Summary of the Essential Eight: Reopening - The government will stop reporting asymptomatic cases but still report the meaningless official symptomatic case data, Covid czar Sun Chunlan inspected Beijing, the government announced a second booster for vulnerable groups, and while there are still no reports of significant numbers of deaths we are hearing more about medical staff getting sick and hospitals getting strained. There is no turning back, and I am hearing the the quarantine policy for foreigners will officially shift to 0+3 in the second week of January.
Our Beloved Leader, not to be outdone by Mao, is ushering in his Viral Revolution. Will it last 10 years? That unctuous and fulsome article, is the writer intending to embarrass Xi?
There have been deaths with COVID in Beijing. But the "experts" have determined the cause of death is not COVID but some underlying disease. The official death figure will remain very low to encourage people not to be afraid of COVID now that they have decided to open up. Before that they did report death with co-morbidities, but I am afraid they will no more.
Is Xi and/or the CCP going to tell the Chinese people to go to the mall in spite of COVID like Bush 2 did to the American people after 9/11??
