    “China” didn’t buy us time. The Chinese government unleashed the pandemic in the first place with their coverups and lies. They acted, finally, to save themselves. The *people* of China, especially the medical workers, bought us a time through great sacrifice. Watch the video.😢https://twitter.com/_DanielSinclair/status/1238733660842491910 …

    This is the video from China's epidemic that world leaders needed to watch when it surfaced at this time one month ago. The wife of Dr. Liu Zhiming follows his body as it is transported to the crematorium. His colleagues grieve in the street. Sound on. https://twitter.com/lansewenming/status/1230038128271822848/video/1 …

        I saw that when it happened. Absolutely heartbreaking. The .@realDonaldTrump administration and its henchmen were still blowing the crisis off as a hoax at the time. 💔💔💔 #CriminalNegligence

        Yes, absolutly. But for China, the country is not only the people, but also the government. Is it really difficult for you guys to adimt Chinese government has done well?

        "before condemning the decision of Chinese officials in early January to dismiss the threat of a looming epidemic, remember that at that time the coronavirus was not reported to have caused any deaths." Such a silly justification. Why dismiss it if it was innocuous?

        This is the time when we are all being faced with the clear, unobstructed view of the difference between a people and their institutions and what happens when those institutions stop serving their people

        They compromised for Republican votes that they didn’t need for the house’s coronavirus bill. Unreal. Fuck all of them. https://twitter.com/thehill/status/1238919913076592641 …
