China's response is nearly impossible for any other country to replicate. The lockdown is every word that true to its literal meaning during that period of time. People are not allowed to leave their own apartment. It is more like nati

This doesn't make sense right? As of today, California has 1000 cases. Even assume the infections double every 4 days, in 8 weeks that gives us: 16.4 millions. And currently Santa Clara county is in a virtual lockdown, I am wrapping my

Worth mentioning that, with China/Korea, now France deploys this drug to frontlines, in the best case scenario, which is the South Korea case, the death rate still sets at 1%, so still 10 times more lethal than flu. We all want a mirac

This is laughable. What trade sanctions would apply to a JS frontend framework? Insane.

Also noted, SK's infected populations are overwhelmingly skew towards young population during their 20s from the cult cluster. This won't be the case for other countries. 1% is way too optimistic at this point.

SARS doesn't even come close to the infectiousness of COVID-19. China only registered like 8k patients by the end of it, even you times that by 10, that still dwarfed by the COVID-19 on global scale, and it is only the beginning. The r

Probably yes, most likely for small companies. Prepare for the worst.

I don't think all nurses and doctors are using N95 quality masks. At least from the videos I saw, many of them don't, and simply wearing surgical facemasks. That is what we have to live with.

UK approach is suicide, their health care system is going to break down magnificently under the pressure of swarm of sick people, or they are going to ask people to stay at home and pray once sick. I don't see that works, people will r

Let us see how CDC will use this drug and do not make our own conclusions. If it helps it helps.

Diversification looks great, but is not easy. It is not like software where it can be easily replicated across continent. Manufacturing requires logistics, capability of water/electricity and skilled labour. Those are not easily scalab

Which I don't disagree. However, such virus already exists in the wild, though the chances are there, it can jump to human anytime in the future regardless of national boundaries.

I think globalization doesn't mean equally distribution. Globalization as how it operates, it means to assign the job to whichever country that is most cost-efficient for that part of the production.

There is a critical flaw in this thinking. Other countries will catch the virus at some point too. Without stringent measures, it will take more time for other countries to come back from it. In other words, China becomes safer after this.

> We never expected China to be able to manage domestic risk well Well, they have seemingly largely recovered and move their way back to normalcy, as other countries started catching fire. I think a lot of people's takeways will be

And how do you account for the fact the US have been known this virus for a month since the Chinese outbreak, and still does very little to prepare for basic things like testing?

I used to be a globalist myself, which I still am, but I think globalization needs its urgent refactoring. Not all industries need to be fully globalized, and it is better every country keep some share of production to itself to account for

but 900 people are OK? We need to really think about this...

But would political leaders actual take actions regardless of the pandemic categorization? I hope they do, but the reality starts to frighten me.

Unless you nuke the whole country, for country like US it is almost impossible. Yet virus can reach to everybody, and destroy people's sense of security

Trump's performance so far is a massive disappointment to say the least, and more of a parody even by Trump's standard. I am not sure what he is doing is even remotely serving himself that well either. Addressing the Coronavirus u

I am not European, but I hope EU can act jointly to handle this. Otherwise, EU's future is jeopardy.

Because it works. I think some experts are too fond of their theory, the beauty and sophistication of it, and forgets about the problem that it tries to solve. Lock-down does work, but only if you can execute it effectively. Apparently that

Nobody is overreacting drinking or driving causes death through the year, while covid19 is like a DDOS to the health system. Expect to be neglected if you get caught by a huge outbreak, thus the fear. Not to mention if the outbreak escalate
