The COVID-19 patronage and the art of deception

In April 2020, the government declared a State of Emergency to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic that had started five months earlier in China.

Three months into the State of Emergency, there seems to be no coherent strategy about how to deal with the pandemic. The COVID-Task Team appears to be incompetent and to be riddled with conflict and professional rivalries. There seems to be a power struggle at the top. You can never know who is charge between doctors in the Presidential COVID-19 Task Team.
