Only one person in the United States died from Ebola after traveling from West Africa to Dallas, Texas. After the swine flu epidemic, which cost about 1200 American lives, Obama saw the danger, his administration sat up a White House Pandemic response team, which had clinics worldwide, including the area of China where Covid 19 originated. In 2014 during the Ebola outbreak, They helped create 15 treatment centers in that region, provided supplies, and conducted aggressive contact tracing to limit its spread beyond Western Africa. To help the incoming administration be better prepared to fight future pandemics, officials under President Obama took what they learned from these battles and prepared a 69-page playbook, written by Obama’s National Security Council, which detailed strategies for responding to a potential pandemic. Outgoing Obama administration officials briefed Trump’s top aides on the potential dangers of a pandemic. But the Trump administration cut the response teams out of the 2014 budget, then ignored the playbook Instead, spending weeks downplaying the virus, which they knew about in late December, spouting rampant misinformation and contradicting their own medical and scientific advisors. They wasted nearly two months needed to bolster the federal stockpile of critically needed supplies and equipment. By then, it was too late. Trump likes naming things after himself. This is one he has truly earned— The Trump Plague.
