I can't express how concerning this letter is to me. Some of the steps they're taking to prevent further spread of the disease are so unorthodox that I'm not sure what to make of them. On the one hand, it suggests that the Chinese government was not prepared to handle a pandemic (of any kind). On the other hand, it could mean that despite their best efforts and preparation, CoViD-19 is overwhelming their response. Any way you look at it, this is not good, and it seems increasingly likely that we're on the verge of a global pandemic with serious economic consequences.
