Exactly this. Covid19 is a godsend.
The US has a government agency called BARDA (Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority), that estimated at some point that there are 10000 gaps worldwide when it comes to pandemic prevention. And to close these gaps one would need a budget of $10BN/year. They didn't get that.
Now, after a few trillion down the drain, I think they'll get it.
