I’ll take it as a positive that they are saying anything at all… But yeah, they don’t want to cause panic yet are cutting off a major city to stop the spread…
Sorry China, it is out in the wild now and containment theatre and misinformation is not going to make it better.
I don’t know if it is a face thing (probably), but the Chinese, as represented by the CCCP, are hypersensitive to criticism. So, that a negative instance should occur in the first place is call to stamp out any possible criticism. They seem to do this as a priority rather than come to grips and swing in to action. You’d think after SARS they would have a plan. Do people realise that during SARS, when WHO officials visited Beijing to inspect the situation the government emptied wards giving the afflicted ambulance “taxi rides” around town solely to minimise the negative numbers?
Carry on. Nothing to worry about.
