We just didn’t know how serious this would get. We had H1N1, swine flu, ebola, SARS, MERS, none got out of hand this crazy.

Our own president and task force kept on downplaying it for so long and giving us the wrong information. Even CDC was downplaying for a long time.

Perhaps this shows that industry experts, with skin in the game, are better at determining the relevant trends than the people and institutions you mention.
