This has been reported many months ago I've first read about it. This must be a re-report. Anyways, 6 more months into 2022, so what. Think about it, what good does it do to itself economically, socially, soft power wise, overseas Chinese's sentiments, global offices, what good does it do to itself by closing up for so long and wasting all resources doing province wide testing? Wild guess maybe buying time to vaccinate booster shots to majority of the population, or come up with its own DNA and mRna vaccines which is reportedly in the making. Many Chinese citizens online have been nagging about the recent lockdowns over new cases, citing something like, what's the point of the vaccines which have reached over 70% of the population if we still can't live with the virus and have to endure job losses and lockdowns. True story.
