** 10,000
------------------------------------------------------------
"The numbers will guide us on re-openings. Today we see 200-300,000 new infections per day. If we get that down to less than 10,000 per day, we'll be in a very good place. So when we see that, we can gradually and prudently pull back these measures."

** 61.4%

The employment opportunities brought by Chinese economic reforms launched in the late 1970s led to a surge of people moving out of rural areas and into cities. Today, the urbanization rate in China stands at 61.4 percent.
