My post about excess mortality:
viewtopic.php?f=40&t=178554&start=3860#p15237181
It absolutely had an argument. Namely that excess mortality is the relevant statistic and that many countries did well in that regard. USA is not the measure of all things and nobody believes so except China shills in their psychotic episodes of whataboutism.
Besides, mortality among young people was particularly low during the pandemic, because the lockdown prevented young people from going out and getting killed in the process. Yet nobody wants an enternal lockdown because of that. There's always a trade-off between freedom and safety.
Nonsense. China did well for a long time but they totally didn't get the off-ramp while other countries with similar zero-Covid policy did.
NGOs critical of the regime get banned in those countries, Western or not.

You have no argument that is relevant pertaining to how China is handling the pandemic, when you consider the extremely few deaths from Covid=19. All you do is present a definitive anti-China bias.

Allegations of pro-Western bias
This includes non-Western governments claiming Amnesty is ideologically biased against them, such as those of the Democratic Republic of the Congo,[3] the People's Republic of China,[4] Vietnam,[5] and Russia[6] who have criticized Amnesty International for what they assert is one-sided reporting or a failure to treat threats to security as a mitigating factor. The actions of these governments—and of other governments critical of Amnesty International—have been the subject of human rights concerns voiced by Amnesty.
