So 2.7 million pax a day with less than 2200 CV cases in the US. That works out to about 0.000814%. Seems just a tad low
of a percentage to shut down the airlines.

The airlines shutting down for 2-4weeks will only add to the hysteria.

exactly. Along with the CEO’s of Delta, United, and Disney. The head of the NCAA, NBA, and all other sports leagues, the head of Augusta National. All of whom likely voted for trump, and will again. Yep, they all decided to go along with the media conspiracy to get trump out of office. Ridiculous.

Trump just said additional restrictions are being announced soon.

Turn off the TV. Go for a walk. Read a book. This too shall pass.
they don’t have the ability to do that. It’s pure panic

Correct me if I’m wrong, but it appears the additional restrictions (as of right now) are Ireland and UK.

Why don't we look at the numbers after the pandemic is over not when it's in its infancy and doubling every few days eh?

If they were considering a 30 day shutdown... Seems it would be easy for the gov't to "bail out" airlines for a month... couple Billion dollars of aid to keep financials in order and everyone paid....

Wouldn't be too hard.. "Airline X, your revenue was $XX.xx last April, here you go, heres $XXX.xx million"

Sounds like it’s definitely a possibility now. And yes, if this happens, then absolutely they can help us out.

Close the borders and shut down all travel.
