Among other things, Rachel Maddow just had an AIDs atavist present putting his spin on the virus. One thing he brought up was this was not the first time an US administration at the top has heavily resisted action against an epidemic. In the 1980s the Reagan crew treated AIDs as a behavioral solvable disease that only effected the homosexual community which was rejected using tribal thinking.
This administration has its own non scientific reasons for not responding, but there is some degree of similarity.
The point he has made is that these days the deep state, the pharmaceutical companies, the universities, the medical communities, all know what to do. They need less to be told what to do. They have seen AIDS, Ebola, SARS, etc…. In recent administrations there has even been a group of specialists standing by waiting on the next outbreak.
But they do need funding to be made available, and are accustomed to somebody saying go. We badly botched the testing element, but there was a matter of fact assumption that somebody must be working on a vaccine?
They must be. Right?

That this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.
