How long do we have before things potentially erupt here?

Stress. Loss. Fear. Deaths. Insecurity. Shortages of medical care and other things. ETC.

Imagine walking down you street and there is no one, but the state only shows 1 death and 15 cases in your town.

Report warns of protests erupting in Wuhan when lockdown ends
By Yuichiro Okuma, KYODO NEWS - Mar 25, 2020 - 23:18

Large-scale protests could break out in Wuhan, the epicenter of China's coronavirus epidemic, when a lockdown on the city ends next month, as residents unhappy with unprecedented restrictions on their movements vent their pent-up frustrations, a Beijing-based think tank warned Wednesday.

The private research institute, which is close to the Communist Party and central government, sounded the alarm in a report recently submitted to the leadership.

The report was compiled ahead of the announcement by the nation's health authorities this week that Wuhan's months-long lockdown would be lifted on April 8 as the number of new infection cases there has dwindled in recent days.
