In January and February, a group of former public health and national security officials privately encouraged Trump administration officials to heed warnings of an impending disaster.

President George W. Bush didn't WARN US about the SARS Outbreak in 2003.
2005: That's FAKE NEWS
In the United States, President Trump should be held partially responsible for all the deaths from COVID-19 as a direct result of his handling of this pandemic. Surviving family members need to start a class-action lawsuit against Trump. I think Trump is VERY evil!!!
I swear I hate Trump. I hate Bolton. Over 140,000 dead in the U.S.
I'm sorry but I think Jonathon Karl seems like a kiss-ass, nonconfrontational reporter who lets Trump get by with flat-out lies, gross mis-statements, & dangerous mis-information. From what I have seen, it has been female reporters who confront Trump and call his bluff.
Can't believe I'm saying this but RESPECT to Bush for thinking ahead on this. He passed it along to Obama but Trump dropped the ball BIG TIME.
This is NOT on President Trump. This is complete BS communist Democratic Party did this.
This is one of the few times that I agree with Trump. He knows that this 'plandemic' is a hoax, but is being overrun by the media, which, almost all of it , is run by the same cartel that is promoting the scam. The figures they are putting out on deaths from Covid19 are rigged, phony; they are calling all deaths as due to Covid19. I would like to see Trump kicked out of office, but he's right, I believe, on this.
January banned travel???
Idiots call it the CCP virus and the biggest idiot calls it Kung Flu virus. Can't fix stupidity but you can educate yourself.
US is ready to torture and murder innocent not save lives.
Dr Ali Khan your so very right ,, the blood is on Trump's hands . be safe out there .
Can we nuke china?
The volume for this video is so unbalanced. The clip itself is low in volume. The end clip is so loud. This needs to be fixed. This happens on quite many of these. C'mon #ABCnews.
I want to be in the Trump ADMIN, what what why not me he needs another person of color in his ADMIN he only has one and Carson doesn't know where his car is parked.
Trump's China travel "ban" wasn't a ban at all. It only prohibited NON-U.S Citizens from travelling to the U.S., and then, only those who weren't immediate family of U.S. Citizens. It's now known that around 40,000 people floooded back onto the U.S.
We are going to do just fine, only have one person and it`s going away just like a miracle. WOW and now there is 150,000.00 dead thanks to trump. Hopefully in November there will be a miracle that trump and his enablers will be gone
I still find this so incredibly hard to understand how the trump administration bungled this so horribly. The self obsessed trump world has done nothing…but harm Americans and help Putin destroy our country. Despicable.
CDC blew it too there was already a working test that could have sent out. But NOO they wanted to build there own testing kit which cold time and lives. Along with jackass Bolton
We were told that when you are young in a village where you have to govern, you should never ever kill the Oldest of the village . This is because they know the secret to fight outside terrorists.
Trump and and his disciples did cleaned up all Obama and Biden administration and vetoed. Now we are facing the consequences of Trump's immature decision. My God help !!
Great idea John Bolton! Not!
US did miss the mark by not acting fast enough in January…
Thank goodness for President Bush. I am sure President Obama is grateful for Bush’s incite and courage.
Yale epidemiologist says Hydroxychloroquine could save 100,000+ lives: https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/yale-epidemiologist-says-hydroxychloroquine-could-save-up-to-100k-lives-if-used-for-coronavirus .,.,
#TRUMPVIRUS
In the name of politics sacrificing the lives of their citizen. Bureaucracy at its best.
George bush did a good job in funding the CDC and having a response team ready for Obama when the swine flu and Ebola virus hit. George bush and Obama where good presidents.
This is what happens when you don't have a centrally managed public health system, welcome to American Plutocracy
I read all these comments and they scare me. Remember all these facts when you vote. Trump didn't manifest himself, HE WAS VOTED IN. The USA is no longer the world leader in anything good, "America is First" in ALL the wrong ways.
People are dying like fruit flies and Trump is only comforted in the juvenile taunt of "China Flu".
I called for the quarantine of the usa on Jan. 24th, 2020
Imo, Dr's Fauci & Redfield both ought to be relieved of their duties.
Check the comments of my facebook post. Check the edit history.

Bible noted that
Numbers 14:37
these men who were responsible for spreading the bad report about the land were struck down and died of a plague before the Lord.
Vote them all out. 150,000+ American lives lost. Our government has proven they don't care about us. 600$ a week is too much to pay for a life. How sick is that?
So many clues and the handwriting on the wall. And Trump turns away from the facts. For his own politico gains, Now we have Trump doubling down from his fears of being wrong and his bruised ego.
CANT WAIT FOR TRUMP VS BIDEN DEBATE = INSANE VS DEMENTIA ðŸ˜ÂÂ
I thought he said China is the reason we have the highest number of deaths in the world
This administration is incompetent!!! One Hundred and Fifty Thousand American People Deaths so far.
Trump and the fascist right let the virus in and said it was a hoax for months while it spread.
In fact, Trump did and is doing the same thing as the Chinese government did. But they denied it only in the beginning. They only kept a lid on it from november till january. Trump is still downplaying the virus, still not doing anything to keep it under controll. If you compare the death toll between China and the US, the US failed miserably due to this president.
The virus comes from the Sun
Covid 19 is produced by bats, bats can't introduce the virus to humans. This virus was manipulated by ccp laboratory to infect humans.
What I don't get is how some so-called Christians, in support of Trump, won't wear face coverings. Mark 12:31 – Love your neighbor as yourself (well, your neighbor benefits if you mask up); Matt. 4:7 – Don't test God (acting as if you're being strong and trusting in God by not masking up belies not testing God); 1 Cor. 10-12 don't stumble/hurt others weaker than yourselves. It goes on and on. Scripture is filled with directives to put other people first. Trump et al, put themselves, their party, and their re-election efforts first.
bunch of malarky
In January I started to check out what and how American leader will be handling this ,thinking I would get extra info and that America will exit with a success/ containment faster then others, compare to my country. It was 3 months ago tht our covid19 infection reached 10 person and still lower.Kind of disappointed with America.
Governors and mayors are responsible for there states.
THE FLU STILL KILLED MORE PEOPLE!
And the misinformation CONTINUES!!!! Why are you people KILLING people? The health leaders MISLED the President, who was advising him????? ????? There’s the evil. Ask the CDC, Surgeon General, and WHO … why did these leaders … MISLEAD EVERYONE! Too MUCH DISINFORMATION from them!!! You too.

F Ron deathsentence!
The first estimations were in the millions of deaths. I guess trump did do a good job.
democrats & media socialist are all about…Pleasure,
Power, & Avoidance of Responsibility…pathetic life principles they believe,
practice, & bow down to. One more TRUTH…there all LESS THAN NOTHING.
Trump failed this country in every way during this pandemic. He mismanaged this pandemic and tens of thousands of Americans have died needlessly because of his inaction. Trump is human garbage and he needs to be held responsible for his negligence. Vote him out in November and demand Biden not pardon him. Trump needs to go to jail.
