> Supplies and doctors still came in after lock down. You mean the government get doctors from other cities to Wuhan because they are not needed, regardless if Wuhan is in medical shortage? This is a weird logic that I cannot agree. IMO, mobilizing doctors from hundreds of miles away, which costs a lot money and management effort, is exactly an attempt to solve the shortage issue. There are various video materials showing super crowded hospitals in Wuhan and other Hubei cities. It is also consistent with building not one, but two temporary hospitals with thousands of workers at much pricier cost.

Based on the activity data from TV news, fever related medical visit stays in single digit nationwide. If lock down are not announced and enforced, people in Hunan that are richer will flood to other cities such as Shanghai and Beijing for better medical services, as this happens from several news reports. People would choose to travel since their immediate action will not cause medical shortage elsewhere before they are handled. The idea of seeking medical help elsewhere will make matters worse is correct, but it is a macro level insight and will not change these people's mind to grasp these resources before they are gone.

It is not deniable that without a lockdown, people in Hubei province will on average get medical help in the short run and everybody else is much worse off. This is why it's not a sacrifice.
