Japan Moving Manufacturing Out Of China – Will Domino Effect Occur Around the Globe?
A vaccine may never be made. But its not a prerequisite for things to become normal.One thing I am sure about is without proper vaccine available in every corner of the world, nothing is going back to 'normal'. And that could very well take years to come. What world politics plays out in meantime should surely keep us nervy.
Really? You know, in the real world, that is laughable. Today, the earlier you put your new product into the market, the more money you earn. You know where is the fastest place to turn your new design into new product (low and middle level)? CHINA!Any new product development by many countries will not have china supply chain.
[ -- Redacted -- ] PROFIT. We can avoid Chinese supply chain and manufacturing at all cost ONLY IF SOMEONE AGREES TO PAY FOR IT. But no one volunteered so far.Old products may
continue for a few years until they are phased out. So it may not be dramatic but there is a worldwide
effort to avoid chinese supply chain and manufacturing at all cost.
Many consumers? How many? The fact is: the absolute majority of consumers don't give damn where the products are made.Many consumers will also avoid anything
that has a MADE IN CHINA label.
Slightly OT

We need to understand how to manage the symptoms after a patient is infected. IIRC there's a 80% chance of death once the patient is on ventilator. I'm guessing by next year we'll figure out the right regimen to lessen the effect of the virus on organs and deaths should do down drastically. Right now everyone is in fire-fighting mode.
So things may get back to a "new normal" in a year
That is true but u also gotta consider that no other flu was this lethal, there are several viruses that have higher morality rate than Corona. The striking difference between those virus and COVID is that this one is more infectious and has managed to shut down several economies.We don't have vaccine for many common flu even today.
just gave you many links about manufacturing leaving China.Really? You know, in the real world, that is laughable.

The most important that people here forget is: China is not only a manufacturing base, she is also No.1 or No.2 market for almost every sector of product. No one can afford to leave this market to its competitors. If you want to be a player in this market, then you have to produce there because the cost. Once you start producing there, you will find it is a stupid idea that not export from there to the world.
So the economically weaker members of the EU want joint debt "coronabonds". The Germans obviously don't agree to this. This could be the trigger-point for countries like Italy to leave the European Union.
How far will Europe go? Central bankers and EU leaders push for 'corona bonds'
European countries are under growing pressure to take an unprecedented move and issue a new kind of debt to tackle the economic impact of the coronavirus.www.cnbc.com
This could unironically happen. Russia was on a PR overdrive before things exploded back home. #Quitaly was the sentiment at that time.@Dovah Maybe we'll see a new EU headed by Russia ? /jk
This is what is killing the Europe.. Social securityOTOH the social safety expenditures in European countries will make anyone dither from giving out that massive aid.
Chinese themselves are sending lots of low-end, high polluted industries out of China. What does that tell you? China is moving up the value chain.just gave you many links about manufacturing leaving China.
