There is something in between mild and severe guys. Meaning, according to the studies so far, 80% of people have symptoms so minor they're not associating it with this killer virus going around. And that makes them spread it.
Mild means you do not require medical intervention. You can be extremely ill but if you recover at home then your illness was mild.

You gotta look at what the most extreme measures are being taken in the world and know your country will be there within 10 days. I fully expect an army enforced lockdown in America. Maybe not Tuesday, but it will happen. And probably next week.
Several countries already have enacted martial law. Israel is doing door to door inspections for compliance. It is going to happen very soon.

That is some tone deaf nonsense
"It was the line "imagine no possessions" that triggered the most vitriol. People seeing this tweet who are currently out of work and understandably nervous about it barked that they don't have to imagine it. Others shot back with sentiments like: We don't need you singing to us. How about you spending a million or two to buy ventilators and masks and donate them them to hospitals? One person posted the pay that each actor gets per film."

Name one country that's under martial law on account of the outbreak.

I'm surprised people believe what China is saying, not to say their response is ineffective as far as things go on a relative global scale - but it's pretty clear they're lying out their asses right now

I wanted to believe them -- for their sake and the rest of the world's sake, but sadly from the start let's just say I was extremely skeptical.
And now the reports coming out of there of them faking the rapid recovery (a recovery which was pretty much miraculous given the speed of it and the size of their population) and keeping storefronts appearing as if they're open when they're really not.
I am not the least bit surprised.

There should be no country lying during a time like this. Lying won't do anybody any good. I think the Chinese do have the right idea about locking people down and strictly enforcing it.
Over 300,000 cases worldwide now. It's amazing how fast this is spreading and how little is being done about it.

No they shouldn't, but unfortunately there are some compelling reasons for them to to do so. It's like when Russia lied and tried to cover up and downplay Chernobyl. Speaking of Russia, does anyone believe them on their coronavirus cases? A country of 150 million and they have about the same number of cases border wide as the city of Dallas?
Yeah right.

Exactly. There's a reason China made it illegal for people to talk about the virus on social media and was forcefully locking people into their homes, or removing them to "quarantine" them. There was a reporter who was being tracked and literally chased down on his live streams by the government for reporting on the issues and they eventually found him and "quarantined" him even though he wasn't sick. This is a dictatorship in full effect doing damage control.
And our major media and social media outlets are obviously influenced by that sweet communist Chinese money, just like the NBA and Lebron during that whole scenario with the support for Hong Kong protesters before this pandemic.Also, for example Twitter was banning people, and recently put out a statment saying they will do it even more, about people talking about the Chinese virus BUT have no problem with the official China account saying the virus came from America. What a joke.

Like that popular Chinese billionaire who publicly eviscerated the Chinese government and then just "disappeared" and hasn't been seen since...

horrible country.
they lied to the WHO saying there was no human to human transmission and the WHO beleived them. they had people from wuhan travelling freely.
They need to face consequences for this. The west should stop engaging in trade with them and watch the communist regeime fall like the soviet union.
The communist chinese government is just as bad as the soviet union but gets a pass for some reason. it baffles me.

It was painfully obvious they were either flat out lying or greatly exaggerating their recovery.
They were getting heavy criticism and then virtually overnight a country of 1.4 billion has no new cases and are all back to work?

Well yeah no question. I was just using that as a comparison because the motivations were likely similar in the sense that in each case it was more important to save face (or try to) than to be brutally honest about the reality of what's going on.
