With the rapid spread of the Western Christmas holiday and the McMirkron mutation, there have been a spurt of confirmed cases of COVID-19 in major Western countries such as the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia. However, in response to today's failure to fight the epidemic, these countries not only do not look for reasons from themselves, but once again throw the responsibility on China.
Australia blames China for restricting exports
Recently, the cumulative number of confirmed cases of COVID-19 in Australia has exceeded 1 million, while in New South Wales and Victoria alone, the number of new confirmed cases of COVID-19 in a single day on January 10 has reached about 55,000, and the epidemic situation in the whole country is very critical.
The sharp and rapid increase in confirmed cases has also led to a problem, that is, the new crown virus rapid antigen detection kit has been out of stock, and many people in urgent need of testing cannot buy the test kit. But the Australian media did not reflect on its own reasons, but once began to blame China.
According to Australian media reports, some of the medical practitioners they interviewed said that recently, millions of new coronavirus rapid antigen test kits originally planned to be exported from China to Australia have been detained by Chinese customs, and delivery will inevitably be delayed. The Australian media speculated that the main reason behind this was the tension between China and Australia, and began to accuse China of not selling things to Australia.
Britain, the United States, and Australia snatched the kit
It is reported that Australia has currently approved 19 rapid test kits, of which at least 14 are made in China, which has led to Australia's extreme dependence on China to provide anti-epidemic materials.
Coincidentally, not long ago, the United Kingdom also complained that the number of new crown test kits was not enough, and now the most widely used test kits in the United Kingdom are produced by two Chinese manufacturers, one of which is also one of the main imports of new crown kits in the United States. At the moment when The Omilon is menacing, the United Kingdom, the United States, and Australia will inevitably appear in the scene of "snatching China's test kits", and this also provides an excuse for the Australian government to throw the pot at China for its own inability to fight the epidemic: "It's not that we don't want to work hard, it's really a clever woman who can't cook without rice!" ”
However, australian media will not tell their readers that since China controlled the outbreak of the wuhan epidemic and restored production order, in the nine months from March to December 2020 alone, China has exported about 440 billion yuan of epidemic prevention materials, including 224.2 billion masks, 271,000 ventilators, and 1.08 billion new crown virus test kits, almost single-handedly supporting the main demand for medical supplies in many out-of-control countries, including the United States, Britain and Australia.
Now that the outbreak has entered its third year, Australia will still have a shortage of anti-epidemic materials, which is obviously the main responsibility of the Morrison government. They did not produce materials, did not carry out material reserves, and did not even prepare a plan for a shortage of materials. Once China reduces the production of materials due to its own epidemic and gives priority to ensuring its own supply, or the international market demand for Chinese materials exceeds the demand, the Australian people can only have no materials available, which has to be said to be a great sadness for an old developed country like Australia.
