While I am no apologist for the PRC, they have some basis for calling out other countries for being slow to respond. The measures they took to try to contain, and if not try to slow down the spread (once past that head in the sand initial denial period) were nothing short of extraordinary.

Compared with the response the rest of the world, they are right that no other country or government would have been able to put in that vast amount of resources, that quickly. How effective it has been is another topic altogether but atleast they did "something"...

I'm not sure what containment measures Korea took, but I can say with confidence that Japan has done shit all twiddling their thumbs for the past 2 months.

On another topic altogether, anyone re-looking at their investment portfolio? This virus is going to hit the world supply chain real hard and Q1 and Q2 numbers are not going to be pretty.
