>the overwhelming sentiment I've been getting from the memeplex is that this situation is entirely the fault of Trump, when he fired Obama's pandemic team. Als

  Of course, but if we're seeking the truth, Donald Trump isn't a good place to start. Dependence on <x> (where <x> could be China or many other things) has been an obvious risk across numerous dimensions for a very long time now. Many of these ideas have been discussed here, although not in a manner befitting for the gravity of the matter. That even on HN we are often unable to engage in unbiased, purely rational discussion has been another big systemic risk that I have been banging the drum about for months. It makes a person start to wonder: what will it take for people to wake up? Maybe it isn't even possible?
