I'm no fan of the Chinese government, but

1) their authoritarianism both kick-started this epidemic and bungled the initial response

2) AND seems to have contained the epidemic once its severity was understood.

The US and many other developed countries seem to be on track to bungling their initial response, as well. That's pretty inexcusable since they've had the benefit of months to prepare.

The US government should have paid to build up a test kit stockpile in February, but I guess now we get to see how badly free market principles handle an epidemic.
