Thanks Bill for an excellent update and great insights in today’s edition. As a Beijing based resident now into his and his family’s 3rd week of self-quarantine Sinocism and SupChina are keeping me going!
Anyone seen any good theory on the differing death rates in Hubei vs China ex Hubei and world ex China (the latter two of which r similar enough given the differences in sample size)? Something very strange is going on with Hubei. Unless somehow the virus is much less lethal and under-detection of infection is huge in Hubei.
Arguably there s probably huge under- detection of the infected outside China atm also. So a highly infecticious non-leathal virus that can always mutate into something bad? But then that s true for most viruses. What is a boy to do indeed. i wish Xi good luck. I bet his Chinese enemies, mostly much uglier and more unscrupulous characters than him, for once do not want to be in his shoes.
