In this segment, Sean and Jacquie are joined by John Ross, a Senior Fellow of the Chongyang Institute at Renmin University of China, to talk about why Coronavirus outbreaks are appearing in South Korea, Italy, and Iran, even as the number cases within China is declining, how these new clusters of Coronavirus victims have led to a significant downturn in the global markets, why the biggest danger at this point may be disinformation, how the 'human rights industry' has exacerbated the situation by decrying effective quarantine measures as "authoritarian," and why he thinks mainstream media may be inviting a public backlash as their anti-China propaganda "is literally risking peoples' lives."
