As America has now become the epicenter for the worldwide coronavirus pandemic, government response directed by the Trump Administration has been slow, contrarian and inefficient. While this has largely been the reason that we have become the epicenter, it's also due to the unpreparedness of the American public and lack of resources, both informational and physical, that are available to citizens. This is shown through the ways that Americans and American businesses are trying to deal with the pandemic with what little resources they have; a makeshift social distancing line at Walmart made of uprighted carts and caution tape, or a face mask (largely unavailable to most Americans) given in a takeout bag of Chinese food with the words "Be Safe" written on it in Sharpie.
