China's model of proactive approach to control pandemic COVID-19.

Pandemic COVID-19 was initially named Novel Corona virus.

Corona Virus existed previously while the virus spread from Wuhan City of China was a new of its type; hence, the word Novel was added until the World Health Organization (WHO) named it COVID-19. At the time of its outbreak in China, the Chinese government requested WHO to declare International Medical Emergency but the request was turned down and acceded afterwards was perhaps little late.

Cogent reasons for outbreak of Corona Virus are still unfolded yet several rumors have been floated from day one to date influencing other's opinion. Interestingly, all the stories spin around two sources of the virus which are wild animals and laboratory.

Another story was that the virus travelled from bat to Pangolin and further to human. Rumors and Outbreak of COVID-19 came up with controversy between US and China. US Government initially instructed its people to evacuate Wuhan city, afterwards, took all stranded Americans to their country through special aircraft. China was discontented with that move considering it a cause of spreading panic in the country.

A war of words started and resulted in allegations to each other. US called COVID-19 as Chinese corona virus and Chinese officials responded by alleging US that previously, some cases of flu diagnosed in US were basically COVID-19 and their military spread it in Wuhan during their visit.

Rumors of being Laboratory made corona virus carry some stories like on social media, content was being circulating that US made and spread the virus in China to damage Chinese economy and then to boost US economy by coming up with vaccine for the world market to control the virus. Story number two was that Coronavirus was brought in the laboratory of Wuhan from Europe that came out of the laboratory and spread in the city.

Whatever the source of its origin is, does not have as much importance for a public at this juncture of worldwide overwhelming panic, disruption, scarcity of essential daily consumables and medical resources, losses to macro and micro economies, and losses of lives but the important is how to come out of this...
