No epidemiologists were going around saying "eh it could never happen". In fact, many of them were warning after SARS. Trump actually took apart Obama's virus disaster-readiness warehouses and other programs in 2018-2019. Very bad timing, many such cases!

I would suspect the majority of disaster-related experts are not going to be so laid back.

Yeah but couldn't seismologists just never say anything about the matter?
