Thank you - I thought it was possible. My contacts in Fujian and Guangzhou are either missing, sick, or have passed. My friend in Guangxi says life is still far from normal. Ex GF in HK silent.

In laws are employed by state owned industries, so their jobs are ok. Those who were employed by private companies in Shanghai have very bad odds of keeping their jobs.

IOW, China lies it’s ass off. We knew that.

So for anyone that uses their numbers, or any official reports, good luck. As for the medical community in China posting their research on their site (prior to govt scrutiny) I believe whole heartedly. They want truth to get out, we’ve seen that.

There is someone I can check with. She emigrated here and was one of my wife's residents. We do need to call her and follow up on her wellbeing.

Won't know to probably this weekend. She was the one that gave us a private tour of China a few years back.

I have not been able to get a hold of my friend in Guangdong province for several months. It is weird, I get emails from her business address but it is addressed to My Friend and I can clearly tell it is not her emailing me. She also doesn’t respond via wechat but yet it appears to still be active as I see pictures of things having to do with her company. I have known her for many years and this is not normal.

ALL the statistics on this virus are going through Chinese Center for Disease Control. Including John Hopkins university which most of ours is from and WHO(CDC gets there info from WHO)
