The National Health Commission announced February 7 that total infections in China spiked to 31,161 with new infections as of Friday reaching 3,143. Of that, 636 died with new death count at 73 and 4,800 were in dire condition.
[...]
the Chinese government told Wuhan authorities to gather all infected people in mass quarantine camps. As part of the measures, Chinese investigators will go to each home to check temperatures of each resident.
[...]
The mass quarantine camps, also called module hospitals, are for people who are exhibiting mild symptoms and those without prior respiratory diseases. The challenge for these quarantines is that it does not have proper medical facilities as opposed to patients staying at hospitals.

"This is what got’s me so freaked out. IF it’s a relatively harmless thing then why is the Chinese government reacting so strongly?"

When a real panic occurs in China, people riot in big ways. There were large numbers of riots during the process of forcefully moving hundreds of millions of people there to cities for manufacturing...I don't know, maybe during the '90s and 2000s? It was in the world news quite a bit back then.

There are some automotive plants in countries near China that are stopping due to lack of products from Chinese suppliers.

This is what I think too. It is not a very “quick” illness, it can be 3-4 weeks before a person is cured or succumbs

What makes you think its relatively harmless? Have you been reading the horrific accounts about how the infected have been dying? The patients who are barely symptomatic whose lungs have turned to swiss cheese? Those who get “cured” only to get sick again? I don’t know, I’m a natural worrier, but I think people are in serious denial about the situation.

Yah i was being sarcastic (sardonic?) anyways the media and government keep saying we have nothing to worry about....just wash your hands a lot. Yet the response of China is "if we don't contain this we're screwed".

Last I heard there was only one case in Wisconsin. Do you have a link for the report that says 6?
