So who do you believe then?

I believe the idea behind not closing the border is that if the border is closed, some people will still find ways to sneak in and that's a lot harder to keep track of. With open borders, you could much better track who has been to China recently and quarantine as needed.

Now I am not saying I support or am against it, I am just stating the rationale behind the suggestion.

And who else's number would they publish? I know China's reported numbers are definitely not accurate, but at the same time this is probably the most credible source as far as WHO is concerned since it's still the official numbers reported by the legallt governing body.
