It is difficult to know exactly what China’s experience with COVID-19 has been. Such is the inevitable consequence of the country’s heavily controlled media and obviously fudged disease statistics.
Still, one assessment seems certain: China is still terrified by the virus. Consider the Zero COVID response in Jilin in the northeastern part of the country (emphasis mine) :
In Jilin, more than 95 per cent of the patients had only either mild symptoms or none at all, according to NHC official Jiao Yahui.
Nevertheless, as of Tuesday morning, more than 8,200 people were in hospital for Covid-19 in Jilin province, Jiao said.
“Moderate, severe and critical cases and patients at risk, such as the elderly and those with underlying illnesses, will be admitted to designated hospitals that are better equipped,” she said.
“Others, asymptomatic cases and those with mild cases, would be admitted to other designated and prefabricated hospitals.”
Why are “asymptomatic cases, and those with mild cases” being hospitalized at all? If they're asymptomatic, by definition they are not sick. Why waste finite hospital beds on those who have no need them
By any measure, China's extremism in the face of COVID-19 is unwarranted. Yet Zero COVID remains Beijing’s official pandemic policy, even though it has failed and is failing to halt the disease.
Mass formation, sadism and narcissism explain it. The Chinese rulers have personality disorders that stop them from ever admiting that they are wrong about anything, and instead they attack the ones pointing out that they are wrong.
This happens in every organization as the worst narcissists climb to power while also getting more sick in the process, but CCP's absolute power makes it extra vulnerable to this process.
On the other hand: Someone might be spraying spike proteins in the air and that is what causes the coldlike symptoms.
Yeah. What does China know about Covid, that we do not know, that makes it do things that appear totally crazy? It makes no sense... unless China knows something terrible about Covid.
Perhaps... That Covid is like airborne HIV? I discussed that in one of my articles.
The implications are terrifying and you are asking the right question.
As a survivor of "mild Covid", I am quite concerned.
