Our government is trash and they definitely failed us, but to be fair we've got a large segment of our population that were willing to go to war over wearing masks. I can't really say that our nation deserves better than what we have as leaders. After all, we're the one putting those clowns in office, and I mean "we" as in the American populace not anyone on this site in particular.
China isn't folding to the pressure plus they had a good year to hide any evidence while people politicized the origins in the US.How about every country force China to give them details about what they did to create this in the first place.
One can also look at it as.....voting got us here
Just in case someone else says "voting is useless" and all that other shit....
Gov to blame for its mishandling of this situation, some politicians more than others (Trump, Noem, DeSantis for instance) but toss in news media for misinformation...
Now of course the average citizen is to blame as well (it don't affect black ppl, I'm not wearing a mask it infringes upon my rights, covid parties, spring break, its a New York disease, its a hoax, Antifa, poor hand washing, it's on the coastal areas not the Midwest, going to work when sick, the numbers are fake and ppl aren't dying like that from it). Just blatant ignoring of caution
I think this is how the majority of countries are feeling.Both are to blame cuz both have left us vulnerable. Virologists have been saying for decades how unprepared our health system is for a major infectious outbreak.
Aint neither party interested in our wellbeing, just business as usual. And we paying the price for it coming to a head these past 2 yrs with the pandemic and uprisings.
