Your entire argument is based on the premise that the country of origin bears no responsibility when in fact they should be owning 100% of that responsibility
Despite what President Donald J Trump might have told you or at least implied when he called it the China Virus and the Kung Flu and whatever other attention diverting racist **** he came up with: CHINA CANNOT CONTROL NATURE. It’s not their fault the virus originated there. All they could do was contain it once they figured it out and that’s what they did. The rest of the world is in debt to them for their quick action and good example. Unfortunately, we were too stupid to learn from our intellectual superiors.

It’s simply a lack of willingness to be decent.

Perhaps you noticed the national guard totally shut down DC for the inauguration.

America invests almost a trillion dollars a year on its military. Perhaps they could do **** like deliver food and medicine during a pandemic which is one of the most obvious end results of a terrorist attack and there’s this thing called “homeland security” that’s actually designed to keep the homeland secure. But yeah, there wasn’t anything we could’ve done. We just had to let it “wash through” like President Donald J Trump said.

One thing is for sure though. We didn’t understand germ theory or how viruses spread at the time. Now that we know about this thing in nature called “contagion” next time maybe we can get on top of it.

They sure as **** did. That's what GOF research is all about bud. And if there was really nothing to see at that lab, they wouldn't have been going gangbusters on information suppression.

Also, you are comparing containing the virus to a single prefecture to a country like the U.S. where people are pouring in from multiple points of entry. China didn't set a good example at any point that was actually relevant...well, except maybe in how to effectively "silence" people from whistleblowing.

I know I’m drastically changing gears and becoming less dogmatic with this post but we need to get back to being able to trust the EPA and the CDC and the FDA again. I think everyone who’s not insane and me all agree on that.

Since everyone ignored your question, Marie:
EPA = Environmental Protection Agency
CDC = Centre for Disease Control
FDA = Food and Drug Administration

China is slow to wake, but they took extreme measures to contain it in their borders when they did act. Countries like the US don't really have the will or backbone to do things like that (for various reasons).

Don't you know it was created deliberately in a lab and then foisted on the world? Don't you watch Fox and Newsmax?

I believe the term was "ride it like a cowboy"...
