Not quite so simple, I'm afraid. It is the difference between China setting a trap and having it work too well (as your post implied) vs China warning everyone of a trap but seeing them step in it anyway.

And yet my country has defied the rest of the world in it's handling of the China virus.
 
truly amazing constructs on top of FoxNews.com right now (

); one example:
Intelligence experts stress that the attempt to usurp the U.S. as the global superpower is at the heart of their brutal dismantling of intelligence operations within the country.

guess it's time to repeat

...

the West has been suspicious about China

(if you were recently reading US military outlets like DefenseNews etc., you'd see many articles going like
Pentagon's priority is China threat Pentagon's priority is China threat Pentagon's priority is China threat Pentagon's priority is China threat),

but at the same time the West missed the pandemic,

so now administrations and institutions like the CIA, NSA, MI6 etc. will try to cover their, ehm, backs

Uhhhh... You sure you know what you are talking about? "Defied the rest of the world"??? So the rest of the world told your country not to handle the virus, but you did it anyway??? Are you accusing all the countries in the world of forcing you to ignore the COVID-19, but you "defied that order"and treated the virus seriously? Can you give us an example? Which countries gave you that order? And how did you "defy" that order?
