President Trump ignored repeated warnings about the threat of pandemics and COVID-19. Let's review.
Bill Gates, who spoke with Trump soon after his election.

Here’s Trump’s HHS Secretary Alex Azar in April of 2019 saying what keeps him up at night is the threat of a pandemic flu, even though President Trump proposed cuts to the CDC and global health efforts in every one of his budgets.

A “pandemic playbook” that outlined how to prepare and respond for a potential outbreak ignored as COVID outbreaks started popping around the world and in the U.S.

Health officials sounded the alarms in November of 2019 briefing the White House, the Pentagon, and other officials about a Coronavirus outbreak in China that had the potential to do serious damage to Americans.

U.S. Intelligence agencies issued “ominous warnings” in January and February, when President Trump continued to play down COVID-19. He played at least six rounds of golf and held six rallies over this same time period.

President Trump continued to downplay the potential impact of the Coronavirus when Senate Minority Leader, Chuck Schumer, called for a public health emergency on January 26th.

Trump economic advisor, Peter Navarro, warned on January 29th that failure to contain the Coronavirus outbreak could lead to hundreds of thousands of deaths.

On January 30th, the World Health Organization warned COVID-19 indeed is a global pandemic.

President Trump was warned repeatedly about the threat global pandemics and COVID specifically posed to the U.S. from the beginning of his Administration. He ignored them and Americans are paying the price as Coronavirus casualties approach 15,000.
