Taking a walk, I overhear neighbors complain about the shutdown, saying “this is the fault of uncivilized practices in China. They’re unhygienic.” Sad that propagandized Americans blame that rather than the government negligence and corporate greed that left us unprepared
It is also the result of uncivilized practices in China - practices of the sort which might occur anywhere but for strong government safety regulations of the type the CCP refuses to impose.
