Criticism of government incompetence in responding to the COVID-19 epidemic; homophonic play on "coronavirus" (guānzhuàng bìngdú 冠状病毒, swapping the character "crown" guān 冠 for "official" guān 官).

For example, netizens fumed over the [1] 2020 CCTV Spring Festival Gala], broadcast, which came in the throes of Wuhan's lockdown. Anger piqued especially when Jackie Chan sang, "Show me where China looks sick" (问我国家哪像染病). One netizen wrote, "[...T]he bureaucravirus is spreading, the sick are pleading for help, doctors are sounding the alarm... and a pop star is asking where China looks sick?"
