I wonder if the Chinese people will ever rise up and say NO MORE to this crap?

[lightman]

The hubris of “Zero Covid” is coming home to roost.

‘bout time.

[Big Red Badger]

Will We ,
As the Super Power
of the Free World ???

I wonder if China is trying to start another world shutdown....

I wonder if China is trying to start another world shutdown....

I think they’d like to.

And I know there are Democrats who are nostalgic for those spring of 2020 days when things were shut down, the economy was in free-fall, people were avoiding being near each other, enjoyable events were canceled and people went around with their faces covered, looking like idiots.

But I believe there are more of us than they realize who won’t go along with that crap again. Some of us didn’t go along with it the first time around.

Zero Covid is impossible.

No GDP released for three straight quarters, and lockdowns.
Great economic policy.

[Not A Snowbird]

The country has continued to implement its strategy of eliminating cases entirely, including aggressive lockdowns and containment measures

Yeah, how's that working for you, China?

[Ignatz]

More dead bats are escaping from the market?

[butlerweave]

with a population of 1.5 billion that’s ridiculous

[DouglasKC]

But China’s strategy has also limited those who were exposed to the virus, preventing the buildup of a large natural immunity in the population despite high vaccination levels.

Same thing with Australia now as I understood it. And they scoffed when anyone brought up natural immunity and exposure as a way to shorten it...

[marron]

Trying to fight the virus seems to do more harm than good.

Did anyone tell them about ivermectin?

[silverleaf]

The leadership here is acculturated to never admiit a mistake.
Like stubbornly trying to conquer an airborne manmade virus via “ zero covid’ policy

That, plus they insisted on using only their own home-brewed "vaccine" which is even less effective than Pfizer's....yes, such a thing is possible.

[srmanuel]

It would really difficult to do that in China, the country is so large and the flow of information and tracking of people is so controlled it makes any organization really difficult if not impossible.

In isolated instances, like the IPhone factory that is still ongoing, people have been rioting and have overwhelmed the local police and some concessions have been granted.

Information is so contained that I read somewhere when the Authorities decided to crackdown on the tiananmen square rioters they had to bring in troops from outside of Beijing because the local troops would not fire on their neighbors and in some cases family members.

[Reagan80]

More likely they’ll give in to despair with rising suicide rates and crashing (even more) birth rates.

Nothing out of china is factual.

Fact.

That means any conclusion based upon such inaccuracies are rooted in fantasy or, worse, delusion.

[airborne]

I think it's the 1.5 billion that they are considering.

Considering thinning the herd, that is.

😉👍

[George from New England]

“Nothing out of china is factual.”

My immediate thought too.

Immediate thought was: What and who are they trying to manipulate now ??

[toddausauras]

This is our excuse to shut the door on them...no entry.
