Three and a half million cases of COVID-19 in the US. One hundred and forty thousand deaths. Hospital at capacity. Refrigerator trucks because the morgues are full. A vaccine (optimistically) months away. People politicizing basic protections against the disease. A teetering economy. Exploded debt. Millions out of work, thousands of businesses shuttered.
But not to worry - he’s got everything under control.
The cure for all of this is...beans.

I agree it's still harm. But I'm talking of blameworthiness.
by "morally comparable" did you mean "morally culpable" and by "weather" did you mean "whether"? If so then it seems that we agree. And that our disagreement is a terminological one.

I love eating beans, beans is one of my favorite foods, but I still don't see how beans cures all those things!

Actually the cure appears to be Trump whoring himself out to the first Mexican who wanders past the White House.

There are several articles available with a quick Google search.

Hospital data on coronavirus patients will now be rerouted to the Trump administration instead of first being sent to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Department of Health and Human Services confirmed to CNN on Tuesday.
My bet is that the hospitals will re-route it to the CDC, in one way or another, anyway.
