O’Brien credited the president for doing his best to keep Americans safe from the virus. “The president took very bold action when we realized the extent of what was happening,” he said, citing Trump’s decision to stop visitors from China from entering the country.
National security adviser Robert O’Brien defended President Trump’s response to the coronavirus and blamed the Chinese government for covering up the initial outbreak of an illness the World Health Organization declared Wednesday was now a pandemic.
By taking those actions, the Chinese government “probably cost the world community two months,” O’Brien told an audience Wednesday at the Heritage Foundation, a conservative think tank in Washington, D.C. If Beijing had adopted a more cooperative stance and allowed teams from the World Health Organization and the U.S.
The president has been roundly criticized for playing down the threat of the virus by comparing it to the flu, for saying he would prefer to keep the Americans who caught the virus on the Grand Princess cruise liner from disembarking so they didn’t increase the official tally of those infected in the United States, and for appearing to suggest, against all expert advice, that it was fine for people with the virus to go to work “and get better.
