    I just got a Google notification on my phone for some "trending article". Let me quote it for you guys:

    COVID Finally Spins Out of Control in China as New Variant Takes Hold

    China appears to be losing the battle to contain COVID-19, but it’s not yet ready to admit defeat.

    [1 paragraph later...]

    For those in the Americas or Europe, the case numbers reported from China still seem pretty small: Authorities confirmed 1,337 new locally transmitted cases in mainland China on Monday. By contrast, the U.K. is currently seeing more than 200,000 cases a day, according to the main COVID tracker.

    Like, do these bastards even try anymore? They are now spelling out in their own articles, "we are using alarmist rhetoric to make China look like it's doing worse than it actually is".
