A glance of how China is approaching a return to normal after their virus pandemic has run its course

This is one report but no guarantee its factual !!! Will US companies get the chance to double dip ?

China starts to go back to work, as virus-related restrictions ...

The province at the center of China's virus outbreak began allowing factories and some other businesses to reopen Wednesday in a show of confidence that Beijing is gaining control over the disease that devastated its economy.

The officials promised "relief policies will be equally enjoyed by domestic and foreign enterprises," the statement said.

Hubei Province, which is where Wuhan is located, has almost 60 million residents, or a little under a fifth of the entire US population. Its encouraging that this thing seems to be running its course there despite China not having to completely lock down the country.

To hear some people tell it.....it’s all lies. There is a catastrophe still in progress that dear leader is lying about to the world, who have no way to verify if the country is actually recovering.

China never completely closed. My company has been handling limited imports and export from them this entire time. The irregular volume is like it has been Chinese New Year for the past 2 months. I figure we have another 2 to 4 weeks of this kind of activity before we start to see more normal levels of cargo volume.

Here's someone who has contacts on the ground... good interview. They aren't ready to get back to normal, but are suppressing the positives in various ways.

I'm in the trucking world, and have been seeing fewer loads originating at ports around the country. I extrapolate that to mean, among other things, that fewer things are coming in from China. Quite a lot of those loads are Chinese-made items.

Gordan Chang, a leading China expert, says they have reported 78 new cases !!! A noticeable uptick from two days ago !!! Says he believes China is about to experience a second wave of outbreak of the virus and they are trying to cover it up just like they did with the original wave !!!
That would put a significant dent in a return to normal !!!

From what I have read they have been saying that the uptick in new infections is now people returning/coming from Europe and America.

Yeah, that’s what happens when travelers bring back leftover lasagna from that NJ dinner party.
