China’s second corona wave can it crush it’s economy?

[Naida_BR]

It seems like China's economy was not crushed, I mean the corona virus only affected one City but their capital city where the business are done are still open despite the corona virus, now that they were able to contained the virus, their economy will be more better while other parts of the world are still battling the virus.

China treated this virus very well and this is why the virus affected only Wuhan.
If all other countries around the world would have taken this virus serious we would not have so much deaths and infections all over the world - with the biggest impact happening to the US.

if the cause are same , i think the overcome for it will be easier , and if "lockdown" really needed will be in short time / shorter than the first one . also i guess china have made the vaccine itself

everyone on this topic says their argument, the best way to keep this topic still update is just post the trusted news and update, in positive vibes. Dont post if you only have argument without data

Indeed, if they (most of us of course) did not underestimate it then for sure they are not the country leading to number of cases and deaths due to covid. I thought they can easily beat this because they are well known rich and powerful country but as we see the virus seems really strong. Now I realized that whether you are a powerhouse or just a small country, an unknown enemy is a big cahllenge for you.

Actually prior to this, I saw a video interview on FB. A man ask questions to a girl face to face then suddenly she say sorry for having a hoarse voice because she had the corona virus. Like wtf! Though  the video is a meme (it was edited), the content is still quite alarming. See? Being undisciplined at its finest tsk .

Ps. Sorry if I can't give the link, I guess FB shut it down.

Asian people are very creative and usually find incredible solutions for uncommon problems. China will meet no economical crush, not even after the second covid wave.

Looking at the numbers around the world, china has gone through this a lot earlier than anyone else and it is normal that they are done with it by now however we do not have any sort of vaccine or a cure for corona which means we will never really be done with is it? I mean think about it, how could we really get rid of totally if anyone could have corona and not realize they have it inside a 14 day isolation period.

I had to go outside and work for a while and now we have separated rooms with my wife for the past 14 days, tomorrow will be my last day so we can finally get together, if I am so scared and if my wife is scared of me, how could we really expect people to go back to regular world and look at each other safely? I would assume anyone I meet would have corona until there is a cure for it.

No, I do not think that a second wave of propagation with the virus will harm the Chinese economy, but unfortunately it is not possible to say the same thing for small economy countries or developing world countries if this occurs all over the world. Although the world is both economically shaken and the situation is bad, a new outbreak is likely to occur. Yes, it is possible to prevent this second wave by applying the quarantine rules correctly, but it should be reminded that in a second event, many companies and private enterprises do not have the power to remove this crisis. So, maybe the Chinese economy has the power to overcome this situation, but if it is to be interpreted in general and if this event is to be repeated once again in the world, then many small economy countries and developing countries cannot handle this shock. I hope that this virus will soon lose its effect.

as long as they carry out procedures as specified or carry out activities according to the orders of the president or the government, then I think they can deal with this case.imagine that China with the largest population in the world can cope with this and got rid of the wave 1 coronavirus.
precisely in America with the highest number of infected people and deaths, because it does not follow instructions or anything that makes the spread of the virus freer.

which country are you in? just take a breath for a second, your comment it really happen there in Jakarta. Many people still work out in this pandemic, despite the goverment ruling down all activity

That is the problem if the people are not coordinating because this will End that the said country will remain spreading of the virus.

they have made the escape from the first wave so how about what they can do in this second wave?of course this will bring at least some shaken but they already battle the wave and it seems now those are infected was cured and the news were gone.

i am asian, but im nt sure what kind of solution right now only lockdown and hope the vaccine as fast as it done

It must be remembered that the incubation period of the virus is 2 weeks or more.
Repeated waves will be stretched in time and will depend on the number of people who managed to make contact with the infected and spread the virus further.
The virus has a surprisingly large incubation period, which is alarming.

does anyone read newspaper about vietnam facing corona virus? i think the goverment ways to solve corona was very good. THey dont have any dead cases and now, vietnam announce that they opened the country and 100% corona free

Asian here as well. I don't think that Asia is faring any better when compared to the rest of the world. Anyway, I just want to warn you about this hype regarding the vaccine. As of now, we don't have a vaccine although several of the pharma giants are working on it. Even if they come up with a vaccine, the testing and approval phase can take anywhere from 6 to 18 months.

