What percentage of us had access to intelligence information saying how bad the situation could truly be?
What percentage of us have jobs in which we are responsible for other people's lives and the stability of our countries?

You cannot compare the public's reaction to government officials' reactions. It's their job to be on top of this stuff, react appropriately and guide the public through times of crisis like this. That's why we call them leaders.
