I can't read Chinese and am only seeing things peep out on twitter last night and this morning
Is any official stance changing?
Is this supposedely in response to the protests? Those didn't seem for lack of a better word.....real. Or at least natively organic.
Are you able to view wastewater data?
Doesn't seem to be readily available, no. However all the people I know that work in hospitals aren't reporting more hospitalizations than usual, and the official death statistics aren't nearly as bad as last year. Also people around me aren't getting it nearly as often, all my colleagues haven't had it in months.
Also all the surrounding countries seem to have similar data.
🤞
The really bad spike last year was in January so we're not in the clear yet but for now this year does seem way less severe.
I watch wastewater in the US and our numbers have started to rise.😔 That combined with RSV, the Flu, and a significant chunk of the population being immunocompromised... it's likely gonna be a rough winter.
