So Dimsocialists, tell us again how Trump did nothing until it was too late. One here claims he did nothing until March 19.

Despite criticisms at the time, the world's foremost immunologist confirmed that the Trump administration's decision to restrict travel from China in January slowed the spread of the Wuhan flu in the United States.

Yeah. So? WTF does that have to do with my OP other than pointing out Trump reacted with a travel ban just days after it showed up in the US?
And then wasted the next two months telling us it was a hoax.
Them's the facts kiddo.
Link?
Up yours nostrils. It's common knowledge.
No, he didn't call the virus a hoax. The media reporting was. They reported 2 million would die, but of course as usual. They were wrong.
They were not wrong, even Trump's own experts say that many would have died if not for the extraordinary measures that have been put into place.
You are like the idiot whose doctors says "you need to lose 30 pounds or you will have a heart attack" and so you lose 40 pounds and then say the doctor was wrong because you did not have a heart attack.
Okay dealing with you loons. You saying Trump handled this great, or this is his Katrina?
right now somewhere in the middle. He wasted a lot of time at the beginning pretending it was not going to happen but he is doing a pretty good job now of trying to catch up.
He stopped travel from china while the democrats were trying to impeach him. Lol
and that was it...he bought us some time and then wasted that time telling us it was all good and everything was under control....just imagine if had gone to 3M in Jan and said "we are going to need a shit ton of mask in the near future" 3M would have been all over it thanks to the increased profit. But he did not do that till Mid-March.
That one right move does not remove the fact we sat in our thumbs for the next month and a half
You are taking today's knowledge and blasting Trump for not seeing the future.
Which Dimsocialist was calling for those things back then?
Names and links please.
Bet the dissolved pandemic task force would have seen it coming.
Quit lying. Just quit. You know it is a lie yet keep repeating it. I will be glad to go get the links for you I have posted previously , if you’d like.
Your links are bullshit. He took a dedicated taskforce that we NEEDED and rolled it in under a buncha other crap and it got deprioritized. This disaster is, at it's root, his fault. And he knows it too. That's why he's so desperately trying to find someone else to blame.
You know it too. You know you're in denial.
No, your lies about it are bullshit-
No, he did not. The ebola pandemic team funding expired. Quit lying.

AP FACT CHECK: Democrats distort coronavirus readiness
PolitiFact - NC Democrat says Trump is cutting the CDC budget by 80 percent Shows,it’s false
The broader point about there being “nobody here” to coordinate the response sells short what’s in place to handle an outbreak.
The public health system has a playbook to follow for pandemic preparation — regardless of who’s president or whether specific instructions are coming from the White House. Those plans were put into place in anticipation of another flu pandemic, but are designed to work for any respiratory-borne disease.
Among the health authorities overseeing the work are Dr. Anne Schuchat, CDC’s principal deputy director and a veteran of previous outbreaks, and Dr. Anthony Fauci, NIH’s infectious disease chief who has advised six presidents.
“The CDC’s response has been excellent, as it has been in the past,” said John Auerbach, president of the nonpartisan Trust for America’s Health, which works with government at all levels to improve the nation’s response to high-risk health crises. Some Democrats have charged that Trump decimated the nation’s public health leadership, but Auerbach said CDC’s top scientific ranks have remained stable during the past three years.

Check out the act the replaced the last Act for pandemics passed in 2019. Makes for stronger support and response.
S.1379 - 116th Congress (2019-2020): Pandemic and All-Hazards Preparedness and Advancing Innovation Act of 2019
Pandemic and All-Hazards Preparedness and Advancing Innovation Act of 2019
You are wasting your time.
Crepitus knows he is lying, he just doesn’t care.
I am not lying. Yer little butt-buddy moved the goalposts with his last post. I never claimed anything but dissolving the pandemic task force, which it true.
You dumb-asses can't even win an argument on a discussion board without cheating.
Nothing was dissolved. That is a lie that has been debunked long ago.
No. Excuses have been made, deflection issued, and tantrums thrown, but no debunking has taken place.
Facts are facts, Nostrils.
Get used to it.
Actually it has been debunked. You keep on with your denial. Oh, and tell me what ebola and covid-19 have in common while we are at it.
Nope. It has not. It has been denied and deflected, but it has not been debunked. It has not been debunked because it is true.
But you keep trying to deny it of that makes you feel better.
Just quit. This act actually strengthened the previous pandemic response.
On June 24, 2019 Congress passed and the President signed the Pandemic and All-Hazards Preparedness and Advancing Innovation Act (PAHPAIA),
Public Law No. 116-22. The 2019 law amends the Public Health Service Act to build on work the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has undertaken to advance national health security. Amendments include enhancing the authorities of the Secretary, Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response, and the Director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to prepare for and respond to public health emergencies. PAHPAIA authorizes new public health and medical preparedness programs for regional health care preparedness and military and civilian partnerships; reauthorizes funding and enhances authorities for the
Hospital Preparedness Program, the Public Health Emergency Preparedness Cooperative Agreement program and other public health and medical preparedness programs.
PAHPAIA also authorizes uses for the Public Health Emergency Fund when the Secretary declares a
public health emergency or determines that there is a
significant potential for a public health emergency and authorizes advance funding for buying medical countermeasures under the Project BioShield Act and to funding to support advanced research and development of potential medical countermeasures.
PAHPAIA also amends the Federal Food, Drug & Cosmetic Act to enhance the authority of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to support rapid responses to public health emergencies.
Major Program Areas
Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA), part of the HHS Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response, was established to aid in securing our nation from chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) threats, as well as from pandemic influenza (PI) and emerging infectious diseases (EID). BARDA supports the transition of medical countermeasures such as vaccines, drugs, and diagnostics from research through advanced development towards consideration for approval by the FDA and inclusion into the Strategic National Stockpile. BARDA’s support includes funding, technical assistance and core services, ranging from a clinical research organization network to Centers for Innovation in Advanced Development and Manufacturing, and a fill-finish manufacturing network. To-date, BARDA has supported 42 FDA approvals for products addressing CBRN, PI, and EID threats.
Our mission is accomplished through successful public-private partnerships with industry to share risk, improve efficiency and accelerate development all while sustaining a marketplace that guarantees continued access to countermeasures vital to our national security.
