I’ve expressed doubt recently that we are really prepared for a pandemic.

I think that there is no question about it - we aren't prepared. At this point the question is, are we going to have one here? Even if we don't, if continues to progress in China as it seems to be doing, the economic repercussions may well be off the charts. I don't think the average American has even a rudimentary grasp of how much of our lifeblood manufacturing is gone. It is frightening.

All the more reason to vote for President Trump.

A Brit family that I’ve been following - whose relatives infected with Corona virus are stuck in a Japanese hospital - have said: Trump seems able to ‘make things happen’.

Very very true!
There is a 17 day turnaround from the field to the shelf. Logistics and processing would be out the window if such a catastrophe took hold here.
It is very frightening!
