Beschreibung

This pattern is not new. In 2019, a deadly pig virus called African swine fever started out as a local problem but eventually grew into a national crisis and a global threat. During the 2003 SARS epidemic, China was accused of hiding critical information and exacerbating the spread of the virus.
