Good morning!  I hope you slept well and feel rested?  Currently sitting in my study, fully dressed and ready to go!  Welcome to 2024!
Welcome to the working week although, for those of you working in the NHS, welcome to just another day.
It’s currently 2.30 a.m.  The cab will be here at 3.30.  By the time most of you are reading this, I will be at Heathrow Airport, killing time.  Flight leaves at 8.00 a.m.  Ten-hour flight.  Arrives Montego Bay 1.00 p.m.
I’m going to spend a few days with a mate.  The rest of them are going to the family house.  I will join them in time for the wake.
Many thanks to everyone that listened to the radio show.  If you missed it, it’s up on Mixcloud.  It gave me a lot of pleasure to feature three acts that don’t get enough recognition: Sly & The Family Stone, Sylvester and The Salsoul Orchestra. 
My father in law’s funeral is on Saturday, January 6th, which is why I won’t be able to do my radio show.  I’ll be back live in the studio on Saturday, January 13th.
I wouldn’t describe this trip as a ‘holiday’.  The Trouble is there to bury her dad and give him a good send-off.  She’ll be fragile for a while. 
Definitely looking forward to some sunshine.  It’s 26 degrees in JA today, rising to 31 on Saturday.  I plan to be outdoors as much as possible and get some colour on this sad, pasty skin.
I’m taking my laptop, so I should be able to do some kind of status every day.  I’m looking forward to spending time with my JA family, who will ensure that Daddy’s funeral is a memorable day.
I hope your New Year’s Eve went well, whatever you did.  Some people like raving, while some are happy to drink (and fall asleep) in front of the TV.  I had fun at The White Lion, as you can see from my pictures.
2024 will be whatever you want it to be.  Yes, there will be challenges and disappointments (just like 2023) but that’s life.  Like Frankie Beverley said, life is a subtle balance of joy and pain, sunshine and rain.  Outside of the inevitable ups and downs, 2024 is down to you.  If you work hard and work smart, 2024 will be a brilliant year for you. 
Have a marvellous and momentous Monday.  I love you all.

