Since then counties have collaborated to mitigate horrible epidemics.
When the Coronavirus first broke out there was lag of wonderment what was happening.
China lagged behind and then implemented very draconian quarantines.
Most counties did their due diligence to contain the virus.
Some with strict quarantining as well.
The US got due warning, instead lagged behind and dismissed the seriousness other counties were experiencing.
The known death rate is three times that of known Influenza and other pandemic illnesses.
It is expected to go higher.
Plus there is no antidote developed and that is a year away.
After three-four months warning we are only doing targeted quarantines.
Companies are sending employees home, public events and schools are being cancelled.
Our blissful days are going to be interrupted to save lives.
Unengaged Media and Central direction is fortunately being picked up and Lead up by others.
All the US and International organizations who are experienced in this problem are coming together developing plans.
Recommendations are being listened to in Hearings despite the pushback.
Horribly the Agency designed to deal with pandemics was shut down in 2018.
