For me this isn't about being slow to react; on that measure you're absolutely right. But the issue is the initial suppression of the news about the new virus: that you most certainly would not have seen in any Western country. Then, as I said earlier, you have China's blocking of Taiwan from the WHO and the deliberate and systematic propaganda campaign to try to deflect responsibility.
I could add to the list Chinese manufacturers profiting from producing sub-standard products such as testing kits and PPE.
