If more cases are linked to that group, China will sadly further persecute and crack-down on religious groups: "In 2018 the Wuhan group’s 'holy temple' in Hankou district had been raided by police 'who branded us a cult,' but members continued to worship in small groups."

Only 3 of ~100 public health labs have@CDC test kits working and CDC is not sharing what went wrong with the kits.
