#China to ramp up purchases under Wed #trade deal by $200bln over 2 years using 2017 as base. Big question in US biz community how China reaches goal. ~$80bln for manufacturing means cars, aircraft. Would #China buy in econ slowdown, stalled market? One calls it “pure fantasy”.
Another flaw in the purchasing goals: so many issues for #China market left unaddressed. US biz says big purchases of farm goods, energy possible because of need. But for manufactured goods, services, they say need better access, reforms in Chinese market. 🤔
Finally, if purchase targets set so high, it is almost inevitable they will be a source of conflict in the future— which doesn’t help ease uncertainty. 😬 #China #trade

⚠️#SITREP: JANUARY 28, 2020 9PM #Coronavirus #2019nCoV update

For this update I am referring to the WHO / CDC / BNO data.

Cases: 6,062 Confirmed /
6,973 suspected
Deaths: 106

The numbers published by WHO have significant lag-time. Using @BNONews for real-time
The number of nations affected remains officially at 15. There are numerous suspected cases all over the globe and as such we just don’t have a very accurate grasp of how extensive or not #coronavirus outbreak is right now.
Recommendations and focus of public health officials remains unchanged from yesterday’s #SITREP. Universal Precautions remains the policy and no upgrade to droplet precautions outside of immediate contamination zones are being recommended.

Is #China lying? Experts question why authorities suddenly kicked into action weeks after first coronavirus case was reported

Claims that the regime has used its superpower status to stop WHO declaring an international emergency

dailymail.co.uk/health/article…
More than 1,300 people have been infected globally with virus traced to China

Despite this, the WHO has failed to declare a global health crisis on Thursday

Experts have warned prominent Chinese figures pressed the WHO over crisis
Sophie Richardson, China director at Human Rights Watch (HRW) is concerned about China's transparency in light of the quarantine of victims & China's wider response.

'From a medical & human rights perspective, it's essential that people can trust the information available.
