What to make of the blockade ordered by twelve European countries? Will the epidemic be brought under control as a result?

With the second wave of the epidemic coming in a frenzy, as many as 12 countries in Europe have issued blockade orders, but these blockade orders have not been able to completely control the epidemic.

One, the blockade order did not do a complete blockade

While a number of countries in Europe have issued blockade orders, they are not comparable to ours. They have not done a complete lockdown, and many have kept their kindergartens, elementary schools and junior high schools open. And when we were at the height of the epidemic, schools were closed, and online online classes were held everywhere, eliminating the possibility of the epidemic spreading.

Also, while European countries have banned gatherings and other activities, they still haven't banned local residents from going out. It is believed that many more European residents will take to the streets, causing problems for epidemic prevention.

Second, the freedom that the Europeans advocate can't control the virus

Most of the Europeans advocate freedom, and many of them will go out to play for their own comfort. It is this most fundamental reason that can lead to countries not being able to keep everyone honest in their homes.

When our country implemented home segregation, every resident was basically closed at home, not causing trouble for others as well as the country. The Chinese people's superb self-discipline is unmatched by any European country. So when it comes to epidemic control, European countries won't do any better than China.

Third, the lack of medical resources will make it difficult to control the epidemic

European medical conditions are great, but medical resources are also limited. In the face of mass infection of the population, the lack of doctors, equipment will increase the difficulty of epidemic control. This is a test of the local government's medical scheduling ability and the selflessness of the local people.

In our country, it was the aggressive scheduling of medical resources by the state, the unselfish donations from the public, and the overtime work of the health care system that got us through the most dangerous phase of the epidemic. In comparison with European countries, I don't think there is any country that can do what China has done with such unity of purpose.

Summary

European countries have issued blockade orders, but this is only the first step in controlling the outbreak, and there are still challenges to be faced in terms of staff cooperation, policy strength, and scheduling of medical resources. We also wish that European countries will control the epidemic as soon as possible, just like China!
