Although I do not trust Chinese statistics; it is mostly true that the repressive government did effectively lock down the country and disinterested Western observers have basically confirmed the statistics.

But, to conclude that this supports the idea of only a few month natural cycle of the virus and is unrelated to Chinese tactics is wishful thinking.

Sorry but the Chinese just plain lie in my opinion, yours may vary...

Taiwan had an incredibly fast and reactive response to this and to date are relatively unscathed. I have an employee that works remote in Taiwan as well as an outside agent we work with. They are going about their life normally.

Contacts of mine in China were shut down and working remote for 2 months, but all restrictions are being lifted.

My company, normally in electronics/ITAD, has been shifting focus a bit and is working on importing medical supplies such as masks to help out with the shortage. We are in the process of getting our supply approved with multiple health care facilities here in the northeast that are desperately in need. The shortage of protective devices is real.
