They had him from the start. Only if he had weathered the attacks for being a racist and shut down all incoming flights quicker than he did AND overruled the CDC by insisting they get the WHO test rather than screw him over by futzing with a flawed test of their own, could he have stopped the “not doing enough” narrative. But then they would have had him for overreacting and being a despot.
Yes, I still would have gone that route, I say from the comfort of my bunker, but he at least is in his bag coordinating with the titans of industry now, etc.
Possible Solution:
Shut all nonessential industries down for 14 days... (maximum incubation time).
After shutdown open all companies.
Each company has people stationed at work place entrance taking temperatures. Those with a temperature are taken to medical care facilities - proactive care reduces extreme care - saving supplies for those who really need them.
Grocery stores and pharmacies also take temperatures of all people entering.
This saves lives AND the economy. It’s a modified Singapore system...