Just when we thought that China had banished corona from it’s land suddenly new cases began to pop up at record pace, and now the health experts believe that it could be a second potential wave of Coronavirus in China.

The second wave, and maybe even the third and fourth, we will definitely get later. This infection will return to us several times a year. In the meantime, the reality is that the last person who had a coronavirus was discharged in China Wuhan today.

At this stage China will once again be forced to go into lockdown, and do you’ll think that it’s economy will be able to recover quickly from this second lockdown too?.

If they were able to handle the first case, don’t you think they will also be able to handle the second case?
They might follow the same strategy they used in handling the first case. Though there are things I’m quite confused about.

First of all, when this coronavirus outbreak started in China they rejected help from other countries, and when it finally got to other countries, China started offering to help them lol. Doesn’t that seem to be kind of suspicious? And I heard news that the coronavirus got worst in Italy after China offered to help them. Not sure about this though but if it’s true, then it’s enough to suspect them for this virus that’s wrecking the world recently.

I have no idea from where you are getting these information, the last person who was corona positive is discharged means that there are no more patients in China, yet they are publishing how many patients they are identifying every day and yesterday there was 12 patients and today they identified 11 patients and going by that numbers there is no way it was the last patient .

This was to be expected, the virus is not going to disappear from any country until a vaccine is found, what we are going to see is the virus coming back from time to time but since now we know of its existence then people are going to be more careful and the next wave is not going to be as big as the first one, however not only this is going to have an effect on China but it will have an effect all over the world and this will severely affect the export sector of China which is the motor of their economy.

And most probably the number of cases will continue to increased in this second wave. South Korea as well experienced the second surge and here in our country, second wave of cases are popping. Even those who was positive and cure became positive as well, which obviously remains a mystery for now and we have so much to learn from this virus. In the meantime, even if the quarantine has been lifted in other countries, I will still be cautious at this point though. Really hard to fight an invisible enemy.

There is no assurance because there is no vaccine yet, I hope people will still understand that there's still a high risk, not because the quarantine is lifted, people will already assume that they are already safe, sometimes the lack of education will cause them into big trouble.

That can't be accurate China recorded 11 new cases today.
https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/  

This virus won't be totally eradicated without the vaccine, and vaccine could be developed for at least a year. So, we're going to expect this pandemic will not end without the vaccine.

@OP China's economy is strong and this second wave ain't no way touching their economy. The number of new cases in their country is far lesser than 30 people per day. That cannot destroy their economy for sure.

I wrote incorrectly in my message that all patients were discharged from the hospital. This only applied to the Chinese city of Wuhan, where the coronavirus pandemic began last year. I read the news on this topic here: "China says all coronavirus patients in Wuhan have now been discharged"

My problem with the "corona came from a Chinese lab"-theory is figuring out what China gained from it. People in my village are avoiding the Chinese restaurants, just because they heard on the news that the virus came from China. Obviously, this wouldn't be a real concern, but you get the gist.

One thing I could believe is that it was an accident after a contamination in the Wuhan lab where they might have been experimenting with variations of the SARS virus. This happened in the original SARS epidemic as well, scientists who were trying to find a cure got infected and spread it (albeit in very limited amounts).

Either way, China wouldn't gain anything from disabling the world economy. On the contrary, if the world economy is doing bad, an export country like China is going to be among the worst hit. I think that might be the big blow to the Chinese economy.
Everyone is buying the FFP2 masks that are being produced in China now, but every country in the world is reconsidering outsourcing to a faraway country, China being one of the biggest. The "Made in China" label will probably be less common in the next decade or so. They survived SARS and MERS, but I'm not sure if they will survive COVID.

I'm sure they'll recover, though, and their experience with the first wave will probably help them cope with the second wave better. I am sure that there will be a second wave once global air travel is allowed again, but I don't think China wouldn't be able to cope with that. And if they're not, no one will know about it....
