Trump furious American Citizens infected with coronavirus allowed back in The United States
Feb 24, 2020 08:19:51 #
Trump had been briefed that the healthy U.S. passengers who spent weeks quarantined aboard the Diamond Princess cruise ship in Japan would be allowed to fly home on two chartered planes -- while those who were sick or infected would stay in Japan to prevent the spread of the deadly virus.
The president became "furious" with senior advisers after learning the 14 Americans who tested positive had been put on a plane with healthy passengers, according to The Washington Post. One official told the paper that the failure to inform Trump of the decision in advance of the plane's departure was a “big operational mistake.”
Trump complained that bringing home the infected Americans could damage the administration's response to the global health outbreak.
While the Americans evacuated from the ship were on buses on the tarmac in Tokyo, U.S. officials got the results back that 14 had tested positive for COVID-19 but had not yet shown symptoms. Officials made the decision to have them fly home anyway, but “isolated” from the other passengers on the plane.
“These individuals were moved in the most expeditious and safe manner to a specialized containment area on the evacuation aircraft to isolate them in accordance with standard protocol,” the State Department and Department of Health and Human Services said in a joint statement Monday.
The infected passengers were to be isolated for medical care upon arriving back in the United States."

In 2014, during an Ebola crisis in Africa, Mr. Trump, who was then a private citizen, demanded that the Obama administration cancel flights and bar anyone infected with the virus from entering the country — including American medical workers who had gone to Africa to help.
“KEEP THEM OUT OF HERE!”
He wrote in a July 31 tweet after learning that one American medical worker would be evacuated to Atlanta from Liberia.
“The U.S. cannot allow EBOLA infected people back,” Mr. Trump wrote on Twitter the next day, adding: “People that go to far away places to help out are great — but must suffer the consequences!”

No it's because he is a germaphobe and has no faith in the United States health care system.
Why would a US president refuse to allow a United States Citizen access to the healthcare system of the country they are a citizen of?

Not to mention he is a fool and a coward:
"2014 Donald Trump barfed out a tweet on Thursday in which he simultaneously stoked unnecessary fear of an Ebola outbreak in the United States and said that Americans abroad shouldn’t be allowed to get treatment in the U.S."

Yes but you quarantine them in the United States if they are US citizens; not in a foreign country.

Do you remember the fear that Trump caused during the Ebola problem?
The Attic here was full of Trump caused panic.

I agree with that, but don't let them in until you have it prepared. Also the incubation period is more than 14 days...............

Trump was fueling the panic not the president.
"In July 2014, as the largest Ebola outbreak in history was ravaging West Africa, Donald Trump took to Twitter to complain that two sick American health workers were being flown back to the United States for treatment.
“Ebola patient will be brought to the U.S. in a few days—now I know for sure that our leaders are incompetent,” wrote the future leader of free world. “KEEP THEM OUT OF HERE!”
Over the months that followed, Trump would tweet about the outbreak more than 50 times.
Trump’s social-media outbursts were among the earliest shots fired in the political war over Ebola.
The timing of the Ebola outbreak could not have been more propitious for Republicans, many of whom echoed Trump’s calls for a temporary travel ban.
In the run-up to the 2014 midterm elections, the specter of a lethal African virus being spread through the United States by migrants stoked fears not only among the GOP base, but also among many voters who leaned Democratic."
