Why can India win in the face of the epidemic?

Many people in Weibo have asked me why there is no epidemic in India these two days. After all, I am an "Indian blogger", I can't hang up on the spot, my heart is close to collapse, and so on. When did I become an Indian blogger? This is swearing, okay?

However, I soon realized that I had said too much about India in Weibo during this time, so I simply wrote a long article about India and shared it with you.

I know India very well. I used to be a part-time java training lecturer in our company. An Indian apprentice is very active. He has often taken the initiative to chat with me for several years. It feels like I've lived there for years. Moreover, my little friend who joined me at the beginning happened to be a small leader in India. He worked in India for seven or eight years and managed an Asan Group. He has a touching understanding of Ah San. Almost all his topics are about Sam.

First of all, we want to say that we don't want to say much about India's burial in this article, just a few words.

We often support people who have been buried in India online. In fact, if you go to India, you will understand that what is said online is not completely correct. Most parts of India are not buried at all, but they are too special to live. Only a few rich areas in China can reach the level of ordinary communities.

A year ago, a colleague went to India on business. He said that he didn't fall asleep at all on the first day, because the sheets and pillows of the hotel where he stayed for more than 600 yuan a night smelled of suspicious dead mice, and he even brought a sleeping bag. Mumbai-like "Indian new york" lies on the side of the road, covered with flies. If he hadn't turned over occasionally, he would have thought they were dead and there were all kinds of excrement lying with them.

Moreover, I always thought that the matter of floating bodies in the river was arranged. It was not until I saw the photos sent back by my colleagues that I realized that I was too young, so I stopped putting pictures for fear of making everyone sick. In fact, it was not everywhere. You must visit India for a few more days to see it. Let's put a less worrying picture. Feel at will:

Speaking of which, you may have to ask, India is so chaotic that it is easy to have an accident. Why hasn't it happened yet?

India and China are not the same thing at all. Actually, it's different from other countries.

We know that the government's exercise of power is conveyed by first-class bureaucrats, and finally implemented by grassroots civil servants. These civil servants are under the command of the document system and carry out the will of the state. For example, in this war epidemic, the state issued documents, and the localities implemented them according to their own conditions.

On the other hand, civil servants find out the problem and then feed back through the paper system. When they found something wrong at the grassroots level, they made a decision through these documents, either mobilizing on a large scale like China or paying homage to Darwin like Singapore.

But India is different. India is a bit like Turkey mentioned earlier, both of which are "dual countries". What is a dual country? That is, cities are no different from modern countries. But at the grassroots level, the villagers, who account for the vast majority of the population, are completely another world. There are no bureaucrats in the village, and they are all managed by local chiefs and religious leaders.

This is very similar to the Qing Dynasty, where grassroots officials were assigned to the county magistrate level, and further down, it was up to the squires and elders from all over the country. The elders are highly respected and usually manage the village. When things happen, they must stand up and speak for the whole village. Sometimes they are also called "talkers"

One advantage of this system is that the national cost is low. After all, it takes money to raise so many civil servants and officials. However, the problem is also obvious. The country under this model has no idea what is going on at the grassroots level, and it is completely blind. So all parts of India are a pile of bad debts, and they don't quite understand it themselves.

Such a country is generally divided, and the leader is like a schizophrenic, because he has to show two faces, one for urban citizens. At this time, he is a modern leader, often in a suit and tie. There is another face in the village for the village cannon to see. At this time, leadership is like a magic wand.

You can often see that Erdogan in Turkey and Modi in India are often normal today and become goddesses the next day, because they have to deal with the established modern citizens and the ancient goddesses in the village at the same time, and their identities have to switch back and forth, which we outsiders often don't understand.

It's the same in India. When people travel, they often go to places like Mumbai and New Delhi, which are very "advanced" in India. In that place, they feel dirty and messy, and the streets are full of outrageous traffic lights and retrograde cars, which is a bit like the small county town and office building on the 18th Line of China, and they can feel the breath of modern civilization. After all, they can go to the relevant government agencies to do things.

But in the village, it is completely different. The Indian state machine basically does not go deep into the grassroots, relying on countless "native States" and "tribes", which is a bit like the form of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The imperial power does not go down to the county, and the imperial power can only be distributed to the county officials, and then the people will govern themselves.

Think about it, a group of ordinary people, who don't look for the government? How to be independent?

