”Wuhan has stopped testing, that is why new case = 0 there.“ (opens in new tab)

Apparently this started today? From the twitter thread:

Hangzhou government sent out a note today to cancel all temperature checks plus no need for green code in Hangzhou anymore. This is for entering public places and hotels are included.

But China has stopped reporting new cases for a few days now at least, no? It does seem they're cutting the testing short awfully soon, though.

How credible is this source?

The Twitter post references an article from an Hong Kong site, which references the Japanese media (no specifics on which one), who then quotes a physician from Wuhan, yet doesn't bring up the physician's name or the hospital in which they work in.

And the US has barely started testing. That is why the number of cases in the US is not 200,000 yet.

This will be downvoted by HN overlords. Anyway, thanks for sharing.

The cat is out the bag. Most of the people in the world will be exposed to this virus and survive. China knows this. China also knows it's not possible to remain isolated from the virus and its effects. Even if that was possible, China's citizens would have to remain in virtual isolation until a vaccine was developed. Who knows when that will be or the knock on effects.
