Xi made a big bet on his partnership with Putin. That decision doesn't look so smart right now. Xi has to defend rogue revisionist power. And what does he get in return? A weak, discredited partner with little global respect, who strengthened NATO & US role in the global economy.

The caption says 31K deaths in the US. Imagine what it would have been if we had not done extreme social distancing. Some estimates were for over 2 million US deaths without taking mitigation measures. Not a risk we should be willing to take.
