepreneurial capitalism

Leftist are always fond of saying that socialism works it hasn't been tried right. Just give us another chance.

If you are a STEM major instead of a fruit cake, pound cake, or dildo you could have asked about the system boundaries.

If Trump was not under attack 24/7 there are some Republican senators that need to be recalled or primaried, but the legacy media, the propaganda arm of the Democrat Party and the oligarchy behind the DNC have been sucking up all the oxygen like a firestorm.

Well Bob has not responded.

Just as well, because Joe Biden has appointed Zeke Emmanuel as his corona czar. Zeke's position is that if you have lived to 75, you have lived long enough.

So, if Biden wins the presidency, I would hide, if I were 75.

Shades of Logan's Run.
