tortoise vs the hare analogy doesnt work well when there isnt even a race. The USA withdrew from the race with decoupling tariffs.
Humanity needs redundancy and resilience. We dont have that when all medical products are produced in china. The move means we produce them in north america, asia, and europe. We create jobs back home and have secure supply chains.
This unfortunately does mean harsh times for china who needs to adapt. Whereas north american point of view is just job creation.

The EU has a chips act, the critical raw material act, battery alliance, active pharma, clean industrial tech plan, eu banned huawei and ZTE, and the 'friend shoring' initiative. All of these are anti-china; but really shouldnt be seen this way.
