Chinese are typically obedient people (they may not want to be, but they mostly know what the consequences of not doing as the government instructs can be). So when they are locked in their homes for 7+ weeks for the greater good, they accept it. They don’t congregate on beaches or in pubs. And when they come out of 2 months forced hibernation, they will know better than to allow it to come back through carelessness. Or to permit foreigners to bring it in. I’m not sure we are that smart.
China will be back on its feet while we on this continent continue to make mistake after mistake (as we already have in the nearly 3 months that our governments and their scientific advisors have known about the disease) in addressing this. By delaying as long as we have done, not having a decisive and consistent response, and pondering a return to business as usual far to soon, we will be allowing the Chinese tiger to become the undisputed largest economy in the world on the back side of this crisis. |
China is trying to spin this anyway they can do make their self look good. They blamed the US Army for it. They blamed Italy for it. Who's next? China said that they are helping out other countries hit with the virus. Problem is that they are charging these countries for the medical supplies. People think they are doing it for free. China sold Croatia and other countries test kits and other medical supplies. Most of it didn't work. You don't think that this chit isn't coming back and biting them in the azz. Companies were already planning to move out of China to begin with. This will only speed up the process. The supply lines are moving out of China. Companies realized that they have put all of their eggs in one basket, and it got crushed.
