The issue is that coronavirus sounds more like good news in a general sense. The US government has shown some unsurprising carelessness or mismanagement of the threat response, unlike in these crazy totalitarian states like China and Italy, but how should be the agency of anarchists in such a situation of State leniency? Helping in slowing down the spread of the virus?

I know your comment is not about the virus itself (which is still pretty insignificant in the threat it's posing, even if it did spread amazingly well globally) but rather the State's response to it, which in the case of hyper-managerial biopowers like Italy and China is rather crazy. Like I heard about some guy in northern Italy who got his graduation ceremony for his degree over the internet due to the quarantine. How can they respond, other than using the State's despotic response against itself?

As for US anarchists I got zero trust they'll come up with any tangible response besides the equivalent of fixing potholes, or protesting the State's inability to be a consistent biopower. The US appears to be a clusterfuck of bigots and cowards and its "anarchist" scenes gave little benefit of the doubt. Still a country of impostors and wannabe aristocrats.

Ok, there's prisoner support and maybe publishing/podcasts.... but what else?
