Arguably, and I heard the argument, that the news blackout was to prevent a public panic, which would have emptied out the Wuhan city in a matter of hours given the way the toilet paper market subsequently veered off of the rails. Arguable re the correct approach. The fact that city officials were clueless about what to do is hardly surprising, especially given that USA governors and POTUS did not know what to do even when had plenty of warning all through 2020. So, the first apparent cases happened in Wuhan. Appears that the animal market was not the origin, or so am told. The ‘very first case’ was a 70-yrs old man on December 31st 2019, ala looked like lung infection. City shutdown, unprecedented in global history, within 48 days of get-go. Not bad. Pretty decisive. Especially compared to subsequent performance by authorities all across the planet over a much longer period of time. Now, let’s investigate thoroughly, as opposed to ‘a bio weapon deliberately released …’, and let’s be thorough, across the planet. A virus that apparently favor Asian genetics, researched in problematic military germ labs, etc etc etc. The Wuhan lab is a civilian outfit with foreign scientists working inside of it. I see problems. Especially as it has not really been agreed across the global political arena just how bad the virus actually is. I think it is bad bad. But 49% or 51% of the planet’s population do not think it is bad bad.
