Not too long ago, the news came out that Shanghai has gone in lockdowns due to surging C-19 cases. China has adopted zero COVID policy and they are straight going for the kill and not letting the virus spread.

Something we have been doing for at least a year and a half before vaccines came out. But shhhhh.

Since the new came out, everyone in the western hemisphere is mad that Shanghai is in lockdowns. The news is tarnishing China’s reputation that this will cause havoc on global supply chains and major American factories have been shut down ( I don’t name names, you can google).

I ask you, what about for last two years? Now everyone is suddenly blaming Communist China?

To be clear, I am not condoning Chinese actions, I truly believe government powers to shut down are being abused here. Something that should never have been allowed.

Instead of getting mad at China’s lockdowns, it is time we hold our bureaucrats accountable for their actions of past two years. The damage caused by the lockdowns is far worse than hospital crisis. Mind you, the hospitals are in same state as they were before the pandemic. Still short of beds and ICU, still not enough nurses and doctors.
