- enraged_camel 7y agoYep, the Intelligence Community was sounding the alarm back in January. By February, all IC reports to the president warned of an imminent pandemic threat. Trump of course downplayed it and ignored them. edit: yep, go ahead and downvote. i'm sure the truth hurts.
- gwright 7y agoThis is wishful thinking. It is doubtful that there was even a concensus from public health officials 8-10 weeks ago. There are way too many people using what they know now to criticize decisions that were made 8 weeks ago when the information/evidence wasn't obvious. It still isn't clear to me if the severe economic shutdowns are going to not have secondary affects that are just as bad as the virus. I think we should all be a little more humble about what should have been done until we are on the other side of this crisis.
