@RonFilipkowski - COVID-19 is the Black Swan for 2020/21/22. Plainly Joe Biden got us going..
Thing is, back in 2018 Trump had the National Security Council anti-pandemic management team eliminated. And all their projects.
Crazy bad. #Sabotage

The system we lost in 2018 would have responded automatically beginning 12/31/2019:
-- Border quarantine
-- National Tracking Corps
-- EMT enhancements
-- Antiviral support
-- Positive pressure PPE for hospitals
Also liaison positions to National Guard and the Agencies.

This Eisenhower-to-2018 system came over from SEATO in Asia.
Enhancements were added steadily. Same for renamings and false claims of ground-up reinvention.
The same basic system has Asia under 150 deaths-per-million today.
USA would have fewer than 50,000 COVID-19 deaths.

@therealroseanne -- A real problem: COVID-19 in China became a regional emergency 31-December-2019. Then national 21-January-2020.
In America the federal system (from 1955) had been deactivated in 2018.
Foreign Policy got off this extended objection:

The system we lost in 2018 would have responded automatically:

-- Antiviral/antibiotic support
-- Positive pressure PPE for hospitals
Also liaison positions manned to serve National Guard and the Agencies.

This Eisenhower-to-2018 system came over in a barebones version. Then enhancements were added in just about every Administration.
And each renaming was billed as a ground-up reinvention.
Today in Asia that's 144 deaths-per-million.
For the US: under 50,000 COVID-19 deaths.

@TheRickyDavila In May 2018 Democratic Senators complained that Trump had used Bolton to remove leaders from the federal pandemic response team.
Soon forgotten.
Today ??? Until then the US had a top-tier system.
Trump degraded it to Worst in the World.

Ebola stayed away in 2018.
SARS-CoV-2 COVID-19 makes up for it.
The federal system had been implemented originally, basically in 1955. A gift from Eisenhower's SEATO alliance. Works best-of-show versus COVID.
Eastern Asia = 144 deaths-per-million
Trumped USA = 2,364 dpm

What Trump had Bolton eliminate:
-- The top manager, Adm. Riemer
-- Non-military staff
-- Liaison positions for Nat'l Guard and Agencies
Together with their projects:
-- Border quarantine
-- Nat'l Tracking Corps
-- Antiviral/antibiotic support
-- Positive pressure PPE
-- The top manager, Adm. Riemer
-- Non-military staff
-- Liaison positions for Nat'l Guard and Agencies

@Comey -- In May 2018 Democratic Senators sent complaints that Trump had used Bolton to remove the leaders of the federal pandemic response system.
Soon forgotten.
Today we know that the US had a top-tier system. Degraded by Trump to the Worst in the World.

The federal system had been implemented originally, very basically in 1955. A gift from Eisenhower's SEATO alliance, based on fighting plague & dengue.
Eastern Asia = 144 deaths-per-million
Trumped USA = 2,364 dpm

@davidhogg111 -- Go on offense = risk being a target for threats, possible vendetta actions
For example, threats still cover up a gross Trump misfeasance 2018 - 2020.
He feared bad press if Ebola made the jump.
So he dumped federal pandemic response on the hapless states.

Ebola never got here. SARS-CoV-2 COVID-19 makes up for its absence.
The system Trump had John Bolton destroy had been implemented originally, very basically in 1955. A gift from Eisenhower's SEATO alliance.

Trumped:

Americans take at face value the claim opioid settlements will provide justice for victims & necessary funding for addiction treatment
Despite what media & politicians may say,
that isnt how this works

A repeat of the largest settlement in US history,
the 1998 Tobacco Master Settlement in which 98% of the funds ended up in states general budgets

@pweiser someone is feeding you false stats
"70 to 80% of those now using heroin became addicted to pills first"
where are you pulling that stat out of

The best case that I can find is a study of teens that found 86% correlation with NON-MEDICAL USE of prescription drugs
And that is outlier study

For one thing, exposure is the most salient factor for addiction,
another is this line in ur article:
"The opioid epidemic is 25 years in the making."
U are seriously saying the opioid crisis started in 1996? The death toll didn't begin til 2011
