Irony would be, if all these people stuck in the mountains to protect them from the virus would get the virus from the bats in their neighbourhood caves.

When I go to morning pee, I don't yet drool at the sight of two squirrels that play in a tree by the house.

Also the spring will be here soon, and with it come the snakes and many insects. I hope they can clear hospitals before mushroom season.

Seriously though, it's fourth week without shower. I've been thinking of building a makeshift sauna.

"next week when 160 million of the work force are set to return"

Without spreading rumours, we are to register our kid for a Kunming kindergarten in March, but hopefully can do it remotely.

Yeah did, and was told that Kunming is doing it wrong because in Baoshan they come up with bigger figure, and assume (rightfully I think) that Kunming should be more expensive.

100k for 10 years comes to 30 RMB per day. Doable perhaps, but...

In extreme poverty, people will even limit survival to that of their own person.

This has been reported, for example, from DPRK prison camps with family members turning on each other to survive.

In today's China you cannot make this comparison to DPRK, but China's history has left its marks in people's behavior today.

If I interpret Mike correctly, he is referring to general attitude of average Chinese person toward other human beings, nature, and generally everything other than himself and his immediate family.

For long time China was poor country, and it still reflects in many parts of the society. One is, that average Chinese will always put his own survival and benefit first.
