And yes, I heard it first on FOX news.

gomoho: I just came on and was catching up on what other posters wrote. You are spot on. In fact i believe the military personnel should have had the right to volunteer. After all in real combat when an officer knows its a likely suicide mission he asks for volunteers. the medical people volunteered and they are in the thick of it and better than 250 have been contaminated. These folks for the sake of their families and secondly for the rest of us should gladly accept 21 days quarantine.
As to why the White House won't invoke a travel ban? the worse kept secret for why is because White House is afraid that it would affect mid term elections. Why? For fear of being accused of racial profiling There I said it
