China was no different between SARS and now. They still tried to cover it up as much as they could until they could no longer keep it under control. And this time, we are barely able to contain this. Do we really want to continue down this path and tolerate the way CCP does things all in the sake of trade?!?

Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me.

I could give a flying fuck about what CCP does to Chinese citizens. Yes, the censorship and suppression are incomprehensible by our standard, but it's their choice. But CCP's practice of coverups is clearly having an impact on world stage given their constant attempt to influence international bodies like WHO, UN... etc

Can humanity really survive this time? Let along a third time of an even more powerful virus down the road. I would strongly urge everyone to write to their MPs about the way we deal with China. We need to demand for transparency and accountability from China or we'd rather sacrifice trade with them.

The impact of this virus outbreak is still impossible to calculate. A figure in the billions or even trillion could be in the play if this drags on. Was this worth it? I'm not even sure whatever trade we did with China for the last 15yrs (since SARS) can account enough to pay for the damage of this outbreak.

Seriously, I just woke up, watching the kids here at home...almost two weeks of them staying home. I'm just fucking FURIOUS. Why do we have to suffer the consequences of a fucked up from China? They knew there was an outbreak. And yet decided to let people to roam freely for over a month? And they had the guts to trying to pin this on the US... questioning that the US might have brought it to Wuhan during the Military game. I'm like wtf? Why don't you question yourself how outbreaks like this can happen twice in a roll in China and yet you have dealt it pretty much the same way? Look at Taiwan... They are able to contain it so well without closing stores and schools because they learned a thing or two from SARS. And there we have the fucking CCP doing the same coverup they tried to do with SARS.

Fuck the CCP... like really... FUCK...

Is a lot more complicated than this. The CCP (that's like our federal) oversees the provincial and then the local gov. The local gov knew about this back in Nov but decided to hide it/scrap it under rug because the local gov (city) knows that if they report it to the provincial or the federal gov their career will be over. Not only they will never got a promotion they could very well face jail time.

So the local (city) does not report it till is too late. If the CCP/federal know about it earlier they will step in earlier IE close the city/provincial sooner, send medical expert it sooner.

Canada should have close it boarder way way back in Jan/Feb but nope we keep an open boarder coz we listen to WHO while other country like US, AUS, TW, Sisingapore and HK just said fuck it and close its boarder or tighten people coming in from China. So far TW, singapore and HK seems to be ahead of everyone.

Our federal gov acted way too late, should we just cut our boarder or even force everyone who arrive in Canada VIA international flight/ships force quarantine and forcing all international travelers and Canadian traveling back to Canada to check into gov facility. Force all of them to stay there for 14 days to make sure they are fine before letting them go back home we would not be in this mess.