Religious leaders, local old people, extended families and so on, so when you watch Indian movies occasionally, you will find that their villages are full of women-like people who ask her everything and even go there to see a doctor. This is the feudal legacy of "breaking capitalism". When there is a local conflict, everyone's first reaction is not to go to the police station. If you can solve it yourself, solve it yourself. If you can't solve it, you can go to other respected bosses and ask them to uphold justice.

You might say, isn't that good?

Of course not. In this case, the grassroots in India reported nothing, and the government didn't know what happened at the grassroots, so it was nothing.

For example, you know, India is a big rape country. One woman is raped every 13 minutes, and six women are gang-raped every day. However, this data is not official in India, but is counted by non-governmental organizations. Indian official data is not like this. Rape is uncommon. Why?

Because people don't report to the police, I saw a data that 99.8% of rape cases in India don't report to the police, and the grassroots solve them themselves, so the Indian government doesn't know what the situation is.

Not only does India not report to the police, but almost everything is solved naturally at the grassroots level. In fact, if you have experience in living in the village, you also find that villagers never go to the police station and rarely call the police. Therefore, India is an embarrassing country. Few things can be noticed by the government in its infancy, and they often get out of control before being noticed by the government. At this time, the fire will be put out quickly.

Therefore, my colleagues have been suffering every day during this period, because the whole of India is going to work as usual without wearing a mask. Now he looks at everyone like a virus carrier.

Let's enlighten him. Only one or two cases have been found in India. What are you afraid of?

He said you didn't know anything. Everything in India is very casual. Thousands of people who have not died of illness may not be able to notice the epidemic. Moreover, these people who have died of illness have to live in big cities. People in small places generally think he is possessed by ghosts and don't go to the hospital at all And they often exorcise ghosts when they go to the hospital. Medical care in India is free, but medical facilities are needed. No, there is no electricity in many parts of India, so we can only rely on exorcism.

You may think it's amazing, but it's actually good. There are even more amazing things. For example, my apprentice, born in Brahman, India, belongs to the upper class. He went to the Indian Institute of Technology, he can write code, configure a large national router and play the piano, but he still can't hide the fact that he is a magic stick.

He told me more than once that he had never been ill since he was a child, but he wore a small circle on his hand, which was yellow, and he was not allowed to take pictures, otherwise I would take a picture of you, which was a bit like a bracelet worn by our girls. He said that in India, only their Brahmins can wear this cotton thing. After wearing it, not only did the virus spread everywhere, but the lower classes in India also had to spread everywhere. If the lower class people hit this thing, they will be reborn as broilers in their next life.

Later, he said that Indians are different from China people, and they are very open-minded about life and death. Many old Indians are sick and don't go to see it. When you understand reincarnation, you will look down on life and death.

I know that most rich people in our country are superstitious, but I am still stunned by his rhetoric. You know, life expectancy in India is eight years less than that in China, and the reason is obvious.

In this context, the Indian people have great distrust of the government, and it is not China's distrust. People in China often think that there are corrupt officials in the government, but they still believe that the government can't solve the problem as long as it pays attention to it and makes up its mind to solve it.

The Indian people don't trust the government at all, because there is no government in many parts of India, especially in the southern States. Many villages are semi-closed, and people don't let outsiders in or ask for help.

It is said on the Internet that India has never been infected with infectious diseases, but it is not. There are not only infectious diseases in India, not to mention those large-scale infectious diseases. Plague, smallpox, malaria, and many infectious diseases that have been eradicated in China are still raging. For example, Nipah virus, plague, swine flu, swine flu, encephalitis, avian flu and dengue fever have all been prevalent in India in recent years, and some of them have made a lot of noise. Thousands of people die of swine flu every year in India.

So, my colleagues in India are struggling now. Now the situation in India is "Schrodinger virus". It is possible that Indians are physically specific and can resist this wave of pneumonia virus or curry virus. But it may have spread at the grassroots level, and the whole country is completely unaware of it.

Moreover, he is afraid of being filled with cow urine, which is true. A few days ago, the Indian Prime Minister said that "cow urine can treat coronavirus". Today, people in the Indian Ministry of Health are also advocating cow urine, and Indians still believe in it. Many drinks and biscuits in India contain cow dung and cow urine, which protects the body and mind of Indians in all aspects.

2. Unreliable Indians

I have dealt with Indians, and I am awesome if I am not angry.

Indians seem to be attached to everything, and always seem to be inseparable from it. The big deal is to continue in the afterlife.

A few years ago, there was one thing that made me feel deeply, and it was always regarded as a negative case of the company.

