As expected, the Asian stocks continued today, Tuesday, with a strong selling wave, with the death rate due to HIV infection reaching 106 in China, the aggravation of the crisis, and the unclear confusion so far in the way the Chinese government deals with the crisis, unlike similar crises ago.
Health experts also made it clear that it might not be possible for China to contain the virus crisis, which has spread rapidly to more than a dozen countries including France and the United States.
