Seems the doubling time is getting smaller, and went from ~8 days to ~4 days. Should we make bets on when they'll start seeing > 100k cases/day? If this rate of growth continues, it could happen by the end of April.
These are under reported numbers. I suspect that Shanghai already has 1 million infections.

One week? What about one month? It's going to be really ugly.

"Two sources with knowledge of the matter told Reuters that flights arriving into Shanghai from abroad would have to have a load factor - an airline industry measure of seat occupancy - of just 40% from next Monday till the end of the month.
That compares with a previous load factor cap of 75%...."

My friends are booked UA 857 on April 15 and 20. Load factor is already 70%.
UA needs to dump someone if 40% is required. This sucks.

If they somehow try keep it going, they'll end up (the party..) on the short end of the stick.
The Emperor and his kingdom dig a big hole. They keep digging, because the face of the emperor is the only thing matters.
Let's see if they keep it going for 10 years because they can. They are stubborn.
