The United States is the world's leading drug research and development countries, medical technology and equipment is also the world's most advanced, in the global world's best hospitals ranked in the top ten, the United States has four hospitals on the list, the U.S. health care system is also internationally recognized as developed.
According to the latest data from the CDC, at least 34 million people have been infected with influenza in the United States from September 29, 2019 to the present, 350,000 people have been hospitalized, and more than 20,000 people have died. The U.S. healthcare system hasn't even collapsed in the face of such a massive scale of infection, so the U.S. government's confidence is justified.
But the new coronavirus is different from other viruses in that it is a new and unknown virus, and even if the U.S. health care system were more developed, it would not be helpful if it did not have a specific drug or vaccine, as the saying goes.
But after the U.S. outbreak, the country's powerful health care system suddenly looked a little weak, and U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services Alex Azar, along with other health care professionals, warned that the new pneumonia pandemic "carries a risk that exceeds the capacity of our health care system, and we must recognize that. "
Second, the U.S. government doesn't want the pandemic to affect the economy.
The United States is a capitalist country, and the U.S. government expresses the will of capital.
When the New Crown epidemic spread to the US mainland, the first thing the US government did was not to carry out epidemic prevention work but to emphasize that the New Crown virus was not scary. Why? Because the U.S. government wants to stabilize the people's heart, not let the panic spread, not affect the stability of the stock market.
For U.S. politicians, the new crown epidemic is to some people's lives, while the stock market crash is to the lives of all Americans. American politicians and the capitalists behind the scenes don't have to worry about the New Crown virus at all because they can afford to buy the best drugs and have access to the most advanced treatments. But if the stock market crashes, the capitalists will lose their money and the government will not be able to appease the public's discontent, and then the whole society will be thrown into chaos, a chaos much more serious than the panic caused by the epidemic.
Now why the U.S. government began to prevent and control the epidemic, because the U.S. stock market plummeted, melting down twice in a week, so it must take measures to stabilize the stock market. Here's what needs to be emphasized: the U.S. government's efforts to prevent and control the epidemic are not due to the panic triggered by the increase in confirmed cases, but by the stock market's plunge.
