Western countries: This new virus comes from some weird foreign country. It is dangerous and the foreigners aren't doing enough to control it! Oh, we have it now? Uh, actually, it's not possible to control it, we're just going to let it run its course and hope for the best. Oh, millions are getting sick? Uh um, it's actually fine, it's just a light fever, everyone has it, washing your hands is weird and undemocratic, bye
