No idea how true/accurate or whatever this is, but if there's really that amount of people actually quarantined in China, I think it's a really bigger issue than anyone knows.

Infections outside of China has doubled in successive days from 500 to 1000 new daily cases.
The rest of the world is now where China was (on their made up numbers) just more than a month ago.

Where are you getting 1000 from? I get roughly 600 with the majority of new cases still from China.

Pope Francis sick a day after supporting coronavirus sufferers

Pope Francis has come down with a “slight indisposition,” forcing him to cancel a planned Mass in Rome, just a day after he expressed his solidarity with coronavirus sufferers around the world — and as the disease continues to spread across Italy.

The illness has forced the 82-year-old pontiff to nix a penitential Mass, marking the start of Lent, that he’d planned to celebrate at the St. John Lateran basilica across town with Roman clergy, the Vatican said.

Francis will proceed with the rest of his planned work Thursday, but “preferred to stay near Santa Marta,” the Vatican hotel where he lives, officials said.

The Vatican has not specified the nature of the pope’s illness, but he was seen coughing and blowing his nose during Ash Wednesday Mass.

Interesting to see that India isn't that badly affected yet. Maybe the virus struggles in hot humid conditions.
