  The racism isn't even thinly veiled anymore...
context: Oh neat. 
  Just in time for Lunar New Years >
  
  This sounds very familiar >
  
  Well it is a yearly holiday >
  
  Maybe on the moon! >
  
  Lol I'll just wait here for the calls that Biden is a xenophobe and racist if they do this. ☺️ >
  
  Is it March of 2020 again? I'm not sure I can stomach living through those years again... >
  
  Always has been. >
  
  Still the same number of American pandemic deaths every week:
  /r/CoronavirusUSNotOver >
  
  Like, everyone:  "But Americans have COVID fatigue..."
  Smart people: "Um, better than Long-COVID chronic fatigue, brain fog, and heart failure, right?  Masks and vaccines aren't hard." >
  
  Not even Covid. For 2 covid years we haven’t had flue or cold. I am all for it. 
  Ppl should stop treating masks as “I am afraid” and do like Japanese - “I am wearing mask because IAM sick or feel under weather but have to travel  so I am sorry and I protect you” >
  
  That require 85%+ of Americans to treat America as something that they should take care of.
  Given how some of them treat reality, that's not going to work. >
  
  
  "On one flight, which landed at the city's Malpensa Airport on Boxing Day, 52% of passengers were found to be positive for Covid, la Repubblica reports."
  
  Why did we ever get rid of testing before travelling? This probably isn't even good for the Airlines aswell, as they'll have sick employees who can't work. >
  
  Business. The economy > everything else. >
  
  I don’t think you understand what is included in “the economy” if you differentiate it from “everything” >
  
  Should’ve already been put in place. This is ludicrous. >
  
  I don’t understand China here, they are at the beginning of a massive Covid wave and they now start to allow international travel for its citizens? 
  Something very sinister about this decision. >
  
  Make it look like everyone has the same problem to save face. >
  
  Well it’s simple, add the hurdles back to anyone who has been in China for the last 14 days >
  
  Yes but be sure to waste time thinking about it. 🙃 >
  
  “Considers”?!?!
  I'll go ahead and make the executive decision and say, put the restrictions on, ffs. >
  
  They probably put them back on after the first few thousand Chinese people landed >
  
  Wasn't this sort of thing considered racist three years ago? >
  
  You dont understand. If the Republicans do it, it's racist. If the democrats do it, it's a public safety issue. Repeat ad nauseum. >
  
  Wait I thought this was racist? Why would Joe Biden do this to these poor Chinese people? >
  
  CCP is calling it racist. >
  
  They locked out countries too. >
  
  It’s a rule for thee not a rule for me.  Standard operating procedure. >
  
  I seem to remember something like this in 2019 being called racist. I wonder what has changed. >
  
  But democrats are considering it now so it's not racist. >
  
  When trump wanted to do this, it was racist. What makes it acceptable now? >
  
  Um so we are still pretending we got shit under control here? lol. >
  
  There is enough in US. Just not to add more carriers >
  
  “Considers”? 🙄 Can we maybe just actually do something proactive before it’s too late to be useful? For once? >
  
  Should have been done in 2019 >
  
  The U.S. didn't have a president then. >
  
  It's not racist now because it's (D)ifferent >
  
  I mean you joke but it’s kinda true. When a republicans wants something done it’s typically from a place of malice, discrimination, and ignorance. I don’t mind saying it because they’ve consistently demonstrated this over the years. >
  
  we got enough covid over here no thanks >
  
  Considers?? WTF this is how we got Covid on our shores anyways.. We already have a surge going on here do we need to add more to that?? Fucking hell. >
  
  It's already here man. Covid started with 1 person. And that's all it took to cause a global pandemic. By the time you're sick, 100s of people could had been infected. By the time they're sick, 1000s. >
  
  Makes sense. Aren't they scrapping travel restrictions during record numbers? >
  
  Funny how Americans care about COVID all or a sudden. >
  
  Travel restrictions don’t work and the US already has endemic Covid proliferation.
  What does work is wearing a mask in public indoor spaces and getting vaccinated. >
  
  I think it sounds like a good idea >
  
  Hello what are you waiting for >
  
  Probably because they said it was a racist policy in the past, prompting the whole Pelosi in ChinaTown thing... >
  
  Please do! They started it all once, we don’t need it again. Only what is it really this time??? >
  
  Lol it never left. My child and I had covid last month. My friend has it right now. TONS of covid out here breh >
  
  Why the H are we letting anyone in with Covid!? >
  
  What's the point? COVID is in literally every country in the world. >
  
  Do you want more? >
  
  Its a racist policy against Asians. >
  
  Of course. Only PRC is allowed to restrict entry into country. It is a CCP system advantage. >
  
  Just ban Chinese people from traveling to all places. >
  
  Ah yes, let's consider them. But let's wait a while until some new mutant strains of covid come here. Cause, we just love doing everything ass backwards. On the flip side, any mutants that got out, are out already. By the time we ever seem to take action it's already too late.
  Best advise? Limit indoor activities, wear at least a kn95. Get your booster. Protect yourself. Cause no one else gonna. >
  
  Weird! Google says they only have ever had 1.91 million cases and 5,000 deaths! This can't be true
  Edit: /s FFS >
  
  With their track record, I'm sure the Chinese government is fully transparent so we have nothing to worry about. >
  
  Ready to suffer for two more years because of communist twats? >
  
  Consider what does that actually mean I'll think about it I'll get back to you I don't know yet well let me see. Not sure if this is 11th grade journalism or what they actually said. >
  
  Knowing what we now know about the chinese govt and their handling/mishandling/outright lying about covid 19 to allow travel without restriction FROM china is suicidal.I can't (and you shouldn't)believe we are going to allow this to happen again.
  I'm calling my congress critter and you should too. Trade and travel isn't a suicide pact.
