The figures are only that low now 2 months later because China quarantined ALL suspect contacts pretty much lowering spread to 0.3 since start of February. If the US sent every close contact of a confirmed infected at gunpoint to a Fema camp you can also kill the virus too.

All my data was from the National Health Commission of China. It says right here that there were 48 new cases and all of them were imported. http://www.nhc.gov.cn/yjb/s7860/202003/ec2689b0e716468fbfff7cf890c74bb7.shtml …pic.twitter.com/JgA55f7I4H

You aren't reading further enough. China is also reporting 44 suspect cases. 10 days ago these were local. When China says suspect, what they mean is that they actually tested positive on a pcr test, but don't have clinical symptoms. Positive for sars-cov2 but not covid-19. They

The "suspected" cases are also 100% imported. The balance of evidence definitely supports my assertion that China is fudging the numbers.

I'm not infatuated with it. I just like to be proven right. China's response was obviously better than the USA's.

China's response is a message heard loud and clear in every developing country -> "Even if you are poor country, you can use inexpensive Chinese tech and command/control to build defenses against bioweapons". China is going to gain many vassals as a result.

Maybe. All the smart small countries will just play the USA and China off each other to get the best deals. Even though we're incompetent, we still have way more soft power. The Chinese will never ever be cool.

I think you are vastly overestimating what 'soft power' is. 'Cool' counts for nothing in geopolitics.
