China is easing some of the world’s most stringent anti-virus controls. But they have yet to say when they might end a “zero-COVID” strategy that confines millions of people to their homes and set off protests and demands for President Xi to resign.

Ahead of the protests, the Communist Party promised to make “zero COVID” less costly and disruptive but said it was sticking to the overall containment strategy.

Despite the changes, Beijing and other cities are telling some residents to stay home or enforcing other restrictions on neighborhoods with infections. A negative virus test within the past 72 hours still is required to enter public buildings in vast metropolis of Chongqing in the southwest, a hotspot in the latest infection spike. Dining in restaurants in some parts of Beijing still is prohibited.A newspaper reported last week that some Beijing residents who have mild or asymptomatic COVID-19 cases would be allowed for the first time to isolate themselves at home instead of going to one of China’s sprawling quarantine centers.

Regulators have responded by freeing up more money for lending and are trying to encourage private investment in infrastructure projects. They have eased some financial controls on real estate developers to reverse a slump in one of China’s biggest industries.

Lol. China 'easing anti-virus controls' : Testing people FIVE times a week instead of six.

我们拥护习主席连任,我们拥护习主席带领我们走向伟大复兴!

zeroCovid to minimumCovid

“President Xi” (?!) 😳⚠️ he was not elected by the citizens, so he can not have the title of president , but a dictator ? Yes

herd immunity works covid politicians tool for fascism

The West's nasty gloating over China's ongoing phase-out of draconian Covid-zeroing is utterly hilarious and hideous after China's saving millions of lives and dwindling tens of millions of Covid infections through its grand anti-covid measures in the past three years.

We need to stop letting China make 95% of the shit we buy. They need to be taken down a peg or 4.

Democrats are so jealous of the power China has over its citizens.

It’s almost like lockdowns, mask rules and strict control doesn’t work…. Or something
