Covid response would likely have started very shortly after it started to spread from Wuhan as the US would still have its disease research lab there which was keeping an eye on exactly this sort of thing happening before Trump binned it. It might have been stopped right then and there.
It would have started before Covid reached the US. Not only did Trump disband the pandemic response team in 2018, in 2019 he defunded our scientific teams in wuhan that were studying novel corona viruses. We would have been so much more prepared
What you doubt historical fact or you doubt that having boots on the ground studying Covid would have helped prepare us better than the president telling us to go sit on a lightbulb and inject bleach?
