Cover Story: This study first analyzes the national and global infection status of the coronavirus disease that emerged in 2019 (COVID-19). It then uses the trend comparison method to predict the key point of the COVID-19 virus by comparison with severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) graphs, followed by using several methods to predict infections, deaths, and GDP in China. Finally, it discusses and assesses the impact of these results. This study argues that even if the risks and impacts of the epidemic are significant, China’s economy will continue to maintain steady development. View this paper.
