The SARS genome took five months to be discovered, MERS genome three months, COV 19 PRC took an unprecedented 5 WEEKS. What is that American talking about transparency? And then has the gall to yap about transparency and data

[andrewkroger]

Kevin Rudd..a legend in his own mind. Why doesn’t he just go away and leave us alone?

I will listen to this again in 12 months time, and see how much the conversation and all the prediction of China will come true.

To give money directly to consumers you need a robust all-encompassing distribution system and a relatively corrupt free government. 2009 China maybe not, but 2020 with AI and universal digital banking, and dead "tigers and flies", easily.

The virus had spread sporadically and exponentially to the rest of the region.The containment of
its citizen is to big and we had border crossing such as inner mangolia, the russian china borders
and the tibetian borders so its difficult to contol.The stimulus of economy were not carried out due to the inability of large stimulus tool box.

"Laughing at what China does is silly" is what you learn from this corona virus.

[daneiltomo]

The economy will collapsed and many company are pulling out from china due to covid 19 and toyota had moved out from china looking for investment on other country.American company will move out due to supply chain problem.State land will not work due to poor market and they will continued to print RMB and the will be implosion in the economy.
