So, China has finally scraped its ridiculous “zero COVID” policy, which I had long criticized as being beyond stupid, but I did not expect China to shake the bottle of champagne and then pop the cork. Yet, that is exactly what they did: Essentially end the policy without any plan. And they have admitted as much because they stated to their citizens that they are now on their own when it comes to managing COVID prevention, monitoring, and even healthcare. The government basically washed its hands of the pandemic instead of a slow and managed reversal of zero COVID. Part of me believes this is intentional. I think China wants to demonstrate to its populace and the world that a strong authoritarian government is needed to keep order and the citizens safe, for what is about to befall the country and the world by allowing COVID to spread unchecked is another fucking goddamned disaster. Thanks, China, for fucking us over again — still!
What do you think will happen as COVID rages through a population of 1.7 billion with little to no herd immunity? Their vaccines suck because their science sucks, and they suck. Moreover, China continues to be a bad actor on the world stage when it comes to informing world health organizations about what deadly diseases are tearing through that fucking God-forsaken shithole of a country. China is about to become a super spreader event. Lord knows what kind of mutations will start spewing out of that country. What a fucking disaster in the making. They fucked the world once at the beginning of this pandemic, and they’ll do it again. Mark my words. When will the world wake up to this dictatorship and stop doing business with them? Welcome to stupid America!
