Claims it’s thanks to harsh lockdown.
A Reuters photo essay celebrates how residents of Wuhan are enjoying nightclubs and street parties without the need for masks or social distancing even as much of the rest of the world continues to labor under lockdown.
The article notes how young people living in the original epicenter of COVID-19 are now frolicking around in crowded beer halls and other venues.
“Nightlife in Wuhan is back in full swing almost seven months after the city lifted its stringent lockdown and the city’s young partygoers are embracing the catharsis,” states the piece, noting how maskless partygoers are spilling onto the streets.
A previous video showing residents of Wuhan enjoying a giant pool party was also heralded by the Chinese Communist Party as a “strategic victory” in its fight against the coronavirus.
The piece puts the city’s recovery down to “one of the strictest lockdowns worldwide,” noting that a new locally transmitted case of COVID-19 hasn’t been reported since May 10.
However, this fails to explain why similarly harsh lockdowns which were imposed in countries like Spain and Italy failed to prevent a second wave of the virus.
According to one of the individuals interviewed by Reuters, there are now more people enjoying the city’s nightlife than there was before the pandemic.
As we previously highlighted, not only is China back to normal, but its economy is enjoying a post-COVID surge that outstrips every other major country.
“A graph proposing GDP projections for various nations and areas showed that China was the only nation on the list to enjoy real GDP growth in 2020, with 1.8%, 8% in 2021 and 4.9% in 2022,” reported Sputnik.
“In comparison, the United States, having suffered a 3.7% drop in 2020, is set to achieve 3.2% and 3.5% real GDP growth in 2021 and 2022 respectively.”
No more skeptical journalists exist.
covid will kill them all soon / s
This doesn’t surprise me. The Chicom agents are spreading their bioweapons here, NOT CHINA!🇨🇳
“The Chicom agents are spreading their bioweapons here, “
Or the fear propaganda.
Imho: China most certainly has vaccinated most all of its people before they released and spread the Covid to other countries. They aren’t stupid and have planned their attack on the west to give themselves maximum advantage. The art of war.
How much more pathetic and backwards can it get?
