nobody is benefitting from this crisis except maybe the pharmaceutical industry

This is a proverbial timeout..

Something used to break down momentum one of those nations was making..

When the dust settles, we'll have to see who benefits more..

Who would benefit from China not being able to be a top manufacturer of products after this?
US benefits from China not being able to challenge them economic wise by using there ever growing wealth to influence nation's who the US was strong arming to fall in line.

They are lieing about:

Virus origin
Severity of cases (infected, dead, cured)
Current level of containment

I would arbitrarily multiply their numbers by 5 as a safe hypothesis

They have to present to the world that they are in control of it, and have measures to rectify.

Any vulnerability from a manufacturing operations and infrastructure perspective means less dependancy on them, thus, less of a need for them
China also needs to create the illusion that there is an end in site. Without that, the world is looking into the abyss. We don’t even know if there is a seasonal aspect to this. Dark days ahead.
