Didn't the trump administration cut the budget for the department which would've made sure a program for such things as the pandemic could be handled? I believe some of the medical equipment needed special handling to keep them viable which was not done (budget cuts). Anyone hear of the Ebola pandemic during Obama's term? It did come into the country and was stopped in its tracts. That's why no one heard of it.
Yes, the Ebola virus was stopped by Obama's health administration, but it is basically erroneous to compare Ebola with Covid. Ebola is NOT spread by aerosol contact but rather by direct bodily fluid contact. That kind of contact occurs much less between humans. It is also much more severe than Covid when you DO catch it and so it becomes clear fairly quickly when someone's bodily fluid might effect you. Simply being in the same household as another Covid-infected person creates potential spread that is not the case with Ebola. So the communication of Ebola, while significantly MORE dangerous, is much less likely to happen unless you intentionally submit yourself to it. Covid, while theoretically less fatal, creates much more communication and at the outset, before there was any kind of vaccination available, made it much deadlier in the general population.

What Obama put in place to help protect the population if a contagion entered our borders, tRump tore up the playbook soon after entering office.
