we had the national institutes of health. in cincinnati we have the national institutes of occupational safety and health, only one of its kind in the world. we have our county public health departments in each of ohio's 88 counties and all over the country. we had the best in the world until president trump began to try to gut the c.d.c. and the n.i.h. he refused to fill key public health positions. most importantly, this is just unbelievable when you think about it and i know senator young, the presiding officer, had concerns about that. he got rid of the white house's entire global health security team two years ago. let me repeat that. for two years president trump left us without the team that's supposed to manage pandemics. now, you know what that means? it means -- there were about 40 people at the white house led by an admiral who is an m.d. and also a doctor. his job was to survey the world and look around for potential illness outbreaks, to look around for potential pandemics. it might have been sars. it might have

the answer when it comes to national institutes of health is a positive one. over the last four years, something dramatic has occurred. i was happy to be part of a bipartisan effort that was led by senator patty murray of washington, senator roy blunt of missouri, senator lamar alexander of tennessee. what we have accomplished in the last four years is to increase the spending at the national institute of health for medical research grants from $30 billion to $39 billion. it's a dramatic increase. we started off with the premise that we wanted to increase the n.i.h. budget by real growth, that's 5% over inflation each year. we held to that standard. in fact, some years even better. we've got a lot to show for it. there have been real breakthroughs when it comes to medical research. we want to continue down this line. when it came to the centers for disease control, i had the same goal in mind. and we didn't quite reach it. over the last four years we've seen a 14% increase at c.d.c. i believe that this coronavirus pandemic threat is going to open the eyes of a

just in the last five years, we have increased funding, almost 40%, when it comes to the national institute of health and the centers for disease and control, c.d.c. and n.i.h. those are the individuals that are helping lead in this process. you had a 40% increase. just in 2019, under this administration and our majority, we created the infectious disease rapid response fund. so they could actually go after dealing with this at the very beginning. and then we have the national stockpile. so we have been preparing for a situation such as this. unfortunately, when this first came to the fruition that president xi did not allow us in there. if our scientists, doctors were able to be in china from the very beginning, we'd have more nowledge and we would probably have helped save the world, containment could have been within their country. right now it's a different situation. so we will do everything in our-- on our part working with the private sector making sure we have facilities we need. the other thing, too, from a responsibility from all americans, not to panic, but don't horde it as well
