Overnight, it can order a stop to an entire city...below things were done in a large scale...

• All factory shuts down
• All citizens stay home.
• Police nailed boards to residential buildings entrances/exits to lock people in.
• Restricting info outflow. Anybody attempting to report and record the truth disappears. Any recording evidences get erased (except for some IT savvy enough to bypass blockage to post videos to dark webs or western websites)

Don’t even get me started in the mortality rate....the funeral home workers in those heavily hit area are working OT on top of OT cremating dead bodies. There are dead bodies without cause of death being identified simply because there wasn’t enough coroners or time (there’s a newly imposed time limit of like 1.5 hrs from death @ hospital to picked up by funeral home worker).

So with all that said....with the extreme measures and cover up, this thing still blew up in China, so bad that citizens are getting outraged.

I have two little ones, I hope to god things get contained in US. But there’s no cure to virus (unlike bacterial infection). The only way to contain this is to be mindful, considerate and diligent. Under estimating this virus won’t do anybody any good.
