SARS was 2002-04, and GWB became a pandemic nerd in 2005. He deserves credit for responding meaningfully to a near-miss. He read an actual book, got an actual idea and did something about it. It wasn’t mere legacy-seeking then, and it’s not mere reputation laundering now.

Here’s a contrast: I attribute to neocon coterie (Cheney et al) actions in GWB name a lot more than I attribute to Mitch McConnell actions in Trump name. Why? Because GWB was kinda maneuvered into many actions. Trump otoh went along eagerly, claiming every win Mitch lined up.
