To the heartless people complaining US might have sent some ventilators to China at the peak of their epidemic. You'd rather have people in China die of lack of ventilators when we weren't yet hit? Not just heartless but stupid because of the below. Ventilators should go to need.https://twitter.com/lumiere2016/status/1244323105272500224 …

I've never minced words about the culpability of the Chinese gov't. See thread below for some of my writings. But the idea it was wrong to send ventilators when they were desperately needed for the people of China is callous, opportunistic rage peddling.https://twitter.com/zeynep/status/1240304017407979525 …

zeynep tufekciVerified account @zeynepReminder that brave Wuhan doctors knew of human-to-human transmission in December, and put everything on the line to try to warn us. They were censored and punished. Some died. Unconscionably, Chinese authorities suppressed the info and WHO parroted their line into January. https://twitter.com/WHO/status/1217043229427761152 …Show this thread4 replies 20 retweets 97 likesShow this thread
Replying to @zeynep
It’s not the generosity to other nations in need that angers me. I applaud that. It’s Trump’s concurrent denial of a problem here and his refusal to help various US states also in need.
