Why does everyone say China or other Countries don't have covid-19 as bad anymore...?

I think comparing our governments or government to the Chinese is frankly offensive. Obviously people in China when they are told by the their government to follow regulations they do because if you are caught outside they will take you away in a van and never been see again or breaking the rules... well you just wouldn't want to be caught. Obviously being in a nice society trump or Boris don't have these options. You cant go around in the UK and leave people to die etc because that's not how our Countries are. The Chinese wouldn't give you furlough. If the Chinese said to stay inside and you didn't have any food available you would starve because they listen to the military. I think some people are delusional... if you like the Chinese methods so much why don't you tried living there because i think Boris Johnson is doing a fantastic job and what is expected.

    New Zealand never had it bad either, and they are similar to the U.S. and the UK in a lot of ways, including being English-speaking.  Trump and Boris Johnson probably could have done what most of what Jacinda Ardern did -- with one exception: rather than allow any in-person voting, New Zealand actually postponed its election, which would not be allowed in the U.S.

    "I think comparing our governments or government to the Chinese is frankly offensive"

    Who should people compare themselves with?

    The USA?   Nobody's got it as bad as the USA.

    New Zealand?   They managed to eliminate it.

    Britain, on total lockdown?  No thank you  :)

    Who should Canada for example use as a comparative?
