Not that Trump’s been good to anyone, but it’s hilarious how wumaos can interpret anything as “serving the best interest of the Chinese”. A consulate being shut down serves their best interest, a busted spy serves their best interest, next we are probably gonna hear mentally-challenged statements like “half of China drowned by floods actually serves China’s best interests.” Lol.

Number of doctors, hospital beds, medicines and money are all important. Countries have different amounts.
Different countries' rates such as smokers, obesity etc correlate with effects of Covid to societies in addition to very different measures to tackle the pandemic.

They are not leaving because they have bad relationship, they are leaving because they percieve China as an equal or better place to live than America.
