How would Hillary Clinton have handled the pandemic?

First, as a former Secy. of State, she would know what working with China entails. She would know not to take their word on anything. She would have pushed to get our people there on the ground and reporting back. IOW, she would have exhausted all containment efforts.

Second, she would have followed Obama's pandemic response playbook because her state department probably contributed to it.

Third, she would have mobilzed getting PPE equipment to hospitals.

Fourth, she would have fast tracked the testing.

Fifth, she would listen to her public health experts.

And all along the way, Republicans, Fox News, and the right wing would be fighting her and screaming conspiracy theories to the high heavens.

1. Sixth, she probably would have used tools available from the Clinton Foundation.

Worldwide public health is something it's heavily involved in.

https://www.clintonfoundation.org/clinton-global-initiative/about-us/tracks/global-health

The Global Health Track focuses on the access to and quality of health services, products, and systems in four priority areas—infectious diseases, women’s and children’s health, non-communicable diseases (NCDs), and mental health. This year, the Track will explore four integrated approaches relevant to the priority areas—technology for health, financing for health, health systems strengthening, and government leadership. Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) members in this Track work across sectors to develop and implement collaborative solutions to global health challenges.

I admit to a secret hope that the Clinton Foundation beats everyone else to a vaccine.

2. She wouldn't have wanted to sound the alarm any more than anyone else would, but she would have I'm sure. She would have still had the pandemic response team and more help at the CDC. There is no way she would have ignored them. But, she may not have gotten any cooperation from Congress at all. Democrats might not have controlled the House.

Yeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaahhhh. I do not think Yavin4's fantasy would even happen in the Star Wars universe, let alone any realistic alternate universe. Certainly not this one. OTOH, his/her third, fourth, and fifth steps were what Trump did, of which Yavin4 is predictably ignorant.
If The Vaccine is deadly as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, millions now living would have died.

Wow, it's nice to see that Laelth, who was once a reasonably active member here although never disguising his political sentiments, is still alive and well on Skins's island.

I had my doubts, watching how a few years ago he folded to Jugs, shredding any manhood and masculinity he ever had.

There’s enough “would” in the yavin4 primitives post to make a mahogany table, but little else of value was presented. Nothing out of the ordinary from that dimwit, though.

How would Hillary Clinton have handled the pandemic?

She would have combed the world for donations to the clinton foundation, then let the people die. and later when asked she would reply "what does it matter?"
Life is tough and it’s even tougher when you’re stupid

did yavin4 just say that the chinese people are not trustworthy, cuz that's what I got from that statement.
Biden is an illegitimate President.  Change my mind.

China won't even let WHO in to investigate and WHO is owned by the ChiComs.

Hillary would be living in a glass bubble to protect her fragile health.

Had the pandemic known any Clinton secrets I am sure an elevator shaft would have been involved in the "accident" or "suicide".

Obama can't even get his Library built.

And Durham has the Foundation under investigation again.  They were allegedly doing things like diluting AIDS-medicine with water in far-flung, 'hard to investigate' places like rural South Africa, etc.  And I think they even had a 'water-scandal' in some the same places...  'selling'/distributing tap-water in plastic-bottles.
