If their numbers are to believed, the Chinese actually did a reasonable job of stopping COVID-19 (after the initial denial and inaction). Most of their tactics would not be accepted in a "free country" but if you contrast this with the U.S. (my country) response, you'll see that the denials went on far too long, our optimism we could do better was misguided and we spent precious days on politics that should have been put into ramping up the medical services we needed.
So instead of steeling the population for what was coming, many citizens thought (and still think) "it's just the flu". Once again, the U.S. is number one! (as counted by confirmed infections). Maybe we could use some posters like this?
