As the epidemic escalates, global coordination and cooperation become more important. On the one hand, the role of the World Health Organization (WHO) and the UN agencies needs to be given full play. On the other hand, countries must step up the alignment of economic policies. Protectionism is not a good way to revitalize the economy, nor is it good for fighting the epidemic.
The world has become complacent to the emergence of new viruses, relying on advancement in science and medicine, and wrongly believing that there will be a cure for every illness.
There are always heroes and cowards. This is a time when courage and timidity, misery and glory, and anxiety and hope coexist. As US reporter William Manchester carefully reported in his book The Glory and the Dream: A Narrative History of America, 1932-1972, China also has its own compelling stories in the domains of politics, economy, culture and social life over the past four decades. Unfortunately, neither Chinese nor Western media outlets have accurately recorded this era of complexity and diversity.

The COVID-19 outbreak in China has begun to decline outside Hubei Province, meanwhile in some countries it is on the rise. This fully shows that the epidemic is a challenge faced by all humanity and needs to be addressed by all countries. China's experience in combating the outbreak shows that timely, accurate and authoritative information disclosure is crucial. However, "negative energy" arguments in the public opinion field, which undermines the solidarity and cooperation between human beings and even creates panic out of nothing, will harm the efforts to fight the epidemic and can be called a "tumor" in the public opinion field during the epidemic.

The Chinese government is taking forceful prevention and control measures in response to the recent outbreak of the novel coronavirus, known as Covid-19. The contagion has exerted some downward pressure on China’s economy, but it will not last long. Supported by a resilient economy and ample room for policy adjustments, the People’s Bank of China expects a quick recovery after the outbreak is contained.
Combating novel coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19) could trigger an earth-shaking change in the world's healthcare industry supply chain. China is set to expand its supply chain in the healthcare industry. China can be the base camp for this radical reform. The country will become both the producer and market of medical products. Financial services, research institutes and biotechnology development related to virus containment have tremendous market value - China can't pass up this opportunity for a strategic shift.
While people in China and around the world are actively cooperating to combat the novel coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19) outbreak, some US politicians and media are making accusations against China, questioning the effectiveness of its response to the epidemic. However, the US sees frequent outbursts of influenza, and its government not only reacts with extremely low efficiency but also remains silent. The contrast has revealed a US double standard.
The sudden outbreak of the novel coronavirus, COVID-19, caught China totally unprepared just before the Chinese Lunar New Year holiday. China's economy suffered a lot in the epidemi. Interruptions in Chinese supply chains is spreading to other countries, which will influence the global economy. If China has the right policies and pathways, and if it works successfully with the international community, there is a high chance that its economic growth will stay within its trend line over the medium term.
The novel coronavirus outbreak will impact China's trade in the first quarter of this year. In the short run, the epidemic's impact on China's exports will be larger than that on imports. To cope with the adverse impact of the epidemic on China's economy, the country has launched macroeconomic and fiscal measures to support China's imports and exports. And the global supply chain will rapidly recover in the second quarter as the epidemic is effectively brought under control.
The Chinese people see China's entry into the WTO is proof that their country was stepping out into the world, and that the world was turning increasingly toward China. But events took a surprising turn when the SARS epidemic broke out in China in November 2002. By early 2003, the SARS virus had spread to 17 countries. The outcome of the coronavirus outbreak is likely to be the same as that of the SARS epidemic. However, The difference is not with the coronavirus so much as it is with the reality of China's return to the global stage and its influence as an engine of the global economy.
