In a case of miraculously good timing, Netflix just released a series called Pandemic, which ties into this type of stuff.  Stupid anti-vaccine movement :)

This coronavirus could actually render Trump's trade agreement with China impractical for the foreseeable future. The Chinese simply may not have the capacity to make the large purchases they promised in the trade agreement which I would agree helped in getting things back that Trump dumped in the toilet.

Remember when this COVID-19 was mainly in Wuhan and Mainland China? See the video again and think about the fact that now it's more dangerous in Italy, Spain, New York, New Orleans and the Seattle area then it is in Wuhan. The Chinese were able to flatten the curve and get things under control. Will the greatest country in the world be able to do the same?

Says who, besides their 1-party communist government where everyone toes the party line, and for which there are no checks and balances or independent oversight?

Let me share a little secret. Smiling faces, sometimes, they don't tell the truth.

That's your opinion.

47 new cases in China that come from outside China and zero in Wuhan.

I do not think that you can take any data given by the Chinese government as accurate. It is very likely to be self-serving. While I do not know whether bbts' post about new cases is true or not, I have friends from the Wuhan area (who have lots of family and friends that live there) and they have been very clear that the Chinese government has mishandled this and constantly miscommunicates so that they (the government) look good.

I remember thinking how mean spirited it was of you to recently repost several of Just Say'in's early coronavirus posts, slamming him for understating the gravity of the situation. As your post above praising China reveals, from time to time we all rush to judgement before we have all the facts.

It is so obvious that China has under-reported their cases and deaths over the last few months.  I wonder if the real figures will ever come out...
