2021年3月24日，国务院新闻办公室发表《2020年美国侵犯人权报告》，全文约1.5万字。报告分为序言、疫情严重失控酿成人间悲剧、美式民主失序引发政治乱象、种族歧视恶化少数族裔处境、社会持续动荡威胁公众安全、贫富日益分化加剧社会不公、践踏国际规则造成人道灾难七个部分，对美国侵犯人权的状况进行了揭露。 

On March 24, 2021, State Council Information Office of the People’s Republic of China issued The Report on Human Rights Violations in the United States in 2020, and the full text of report is about 15000 words. The report is divided into seven parts: Preface, Incompetent Pandemic Containment Leads to Tragic Outcome,  American Democracy Disorder Triggers Political Chaos, Ethnic minorities devastated by racial discrimination,  Continuous Social Unrest Threatens Public Safety, Growing Polarization Between Rich and Poor Aggravates Social Inequality, and Trampling on International Rules Results in Humanitarian Disasters. The report reveals the human rights violations in the United States.

政府选择不作为导致疫情失控。在美国新冠肺炎死亡病例超过30万人后，加利福尼亚大学洛杉矶分校医学教授戴维·哈耶斯-鲍提斯塔指出，美国其实不应死那么多人，是政府选择了不作为导致悲剧的发生。（注2）哥伦比亚大学疾病研究人员通过模型分析显示，如果美国政府2020年3月13日发布的疫情防控措施能够提前两星期，那么约83%的死亡是可以避免的。（注3）英国医学期刊《柳叶刀》2020年5月17日罕有地发表社论指出，美国政府总是“着迷于”找到快速结束疫情的方式——疫苗、新药，甚至指望病毒会就这么消失了，但事实是只有依赖病毒检测、感染追踪及隔离等基本的公共卫生准则，才可能终结疫情。即便疫情已经在美国大范围蔓延，确诊病例和死亡病例已升至全球第一的情况下，特朗普政府出于政治私利，依然急于重启经济。沃克斯新闻网2020年8月11日评论称，一些州在4、5月份就忙于重启，使得病毒传播的重灾区从最初的纽约地区向南部、西部扩散，并最终扩散到全国其他地区。尽管许多医学研究已经证实佩戴口罩可以有效防止感染病毒，但时任美国政府领导人和一些州政府官员却长期拒绝实施强制口罩令。
