that's the problem, it can't be contained.  It's too prevalent for effective contact tracing, and especially so since the CDC isn't even attempting to.  Without effective contact tracing, for whatever reason, containment is a pipe dream

And the leftist media would go nuts and say we are stopping 'immigration' and preventing the Mexican border from operating as it does now in a very porous manner.

This political hot-potato would ensure our borders became even more porous. Not less...

I do not trust MSN or CNN too much (they lean too much to liberals), but this is interesting to cross reference with other sites:

I think you don't seem to understand what the US is doing to stop this....     We are stopping people coming from anywhere we know it's spreading and putting them into quarantine places for at least two weeks and they have to have two negative tests before they are released...    so we are kind of doing what you are asking....    and it is probably why it hasn't popped up here  more than it has.

But the chances of us keeping it out for ever is just not going to happen...   but we can stall it off long enough to understand how to treat it and not let it get to the point of overloading our medical system as it appears has happened in china....   but who knows what agenda China has in it's dealings, so we really can't compare us to them.

I have heard some Democrats hoping it will get away from us so it will hurt the economy and maybe stop the President from getting reelected in November...  might be worth loosing a few thousand people.....    Sick.
