bureaucratic bungling and authoritarian practices slowed China’s response to
the coronavirus. A New York Times piece documents many of these failings. But,

“Beijing acted against the
coronavirus with stunning force, as its official narratives recount. But not
before a political logjam had allowed a local outbreak to kindle a global
pandemic.”
