šŸ”„Because of the high tariffs on medical products, orders were reduced in hopes that Trumpā€™s idiotic trade war might end and they could purchase without the increased costšŸ˜· wsj.com/articles/u-s-tā€¦
šŸ¦ On February 29th the @Surgeon_General put out a frantic tweet for the public to ā€œSeriously people- STOP BUYING MASKS!ā€ INSTEAD of blaming Trumpā€™s tariffs for causing shortages, they switched the blame to the public for buying masks at @HomeDepotšŸ¤Ø
šŸ¤”In China, everyone was required to wear a mask. They were arrested if they didnā€™t wear one.. masks are worn in the Netherlands, Italy, Iran, South Korea...

@CDCgov While I wait for more info to develop in the coming days, make sure to follow @JaneLytv's fantastic coverage of the misinformation that is spreading:
@CDCgov @JaneLytv This is absolutely untrue and there is no reporting to validate it. What is happening in Wuhan is not related to a biological weapon, or a human-caused accidental release, and this emergent reporting of a Chinese national being removed from a Canadian lab is in no way related.

@CDCgov @JaneLytv This is trash reporting that is by definition fake news. The Wuhan coronavirus was not released by a lab, and there is no evidence to in any way suggest that. washingtontimes.com/news/2020/jan/ā€¦

Itā€™s probably a good time to remember that the 2002 SARS outbreak killed 774 people across 37 countries and it had a 10% mortality rate. This one looks less deadly, but also looks ripe to ā€” and actively is ā€” going global. on.ft.com/2u6G7zV
Umm, any of y'all have room in your bunker? The Chinese government was withholding the severity of this outbreak & transmission capability, and the number of coronavirus cases has explodedšŸ˜·

Going after #Trump? Evidence from the #tradewar. This is a brief thread describing a new paper that it is joint work with Carlo Schwarz @Warwick_Econ PhD student (going on the market this year). The paper circulates as @cepr_org - ungated WP ssrn.com/abstract=33490ā€¦
The question we ask is quite simple: were the retaliation measures triggered by China, the #EU, and the #NAFTA against Trump's tariffs politically targeted? We study the trade escalation triggered by US steel tariffs and various #Section301 #tariffs.
Interestingly, this is the first trade dispute in a long time that actually escalated to that level. The last case that came close was also the case of steel tariffs in the early 2000s -- but then retaliation measures, while being threatened, were never triggered as US caved in.

"Trump has used Harley-Davidson as an example of a US business that is being harmed by trade barriers. Yet Harley has warned consistently against tariffs, saying they would negatively impact sales"

Harley, hit by tariffs, shifts some production overseas apnews.com/6c8942f7363743ā€¦
Important issue highlighted by @riotwomennn: are tariff exemptions determined by bribes?

Corker: "22,000 companies have asked for exemptions.There is no basis to deal with them.Ā Are they going to grant these exclusions based on political contributions?"
