The disastrous implications of lifting Zero-COVID in China
www.wsws.org
The objective laws of viral transmission mean that any shift away from a Zero-COVID elimination strategy carries with it the potential for the situation to quickly spiral out of control.

(note: while WSWS (trot site) uses CCP instead of CPC, they generally have good takes on China and support China against US imperialism)

(note: to clarify, this article is in support of Zero-COVID and sees the lifting of the policy as a grave mistake)

(note: i do not necessarily support all the shit wsws says i am not a fucking trot)

    Yeah. I have been deliberately ignoring this bc manmade horrors beyond my comprehension. In addition to mass death and suffering in China this is also going to lead to vast, horrible reprecussions as China's economy is disrupted by mass death and suffering, so this will have planetary reprecussions.
