Baidu search index for SARS: https://imgur.com/a/3Sca2v8 https://imgur.com/a/3Sca2v8 .
The uptick started at mid-Dec. There is a tiny bump in early October, however, if you hover over it, the bump shows posts about comparing economic activity to the 2003 SARS period, not related to the disease.
- baybal2 6y agoI've seen a much different trend report. Now guess, what was a photoshop work. What was going around wx around first week of January, or what Baidu shows now. Given it's China, I would not take the photoshop theory as improbable. This is a first time I heard of a sound "October bump" explanation though.
