Consider the source, personally I don't trust communist publicity news lol China Daily (Chinese: 中国日报; pinyin: Zhōngguó Rìbào) is an English-language daily newspaper owned by the Publicity Department of the Communist Party of China and published in the People's Republic of China.
If true it is only because they locked down the city and then went door to door and forcibly dragged out anyone they suspected was infected.
health professionals estimated that was the worst approach as ill people would be reluctant to seek treatment. Attracting bees w/honey instead of vinegar & all that. Enforced curfews/quarantines not withstanding.
But as you (or one of you) said before, the actual deaths are not that significant, what is so damaging is the psychology of fear. Once a "cure" is I/D, the fear is gone and everyone can go back to live a "normal" life and the economy should recover.
Then if you recognize that the fear is out of proportion to the reality, that should give you an edge.

%% That; + QQQ is till above 200 dma. See where QQQ closes Monday. I like an occasional daytrade. Maybe the reason QQQ is still above 200dma, China sent ducks to border battle, with locusts. And traders/investors remember CNBC nonsense bird flue pandemic prediction years ago.
