Not containing their virus outbreak sooner
REPORT: Coronavirus Outbreak Could Have Been Reduced By 95% If China Acted Sooner
A recently published study from the University of Southampton estimated that the global outbreak of the coronavirus could have been dramatically reduced had China’s communist government acted sooner.
The study relied on research from a population mapping group called “WorldPop,” which created the models that were used in the study.
The research found “that if interventions in [China] could have been conducted one week, two weeks, or three weeks earlier, cases could have been reduced by 66 percent, 86 percent and 95 percent respectively – significantly limiting the geographical spread of the disease.”
The first case of the virus was reportedly detected as early as mid-November of last year.

Instead of lying about it and trying to cover it up:
China Lied And People Died: Chinese Scientists Destroyed Wuhan Coronavirus Evidence in December

And now, there are reports that Chinese scientists destroyed evidence about the virus back in December (via The Times UK):
[...]Chinese laboratories identified a mystery virus as a highly infectious new pathogen by late December last year, but they were ordered to stop tests, destroy samples and suppress the news, a Chinese media outlet has revealed.
A regional health official in Wuhan, centre of the outbreak, demanded the destruction of the lab samples that established the cause of unexplained viral pneumonia on January 1. China did not acknowledge there was human-to-human transmission until more than three weeks later.
The detailed revelations by Caixin Global, a respected independent publication, provide the clearest evidence yet of the scale of the cover-up in the crucial early weeks when the opportunity was lost to control the outbreak. Censors have been rapidly deleting the report from the Chinese internet.
And how Drumpf did the right thing stopping travel to/from China as early as he did, even though he was criticized doing so:

“Hopefully they don't keep it as a cover, as a reason to exclude more people from the country,” Dalal-Dheini said. “We just need to be very vigilant and make sure it’s not being used as a guise.”
The Trump administration has systematically sought to reduce access to a variety of legal pathways to immigration in the United States, slashing refugee resettlement numbers to historic lows and effectively blocking asylum seekers from requesting protections at the border. It recently won permission from the Supreme Court for immediate implementation of a regulation that would exclude many foreigners without financial means.

The effort to ban Chinese students was reportedly pushed by Stephen Miller, the senior White House adviser who has been instrumental in crafting the administration’s hard-line immigration policies, and who advocated for it as a way to combat Chinese espionage.

Still, he warned that “it wouldn't be surprising if the effect of this new policy was somewhat discriminatory.”
“We live in a time where there is rising xenophobia and nationalism, and governments might feel more comfortable taking extreme measures to exclude foreigners under the pretext of a public health emergency,” Carter said.
Which bought states some time to prepare for the Wuhan virus outbreak:
