For people thinking this is implausible; China had ventilation on its radar back in January. As did Hong Kong, Taiwan, South Korea, etc. It's *our* public health authorities & the WHO that's been way behind on this issue. Very plausible that Xi communicated such basics to Trump.

A good number of people in my mentions making similar claims... That airborne transmission was obvious as early as February! Along with people saying "everyone" knew of severity of the situation. It's *September* 2020, and the CDC *still* doesn't have guidelines for ventilation.pic.twitter.com/9eNyjNQWJh

I would like to banish "oh, you're surprised"; "everyone knows/knew this"; "it wouldn't make a difference" from our vocabulary. That savvy, cynical stance is, in effect, paralysis posing as sophistication.

My daughter was in S Korea telling us things that turned out to be true. She felt we weren't believing her. I feel awful now that I thought somehow she was wrong, things would be OK, America would have a plan. I've been a citizen since age 10 and I was wrong

You didn’t fail. Your efforts were why I stocked up by March 5 - and made sure my family was stocked up and settled then as well. I’m sure this applies to countless others. Thank you for your smart, sensible guidance - it’s been invaluable.

Thank you. I really started writing, hoping it would be useful like this. It has been frustrating, though. Yes, the administration has failed us. But we can still do what we can--or we should.

Re: publicatn date of Woodward's book I find it strange that so many Anti-Trump books are coming out just couple a couple of months before the election. Where were they before now? Why now for Woodward's book. Why now for all of them.

In mid February my husband and I were in Mexico visiting family, watching hordes of people disembark a cruise ship in Mazatlan. We knew then it would be bad. That ship ended up having an outbreak.
