This is the best analysis I have seen yet. Thanks for your comment. So then we should be even more concerned? If CCP quarantines so soon after learning of the virus, clearly they saw something ugly.

They had to act quickly because of the large movement of people associated with Chinese New Year. I don't see that they had any other option.

I don't think we should be concerned about the Chinese government taking this seriously. It is clearly a very serious situation, the fatality rate is lower than SARS but not hugely. It would be more concerning if they weren't taking it seriously.
