That makes sense. Sure it won't be that bad for young people, but it will overload the healthcare system if it gets out of hand for those that need to be hospitalized.

As for China, I don't know... Trying to show off to the West is one thing, but at the same time, if they are making the numbers sound good then that will make their own people think it's not a big deal and that's not good for them, either. Supposedly they also encourage cured people to donate blood for the antibodies to help current patients. Acts as a makeshift vaccine, essentially, before one becomes available.
