The federal response from the beginning has shown absolutely no leadership. even if the states were in full control, the federal govt (IE Trump) should have gathered every governor to work through a COHESIVE strategy. After all, travel between states is open, and always posed a weakness in every state's strategy. But no, he deemed it a 'hoax' from day one which set the tone for people taking it seriously or not. Now the south opened up en masse too early and have laid waste towards efforts to contain this in march. You don't believe me, then simply watch those states' follow up responses now. Texas is starting to shut down for instance.
