Of course I am. I’m pointing a finger at China and it’s absolute mockery of health standards. If it only affected China then no issue from me. But it doesn’t, and this isn’t the first time they’ve done it. If we don’t point fingers now, then the next time might be too late for all of us. I’m sure you are ok in your high tower, thinking beautiful thoughts for everyone, but meanwhile here on planet Earth this disgrace of a Chinese government needs calling out on it.....

This.
But as I've said before - who has the clout to get them to put their house in order?
The USA? maybe, but with Trumpesque diplomacy, would they even listen.
China is everybodies biggest supplier/customer
But the rest of the world is their biggest customer/supplier.

No man is an island entire of itself; every man
is a piece of the continent, a part of the main;

because I am involved in mankind.
And therefore never send to know for whom
the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.
