I imagine in terms of medical care access and affordability or welfare stimulus, practically negligible, but in terms of CDC funding, science literacy, public policy, and general preparedness, it would be a whole lot better put together.

So I'd say... 10% fewer deaths? 200K vs. 220K deaths sounds about right.

    Good was a bad word choice, but from the sense they'd at least recognize a vampiric business opportunity ahead of time, whereas trump admin tried ignoring the situation for as long as possible. without making this about Clinton in particular, I think just about anyone else in the potus seat would have put together a better response than trump.

      Ah, fair enough, I see what you mean about the masks. It would be better under not-Trump but I don't feel that the difference would be meaningful in any way
