I'm inclined to look at it from what Pooh can derive from the established vector, and clearly that is:
To extrapolate Pooh's experiment with 'locking down' 1M Uyghurs, to 'locking down' 100M of his own Chine.
Certainly the PLA and the Communist Party mandarins who can afford a 2nd apartment there, knowing the capital's much greater access to doctors and medicine!
And why hasn't Pooh been seen in a week? It's easier to find Kim Pork-bun!
