China ZERO COVID goes even more insane and outrageous, non-science based: "Beijing kids must take a PCR Covid-19 test to play in the park"; why? 22 cases prompts China to constant cycle of lockdowns?
ZERO-COVID; China has FAILED!; you strongly protect elderly & vulnerable, & allow rest of society to live reasonably unfettered normal lives; China will never get out of lockdown inconstant cycles!
Importantly, they are destroying economies, their social fabric, yet key is they are denying the base population in moving toward population level herd immunity with natural exposure immunity. They will not be able to get out of this lockdown madness as the population is not building proper levels of natural immunity to rely on for future exposures. And look at the graph.

But... as a senior with auto-immune health problems, yet who recovers quickly from infrequent colds or flus and easily survived first round Sars2 and later, Omicron, thanks to good nutrition, care of microbiome, and fortification of innate immunity with exercise, mental positivity and ordinary health store supplements, I wonder what you mean by "strongly protect" people like me? I sure as hell don't agree with being isolated and not being allowed to live a normal life like "rest of society" just because I'm old and vulnerable. My immune system NEEDS to be challenged with circulating viruses to do its best job, just like the rest of society. I refuse to be hidden away "for my own good" just because stupid frightened politicians have embraced totalitarianism.
This is not about COVID at all. I just spoke w/ a friend whose parents live in the mess right now. What this is Dr. Alexander is a way for the government to show power and control of its people...ensuring that when they attack Taiwan the people are controlled and don’t revolt. This is the most extreme example of a power grab. This has NOTHING TO DO WITH COVID.
