(11,949 posts)Does cutting off travel at this point hurt? No. But it does nothing to mitigate the situation we find ourselves. A gesture that does not help but is being done to make it look like action is being taken is minimizing the crisis.
Since Europe has a much better grip on their total numbers they should cut off travel from here. Which Im sure is only hours away. But the dipshit never considered that.
