Mainecat Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 China beat the coronavirus with science and strong public health measures, not just with authoritarianism Elanah Uretsky, Associate Professor of International and Global Studies, Brandeis University I live in a democracy. But as Thanksgiving approaches, I find myself longing for the type of freedom I am seeing in China. People in China are able to move around freely right now. Many Americans may believe that the Chinese are able to enjoy this freedom because of China’s authoritarian regime. As a scholar of public health in China, I think the answers go beyond that. My research suggests that the control of the virus in China is not the result of authoritarian policy, but of a national prioritization of health. China learned a tough lesson with SARS, the first coronavirus pandemic of the 21st century. How China flattened its curve Barely less than a year ago, a novel coronavirus emerged in Wuhan, China, with 80,000 cases identified within three months, killing 3,000 people. In late January 2020, the Chinese government decided to lock down this city of 11 million people. All transportation to and from the city was stopped. Officials further locked down several other cities in Hubei Province, eventually quarantining over 50 million people. By the beginning of April, the Chinese government limited the spread of the virus to the point where they felt comfortable opening up Wuhan once again. https://www.yahoo.com/news/china-beat-coronavirus-science-strong-132000845.html 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gold Member BOHICA Posted November 23, 2020 Gold Member Share Posted November 23, 2020 That author has freedoms to this day the exceeding what China has. He just is pretty stupid to believe reporting out of a government as China as accurate and 2 he is just scared of a cold and chooses to lock himself away rather then get out and enjoy the freedoms offered in the USA.

Somebody should quarantine you to your house, with a monitor that they use for parolees and such. You're too independent, and need to be controlled.

spin_dry Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Screams could be heard from the massive crematoriums that were disposing of covid dead in China. That was earlier this year. It appears officials got a little ahead of themselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High-risk individuals would be temporarily relocated to safe or “green zones” established at the household, neighborhood, camp/sector or community level depending on the context and setting.1,2 They would have minimal contact with family members and other low-risk residents. Current evidence indicates that older adults and people of any age who have serious underlying medical conditions are at higher risk for severe illness from COVID-19.3 In most humanitarian settings, older population groups make up a small percentage of the total population.4,5 For this reason, the shielding approach suggests physically separating high-risk individuals from the general population to prioritize the use of the limited available resources and avoid implementing long-term containment measures among the general population.
