I can't comment on Wuhan because I rarely go there, but I will note that I've been a little surprised by how steadfastly my Chinese friends have toed the party line wrt the quarantine measures. I'm talking about people my age and younger, not just the older generations. By in large, they are not furious. Rather, they regard temporary suffering as necessary and worth while. That having been said, none of my friends have had problems procuring food or other basic necessities yet.

While I'm not a fan of many of the new policies, I must admit that keeping people from getting near each other and reminding them not to touch inert surfaces seems to be fairly effective.
