Maybe he's watching old videos of himself telling everyone not to panic about the H1N1 flu outbreak in 2009-10 where 61 million Americans were infected and 13,000 died. His advice back then was wash your hands, eat well and get plenty of rest. Just like today.
And after all the equipment was used up during Obamas H1N1 epidemic in 2009-2010, the CDC did not replace it. However, their funding increased every year since 2010. What happened to the money? How many bureaucrat friends and relatives were hired instead? Inquiring minds want to know.
