China's Beating the Coronavirus — So Why Aren't We Learning From Them?
In this segment of By Any Means Necessary, hosts Sean Blackmon and Jacquie Luqman are joined by John Ross, Senior Fellow at Chongyang Institute—Renmin University of China and an award-winning resident columnist with several Chinese media organizations, to talk about the lack of actions being taken to prepare for the Coronavirus in the US and UK, why the caseload in China is reducing while increasing virtually everywhere else, how the systemic prioritization of naked profit precludes capitalist governments from responding to the crisis in a rational manner, what the willingness of various public officials to permit an outbreak reveals about the value they place on human life, and why the most vulnerable members of our society are most likely to face the consequences as the US government appears set to learn a very harsh lesson in epidemiological containment.
