It's going to be more than 20 days.  I'm expecting a lockdown for a few months.  It's going to be really hard to stop a lock down after its show that works for stopping the spread and saves lives.
They'll have to ease off after the 20 days, not because the threat will be gone, but because people can't afford to just sit on their asses forever.
Especially those in the not insignificant (at least here) portion working in restaurants, clubs, bars and such.
Besides, people are gonna get tired of singing from their windows real quick, and start to break the quarantine anyway, so you can't just say "nvm, lol, do another 2 months!".

As i said i think they'll ease up on it, it won't go back to normal on April 3rd, but i don't think they'll just keep extending it indefinitely.

Also, isn't China (at least outside of Hubei) also easing up on things already?

I guess you have to strike a balance between not killing all your old folks, and not disintegrating your already shitty economy. :doge

According to German broadsheet Die Welt, Trump is looking to have an exclusive licence rolled out in the United States. Berlin is reportedly looking to make its own offers to biotech firm CureVac, based in Thuringia state, but with offices in Frankfurt and Boston. A source close to the German government said under Trump’s plans, a vaccine would be “only for the United States”.

When are we sending supreme leader Xi Jinping a bill for this bullshit?

The 'conspiracy theorists' called this months ago. China will not clamp down soon enough so the virus deliberately escapes and spreads worldwide.
Once they clamp down it will be fast and hard, a full lock down until they introduce a vaccine that fixes it while the rest of the world reels from this shit.

It's called 'boiling the frog'.

If you go from: "Everything's fine" to "COMPLETE LOCKDOWN" people panic.

So you start with:
- No kissing/hand shaking

Followed by:
- No large social gatherings

Followed by:
- No small social gatherings
- Work from home
- Limit social contacts

Followed by:
- Stay inside unless you need to go out to buy groceries
- Close borders
- Close schools

Followed by:
- STAY INDOORS SO WE CAN WELD YOUR DOOR SHUT AND COLLECT YOUR BODY IN 2 WEEKS

French number for today : +31 deaths (120 total), +900 cases (total 5400). New case numbers is okayish... Number of new deaths is alarming.

Experts will be consulted regarding post phoning the election Tuesday.

So basically the government put us on lockdown, lecturing citizens for their lack of discipline, but told us to go vote... For most probably nothing.

Other Asian countries they heavily trade with, other European countries they heavily trade with, South American countries they heavily trade with, or with North American countries they heavily trade with?

Maybe it accidentally got released early and this was plan B. Who knows.
We do know they silenced their whistle blowers, said everything was fine and they let the infection spread.

Not to mention their propaganda arms are in recent days touting how much they've already recovered:

Not to encourage nintex but It's pretty interesting that both fascists and some social democrats seem have this economic pipe dream in their heads and it merits a little investigation. Not from a serious perspective since Chinese labor powers social democratic economies but I might have a good joke post about this ideology later.

Looks like international solidarity was the wrong horse to bet on.

Don't know how dutch classrooms are structured but most U.S. classrooms unless they're in a large Multi-Purpose Room or Auditorium, seats are stacked each each other with at the most inches apart for space reasons.

1.5 meters space is impossible at a school I work at.

You bolded the wrong part.

I'm no epidemiologist, and I don't think most people who have strong opinions on the closure of schools are, but there is clearly a reason they think this is the case and I'm going to choose to believe that the experts have a good reason to believe this is the best course of action at the moment.
