A few days ago, FEDEX pointed out that China\u2019s demand has rebounded strongly and that 90% to 95% of large Chinese manufacturers and 65%-70% of small business are operating again. These reassuring figures give hope that a similar rebound may occur in the rest of the world, especially in Europe which is the new coronavirus epicenter.\u00a0 Unfortunately, at this stage, everything suggests that the conditions have not yet been met for an economic rebound to occur so quickly in Europe. There are two notable differences between the health and economic responses of China and Europe to the coronavirus outbreak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/zh-prod-1cc738ca-7d3b-4a72-b792-20bd8d8fa069.storage.googleapis.com\/s3fs-public\/inline-images\/china%20vs%20worldwide.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>In Europe, the health response is still too slow and too lax in some countries.<\/strong>&nbsp;Though there are numerous factors at play that we don\u2019t fully understand, it seems we can learn some valuable lesson from the Province of Venice in order to fight efficiently the spread of the virus. Probably influenced by Chinese standards, Venice implemented a health response at a very early stage (February), adopted a large scale testing approach (especially targeting the most exposed people: hospital staff, cashiers, policemen etc.) and enforced restrictive home quarantine (for suspected cases and asymptomatic cases). This is still far from being the case in many European countries while it is scientifically proven that these measures are the most effective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2026click on the above link to read the rest of the article\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chart Of The Week: New COVID-19 Cases Per Day You have probably seen this chart, or something similar, everywhere.
