Since the outbreak of coronavirus, not much has been heard from the large number of China believers, who helped perpetuate the notion China was liberalising.
Averages are useful, to know where we're at in dealing with the pandemic, but there will be further flare-ups, easily large enough to overwhelm local resources.

China is doing it to US and other western nations by throwing economic/commercials benefits and influencing via an idea that economic benefits by/from/of China are needed to uplift US and other western nations. China has over decades fooled the western countries.
Agreed. I am currently reading Michael Pillsbury’s famous book, “ The Hundred-Year Marathon”. The contents of the book are shocking. The book reveals how China has duped USA, the ‘ba’- the hegemon or boss to avenge a century of humiliation and to replace USA as the economic , military and political leader of the world by 2049 or the one hundredth year of Communist Revolution in China. This master plan is known as “ the Hundred-Year Marathon“. One may concede that China has almost achieved this target by employing strategies used in the “Warring States” phase in the Chinese history, wherein five states conspired against others to gain prominence and victory by using deception as the main weapon. Thus the challenger would pretend to be a very weak, unambitious state and never reveal to the ‘ba’ its real intentions until it becomes possible to strike with vengeance and claim victory. The strategy also has a surprise weapon called as ‘shashoujian” or Assassin’s Mace which will employed at a critical juncture to surprise the adversary. Is Covid-19 China’s ‘ shashoyjian’?

And since 2012 they have ringfenced their infrastructure and are dismissive USA in general and west in particular.
