"What would YOU have done differently that would have prevented the spread and kept the economy rolling?"
I'd punt the economy. It can come back, but dead people can't.

I'd start by saying, and keep re-enforcing that this was the most serious contagious disease to come along since the Spanish Flu, and people should follow the advice of their state and county health agencies and personal physicians. I'd wear a mask. I wouldn't hold events. I would switch as much government work as possible to remote, and close down federal tourist attractions. Hopefully, I would have restocked federal warehouses with masks and gloves in the first 3 years. I wouldn't be supportive of just states who voted for me, like Kush did. I wouldn't show up at press conferences to promote bleach, altho I might offer some perspective based on my career as a respiratory therapist. I'd prolly go down to NIH to encourage the efforts to come up with a vaccine. I might try to increase unemployment bennies.
