Just got a notice from my parts supplier in Shenzhen.
All businesses in Shenzhen, China's manufacturing hub, are closed effective immediately for an indefinite period. That includes all shipping companies including FedEx. NOTHING is going in or out of the most important manufacturing hub in the world right now, and there is no timeframe on when it may reopen.
Supposedly, this is due to a Coronavirus outbreak. We all know that reason is crap. I suspect the invasion of Taiwan is about to begin. Can't think of any other event big enough to warrant this.
Just thought I would pass along the information in case anyone had any doubts.
I don't get it. What's wrong with the grammar here?
That run-on paragraph that GodBless posted is worded in the wrong sequence. As it reads now, the last part of the paragraph says cases of Covid we're contracted as a result of the testing procedure.
Hmm...I'm not sure how you can get that meaning, but it is definitely a run-on sentence and so I think it's certainly possible to interpret it in multiple, ambiguous ways. Here's how I interpreted it:
officials | found | more than 1,600 locally transmitted cases since March 4 | through mass testing
Officials - subject
Found - verb
more than 1,600 locally transmitted cases since March 4 - what they found
through mass testing - how they found it
Maybe you can help me see how to get the other interpretation by diagramming it differently.
