Oh, this explains (some of) the missing numbers in China

https://www.npr.org/sections/goatsandsoda/2020/03/27/822407626/mystery-in-wuhan-recovered-coronavirus-patients-test-negative-then-positive

Under its newest COVID-19 prevention guidelines, China does not include in its overall daily count for total and for new cases those who retest positive after being released from medical care. China also does not include asymptomatic cases in case counts.

"I have no idea why the authorities choose not to count [asymptomatic] cases in the official case count. I am baffled," said one of the Wuhan doctors who had a second positive test after recovering.

And now China is closing its borders for foreigners to stop the virus from coming back in. It's nice no country actually closes their borders to stop the virus from going out....

It is human behaviour to do as told to do on the job and most people can not think outside that box,i would say that this could be a communication error of information dripping down from the higher ups to the ones that need to carry out that information in the form of tasks and those always get followed up by adjustments but that is very rarely instantaneously.

I had a problem crossing the border with the papers i had some days ago so i got what they asked me to get and now those first papers i had problems with are the ones that are accepted and that is just because of the slow spreading of information to policeofficers,when things happen so sudden it can take a bit to catch up to the situation.
