80% of the population has contracted COVID, claims China

 According to a well-known government expert, there is little chance of a significant COVID-19 comeback in China during the next two to three months because 80% of the population is sick.

Wu Zunyou, the chief epidemiologist at the China Center for Disease Control and Prevention, stated on the Weibo social media platform that a second COVID wave is unlikely in the near future despite the fact that the pandemic may spread due to the widespread movement of people during the ongoing Lunar New Year holiday period, boosting infections in some areas.

As a result of newly loosened COVID limitations, hundreds of millions of Chinese are traveling across the nation for holiday reunions, increasing concerns about new epidemics in rural areas that are less prepared to handle significant outbreaks.

According to a National Health Commission official, the number of COVID patients in China's fever clinics, emergency rooms, and critical situations has peaked.

According to government statistics, about 60,000 COVID patients had passed away in hospitals as of Jan. 12, or about a month after China abruptly ended its zero-COVID policy.

Because it doesn't include those who pass away at home and because many doctors have stated they are discouraged from listing COVID as a cause of death, several experts believe the number likely grossly underestimates the true impact.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has declared that Israel will “take control of all” of the Gaza Strip, signaling an unprecedented escalation in the ongoing conflict.
