I assume so - infrastructure is something this regime has been overbuilding for decades. The cleanliness of the tap water is an open question, but it’s not much of an issue re bacteria and virii, because the Chinese custom is to boil all drinking water, if my Chinese acquaintances are any guide.

I’ve been an amateur China watcher for decades, but I’m not actually Chinese and have only Berlitz-level conversational Chinese. Good enough for ordering food in Chinese restaurants while occasionally evoking gales of laughter from restaurant staff.

Re Wuhan - based on the Wiki, the place was a major piece of real estate when Londinium was a small Roman trading post. I have little doubt that a lot of taxpayer money has been spent on it.
