The UK has more cases than Washington State, which shut down schools & crowds.
...2 times as many as NY, 4 times Mass., both states of emergency.
As many as Denmark, which has shut down.

So why did Trump exempt the UK from the European travel ban?

Do we even need to ask?
2/ My main point: We have so many uncontained outbreaks, it seems late, convenient & misplaced use of resources to ban (blame) Europe when containing/mitigation starts at home.
And if Europeans have been traveling to UK for a month, what's the point of this ban or this exemption?
3/ This EU travel ban misses something our Canadian family & friends - many health professionals - understood immediately:

The US is in fullblown outbreak, and we are a bigger threat to other countries than they are to us.

The plan is xenophobia because there is no plan.
