What's this?

You make that argument all you want, but NO ONE HERE IS POTUS!

No one here had daily briefings from multiple intelligence services about China and corona virus. The argument that the average American wasn't alarmed in January is completely irrelevant to the actions of the President, particularly in light of GOP senators giving private talks highlighting the danger, and multiple health officials with documentation of warnings. You rang the bell early, good for you, you're one of 100s of people who did, and the President ignored them all. You're only further indicting his irresponsible habit of dismissing intelligence reports because he doesn't like what they are telling him.
