The United States is also made up of states where the governors have more local authority than the Federal government. Forcing Covid-19 patients in nursing homes (in New York and New Jersey) was not a Federal government decision (a mayor and two governors made that decision) and, so far, that has been the most disastrous decision made in the U.S. during the pandemic.
