Is the ADMINISTRATION's handling of the Coronavirus crisis BETTER or WORSE compared to other Crisis matters of a NON-TERRORISM type specific to disease management (e.g. H1N1, SARS, Hantaviruses, HIV/AIDS, Ebola, malaria, etc.)?

I think a lot of response will be based off whether people hate the President or not. Looking at the deaths from H1N1 and the lack of panic, I believe there is more going on here than just a government response. A new virus with no vaccine and no treatment other than for symptoms, I really do not think there is much the government can do but research. I fully believe the media is driving the panic and those that hate the President.
