[QUOTE="DrWazzock, post: 6864615, member: 2119"] The initial response to the virus in the west seemed blasé and careless to my mind. The idea of restricting movement was so at odds with the whole western ethos that they wouldn’t contemplate it and remained largely in denial of the seriousness of the risk. They couldn’t grasp that a virus won’t respect high ideals only rigourous containment. Standing shoulder to shoulder and keeping borders open helped it spread rapidly. Whether we could have contained and eradicated the virus is something we will never know, yet the Chinese persist in claiming they have it largely under control. I am not claiming to know one way or the other but somehow dragging our feet on this seemed to waste a valuable opportunity. That’s my gut feeling, I am not an expert. [/QUOTE]
