The Communist Party has now quarantined, in their own style of detention, 760 million people. The party is strongly enforcing the previous Cultural Revolution-era social control method of relying on every citizen to spy, betray and inform on their neighbors, and report anybody not in compliance with government guidelines.
According to New York Times: “China has flooded cities and villages with battalions of neighborhood busybodies, uniformed volunteers and Communist Party representatives to carry out one of the biggest social control campaigns in history.
The goal: to keep hundreds of millions of people away from everyone but their closest kin.
The nation is battling the coronavirus outbreak with a grass-roots mobilization reminiscent of Mao-style mass crusades not seen in China in decades, essentially entrusting front line epidemic prevention to a supercharged version of a neighborhood watch.“

To date no infections on the continent of Africa have been reported. Why?

Only today, February 7, did anyone on the continent actually get a testing kits to look for infected people.
What will this number be in two weeks? https://t.co/4yoWJmNRlc
Many African countries are now in the orbit of China’s influence due to its road-and-belt aggressive drive. Chinese citizens are travelling back and forth (China to Africa and VV) as component of the projects and business in their ownership or management..
