It is being said that China’s strength has fallen with the outbreak of Coronavirus for which new hospitals are being built within a few days. Their advancements and technology are busy coping up with this disease as the country’s image has been descended and the death toll has crossed 600 people. Meanwhile, people suffering from this virus have crossed over 40,000. The cases of the respiratory tract novel Coronavirus have spread to 25 countries yet its antidote has not been made. The built economy of China has not been prowling but it still has a robust basis. It is a matter of thousands of years of her civilisation. When East India Company came to the subcontinent, China went to South Africa for trade but they did not colonise that region. Even they were in the position, Chinese civilisation was the most-known. Wei Qi game-like strategy is of China: they don’t show up with the cards, they have the instinct to fight back. They have met many haphazard challenges successfully and paved their way to development. Coronavirus is an epitome of experimentation and will be controlled soon as China has dealt with such crises previously. However, the current Coronavirus is 17 times more dangerous than the disease that appeared 18 years ago. Still, controlling it remains the priority of Chinese. The Huanan Seafood and Meat Wholesale Market in Wuhan is believed to the epicentre of the new outbreak Chinese are pragmatic as Mao Ze Dedong described China as the heaven on earth even when resources were very limited. Sun Tzu said to not be fixated with one space that’s why China has a wide scope and variety of tactics to use. The US owes a huge monetary debt to China. This is on top of the investment, which China did in the international market by making companies and investing in the US’s enterprises. If we supposedly believe that China’s economy collapses, they would tell the US to cash their treasury bonds, which is not possible for the US. They are 28 per cent of the bonds, which the US has in the category of indemnity bonds for other countries with an interest rate of 3.4 per cent. The Huanan Seafood and Meat Wholesale Market in Wuhan is believed to the epicentre of the new outbreak by Chinese health authorities. This hazardous outbreak constitutes a public health emergency of international concern. This should not be made fun of but the disaster needs to be curbed. Chinese President Xi Jinping has appealed to the Muslim community to pray that the obnoxious consequences of this virus come to end. Closing markets and shutting down everything is the precautionary measure for this rapidly increasing virus. They are very clear in the remedies and firmly sticking to them. The Chinese government invests more than 300 billion dollars in the private business sector. In return, they lend their business secrets. They are the biggest exporters of steel, aluminium, electronic parts, fashion accessories, seafood, wooden furniture and other goods. The economic crises upholding now won’t be staying longer than some months. There are many conspiracy theories in the market that it is somehow biotechnology warfare by the super country because Washington DC does not want to see Beijing replace her. It is also true that the trade deficit of the US increased up to 67 per cent due to China. Installing a virus to collapse the rival economies is not that simple as is being portrayed because these viruses cannot be limited to China and can overflow everywhere as the US has also taken out hundreds of her citizens from Chinese different cities for protecting them from those high circumstances. These viruses are believed to be Zoonosis, which are believed to be spread from animals. Thus, there are conspiracy theories that generally claim that pork imported from the US was injected with some viral infection. This theory has come to end after it is being taken into account the disaster started from seafood from Wuhan. Secondly, China is not so shallow that it remained uninformed of such a crisis coming. World Health Organisation Director-General, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, has shown confidence in the measures taken up by China for combating against this virus. This is a litmus test for Chinese scientists to exhibit their capabilities and fight this disease effectively; saving the world from a virus that appears as cold but can even take away lives.
