You do realize doctors, the WHO and the CDC were advising against masks originally? The same "problem" of not recommending masks from the beginning happened in a lot of other countries.
I do think it was pitiful how masks were turned into a politician device, but this was the doing of both parties. Not just the "government".
As for taking the virus seriously, a travel ban with China was put in place fairly early and was criticized as being "racist".

And that it was an acknowledged mistake done under duress for the above? https://www.businessinsider.com/fauci-doesnt-regret-advising-against-masks-early-in-pandemic-2020-7 https://www.businessinsider.com/fauci-doesnt-regret-advising...
