Then, many people will wonder, the United States is also a developed country, why can't it prevent the epidemic? In fact, there are several reasons why the United States cannot prevent the epidemic:
First, because the United States missed the golden period, the epidemic broke out in many places. So far, there have been many outbreaks in the United States, especially in new york and New Jersey, which are separated from Manhattan by a river. At the same time, many places may become new outbreaks, especially New Orleans, Louisiana and Detroit, Michigan. Urban areas are densely populated and there are many poor people. Recently, the number of cases has increased rapidly, and there is a risk of becoming the second or third new york.
Secondly, due to the particularity of the American system, it is difficult for the Federation and the States to develop in a highly coordinated manner. The epidemic broke out all over the United States, and the States were at war with each other, and the medical and health systems in many States were overloaded. At the same time, States compete with each other for federal resources and bid for medical and protective materials.
Third, due to the different prevention and control efforts in different States, the virus is easy to spread across States. The federal government of the United States is not well prepared for the epidemic, and there are also problems in the cooperation between States. The information release of the White House and public health experts is sometimes inconsistent, and there are differences between Trump and Democratic governors from time to time.
The fourth is because the epidemic has spread too widely. Nowadays, due to the initial inaction of the US government, the epidemic has spread on a large scale, and there are many infected people among ordinary people. Even in American upper class, many people suffer from COVID-19. With such a large spread, it is even more difficult to prevent the epidemic. In fact, so far, confirmed cases have appeared in the White House, the Senate and the House of Representatives, the Pentagon, the Central Intelligence Agency and the Department of Homeland Security. In new york and other places, the epidemic has reached a very serious level, especially in African-American groups, and there are countless infected people, which also leads to a very tight local medical system. The COVID-19 epidemic has led to a continuous decline in the US economy and a sharp rise in the unemployment rate. If the epidemic situation is not well controlled, this situation will be more serious.
It is precisely because of the above reasons that the United States can't prevent the epidemic. In short, the United States cannot stop the epidemic because of "freedom."
