Also my friend tells me the name for the Hospital translates as "God of Fire Mountain".
Are they building it on the side of a Volcano?
I would just have to raise a slight concern about the quality of the building
I really admire them for their hard work (Bravo)
Looking at that Twitter link, the time laps movie looks like a massive Ants nest at work !
I am sure that they would have build the HS2 in half the time too .
I am also sure they will control this flu very quickly.
"After 16 hours of construction, the 1st building of Huoshenshan Hospital in #Wuhan has completed on Monday. The hospital is expected to be handed over to the military on Feb 2 upon completion and put into use for #coronavirus patients."
9 hours to build a train station...16 hours to build a hospital wing ..... they probably would have had HS2 up and running by now at half the cost.....

Can I just add, that Copper price doesn't only depend on demand, but also depend on availability .
Now, if you have people working in mining, smelting etc.. going sick with flu , or cant reach work because of limited movements and transport, then you have created a deficit in production .
I think this side of the Copper cycle is more important than the consuming part, because there are less people working in it
How many copper mines in China in comparison to how many Industrial production factories that use copper in their products ? 1 : 1000 ? maybe more
Just think about it !
There will be a big shortage of coper supply
That is all my opinion of course (delusional or whatever !)
Spinvet,
Having people in smaller groups mainly at home is clearly a better scenario than most others....any "panic" is more related to obtaining masks to further reduce any chances of infection....and related to the issue of understaffed hospitals...which is being addressed , including 2 new hospitals being built.
In 2003, 14,802 people died in France of heat related illnesses , and Europe wide over 70,000 died that year ....
The huge amount of effort being under taken in China will I suspect keep the death numbers to fewer than that 70,000 number
The people taking a very calm view of this outbreak are in my view delusional. From what is already known about the epidemiology, this is going to be developing over many months..
Having many millions of people in lockdown could very well have the opposite effect to what is intended. With increasing stress and panic, infections often spread more easily, at least that is my experience having spent more than 50 years in the veterinary profession
