Nine questions Trump must answer (a thread):

Why don't we have a map of where the foci of the virus are exponentially expanding?

Why haven't the army corps been mobilized to set up quarantine units for Americans stricken in cities with high incidents of the virus?
Why aren't we building, like China did in Wuhan, new prefabricated 1000 bed hospitals in the 15 largest U.S. cities to deal with the massive numbers of people that are inevitably going to need them?

Why are ventilator machine factories not on 24/7 production regimes, right now?
Why aren't ICU's being set up in every hospital at a rapid pace, right now?

Why is the government not purchasing tens of thousands of RVs to be driven to wherever the need for isolation units will arise?
Why aren't factories in overdrive, producing full anti-virus suits and masks for our frontline health workers who are already sickening and dying as I write?
Why aren't we isolating ourselves—as a nation—to flatten the upward curve of the pandemic to help our already overwhelmed hospital workers?

Incredibly, Starbucks and other F&B corporations are still open.

This is not the time for harsh capitalism. We need to focus on people.
And lastly:

Why doesn't every worker now have emergency paid sick leave?
