What "misled" the United States and western countries to judge the epidemic situation in COVID-19 after they missed the best opportunity for epidemic prevention?

It is not only the United States and western countries that missed the best epidemic prevention time, but all countries with epidemic situation in the world missed the best epidemic prevention time, wasting the time won by China.

1, the self-righteous thought of western countries. Western countries always thought that the epidemic would not spread to their own countries, so when the epidemic broke out in China, they took care of nothing and did not give us any assistance under any circumstances. Where does our country study the virus and isolate the epidemic? Western countries such as Italy are still holding various gatherings as usual. After the first confirmed case appeared, the Italian government still ignored it.

2. Many western and American governments do not attach importance to it, and neither do the people. Many governments in western countries have not paid enough attention to this epidemic, not only the government but also the people. In western countries, if you go around now, you can find that many westerners don't wear masks when they go out. The shortage of masks is understandable, but look at America. The previous incident only took away tens of millions of masks we sold to France. What is the result? Many people still go their separate ways, don't wear masks, and even get together to go shopping in the mall. There are now 240,000 confirmed cases in the United States. I think it is only a matter of time before the American government and people continue to do so.

Western countries thought that the virus broke out in our country, but it was not. Many western countries think that the virus only exists in China, which leads to their misjudgment, because from the current research situation, the origin of the virus is likely to start in the United States. They think that people who block our country will be fine, but they don't know that Americans are the biggest pathogens.

To sum up, the United States and many western countries missed the best epidemic prevention time mainly because the government took it for granted that blocking our country would be fine. Unexpectedly, Americans are the ultimate boss. As a result, the epidemic situation in western countries and the United States became more and more serious, and they paid the price for their actions after all.
