Be my guest to give us an intelligent, in-depth analysis of what your trying to say, the pros/cons of the plan and why it would have given us a bulletproof plan. I've seen the document ... good but not totally relevant to what we faced with the Wuhan virus, which essentially came out of a bio-weapons lab.

From one source critical of the admin:

"While an NSC official confirmed the playbook’s existence to Politico, the person quite richly claimed it was of little value. “We are aware of the document, although it’s quite dated and has been superseded by strategic and operational biodefense policies published since,” the official said. “The plan we are executing now is a better fit, more detailed, and applies the relevant lessons learned from the playbook and the most recent Ebola epidemic in the [Democratic Republic of the Congo] to COVID-19.”
