Aminado si President Donald Trump na mas marami nang napatay sa kanilang bansa ang coronavirus pandemic kumpara sa naranasan nitong mga pag-atake.
Ayon sa Republican president, itinuturing nito bilang isang gyera ang laban ng Amerika kontra COVID-19. “We went through the worst attack we have ever had in our country. This is really the worst attack we have ever had. This is worse than Pearl Harbour. This is worse than the World Trade Center. There has never been an attack like this,”
Maiiwasan daw sana ang ganitong problema kung sa simula pa lamang ay nagawa nang pigilan ng China ang pagkalat ng virus.
“Hey, it has killed more people than Pearl Harbour. And it has killed more people than the World Trade Center. The World Trade Center was close to 3,000. Well, we are gonna beat that by many times, unfortunately. So, yeah. We view it as a war,” saad ni Trump.
“This is a mobilisation against a war. In many ways, it is a tougher enemy. We do very well against the visible enemies. It is the invisible enemy. This is an invisible enemy. But we’re doing a good job,”
Sa ngayon kasi ay pumalo na ng 72,000 Amerikano ang namatay dahil sa COVID-19 at 1,263,092 na ang infected.
Kung magugunita, inatake noong 1941 ng Japan ang Pearl Harbor naval base ng US sa Hawaii kung saan 2,403 Americans ang namatay.
Halos 3,000 katao naman ang nasawi noong i-hijack ng 19 na kalalakihan ang isang US commercial airplane noong September 11, 2001 o mas kilala bilang 9/11 attack.
