Depending on how bad it all goes, the Wuhan Flu itself may be the least fatal of the problems it will bring.
The chinese are mad at their government. For all the shit the CCP pulls they were giving the average Chang on the street a decent life compared to their parents and grandparents. But now they are throwing it away via incompetence, pride and refusal to take responsability. The people are getting mad, seeing quarentine after forced hospitalization after blunder. If it gets bad the government may lose control.
If they fuck it up hard the PLA may be forced to engage in the ancient Chinese tradition of declaring the Mandate of Heaven lost and break China into warlordism again.
Now, I assume most of you understand how bad that would be for China itself. The Ughyurs and Tibet would 100% use that as a chance to GTFO. And then you would see a stand off between provincial governors not unlike in 1912 when the Qing fell. Except this tine you got NUCLEAR armed warlords as the PLA stockspiles are taken by it's respective provinces!
And unlike the last few times China broke, this would not just affect the neighbouring Asian sphere. Most of the world's multinational rely on Chinese factories and their employees slave-like wages to keep themselves on top. It would send a shockwave to make the 1929 crash look like a mild crack. Europe, the USA and a good deal of the world will be thrown into chaos.
It has just began.
