Guangzhou, the capital of China's southwestern Guangdong Province and the country's fifth largest city with nearly 15 million residents, has just joined the ranks of cities imposing a mandatory lockdown on all citizens, effectively trapping residents inside their homes, with only limited permission to venture into the outside world to buy essential supplies.
The decision means 3 provinces, 60 cities and 400 million people are now facing China's most-strict level of lockdown as Beijing struggles to contain the coronavirus outbreak as the virus has already spread to more than 2 dozen countries.
That's more than 400 million people forcibly locked inside their homes for 638 deaths? Just think about that: If there was ever a reason to believe that Beijing is lying about the numbers, this is it.
So far around 400 million people locked down in #China to contain #coronavirus.
Elsewhere, Singapore raised its national disease response level to Orange, the second-highest level and the same level from the SARS epidemic, according to the city-state's health ministry.
'Orange' means the outbreak "Is severe and spreads easily from person to person" but "Has not spread widely in Singapore and is being contained," according to the Disease Outbreak Response System Condition color-coded framework.
The way China is reporting almost an identical number of new coronavirus cases each day MUST be a reflection of its diagnosis capacity rather than the true caseload, which is likely much worse.
