It doesn't help other nations response time when the nation where the virus originated spent a significant amount of time suppressing the existence of the virus, and then spent additional time denying human to human transmission of the virus when it has been proven they knew otherwise.  So yeah, "China fucked up everywhere".

yet with decisive action, like South Korea or Taiwan or Vietnam or Singapore showed, the effects of the outbreak in other countries could've been radically reduced anyway

China deserves blame, so do many others

Those countries did the smart thing and didn't trust a thing WHO or China was putting out there.

China has just revised the numbers for the Wuhan region. Those leaked pictures of the Wuhan crematory working day and night could probably no longer have been suppressed within China...

What leaked pictures of crematories working day and night?

You should check out twitter, there's speculation that the death rate from China is much higher:

Estimates Show Wuhan Death Toll Far Higher Than Official Figure https://t.co/TJ8cJOv9Ew

China most likely suppressed the true number of cases and fatalities of #coronavirus - 2 funeral homes in Wuhan received 6,000 filled cremation urns in the last week. The official government count was 3,200: https://t.co/goa56eaL6m #CoronaLockdown #COVID19

10) “nobody in the city believes the official death toll.

"The official number of deaths was 2,500 people ... but before the epidemic began, the city's crematoriums typically cremated around 220 people a day," #COVID19

The death toll in Wuhan could be around 46,800

The Chinese gov has said it was 2,563

But incinerators have been working 24/7, urns have been delivered everyday in the thousands, and long lines outside funeral homes don't match up with the number reportedhttps://t.co/RdX3eW3QgN

And this is just from Wuhan
