The United States and China have entered into a feud on the deals they have made each other to ship and receive medical equipment, especially the United States receiving necessary medical equipment from China. The shipments of medical equipment have been unexpectedly delayed because the Chinese government has implemented new regulations to respond to complaints of low quality equipment being sold to different countries that are receiving medical equipment to mitigate the spread of COVID-19. The United States is also reconsidering buying medical equipment from China because it does not want it to give it a political propaganda leverage. Currently the two superpowers are trying to put a front to the world of being in control during the spread of COVID-19 while the United States has become suspicious of China's new "donation diplomacy".
