I know right? It's amazing what proper governmental response and civic mindedness of the populace can do.

The consequences were way better than the let 'er rip nations. If China had a death toll equivalent to the United States, they'd have 5 million dead. Even the "China is lying" people are talking about hundreds of thousands, or possibly a million, not 5 million.
Staying COVID-zero until better treatments and vaccines are available actually does save lives.
