Ir read somewhere that the rate of new cases in China is subsiding and the recovery rate is growing. Good news. No reason to expect different worldwide.

Don’t believe anything out of China. They’re fighting for this not to collapse their economy and power structure.

China’s numbers are no good.
But there is something good going on there!

If they don’t get a bunch of spread from opening their factories, we’ll have a much better outlook for this thing.

Were you aware that they changed the definition of a “case”? The first time they changed it they added several thousand cases...then they changed it back...losing thousands of cases. It is an example of why their numbers suck.

Better to look at Singapore, Korea and Italy. Singapore has been very open and they have a very good tracking system. Korea, Japan, and Italy have their own issues, but an open press.

I wouldn’t even listen much to the CDC. They’ve tested less than 500 cases and they haven’t sent accurate tests to most states. The CDC is not exactly demonstrating an abundance of expertise here. They will catch up. But keep an eye on the first world countries with a free press.

If it turns out to be nothing, what’s lost? Some beans and Mac n cheese. And they were on sale last week.

Let’s hope what you are reading coming out of China is accurate...

“Ir read somewhere that the rate of new cases in China is subsiding and the recovery rate is growing.”

I got thinking about that, the people of China are under very tight authoritarian control. People would get arrested for walking down the street with no mask. They would lock people into the buildings.

Could a country like the USA put the same authoritarian controls on Americans to control the outbreak? China also lock their entire country down within a week after they realize it was out of control.

We still do not know if the rates are going down. We still do not know the number of dead. They are sending people back to work to bring more money to save their economy.

Yes, believe what China says. Go ahead and vote for Bernie while you’re at it.

China’s economy is about to flop. They’ll say whatever they need to to prevent that from happening and they’ll also force their workers back to the factories even if they’re sick. If someone drops in the assembly line, drag them off to the incinerators and pull someone else in. The workers are expendable in communist countries which is the ultimate irony since it’s considered the “worker’s party”. That’s our future under some leftist dem.
