Also, add Hangzhou, Taizhou, and Ningbo to the list of cities in Zhejiang province under lockdown, on top of Wenzhou earlier in the week. What makes this worrying is that the next city along this path is Shanghai. https://shanghai.ist/2020/02/05/zhejiang-expands-lockdown-to-hangzhou-and-taizhou/ quote:Following the lockdown of Wenzhou on China’s east coast, Zhejiang province has now placed severe restrictions on the movement of people in Hangzhou, Taizhou and parts of Ningbo.

The problem isn't generally hospitals but the local government clowns who generate and enforce rules almost at random, leading to stuff like that paralysed kid starving to death because his parents were quarantined.

Regular readers of the China threads have probably already figured this out, but in China government officials below the level of...let's say large-ish cities, are almost universally without exception incompetent clowns, power-tripping assholes, or both. These are also the people on the front line of pandemic control in most of the country.

Hearing reports from friends in Hong Kong who have relatives nearer Wuhan that if you’re caught outside without a pass from the local health officials authorising you to be outside then the police are authorised to execute you to prevent the spread of disease. Very scary stuff.

LifeSunDeath posted:serious question, what is the hand hygiene situation like in china? It's a big country but in my experiences around it, there's not a lot of soap. Even city run stuff like the train stations, never any soap at all and the squatters get annihilated but people keep using them. Right before this all broke out I was in a terrible bathroom at Zhengzhou East Railway Station, packed with people because of the holiday, and no soap, no running water. By this time the virus was at least known so you'd think they'd be like "alright well we gotta at least get soap out there" but it didn't happen I guess. It's a big station too, big bathroom, dozens of people going in and out at all times, each with nasty poo poo hands, going around touching whatever they feel like. Edit: That's not even rare, that's how it always is. The only reason I remember this specifically was because I remember thinking "drat if this plague ends up spreading right here is where it's gonna do it." It ruined my appetite so I was kind pissed about that awful bathroom.

Anecdotally: In government buildings (e.g.: train stations) in the last couple of years, soap is available a little over half the time. In fancy malls, maybe three quarters of the time. Everywhere else, good loving luck. The virus situation significantly increased these rates for the few days in which it was a thing and I was still going to public places, but obviously no further information on that now.

To add to that, in my experience even trying to use the hand washing facilities that inevitably lack at least one of [running water, soap, paper towels/dryer] will put you in a distinct minority of public bathroom patrons in China to begin with.

I guess regions of China really are their own places. Different experience here in the Shanghai-Suzhou-Hangzhou sprawl. Still crappy, but not comedically so.

LifeSunDeath posted:serious question, what is the hand hygiene situation like in china? Nobody washes their hands (when I would on rare occasions see someone wash their hands it was shocking), there is almost never soap or hot water available in any public place. Newly built mall bathrooms are the big exception, they're usually about the same as the west. Still nobody washing, but you could. China's worse but this isn't actually that weird for East Asia, even in relatively clean Japan it's a coin toss if there's going to be soap in a bathroom. Same in Korea. I eventually just started keeping a small bottle in my backpack, and you always want to have some wipes with you in Asia.
