日本将把#新型冠状病毒# 肺炎指定为“政府指定传染病”，日本外相：“日本愿全力帮助中国抗击疫情”。日本“可以强制病人住院”，直到痊愈；厚生劳动省刚才对凤凰台驻日记者李淼说，根据日本《传染病法》，医疗费将由政府负担，对象包括日本人，“外国人医疗费也由日本政府负担，不论是什么签证”
Can't see how any mainland Chinese can be "Japophobic" after this. Japan is treating Chinese with the virus better than how Chinese in different cities have been treating themselves. Of course, this might be fake news?
So this is taken from an interview with China's "Feng Huang [phoenix] Tai", one of the many Chinese outlets.
Japan listed 2019-nCov as "government verified virus". Japan's foreign minister states that they are happy to assist China to the fullest in combating the disease. Japan reserves the rights to forcibly contain patients until they fully recover; this is according to the "ministry of health, labour and welfare". According to Japans "Infectious Disease Law" the medical bills will be paid by the state, targeting th Japanese, and such that "foreigner's medical bills should be covered by the Japanese Government, no matter the kind of visa".
Surprising. If I was them or even if I was to run a city in China, I would have barred the place so no one can get in, and any escapee will be either sent back or confined and monitored like a sick animal.
I do see people talking about China's capability to erect a fully featured hospitals within a week. Yes this would be the best response, contrast it to how Mao treated the peasants during the "Great" Larp
Backward Forward and other massive famines, totally because of natural disasters, having nothing to do with failed policies, land seizures, and the delusional ideology of communism.
Watch peasants eat trees while his cabinet of cronies execute his older allies.
My main problem would be how the hospital is going to be used after the virus is suppressed. During some of the other virus outbreaks in China, China was able to build massive facilities in just a week (people worked all day and all night, they deserve far more credit than the CCP) to house patients. The facilities were then swiftly abandoned after the virus has been combated, now which nature reclaims.

This is a facility that's 25000 square metres, now abandoned. It was built to combat SARS, another bat-related virus.
I guess it's easier to build stuff and not bother taking it down, but surely China doesn't have land at their disposal. China might seem like a big country, but similar to Australia, they have massive uninhabitable deserts. There's definitely better methods that doesn't involve abandoning the place after its duties fulfilled.
Using it as any ordinary hospital might be counterproductive as well, there was no shortage in hospitals until this virus came around. However, I firmly believe that one more hospital is better than one less hospital. I'd like to see whatever they built being properly used even after the virus.
I also don't see why their state will lie about numbers and stuff. If anything, this case can reinforce Chinese citizen's trust in the CCP, so the CCP should do their best in combating the virus and being as transparent as possible. It's not some little protest or inconvenient history shit, actual lives are on the line here. Censorship in such cases will backfire, now everyone's fucking home on their silly little social media accounts, all the deleted news and posts by Sino Weibo has been archived and shared in various chatgroups, image boards (yes... China does have image boards and it's as autistic as you can imagine), forums, the logistics involved in censorship in this current day makes the act itself look stupid. CCTV even allowed commenting on their videos where people want Hubei's Governor's head on a stick for being a lying sack of shit, this is a first in a long while. Usually comments are turned off. That said, Weibo being bashed for censoring stuff is glorious. While Weibo does abide by Chinese law and no one there should expect privacy whatsoever, they are ultimately still a company. Social media platforms being blasted for censorship is good for everyone.
武汉华南海鲜市场可能不是病毒发源地
武汉华南海鲜市场被认为是新冠状病毒的发源地，但发表在《柳叶刀》期刊上的一项研究挑战了这一说法。中国研究人员在论文中描述了第一批 41 个确诊病例，最早的病例是在 12 月 1 日报告的，感染者没有接触海鲜市场，总共有 13 个病例与海鲜市场无接触史。Georgetown 大学的传染病专家 Daniel Lucey 说，如果这些数据是正确的，那么最早的感染肯定发生在 11 月——如果不是更早的话。病毒可能源自其它地方，然后传播到海鲜市场后集中爆发。分析了 27 个 2019-nCoV 病毒基因组序列试图寻找其源头的演化生物学家 Kristian Anderson 称，病毒最近的共同祖先最早可能在 10 月 1 日出现。柳叶刀论文合作者 Bin Cao 承认华南海鲜市场可能不是病毒的唯一源头，但到目前为止他们不知道病毒源自何处。Media

This short article is somewhat sceptical about the origin of the virus. It's said that 41 patients were analysed, and the earliest reported case was on the first of December, the patient didn't go anywhere near that seafood market. 13 out of 41 patients have never been to the market. Daniel Lucey claims that if these figures are accurate, then the earliest cases definitely happened in November, if not even earlier than that. So the virus might have originated from elsewhere, infiltrated and contaminated the seafood market, and exploded there. Kristian Andersan has been trying to find the origin of the virus and claims the very first case likely spawned on the first of October. One of the contributors to the essay posted on "The Lancet", Bin Cao claims that Huanan Seafood Market isn't the only origin of the virus, but they don't know where else it could have came from.
This sounds plausible. Chinese munching on weird shit in celebration of their national day combined with the absolute spaydos that ran the government of Hubei, celebrating CNY while the entire province is becoming a cadaverous wasteland. The virus spawned elsewhere and migrated into some putrid shithole market that sell bats and rats, where it contaminated these easy hosts, that ultimately went into the mouths of unsavoury slants who were exercising their God's given right to consume anything that's fucking sentient, which further catapulted the virus into existence, affecting innocent people as well.
Basically the virus originated from place unknown, went into a shithole market where disgusting wild creatures are being feasted on, then exploded.

Gonna read it to see if the snippet above misrepresented anything.
They also talk about clean cooking in China, which IMO should bring up a 404 notice, we can hope though.

If China ever wants to become a "developed" nation such as their neighbours Japan and Korea, fixing these shithole markets and educating the gullible fucktards on health is a great start. Simply having tier 1 and tier 2 cities as developed doesn't make the entire country developed. I know Chinese who eat walnuts to up their IQ because walnuts look like a human brain, and TCM states that "one should eat what they lack 缺什麼補什麼". I guess that's why they need to up their IQ. Why not just pull a Reza Aslon and eat actual human brains, all cultures are beautiful right? Eating cow dicks to increase the size of that tiny Asian penis? Retarded, unironically gay.
I endorse all bat-related memes and the shaming of people who would eat these things.
