> EDIT: to further prove my point, you didn't respond to the part of my post where I said we clearly saw this coming in 2019. it exactly disproves your point - we DID see national lockdowns, we just didn't care.
China did not report this disease to the WHO until 31DEC.
The first containment restrictions, a quarantine of the greater Wuhan area, was not put in place until 23JAN.
Until a few weeks ago, the earliest known infection presented on 10DEC in Wuhan.
So, how the hell did "we clearly saw this coming in 2019"? Where are the "national lockdowns" you claim existed?
