Weird statement for a state dept to make IMO:

“28 February 2020

Montpelier, VT – In light of the ongoing developments related to the current Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak, and its impact on financial markets, the Department of Financial Regulation (DFR) is reminding investors in Vermont to have patience and use caution.”
https://dfr.vermont.gov/press-release/dfr-reminds-investors-avoid-making-impulsive-decisions-volatile-financial-market

A scam warning isn’t strange, but “have patience”?

If this virus is a truly serious killer. Then why hasn't China been decimated because of it?

It's origin is from China. There's no know vaccine.

How did this skip mainland China?

If a quarantine saves just one child's life, it's worth it.

If building President Trump's wall saves just one child's life, it's worth it.

Build a man a fire, and he will stay warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he will stay warm for a lifetime.

Last I checked thousands dead from coronavirus so far in China. And even China admits their numbers are low. Yes. Their NAZI quaratine has paid off in lowering new cases. But at what death rate of current cases ?

I would be fine with quarantining the whole country.

It didn't. There are 300 to 400 new infected every day. The total would be much higher except that China blockaded all cities around Wuhan with armed guards, quarantined everyone in Wuhan including locking people in the apartments, shut down practically all businesses, built new hospitals to warehouse the sick infected, banned travel to and from Wuhan.

They literally bulldozed streets overnight and welded people into high rises. We all saw the videos until CCP stepped in.

Or we could threaten the virus:

You didn’t mention they cut their total industrial output by half in one month—and crashed the world’s stock markets.

Other than that, China didn’t do much... ;-)

China moved 40, that's this many: |||| |||| |||| |||| |||| |||| |||| |||| Industrial incinerators to Wuhan.

This is after blaming the sulfur dioxide plume on a local steel mill. Which, oddly enough, is running hammer and tongs while industry is shut down.

I wonder why China needs so much steel when their other factories are idle, hmmm?

And even at that it's only slowed it down. And since then it's becoming apparent from different reports that reinfection seems to happen to some people as well.

"How did this skip mainland China?"

Not sure if 12910 infected in mainland China count as a skip.

Hubei Province the epic center that was first to get the virus had 2682 deaths out of 65914 infected cases. The numbers could be higher, the rumor is China is lying about their data.

Does this death count of 4% (from china reported numbers) count as decimated?

Current flu death rate is less then .2% source

They shut down 11 cites before the Virus could get a foothold in the other parts of China. Much like President Trump did on travelers in Jan.
