There were changes after SARS that led to better containment and reporting measures in China, Hong Kong, Singapore, etc.

Sure, the initial cases were clearly messed up, but it has mostly been contained in Hong Kong and Singapore. And with the way this disease has progressed, I would bet many countries are going to overtake China in case counts.

I second what you said and I add that these outbreaks did not have such a massive impact on the western world
