we would not have to be making vaccines if Trump hadn't fired or dumped all the people,
protocols, and materials that President Obama had in place that would have stopped the pandemic.


The entire world suffered more than it needed to because of the destruction of the teams and resources that were removed, undercut, and ignored. The US and everyone on the planet would never have been so devastated by this virus if trump had just left the resources in place and let people do their jobs. There still might have been sporadic outbreaks worldwide and perhaps a need for vaccines, but not under pressure like this. Not even close.