At that time, there was a computer room near Mumbai, which somehow stopped running, causing hundreds of thousands of people in Delhi to be disconnected from the internet all day. This is a very serious matter in China, and many people will definitely be held accountable.

But Indians are indifferent, and responsible leaders are calm. There is only one key in the computer room, but the buddy with the key can't get through. The leader of India calls the boy every half hour. It took half a day to remember that the boy was in the disconnected area, so he sent someone to look for him. People in various manufacturers here are worried that the ultimate responsibility will fall on themselves.

After a whole day, I finally found the boy. When I went to the computer room, the mouse gnawed at the cable and looked for wires everywhere. After changing the wires, the equipment finally turned up, and everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief. I didn't expect this to happen after three times. Why? Because Indian mice seem to like the power cord very much, they chew it once every once in a while to let them block the mouse hole. They won't go anyway.

Later, our side really couldn't hold back. In this way, they will have nothing to do, and our side will not be held accountable.

But he didn't trust Indians very much, so he found a communication engineer in the department. His father was a mason. He worked on the construction site last summer. He flew to India to buy a bag of cement and went to the computer room to plug the mouse hole. The boy sent a photo of him mixing cement in India in a circle of friends. His sister was shocked and thought that he had been kidnapped to India as a black worker.

After the rat hole was blocked, there were no more rats in the next few years, but the air conditioner broke down several times. As we all know, the air conditioner in the computer room dissipates heat. The air conditioner is broken and the equipment is easy to overheat and burn out. That air conditioner has not been repaired until now. After all, no one here can do air conditioning.

If you have dealt with Indians, you will almost inevitably experience this unique helplessness and bad heart when dealing with Indians. When you think that the whole country is basically full of such people, you will know how terrible the epidemic is.

For example, in 1984, an appalling major accident occurred in India, that is, the Bhopal gas leakage accident, which is very similar to the incident in which a mouse chewed on a data line, and it was also improperly operated at ordinary times. There was no person in charge at the scene, and several people looked at the jar containing highly toxic pesticides as leisurely as watching huskies. The Americans gave them several sets of security systems, which basically stopped in the end.

Besides, Indians have a fish-like memory. They only have a few seconds. You tell him something, and then you turn around and forget it. You are almost never on time when you make an appointment to do something together. Even their trains and planes are not on time. It is almost common for trains to be delayed for an hour or two.

But the Indians want you to do something, but they are anxious. Moreover, it seems to be a culture. Indians themselves know that their compatriots are unreliable, so they have learned to be "strict with themselves", but they lack a habit of being strict with themselves. If they can fool, they will fool.

What's more, Indians have a strange assimilation ability. As we said before, Islam, a religion that pays attention to equality, has also been marked with obvious Indian characteristics after entering India, and has even been graded into Islam with Indian characteristics, which is incredible. My colleague is, he scolds Indians every day for being unreliable, unreliable and unpunctual. However, after staying there for several years, he has become such a person. After returning home, everyone invited him to dinner, but he never arrived.

Although my colleague is going to be an Indian, his criticism of India is very sharp.

He doesn't believe a word the Indian government says, but it's not that they deliberately lie. But they have no ideas at all, no ideas from top to bottom, and almost no serious people. Those core cities are still so confused. After all, they have been dealing with Americans for a long time, and they are repaired by Americans every day, more or less.

Others are a great group of people. Some time ago, Indians evacuated 700 people from Wuhan. They said that none of them were found, maybe they were not found, maybe they were not found at all, or they sampled a few, or even used the wrong test paper. These things can happen in this mysterious country of India.

Many China friends who have been to India share the same feeling that "only Indians are good Indians". As we all know, India is one of the most polarized countries on earth. The rich are ridiculously rich, and the poor can make do with it, but it is not impossible.

India's unfairness is reflected at all levels. Employees of our company usually go to private hospitals when they are sick in India, and ordinary Indians usually go to public hospitals. The principle of their public hospitals is to "manage what is at hand". We know that India has been openly producing various western medicines on a large scale.

The cost of these drugs is not high, mainly because the research and development costs are ridiculously high. India does not need research and development, and the medical cost is much lower at once. The west wants to do human experiments in India, so it turns a blind eye.

