This is a mainly news-driving market.  I see there was a reason for the politicians to call for sanctioning China after the market had risen to this place.  I bet they either had sold or they were shorting the market.  It's all about money, believe or not....................

this is silly .... while it is true there was an initial coverup by China, they did eventually come out waving their arms and doing backflips stating :

 

"folks - we have a really bad virus that's brand new - we are going into total lockdown on Wuhan  -watch us build emergency hospitals as this is going to be really bad "  

 

and what did the USA do ? ................ we sat on ours hands 

 

How many times should I post how easy it is to avoid getting infected?

I have listed my activities and how I avoid getting infected.....WASH HANDS WITH SOAP BEFORE TOUCHING FACE!

If a 80 year old guy can do it, anybody can do it. But I understand not every one has the discipline I have.

China needs to pay for this, and they need to allow monitoring inside their country on an ongoing basis for 

the ability to try and prevent this from happening again, to monitor for unsafe conditions that may lead to 

further outbreaks and if one does break out, the world will be alerted immediately.

 

Even if you don't die from this disease, there can be ongoing health problems afterwards. It's not like the flu or any other common disease that you get over in 2-3 weeks and you are as good as new, no, this is totally different. You can expect months min. in a moderate case.

Is there any government that will submit to an investigation of an obnoxious government?

If we fight China for financial cost, they might hardly do anything.

However, we might be able to ask China for PPE and remuneration of reasonable financial damage. Nevertheless, one cannot reasonably expect any country to bankrupt themselves for such remuneration.
