It's damn near official: the US is the epicenter of this pandemic, in more ways than one.
The US is waging economic warfare against
Iran, Iraq,
Venezuela and Cuba as they struggle to contain the pandemic in their nations, even as
Cuba sends doctors to assist efforts in Italy and elsewhere in Europe. The US has also attempted to block delivery of masks and respirators to
Barbados, of all places.
The US Federal government is seizing shipments of masks and ventilators destined for hospitals in
Massachusette, New Jersey and
other states. The Governor of New York is
still cutting Medicaid funds in the middle of a pandemic — and, of course, the Democratic Party is insisting on dragging voters to the polls in person for the
Wisconsin Primary, despite the horrorshow in
Illinois.
Acts of war,
piracy, deprivation, fraud?
It should be pretty clear by now who the
real "sick man" is on this planet.
