If China's numbers are accurate, I'll eat my keyboard.
The Communist Chinese don't have a stellar record for being honest, in particular, when it comes to things that will make them look bad.
Anyway, if I ASSUME the Chinese numbers are accurate, then, as I've stated before, we in Western Nations BETTER get a hold of whatever it is they have, because they've fundamentally, abruptly, stopped this virus in it's tracks.
Unless what we are seeing is that the virus peaks, then fades away to near nothing, as part of it's natural cycle.
Here's a little glimpse of data I've compiled, data comes from the Johns Hopkins website.

First column is the date, then the next column is total infected reported in China, the last column is total dead. If true, then in the entire world we will likely NEVER see a high death rate from this virus. If these numbers are accurate, then either China has a miracle cure, or the things they've put in place ARE the miracle cure, or the virus plateaus and becomes hugely less deadly. This is the epicenter we're talking about here, heavily populated areas in cities as dense as, if not more than, anywhere in the world. And they only have 3,291 deaths? Being literally weeks, if not months ahead of the rest of the world in terms of the progression of this thing? C'mon.
