There could be a silver lining to all this. From what I am reading here:

SOCIAL MEDIA BACKLASH
One said: "It’s been a month since the first case was discovered and only now do they think of closing the city? This Wuhan emergency response is a little slow, right???"
Another added: "The government needs to address this. If things become too expensive, people will definitely panic and when people feel unsafe, terrible things happen. Right now people are fighting over supplies, soon they may just be fighting.”
Locals have shared images of their stockpiles of instant noodles and snacks on the social media platform Weibo.
One wrote: "No more going out… so I won’t get sick. Hope Wuhan can get some support soon."
It is unusual of citizens to express such outrage at the Chinese government on the country's microblogging site.

Assuming everyone doesn't die, of course. Then perhaps we may see the same sort of public backlash against the government that Iran is experiencing after lying to it's citizens about who shot down the passenger jet?
Morning, Fred. I only say Fred because that is his name in the cartoon.
If China is no better at controlling disease than they are at manufacturing product then we are all fucked.
Shut it down.
Crazy 8's.
