Re: Coronavirus scare causing markets to fall

China is getting back to business. People are back on the streets. The reason they (and other Asian countries like S.Korea, Singapore, Vietnam for eg) have been able to beat this virus in a quick(ish) manner is due to the extreme measures they have taken and implemented.
If anyone has seen the videos on social media, it was military like armies of cleaning staff, sanitizing, disinfecting, etc. The procedures and methods they used would not be acceptable in a western country like Australia. It would not go down well with the litigation society that we are.
For that very reason, we need to be much more proactive in containing and eliminating this ****. Because we cannot do what China, S. Korea are doing to get rid of this virus. We have to be more careful - and what would seem like extreme measure to most, have to be taken. Australia needs to go into full lockdown mode asap. If not, just watch the number increase sharply over the next few weeks. Italy for example, went from 200 cases to over 17'500 cases in just 20 days.
