I hope it's clear that I wasn't serious with the last two messages by
the way.

I'm pretty sick of the conspiracy theories at this point.
The only
"evidence" anyone has pointed me at so far is nut-case
bloggers. You're
implying that the quarantine could have been perfect except they
intentionally let some people out who were destined to specific
countries. That's not realistic.
Quarantines always leak and the leak gets bigger over time.
You let
somebody out because they're important or necessary to have
outside the
quarantine, then they want to get their family and friends
out, so they
pull strings or sneak them out. That's the early leaks. Nobody
realistically encircles the whole province, so it's only
effective until
people decide not to stay anymore. That's where the leak gets
bigger. A
quarantine is a best effort. It's also understood that
bureaucrats in
China are not adverse to taking bribes (I'm sure some of ours
do too).
"Closing a border" is only going to work when people actually
are
willing to comply with the order not to cross.
So to think a quarantine in Wuhan was going to be perfect
except for
when they wanted it to be is not realistic. As a parallel
incident,
even the actual fascist gestapo couldn't keep all the Jews in
Germany.
You haven't gone as far as to claim that the Chinese created
the virus,
but in case you were wondering: actual subject matter experts
have been
quite clear that this is a natural mutation of an existing
virus. How
they know that is beyond my ken, but I'm more inclined to
believe them
than to believe randos on the Internet.
There's nobody to blame for this. The Chinese didn't create
the virus
in a lab. The Chinese didn't attack us with a virus. Until
you see
some credible evidence to the contrary I would appreciate not
hearing
more about it. It might give you a direction in which to
channel your
frustrations, but it adds nothing useful to the discussion
and provides
no solutions.
