They already are, you just don't understand, they mutate all the time.
Maybe we can stop this one before it mutates into a fast mutator like
the flu or some more deadly strain. It is a whole different class of
virus fromt he flu.

sick people.


Opposite.* Apollo astronauts were quarantined as an example

geez ... they were a tiny subset of the population who were all in OUTER
SPACE TOGETHER!


The point is, they were HEALTHY yet quarantined. Opposite of what you
said about sick people. Learn and move on.


How quickly we forget. They were quarantined because the medical
people thought they MIGHT be sick, with an extraterrestrial disease.

If we had done that with everyone who crossed a border, like the
Chinese did, we would have stopped the virus but the snowflakes lost
their mind when Trump wanted to just stop people from China.


Thanks for mentioning the extraterrestrial disease thing. I thought it
was obvious, but guess it wasn't.

Which disease is extraterrestrial? I missed that.

Maybe you are just too young to remember but the fear of an
extraterrestrial disease was a thing when we first went to the moon.

Ok, thanks. The part I missed was the reference to the moon landing. Thanks
for clearing it up.
