One thing that cuts across political lines and has been a point that liberals and conservatives are united on is the fact that China facilitated the spread of this virus by covering it up. They went so far as to treat as criminal their own healthcare professionals who tried to sound the alarm about this virus, silencing them and even placing at least one on house arrest. Internally, they've clamped down on internet references to their involvement in the spread of the virus. One recent study estimated that China could have reduced the worldwide impact of this virus by 95% if they had acted immediately, instead of covering it up.
It's so silly. This has become a worldwide nightmare. Societies are literally shutting down and economies crashing. All because China covered this thing up. People in America are dying, at the worst, or experiencing financial hardship at the least. And it's all directly due to one country: China. As I saw stated in the Washington Post, this amounts to nothing less than biological warfare.
Which leads to one question: Is there any mechanism whereby they can be "punished" for this nefarious activity? The world is so dependent on Chinese goods.