This has an obvious advantage. If you know what disease you have and what medicine you need, that medicine can be produced in India, and India will become a paradise at this time. Many people in our country "travel for medical treatment" and play with this thing. Think about it, a box of medicine often costs five or six thousand yuan, and it can be sold for five or six hundred yuan in India, and the air ticket is not expensive. Wouldn't it be more cost-effective

In addition, if you have money, it is not bad in India. Many doctors in India's top private hospitals are trained in the United States, both in cultivation and quality. They are not as expensive as America, and certainly not cheap. Among several protagonists in The Big Bang Theory, Sam, India, is the richest, because his father is an Indian gynecologist, and he doesn't have to consider being a private hospital. Good doctors in India are often rich enough to make people doubt their lives.

The richest people in India, doctors, lawyers, engineers and certified public accountants, are so rich that people doubt their lives, while others are so poor that they doubt their lives. For example, many people in Mumbai work 12 hours a day and earn 500 to 600 RMB a month.

As for public hospitals, that's natural. Hospitals are often similar to community hospitals in China, and doctors often can't give you blood tests and urine tests. How can serious doctors go to such places? Therefore, the quality of medical care can be imagined, and drugs are often prescribed according to the stock of hospitals. India also likes to prescribe antibiotics, so it is often seen on TV that "super bacteria" always appear in India and are immune to all antibiotics.

India has absorbed the advantages of the United States. If the hospital has painkillers, Indian doctors are very willing to prescribe them for everyone. Generally speaking, we say that "China abuses antibiotics and the United States abuses painkillers", while India abuses both.

And abuse cow urine, if the condition is uncertain, then drink some cow urine, anyway, it will not die, the situation will not get worse, why not try it? Moreover, former Indian Prime Minister Desai explained to the media during his visit to the United States that he was still in high spirits in his 80 s because he insisted on drinking cow urine every day, which is the most nutritious drink in the world. And I brought some to the United States to let the Americans who like it present try it. Everyone said thank you. No, next time.

However, what we are talking about is that in Indian cities, the situation in villages is more complicated and strange. One year, I saw a news that a famous Indian witch accidentally burned herself to death when she used lighted alcohol and mercury to exorcise ghosts from patients. Feel this agricultural heavy metal punk.

And you still remember the book "The Essence of Poverty", which repeatedly talked about how to promote vaccines in India with a little knowledge of economics. India has never been able to solve the vaccination problem, and the state machine is inefficient. Feel it.

However, Indian people don't like vaccination, and others have their own reasons. The communication between the vast rural areas in India is much weaker and the traffic is extremely poor, which makes it difficult for Indian hospitals to vaccinate everyone in the village and it is difficult for the virus to reach the village. After all, Indian trains are lost faster than bicycles, and the urbanization rate is 20 points worse than that of China at home. Most people are isolated islands, so they are safer to some extent.

To sum up:

1. India has not actually avoided those large-scale epidemics, such as the Black Death and malaria. There have been various infectious diseases almost every year in recent years, but no one has mentioned them.

2. India, an overall low-mobility society, can shield the virus to some extent. When a virus enters a village, it often can't get out. China did not have such a serious situation in 2003, because there was no high-speed rail at that time, and the virus spread slowly.

3. If the death rate is only 2% and the virus mainly targeting the elderly is circulating in rural India, it may not be noticed by everyone, especially the Indian government.

I also communicated with my disciples a few days ago. He said that if an epidemic as big as China occurred in India, it would definitely not be like China. Indians regard many disasters as a kind of "Du Jie", so they will not actively seek solutions, and there is probably no way to solve them.

We can only wait for the disaster to pass by itself, just as no one has solved the storm. India has experienced ups and downs for thousands of years, mainly by lying down. And many Indian operations in China can't be handled. For example, once the country is ordered to enter a state of near combat readiness, materials can continue to be supplied, and India will not make similar attempts at all.

After WeChat was sent out yesterday, many people asked why there are so many Indian cattle in the United States.

There are many reasons for this. Let me give you a few examples:

First of all, there are a large number of Indians overseas. Americans are not used to it, and they are a little uncomfortable. They immediately hit people when they are down and let them feel the critical attack of capitalism. In this context, American Indians were chosen by evolution.

Secondly, I have to admit that despite many shortcomings, Indians are very enthusiastic, willing to chat with everyone, and good at blending with others, and Indians are very supportive of each other. China people are not very good at this. Most overseas Chinese are mixed in the Chinese community. I don't know whether this is an advantage or a disadvantage.

Finally, some American scholars pointed out that sooner or later, the American technology industry was pitted by India, not to mention not being warned.
