Out of curiousity: we all know the Chinese government is generally not very trustworthy, to say the least, so do people in China believe it is actually almost over (at least in China), or are they mostly still fearing there is way more to come?

 

Most Chinese believe in the government. Because we can see the measures taken to contain the spread and effort made both by medics and government. It happened on us, not just reported by media. Most measures are very strict but effective in this special moment, like lockdown, mandatory quarantine and definitely no any forms of gathering. The cover-up at the very beginning is stupid, the shortage of medical resource of Wuhan at the early phase is troublesome and worrying, but the strong actions taken next proved working well. The virus is contained and most patients are already recovered. People outside Hubei province are back to normal life now. We experienced a silent February and everything paused for one and half month. But people think the sacrifice is worth it. 

 

All in all, people do not fear now and things back to normal gradually. People think government did wrong at the beginning but measures taken to contain it is very effective. Considering no one knows the degree of severity and infectivity at the beginning, people think government did a good job in general. 

 

One more thing, the reason why overseas Chinese flee back to China is that they think people overseas underrated the severity. The ignorance would lead to great outbreak later.

Some good news for you

Apparently they do some test in Vo, one of the frist area of coronavirus outbreak in Europe. They test ALL the population (ok, they are only 3.5k) and apparently more than 50% are infected by they are asymptomatic

[heywoodu 16,004]

Here there's a press conference about the province where it exploded fastest in an hour or so. I highly doubt they'll close shops yet (we'll hit 1000+ today), maybe in one or two regions they will advise schools to close.

But that's not by definition good news, since asymptomatic people can still very much infect others.
