I think global pandemic is pretty much confirmed at this point. The real question is how much it will damage economies on a global scale. Finding a cure or vaccine is critical for minimizing damage.
There is no cure.

All that happens now is to slow down the spread to decrease the overload of the medical systems in every country.

Brief extract

China’s health commission confirmed 648 new infections on Sunday - higher than a day earlier - but only 18 were outside of Hubei province, the lowest number outside of the epicenter since authorities started publishing data a month ago.

But new infections outside of China continued to worry world health authorities, with South Korea on Sunday reporting a fourth death due to the virus and 123 new cases, bringing its total to 556, having doubled from Friday to Saturday.


Cases in Italy, Europe’s worst hit country, more than quadrupled to 79 on Saturday, with two deaths. Ten new cases in Iran took the total to 29 there, and six deaths, deepening unease at home and in neighboring countries in the Gulf.

Here is another one about construction worker who built the make shift hospital who donated his wages to fight the virus
"I just want to pay back." Liu Zhiqiang, a once impoverished villager from China's Hunan, donated all his income earned from being a worker for Wuhan's second makeshift hospital to aid

I think China has waited too long to lift internal travel restrictions and reignite the economy. With COVID-19's extreme high transmissibility, it's impossible to eliminate, so the goal should be to keep the size of the outbreak within the capacity of the healthcare system while maximize economic activities. When there is no new case for days (as it's the case for many provinces in China), economic potential are being wasted.
