Looking at the map of mainland China and the region
that was the epicenter of covid-19, it raises a question.

If you look at the surrounding provinces, and the reported
confirmed cases in them, they vary but are not anywhere
close to the number in the Hubei province with 67,801
confirmed cases.

Many of the surrounding provinces butt directly up to
the Hubei area but have far fewer confirmed cases.

For example, the Hunan region that is directly south
of the Hubei region only has 1,018 confirmed cases.
Other nearby regions are similar.

So, the question:

What did the Chinese government do to prevent the
spread out of the Hubei region?

Unlike in the USA, I suspect a form of Marshall Law
may have been imposed with the region surrounded by
the military who basically sealed off the area
preventing travel to or from the epicenter.

In the USA we could never get away with this
but perhaps it was the only way to control the
spread.

It is evident what the situation in China is by looking
