Certain parts in the north of Italy are also under lock down and quarantine, right? Which is where a lot of ITA figure skating is practiced.
10%???
As of today:
Hubei: 65597 cases out of 58.5 million people = 0.11%
China: 78497 cases out of 1386 million people = 0.005%
South Korea: 1766 cases out of 51.5 million people = 0.003%
Italy: 453 cases out of 60.5 million people = 0.00075%
Japan: 189 cases out of 126.8 million people = 0.00015%
And in China the number of new cases per day is now decreasing.
I have no idea who runs this corona-nonsense in the media and politics and what interest they have in it. For me it's a proof that paranoia is taking over. I hope we are not witnessing the collapse of the modern world. And its us who causes it.

Nobody said 10% is infected now, but could be.
I would not be surprised if WC would get cancelled.
No.It would be better if you came back with numbers in 6-12 months, because this is just the start. Nobody said 10% is infected now, but could be.
No, it's not concerning. It's normal.The number in Italy and how fast it has spread is concerning.
It would be strange watching our favourite skaters compete without anyone to cheer them on, though.

No.
"in China the number of new cases per day is now decreasing" means that the spreading has passed its peak, in other words, its halfway. So the final numbers can be at max twice and not 100 (or even 1000) times.
Imagine how cool that would be: the entire drama with Evgenia, Alina and Liza missing, the quad kids taking over, only three places for the Russians - this entire drama would be immediately solved.
That's not surprising since China is pretty much on lockdown at the moment, and has been for a few weeks. In most other places around the world it's business as usual, so things could get worse before they get better outside of China.
After confirming last week that the Chinese team will skip the competition, Diving Canada said Thursday that other countries, including Japan, South Korea, Italy and France, will also be absent. (According to Diving Canada, the absence of China this weekend is due to visa problems, not to coronavirus.)
