“China’s life expectancy is great and didn’t suffer at all even from the pandemic!”

I know right? It's amazing what proper governmental response and civic mindedness of the populace can do.

The consequences were way better than the let 'er rip nations. If China had a death toll equivalent to the United States, they'd have 5 million dead. Even the "China is lying" people are talking about hundreds of thousands, or possibly a million, not 5 million.
Staying COVID-zero until better treatments and vaccines are available actually does save lives.
Sure, but you're whatabouting an injustice of some people being temporarily detained to FOUR MILLION LIVES. If that was actually all it took, that's a pretty reasonable exchange.
