We don’t really understand how this virus works and it’s not going away anytime soon. We just need to accept it and move on.

I know in Africa, where healthcare, vaccinations, mask etc were not up to standard, but covid did not decimate the population of the continent like it was predicted. When someone died of Covid, they were buried quickly and life went on.

The right way, the wrong way and the Max Power way
Was they suppose to stay in lockdown forever? They been in for 3 years lol. Stupid ass logic

Government needed to do a better job with the vaccines and shyt. But we all knew they was lying about numbers and shyt

We got some social cripples here who would happily live the rest of their lives in lockdown. Also that tweet is nothing but a load of Chinese propaganda... Remember the videos of people dropping dead in the street from covid? Complete bullshyt.

And yet only 6% of the continent’s population was fully vaccinated. Makes you wonder.

Meanwhile, a lot of new data on these clot shots is starting to surface.

But how will u enforce full control over the population. That clown Xi was thinking he could use this to keep people down instead of at least trying to make decent knockoffs of the mRNA joints we've been using. He was too cheap and proud to just import from Pfizer
It's like the scene in the Wire where Slim was like we gonna die on the lie. Can't have a superpower importing vaccines i guess :pachaha:

Half the muthaphukas on this site must be Chinese with the way they was promoting lockdowns.

The initial lockdowns in the US undoubtedly saved hundreds of thousands of lives prior to the vaccine. If everyone just kept it moving, so many more would have died. I truly believe this. The difference between the US/rest of the world and China is that China never got vaccinated. They got covid evoliving like Pokemon over there. 2023 is gonna be a wild one.

Banning travel from China may be the only option until the Chinese govt gets their affairs in order.

This is a serious crisis that can cause this whole covid bullshyt to flair up worse than before

Yeah. The world also closed its borders to US travellers and other nations during the height of covid.

Covid wont go away in China because of their generally poor hygienic standards and attitudes. Imagine covid is wreaking havoc in China but not dirty India :patrice:

Residents purchase snacks at a night market in Chongqing, China, on December 14.

Residents purchase snacks at a night market in Chongqing, China, on December 14.

The sprawling Chinese metropolis of Chongqing announced Sunday that public sector employees testing positive for Covid-19 can go to work “as normal,” a remarkable turnaround for a city that only weeks ago had been in the throes of a mass lockdown.

The move comes as China continues to quickly unravel its once-stringent zero-Covid policy, with local governments across the nation relaxing costly rules around testing, quarantine and other pandemic policies amid a widespread economic downturn.

“Asymptomatic and mildly ill employees of the (Communist Party) and government organizations at all levels, enterprises and institutions can go to work normally after taking protective measures as necessary for their health status and job requirements,” the Chongqing pandemic response office said in a statement published on the municipal government’s website.

It added that government agencies would no longer check employees – including police, public school teachers and other workers – for daily negative Covid tests. Instead, authorities will shift the focus of work from preventing infection to health protection and preventing severe disease, it said.

The abrupt U-turn is especially stunning in Chongqing, one of China’s largest cities, with 32 million residents and annual GDP of $400 billion.

Jerry Cheng, who works at a state-owned construction company in the city and is currently Covid positive, voiced concerns about the announcement.

“I won’t go unless they call my name,” he told CNN. “It’s definitely not a good thing to have a group of infected people working together,” he said, adding the new policy was to protect the local economy.

Cheng’s anxiety was reflected on Weibo, China’s version of Twitter, on Monday as Chongqing residents reacted to the announcement.

“Why do you need to go and infect healthy people?” read one top comment. Another user wrote: “This is going from one extreme to the other.”

Several other places in China, including the eastern city of Wuhu and the province of Zhejiang, also announced similar measures this week.

Chongqing, a hub for industry and agriculture, became a Covid hotspot last month. More than a million residents were told not to leave the city unless absolutely necessary, and several rounds of daily mass testing were rolled out.

When China’s Vice Premier Sun Chunlan visited Chongqing on November 22, she urged local authorities to take “swift and decisive measures” to contain the outbreak by identifying positive cases and their close contacts, according to state-run outlet Global Times.

But by then, some residents were losing patience. Three years of zero-Covid had taken its toll on the economy, disrupting daily life and people’s livelihoods.

Photos from Chongqing had gone viral online in August, showing huge crowds standing under the sun for hours during a record heat wave as they waited for mandatory Covid tests. In the background, plumes of smoke from wildfires rose above the skyline.

Reflecting the growing frustration, one Chongqing resident delivered a searing speech in late November criticizing the lockdown of his residential compound, shouting to a cheering crowd: “Without freedom, I would rather die!”

Nationwide protests against the zero-Covid policy – and in some cases, against the central leadership itself – broke out just days later, markingthe most significant challenge to the Communist Party and Chinese leader Xi Jinping in decades.

The country’s rapid rollback of Covid restrictions came soon after. And while the easing of rules, such as allowing Covid patients to isolate at home instead of being taken to a government quarantine center, is a long-awaited relief for many,skyrocketing cases have also prompted widespread anxiety among a population that had been largely shielded from the virus since 2020.

According to CNN calculations based on a study from Hong Kong researchers released last week, the country’s Covid death toll could reach almost one million over the course of its reopening.
