Chinese citizens: "What pandemic?"

The Chinese government was able to control the pandemic because they are authoritarian. Meanwhile Florida just received 14 portable morgues.

Before I get the "Fake News" crowd coming at me...I was on a video conference call last week with my Chinese counterparts in my company (my first meeting) and I was taken aback when everyone in the conference room didn't have masks...then I remember their spread is basically nill.

I mean the virus came from China so I guess they didn't do that great of a job of controlling it. Not only that but can we really trust the numbers China is reporting? They have been completely non-compliant with investigations which could have resulted in saved lives. Lots of people (most?) in the US seem to have the same brazen attitude of not wearing masks in crowded spaces. Not long ago CDC was advising that people who are fully vaccinated don't need to wear masks in crowded public spaces.
