Do you really think it's a good idea to concentrate almost all of your medical and semiconductor manufacturing on the shores of one of your biggest geopolitical rivals? Particularly when they've been saber rattling in the Pacific and are already making threats about withholding manufacturing?

Don't be so sure. This is an authoritarian regime which went to great lengths to cover up the outbreak for the first month. And they claimed return to capacity weeks ago when pollution maps still showed little to no productivity. The world isn't all rainbows and sunshine - nation states are still competitive and do not always work in each other's best interest.
None of this even begins to go into all of the IP fuckery and socialization of US companies going on in China.
