China has implemented the Zero Covid policy for three years, and despite some of its mistakes, it has generally gotten more credit than credit. But now, sadly, China has greatly deregulated Covid. In some cities, nucleic acid test results are no longer required, and in Baoding, Hebei, even positive patients are not quarantined. I saw some complaints from Baoding residents on Weibo. Under the local government’s “live with the virus” policy, some people tested positive for antigens but could not be tested for nucleic acid. Some people complained that people in their neighborhoods were infected with the virus and had fevers up to 39 degrees but could not contact with a hospital, perhaps because of a run on medical resources.

    A bit ironic. Considering the separatist movement in Xinjiang was fueled by US funding, it could be said that the Urumqi deaths were the fault of the US government.
