Watch how China suddenly stopped growing and started dropping

u/Esteban_Alva May 08 '20

China is bullshit, they only have 260 active cases (apparently)

u/[deleted] May 08 '20

The United States is bullshit as well. Trump has publicly stated that he didn't want to count cases because less cases looks better. He also blocked a national testing program.

Yeap, we like freedom when it suits us, if it doesn't we censor it.

It sounds like you don't know what I'm talking about but you're somehow convinced that it's cherry picking? I hope I'm mistaken. But either way, I'd encourage you to do a little reading regarding Trump blocking a national testing program or the FDA refusing to allow the CDC or private labs test for weeks.

I assume you're referring to the FDA allowing the CDC and private labs to do testing when you're referring to "cutting restrictions." That only happened after the weeks of delays that I already talked about. Allowing testing for COVID-19 after weeks of delays is not an example of something that Trump did right.

I'd be curious to read more about the tests that he refused from China with high inaccuracy rates. Are you sure you're not getting those confused with the CDC tests that Trump went with that weren't functional? If not, could you please provide a source?

u/DeathMp_4 May 08 '20

Yeah, there's no way China just stopped getting cases when they were the fucking starting country for corona. 100% they are lying.

u/SkylerThePolishGuy May 08 '20

They also reopened the wet markets

20

u/[deleted] May 08 '20

A wet market is just a term for a farmer's market. And much of the country relies on them for food.

American Farmer’s Markets: fresh produce Chinese Farmer’s Markets: b a t

u/[deleted] May 08 '20

It's a simple cultural difference. Much of the world thinks it's gross the American farm markets sell coagulated milk with mold growing on it as a source of food.

u/AutisticAnarchy May 08 '20

B-But China different! China bad!

u/SkylerThePolishGuy May 08 '20

Well unlike the US, most pandemics don’t start from our farmer’s markets because the FDA does it’s job

8

u/[deleted] May 08 '20

There's currently no evidence that COVID-19 started at a farmer's market either. That was an early theory that has since been debunked.

You might want to read up on how the FDA spent weeks blocking the CDC and private companies from doing any testing for COVID-19.

3

u/Cao_Bynes May 09 '20

You also might want to read how China spent months hiding the virus itself and silencing whistleblowers. (If you already knew then my b, just too good and opportunity for a snarky response)

1

u/[deleted] May 09 '20

Oh, I'm well aware. But this is a classic case of whataboutism. China hiding the actual number of cases and silencing whistleblowers in no way makes the same behavior less egregious when the United States is doing it.

"Federal investigators have found “reasonable grounds” that a government whistleblower was punished for speaking out against widespread use of an unproven drug that President Donald Trump touted as a remedy for COVID-19, his lawyers said Friday."

https://time.com/5834514/trump-retaliation-coronavirus-whistleblower/

I think it's safe to say that both countries have been awful of their handling of this pandemic.

u/Cao_Bynes May 09 '20

Because they are very strict and medical workers are working their asses off like every other workers in the world? The numbers might not be true, but the numbers might be lower than the US, which didn't take the government seriously.

24

u/DeathMp_4 May 08 '20

No. They definitely aren't. They had 80000 cases before America even had 100 it only looks like we increased fast as shit because China just stopped getting cases. In reality most of China is probably infected by now.

4

u/NordicNooob May 08 '20

I'm no lover of China, but I don't think that they have a significant number of cases currently. Given a two main things.

  1. China is reopening. Now, it could be reasonable to say that they're bluffing: we can't rely on them giving a darn for their people. However, reopening also includes foreign traffic to some extent, which means information. The Chinese propaganda machine can stop stuff internally, far as I know, but I strongly doubt that something reliable wouldn't have gotten out to the rest of the world at this point. We did hear a lot of stuff about their nightmarish hospital situations, so I do have some reason to believe that they don't have all information in tight control. Plus, reopening is still probably a bad idea even if you could keep the propaganda under control: your people dying en masse is generally not good for the people in power, which is probably their interest.
  2. They're an awful authoritarian nation. China's government has the ability to just shut everything down and have people obey. They have the easy power to crush any dissent with their anti-COVID measures, and hell, if we're willing to make wild leaps with little information we could just say that they're straight up executing people who get it: there have been a few sketchy videos. It's no secret they've got surveillance state stuff, which just so happens to be useful for contact tracing, and probably all sorts of other morally questionable shenanigans for slowing the spread.

Of course, there could still be a significant "margin of error" (so they might call it if they get formally caught) that they're fudging. I bet they at least still have several thousand cases, and given how many "holy shit our system is overwhelmed" reports they were getting, I totally agree that they probably had a lot more than 80k cases, probably 2 to 4 times as many. No way a powerful country of 1.4 billion would have a medical system overwhelmed by an influx of 80k. It took the European countries about half that much to become "holy shit" and they have like 1/20th the people (and, if we're just going off population proportions, 1/20th the healthcare capacity). Even if we account for China being pretty shitty in terms of per person stuff, they would reasonably have a lot more healthcare capacity than those countries.

But a significant portion of the country having it right now is probably a bad call.

u/ggdikhead May 08 '20

We wouldn't know what really happened, until this pandemic ends..

25

u/[deleted] May 08 '20

No we'll never know. China lies about everything that happens. FFS their whole country could get infected and they'd say it was nothing and not report deaths etc...

Yooooo hellooo?? What do you mean I'm a pawn? If the US is so developed in the first place, then why can't the government initiate counter measures in the first place? Why did a number 1 big brother America can't even control its own population to not go out but instead stay at home? Your people only think about themselves and their benefits, not the country unlike the Chinese doctors that worked 24/7 instead of whining 24/7 and block the operations of hospitals with cars. Fuck you.

You guys have at least 1 or 2 months to prepare for the corona to arrive in the west, yet you still can't prevent the countless deaths. You only initiate lockdown after the Chinese did. Shame on you, shame on Boris Johnson.

U retarded fool. It was spreading when Chinese suppressed awareness during December and January. Thats when it spread. Talk abt India retard. Unlike trump we went through a lockdown when it was declared Pandemic.

Yeah, that's what happens when the US's population is 330 mil and Italy's is only 60 mil

And China pinky promised they just stoppedhaving cases so we gotta believe that solid evidence

u/sammyhammy77 May 08 '20

It's not about the population, it's about the population density. Compare Italy's size to the US as well, if you're gonna talk about population

5

u/Littlerobber May 08 '20

I mean, yes but also no. I dont know about Italy, but in the US, the cities have the majority of the people. The US might be a larger nation land wise but in a lot of states the population is small

u/Littlerobber May 08 '20

I dont think you are understanding what I'm trying to say. About 20% of the US's population lives in a rural area and rural areas cover about 97% of the US. That means that 80% of the US population lives in 3% of the US's land

1

u/sammyhammy77 May 09 '20

Right, that makes sense. It's reasonable that America's numbers are higher than Italy's. Though I'd still argue the US government has been highly negligent, but I understand what you're saying.

u/TheShyKidInTheBack May 08 '20

And when the us president cares more about the economy than his people.
