Weder die USA noch Europa hätten von den Stärken der asiatischen Pandemiebekämpfung gelernt, meint Sachs – also vom großflächigen Testen, von der konsequenten digitalen Kontaktverfolgung sowie von der strikten Quarantäne. Hinzu kämen Mentalitätsunterschiede. In asiatischen Gesellschaften würden Verhaltensweisen als akzeptabel gelten, die die Pandemie eindämmen, etwa das Tragen von Masken, das Abstandhalten und der Verzicht auf Großveranstaltungen. In den USA und Europa hingegen, so Sachs, tue man sich damit schwer.Ich hatte vor einiger Zeit gelesen, das es teilweise noch auf das koloniale Denken zurückgeht, von wegenn, der Westen ist den Leuten dort überlegen. In den Medien ist natürlich auch immer eine sehr westlich orientierte Berichterstattung, Europa + USA und China als Negativ.

For more than two hours on Thursday, June 6, a large chunk of European mobile traffic was rerouted through the infrastructure of China Telecom, China's third-largest telco and internet service provider (ISP).
The incident occurred because of a BGP route leak at Swiss data center colocation company Safe Host, which accidentally leaked over 70,000 routes from its internal routing table to the Chinese ISP.
The Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), which is used to reroute traffic at the ISP level, has been known to be problematic to work with, and BGP leaks happen all the time.
However, there are safeguards and safety procedures that providers usually set up to prevent BGP route leaks from influencing each other's networks.
But instead of ignoring the BGP leak, China Telecom re-announced Safe Host's routes as its own, and by doing so, interposed itself as one of the shortest ways to reach Safe Host's network and other nearby European telcos and ISPs.
It was China Telecom, again. The same ISP accused last year of "hijacking the vital internet backbone of western countries."www.zdnet.com
