ChesneyChrist: Pandemic was #1 on our threat list above war and terrorism not that broader society reflected this. Most of our services revolved around low prices, low funding and little margin for error.

And that could change now. We spend a fortune on Trident down to the outdated fears of world war 3 and nuclear apocalypse because world war 2 was the last great threat to us. But things change. Today it would be both wise and popular to divert resources from mutually assured destruction and put them into disease control. We will prepare for the next catastrophe being a pandemic, and it'll turn out to be something else.
Will it turn out to be something we can’t see?

galrads: Democrats in Congress, as well as Republicans in Congress, were responsible for the level of funding for a lack of preparedness for things like covid1. Im referring to the content in the material you reference.
While I don't doubt you may be correct, that runs counter to the facts in the article referenced above. Do you have a source?
