China has taken this seriously, but too late: have you seen the videos leaked out? a forced quarantine of 50M, hospitals at over capacity, they shut down their factories in the region. They require citizens in public to wear masks in spite of the shortage of them. They force citizens showing symptoms in public (presumably those who couldn’t get admitted to hospitals) to quarantine centers. They cremate verified victims from hospitals and those found on the street and in their homes. Supposedly, the dead found on the street and in their homes aren’t included in the official death tolls.

Their overcrowding might have contributed to the spread but it absolutely doesn’t mean we couldn’t have an epidemic here.

There is no way the media is co-opting this to go after the President. I hope that the COVID-19 doesn’t make a big impact in the USA, but based on what has occurred in China so far, we need to be concerned, and repeating conspiracy theories is not the way to respond.

What’s sad is that the political leadership here does not value human life over money and they will refuse to take the steps to prevent the spread that China eventually did.
