As an English person living in China for the past 8 years and living through the lockdown I can honestly say it was the right decision. The West was given time to prepare for this virus but most did nothing, in fact they still have not grasped the true extent of the carnage this virus can and is bringing to people's lives. The leaders and the communities of the West have just squandered time and efforts of what Chinese people and foreigners here in China gave them. Help and knowledge of the virus was freely available but all they did was watch and wait instead of acting on the information. China can stand proud of what they achieved and we can all thank President Xi, the medical staff, the military and the Chinese people for the action and care for each other through this very hard time, they won the battle and came out victorious, they gave all, love, care, and even lives to stand together and fight this virus.
