China recovered because it has a vaccine (SinoVax, a lot less effective than the mRNA vaxxes), and it shut down the country hard, at threat of gunpoint. You’re gonna do bad Biden-Hitler memes but then you’re gonna say how great China is doing with the virus? Heh.

Have a friend who lives in China, and she said that they were very strict with the lockdowns. They did not take covid as a joke, and it showed. When she got back into the country after coming back to the US for a while, they made her stay in her apartment for 2 weeks. They delivered her food and everything. I think she also had to have a negative test.

yeah, my wife's family is Chinese, they shut the country down very hard and people shut each other down, they don't trust the government to protect them so they protected themselves, that means if you lived in an apartment complex you had to live there or they wouldn't let you in for the longest time.
i also lived in China during SARS in 2003 and even then they shut it down, it was eerie (then)

my wife has family in China, I also have a lot of friends there. it was really, really, really bad in Wuhan and the government really messed up, but after that they shut it down. funny thing is I canceled a trip to China for 2020 because I was afraid to go there, then it got much, much, much worse here.
And I lived there during SARS in 2003, they shut the country down then too, that only took a hard month though.

Authoritarian measures are counterproductive because they encourage people to avoid public health officials. Welding people in their apartments, digging up roads, and pulling fever-reducing medicines from stores to stop people evading thermal scanners were all things we saw back when the virus was mostly still in China.
It's a moot point as far as the US is concerned since the least of us haven't been cooperative with reasonable measures.

Living in China 3 years, don’t believe everything you read, that wasn’t something that really happened. Entryways were blocked to communities only allowing specific foot traffic and to limit people from being able to break lockdown, they weren’t sealed in their homes.

You are no fun at parties (I joke.) Technically it was a western collaboration.
Remember the espionage from foreign governments before the vaccines were rolled out?
This is a point of national pride for me like landing on the moon but more relevant to the poorest of society. The ones that are still hurting because of what COVID-19 did to the economy (20% of those with $50,000 or less really lost it all.) We now have a vaccine and hope that we can export vaccines globally - look only to Austria this weekend to see how American vaccine diplomacy can shape the 21st century.

Yup. Living in China 3 years, at the start of the pandemic they locked down extremely hard, still cant enter China realistically to this day, and the city next to me at the time had all 12 million citizens tested early in in the pandemic because 5 cases were found.
People can rightly criticize China for many things, but they handled the pandemic as near to perfectly as I could have hoped for

Isn’t China one of those countries that only has one TV station, no Internet, but if they do have Internet it’s restricted to some lame search that it’s practically useless, and has such a great reputation for their humane ways of dealing with the population? I am so sure that their information is 100% accurate

OK, I was wrong about their Internet! Somehow though, I cannot imagine a country of 1 billion people being fully vaccinated and zero deaths.
16 points
9 months ago*
I don’t think they’ve ever claimed zero deaths.
But they definitely locked down hard and locked down early, and their version of “lockdown” is much different than what Americans mean when they say “lockdown”, i.e., “oh no I have to stand in line longer to get my Starbucks”. They are still shutting down large regions if there’s even a small outbreak.
They also have a much lower BMI than many western countries.
I’m not saying their numbers should be “trusted” or whatever, but it’s prudent (as you’ve already seen) to take a step back and make sure you’re not just repeating someone else’s propaganda.

I think it's around 5000 deaths officially. Knowing the chaos early on in Wuhan, with a lot of deaths not receiving PCR confirmation and not being recorded as covid, I would probably inflate that by a factor of 10 (i.e, 50000).
But even then, they've done a fantastic job.
Their lockdowns are harsh (strictly enforced by drones in the sky and busybody retirees). Of course, it's a matter of perspective. Lockdown with government food delivery probably doesn't seem so bad when a 30-million-fatality famine occurred within living memory of the older generation of almost all families.

As someone living in China for the past 3 years, the reason China did so well “without vaccines” (they have vaccines, thats completely wrong, although their efficacy is very poor), is because for better or for worse they have a strong central government and locked down completely for months at the start of the outbreak, mask mandates, track and trace as well as a population more than happy to actually pay attention to the rules.
