Hmm. Warning signals about C19 in China from commentators in the financial sector
“China faces a surge in Covid-19 infections as Beijing dismantles strict pandemic controls and embraces a faster reopening of the economy. The abrupt shift in policy is very problematic because not everyone is celebrating the easing of zero Covid rules, as many are hunkering down amid the winter Covid wave. “
“People are staying home, avoiding stores and restaurants, and other public areas as they panic hoard staple items to survive the Covid wave, which could impact an estimated 80 to 90% of the Chinese population, according to a new projection by Feng Zijian, a former deputy chief at China's Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. “
“"As China enters its first winter with Omicron, things could get worse before getting better," Citigroup analysts told clients last month.
Bloomberg's Fazeli said the reopening could result in some 5 million people hospitalized and up to 700,000 deaths. “
We will have to watch this space. Fingers crossed the SinoVac does a good job.
And????So what? I'm sorry. Viruses have virused time immemorial. I'm not falling for the propaganda anymore. Why is this a story.
As there was no COV19 virus, except in a computer model, there is no Omicron either! I find NO reason to trust Bloomberg news, quite the contrry. However,I do believe that in the winter cold, heavy pollution in Chinese cities (which is thick with fumes!) will cause lot of respiratory and other problems. WHY USE A NON- EXISTENT VIRUS AS A COVER STORY FOR POLLUTION, which hardly gets media attention???
