The Chinese government silenced the doctor first raising the issue and blocked him from communicating about the disease. If other countries do that, then they will also be suppressing and censoring. Have other countries done that?
- cjhopman 7y agoWell, by definition there's only one doctor in the world that first raised the issue. Other countries have done similar things. Ex. USA - silenced one of the NIH's director of infectious disease only allowing him to say what the government wanted - released propaganda and misinformation from the highest levels downplaying the severity - prohibited doctors from testing people to keep the confirmed numbers low idk, i'm sure you could find more. I'd describe the US' response more critically than the chinese. The US already knew how bad it was, and the poor behavior was from the top of government, not just some local body.
