Well, for one they need to force everyone to hunker down and quarantine themselves in their homes, not let them run for the freakin airport.The cat's already out of the bag. How on earth do you quarantine a city of 11 million people (That is on the scale of locking down NYC which has 3 million people less)?
Hours later, authorities in neighbouring Huanggang announced public transport and train services would be suspended at midnight, while people were told to not leave the city of 7.5 million.
All of Huanggang's cinemas, internet cafes, and the central market will close.
A third city, 1.1 million-population Ezhou, announced the train station had been closed earlier in the day.
And highways were closed in neighbouring Xiantao, while public transport will be suspended from midnight in nearby Chibi. The two cities have a combined population of around two million people.
As efforts to contain the virus spread, Beijing cancelled massive gatherings that usually attract throngs at temples during the New Year holiday, while the historic Forbidden City will close from Saturday.
I'm afraid there's a massive coverup going on by the Chinese government of how bad this really is.China locks down cities to curb virus outbreak
So China has put close to 21 million people in quarantine. This has to be worse than what they are officially saying. I also saw this morning that the Chinese opened a level 4 biolab in Wuhan back in 2018, this is sounding like horror movie script.

We have someone from China here. And talking with her about stuff happening in China is scary.They would try to suppress information, and probably did, now that the cats out of the bag no point. The people are illiterate about this type of infection, spoke with a relative in Wuhan this morning and she was unconcerned because she had a flu shot and was wearing a mask. They need to educate the masses on how this virus is transmitted and fast.
