You don't need to force China to pay. Typically what is done is that foreign assets are legally seized, for example, Chinese state assets in the West, if China refuses to pay for damages.

The “west” could absolve all foreign debt to China both in 1st world and 3rd world countries as payment for covid liability.

The only action China could do would be to start a world war 3 in response.
