Yeah, the entire US response has been completely confused and deeply incompetent. But I place blame at where the buck is supposed to stop. At the president's desk. Literally the first two words he ever used to describe the virus were "Democrat hoax" which are right in line with his basic approach to everything: politicize, divide, deny, and lie.

It wasn't some innocent misstep. He's sticking with the division and stoking hatred and reality denial....aww crap I am ranting.

Suffice is to say that CDC can be held culpable for some screwups but leadership from the President is something the country desperately needs.
