"China was different [then], the world was different," said Georgieva, in an interview with Ivanka Trump from a State Department event on economic empowerment for women. During the SARS outbreak, China was only 8% of the global economy, Georgieva pointed out. "Today, China manufactures 28%, with possible impact through value chains on other countries." — Belvedere <br /><br /> From CNBC's daily summary <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2020/02/13/coronavirus-latest-updates-china-hubei.html" title="https://www.cnbc.com/2020/02/13/coronavirus-latest-updates-china-hubei.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer" class="attachment">https://www.cnbc.com/2020/02/13/coronavirus-latest-updates-china-hubei.html</a> [cnbc] <br /><br /> #<span class="tag"><a href="https://nu.federati.net/tag/covid19" rel="tag">COVID-19</a></span> #<span class="tag"><a href="https://nu.federati.net/tag/2019ncov" rel="tag">2019-nCoV</a></span> #<span class="tag"><a href="https://nu.federati.net/tag/coronavirus" rel="tag">coronavirus</a></span> #<span class="tag"><a href="https://nu.federati.net/tag/sarscov2" rel="tag">SARS-CoV-2</a></span> #<span class="tag"><a href="https://nu.federati.net/tag/economy" rel="tag">economy</a></span>3268849http://activitystrea.ms/schema/1.0/post2020-02-13T20:29:29+00:002020-02-13T20:29:29+00:00http://activitystrea.ms/schema/1.0/personhttps://nu.federati.net/user/2lnxw48a1Main account.
