Because we know virus stop at frontiers....
China has quarantined 60 million people
And the more deaths, the tougher the measures.

Next year they will have gun mounts and be shooting people.
This whole thing is still a nothingburger compared to the flu. I almost think it's deliberately hyped to stoke fear in the markets

If you think about it, they could crush the pandemic by taking radical measures as soon as they found the virus: stop all in/out from China regions without 2 weeks quarantine, close schools and stop economic activities without full protection gears. This would have avoided contamination outside the region and saved lives. But the rub is a large hit to economic activities due to added frictions. Which is why they resisted radical measures initially.
This is starting to happen: https://finance.yahoo.com/news/coronavirus-infecting-global-economy-220135978.html
Economic activities are put on old, stores are closed, people stay home. This hurts the economy and will hurt profit.
only 132 confirmed cases worldwide outside of China.

That was an hour ago. Now it's up to 164.
U.S. Secretary of Commerce Wilbur Ross said last week that the virus could force companies to re-evaluate their supply chains, potentially returning some jobs to the United States.
26 million flu cases and 25000 deaths in the US alone - and it's not even a severe season. So wtf is this coronavirus hype all about.

If this spreads the same as the flu your 26 million would equal 5.2million deaths (if death rate is 2%) in the US not counting how overloaded hospitals would get. Also I think we would rapidly run out of all of the common drugs used to treat breathing issues from pneumonia. With the way China is ran I would think they are under reporting as much as they can.
