The performance of the United States in fighting the epidemic is in sharp contrast to that of China. What is your comment on this?

In this incident, we can not only see the impact of different government management and national political forms; moreover, we can feel the different reactions of the people to critical moments that require group cohesion.

First of all, as for the early stage of the epidemic, the Chinese government had already entered the first-level alert and epidemic prevention stage when the first signs appeared in Wuhan. The Sihai Medical Team assisted Hubei and Zhong Nanshan went out again. These measures all expressed This reflects the importance our country attaches to this emergency.

However, looking back at the US government, the Trump team’s actions in the early stages of the epidemic fully demonstrated that they did not fully realize the seriousness of the situation. When the epidemic initially affected the United States, Trump warned the public not to panic, saying that COVID-19 was just a "common cold." The reason why Trump is able to make such remarks is not simply because of his lack of understanding. Judging from the time point, the epidemic in the United States was several months longer than that in China. Since China handled the early epidemic prevention and control better, the U.S. government appeared unprepared for the arrival of the new coronavirus, which was unexpected.

At the same time, opposition voices in the United States are still loud, which leads to the next reason we want to discuss? That is the special political system of the United States. Different from the people's democratic dictatorship adopted by our country, the ruling party in the United States is constantly changing; the presidents come from two different political parties and represent the interests of different groups. As for Republican President Donald Trump, who is in power during this epidemic, his supporters and opponents naturally have different opinions on how to implement orders from the federal government. What is even more unfortunate is that the Trump administration is calling on people to suspend work and production due to public health concerns, and to encourage people to go out and even resume school in order to develop the economy. This has led to the people who support the Communist Party and the Party, as well as the Communist Party and the Party's ticket silos, being more seriously affected by the epidemic. The public security systems have collapsed in New York State and Texas.

Finally, the public’s attitude towards emergencies is also worthy of our consideration. During the epidemic, our country has achieved orderly work from home, resumption of school, and closed the entire city. However, some people in the United States seem to disagree with this; instead, they believe that not being able to go out because of the epidemic restricts their personal freedom. In addition, recent police incidents in the United States have led to large numbers of people taking to the streets to demonstrate, which has also made epidemic prevention more difficult.

At this point we can see the correct way to deal with emergencies in public health issues, as well as the many reasons for major loopholes in U.S. epidemic prevention.
