"Oh yes. Very good analysis. It was all China and Doctor WHO'S fault."

Just to check, you dont think China allowed this to become a pandemic when they covered up infections and prosecuted those who spoke out about the virus before it managed to spread and become a pandemic? As the origin and actively attacking those trying to act China also refused to cooperate with the WHO. You dont think that gives them a large share of the blame?

And the WHO played down the danger as it was trying not to upset the Chinese, you dont think thats a problem?

"And without pinpointing the reason for the outbreak we were completely helpless and powerless to act in a timely manner."

Which is increasingly looking like the lab which is not allowed to be investigated. Something considered a fringe theory while Trump was saying it but became a serious possibility/probability now the presidential race is over. Pinpointing being easier if people are allowed to investigate which the Chinese have made very difficult.

"Taiwan was foolish to even try: Linking their border controls and healthcare system to target quarantines etc through big data analysis?"

Why? Who said that? They tried something in an unprecedented situation. How successful it is will surely be determined at some point in the future.

You sure you dont wanna put your name to your comments? Worth a laugh.
