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)

    Yes, both are problems. That said, I live somewhere where white people are maybe 1% of the population and the government is still very much mandating (but not enforcing) masks. Most of the unmasked people I see walking around are white Westerners, and of those unmasked white Westerners, the vast majority were men.
