    And the US chart.


    Kind of important to note that we are back to a very modest case fatality rate, and no lockdowns, so it appears that the worst is over. How is that going to work out for China if they can never exit lockdowns?

    People still think this is about a virus.  “Severity” of the outbreak “could have been controlled.”   Let’s stop there, because it’s all nonsense.  Covid can’t be controlled.  It’s endemic and highly transmissible.  It’s also mutated to be the equivalent of a bad cold.  

    China is quarantining and going full 1984 Dystopia because Covid is just the excuse to do so.  They are rounding up people over Covid and taking them to camps.  They have constant surveillance testing.  They lock down cities of millions because of a handful of cases.   They have a social credit system that makes that episode of Black Mirror look like a picnic.  Xi just had the former president purged on camera.  They will soon move on Taiwan.  

    So no.  It’s not about a virus.  It’s about the CCP.

    It’s also not wrong to call Covid a cold.

    I have had covid 2 times  and I had colds much worse

    chinese communist government needs to calm the f down with this Covid cold before losing all the foreign companies and destroy its entire economy 
    It is deadly if you transmit the virus to seniors and people with underlying conditions. Many people are careless and selfish. Calling Chinese government communist is making a health issue political. 
    Isn't it already obvious the post you replied to is full of misinformation and bias?  It really didn't deserve a response.  The Mad person clearly only focuses on him/herself.

    Younger people died also.  People with no underlying health issues dies.  While most people survived (and many I know were very miserable for weeks) and a lot have long-term COVID (is there a long-term COLD?) the Mad guy shouldn't be comparing COVID to a cold.
