- Izkata 6y agoIf you drop the "coronavirus" requirement, at least fourth - there was also the 2009 Swine Flu pandemic.
- andi999 6y agoI believe the 2009 swine flu is responsible for this times weak response. I remember last time a lot of fear was stoked up in the media and a huge amount of tamiflu bought by the government, and almost nothing happened in the end, apart from public scepticism and unhappiness about the squandering of funds. I think politics didnt want to repeat the mistake
