More important than cheap drugs, the decision NOT to use the cheap, effective WHO tests so that Big Pharma could profit off an exclusive rights "Made in America" test, cost the USA more than 3 months time in having a quick efficient test available. If the USA had tested everyone coming in to the country from Europe and China, you could have cut this virus off before it got into the country.
Instead, calling Americans home from China ACCELERATED the spread of the disease because 40,000 people came into the country with being tested. Canada tested everyone coming in from China and other hotspots and cut the virus off at the knees. But within 2 weeks of calling Canadians home from the USA and closing the border, the virus was out of control because there was no testing except at the airports, and people didn't quarantine as requested.
Trump's decision to sell ALL of America's stockpile of PPE to China in January (more profit for Big Pharma), without keeping enough for American hospitals was also a bad mistake. Trump was more concerned that American corporations profit off the pandemic than he was about keeping Americans from getting sick.
