In the US, Republican leaders didn't want to admit that covid was an issue because they didn't want to lose their political power. Just like what happened with the political leaders in China. I won't say that there were no Democrats who denied that covid was going to become serious, but there is a reason why the Republicans have labeled it a "Democrat hoax". More Democrats were for taking steps to halt the pandemic than were against it. Just as more Republicans were for ignoring the warning signs than were against burying their heads in the sand.China happens to be both authoritarian and communist.
Communism has been the cause of most societal ills since its creation in 1830.
The democratic party has been embracing communism and slavery since the time of Lincoln. I still can't understand how people allow it as a party in modern times.
Abd what is happening now is communism in action.
And it shows when we see the type of censorship some platforms are implementing to keep one side silent.
