Military preparing quarantine centers for coronavirus patients in US, Pentagon says
Eleven military bases near major airports in the United States are setting up quarantine centers for possible coronavirus patients, the Department of Defense said.
The Department of Health and Human Services asked the Pentagon for quarantine space in case beds fill up at other coronavirus centers around the country, according to a DOD statement.
The Pentagon already agreed to house up to 1,000 people for quarantine after they returned to the United States from areas with the virus, the Associated Press reports.

I don't know what to say here.
I could talk about how I think this is going to wreck Trump's economy, and have a great impact on the 2020 elections.
I could talk about how dangerous this is to a global economy.
But, I don't think that is really the story here.
The story is that we can clearly see this is most likely going to become a global pandemic, and that we will see forced quarantines in the US of massive amounts of the population.
