Massive protests in China. Could this be about the virus?



Wow.  Didn't put it on the blog but Xi went to Wuhan and WAS NOT warmly received.  Now this?  Could this be about the virus?  If it wasn't then WOW!

On second thought it could be worse than anger over the virus.  Could this be over the economic situation the Chinese citizens suddenly find themselves in? They don't have the robust social safety net that Westerners enjoy so any downturn in the economy would be immediately felt.

And remember even before we felt the impact they were forced to stay home too.  Now they return to work and suddenly no one is buying their stuff...so they get sent home again (I'm speculating on all this).

Anyway this bears watching!!!
