China has a population of 1.4 billion people.

The virus will infect 60% of them (840 million) is a vaccine is not developed first.

Wuhan had a population of 11 million, 1.3% of China. Did Wuhan even have 6 million infected?

The story of China is just beginning—that is the big secret they are trying to hide.

If they want to ramp up their business they can do it, but their health care system will quickly collapse, and then the death toll will boggle the mind.

China's healthcare system has already collapsed. They've stopped testing save to confirm CV in patients reporting to hospitals. Elderly victims are being abandoned save, in places where the central government's supervision is shaky, they and other ill elderly folk are being shot by local authorities for being ill, powerless and expendable. Something like the latter is the traditional Chinese government solution to epidemics. This is not a good time to be old in China.

One of my sources says that China's medical system is now providing only minor care to CV victims, other than the elderly who get none.

Some interesting stories will come out of China when this is over. It depends on whether Xi lives that long - his successor may try to blame everything on him.