China expands covid-19 lockdowns

As frustrated demonstrators take to the streets across China to protest the government's draconian COVID-19 restrictions -- prompting rare civil unrest and clashes between the public and officials -- the Biden White House is choosing its words carefully and deliberately.
Top US officials who have been closely monitoring the unrest in China have made two things clear in the past few days: that the Biden administration supports any people's right to peacefully protest and that it simply does not see China's so-called zero-COVID policy as a sound approach.
But administration officials have been careful not to step beyond the contours of those public comments, carefully stepping around broader questions about the US's assessment of the situation or its potential future role in supporting the Chinese people's cries for more freedom.
That sensitivity and caution is in no small part a reflection of the deeply complicated -- and tenuous -- place that US-Chinese relations currently stand. The two countries' relationship had reached its lowest point in decades this year, with tensions fueled by the standoff over Taiwan, economic disputes and other areas of disagreements.
A senior US official emphasized to CNN that the White House is being careful not to overstate the nature of the protests, noting that while there have been some calls for Xi Jinping to step down, as of now, most of the protests in the country of over one billion people seem small, localized and aimed more at the narrow goals of ending the COVID lockdowns and securing better working conditions than a loftier push for democracy.
"We have to be very careful of not creating a distorted reality," the official said.
A historic bilateral meeting between President Joe Biden and Xi earlier this month on the sidelines of the G20 summit in Bali, Indonesia -- the first in-person meeting between the two men since Biden took office -- was aimed at marking a starting point of sorts in trying to strengthen those strained relations.
And while that meeting, which spanned more than three hours, hardly resolved some of the longest standing issues between the two superpowers, Biden and top officials made clear afterward that there was general agreement on the importance of keeping lines of communications open between Washington and Beijing -- and finding area of common ground.
"It was not an easy meeting," another senior US official told CNN, "but they both understood that they represent countries with very different views of the world, which need to manage competition responsibly." Other officials said the US and China relationship at least now had a "floor," with both countries in relative agreement on issues like climate change and the danger of Russia using a nuclear weapon.
This week, the White House has insisted that the administration intends to continue building on that progress.
"There's been no change to our desire to continue to see these channels of communication stay open, and we were heartened coming away from the G20 that both leaders were able to agree on getting some of these working-level discussions back open," National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby said in the White House briefing room on Monday.
The first senior US official said that there have been "zero concessions" to China since the Biden-Xi meeting took place, but acknowledged that both countries have backed into their respective corners when it comes to openly hostile rhetoric — a deliberate approach to avoid a continued deterioration in relations.
A separate senior administration official said, however, that, "To us, this is not about the US-China relationship. This is about the fundamental right of peaceful protests and the ability of the protestors to speak for themselves. We are watching this closely."
Asked by one reporter whether the protests in China may mark a moment for the US to "more forcefully" advocate for freedom and democracy -- particularly given how forcefully Biden has spoken out about the important distinction between autocracy and democracy both at home and abroad -- Kirby responded: "This is, I think, a moment to reassert what we believe in when it comes to free assembly and peaceful protest."
"And we've done that and will continue to do that," Kirby continued, "whether it's people protesting in Iran or China or anywhere else around the world."
What Kirby didn't mention was that Biden himself has weighed in much more forcefully on the unfolding protests in Iran -- even saying at a campaign event earlier this month: "We're going to free Iran. They're going to free themselves pretty soon."
Officials argued to CNN, however, that in the White House's view, the protests in Iran and in China are not comparable, at least for now. In Iran, the regime is routinely killing protesters, who themselves are fighting for a largely unified goal: an end to the Islamic Republic, following the deaths of women in the custody of Iran's so-called "morality police." Still, White House officials do view the protests in China as remarkable because they are evidence that Beijing's total information blackout is cracking, a senior official said.
Asked to elaborate on how the US is weighing the protests in China given the context of the tenuous Washington-Beijing relationship -- and what role the US believes it might play as people in China call out for more freedom -- one senior administration official said it would be best, for now, to leave the answer to that question of: "We are watching this closely."
DIFFICULTY ASSESSING SCOPE OF PROTESTS
While Biden administration officials have been closely monitoring the situation on the ground for several days, one US official acknowledged it was still difficult to assess the scope and scale of what was taking place on the ground. The early stage nature of the protests, along with the inherent unpredictability of such events, has played a role into the nature of the response, the official said.
But so, too, has the concern that, shared by several top senior Biden national security team officials, that appearing to lean toward the protesters would actually have the effect of undercutting what's taking place. The concern that Chinese officials would use any US response as an effort to paint the protests as a malign foreign effort to undermine China has been a closely considered factor, a senior administration official said.
White House officials have kept explicit and intentional distance from the more fiery calls from protesters related to Xi and the communist party. There is no plan to shift that position, part of an implicit acknowledgment of a reality that carries bilateral and geopolitical consequences of enormous significance.
Still, the White House has continued to monitor events closely -- and Biden has been kept regularly updated -- as US officials attempt to assess how the protests will progress and, perhaps more importantly, how Chinese officials will respond should the effort grow in size and intensity.
US officials have declined to weigh in on what actions, if any, would be taken if a particularly harsh crackdown comes in the days or weeks ahead. "We're not doing hypotheticals right now," one official said. "We're watching closely and just don't have anything more than that."

Hello and welcome to the shaoshan collective covid masterpost! Here all informations that have been posted here or on the channel will be easily available in both Italian and English language,do to the enormous amount of sources they will be at the bottom of the master post,feel free to link this post in any discussion and for your own research,the shaoshan collective takes great pride in his accuracy and scientific approach
The post is machine translated
The translation is at the bottom
The collective is on telegram
⚠️ ALLENTAMENTO DELLE MISURE DI PREVENZIONE E CONTROLLO, PARTE 1 - ELIMINAZIONE DI CERTI OBBLIGHI ⚠️
🇨🇳 Le Autorità di numerose città, soprattutto quelle più grandi e più popolate, hanno ottimizzato le Misure di Controllo e Prevenzione seguendo e perfezionando le Direttive della Nona Edizione del Piano di Prevenzione e Controllo, nonché le 20 Misure per Ottimizzare la Prevenzione, che includono:
📄 Eliminazione dell'obbligo di frequenti Test Molecolari, che finora erano GRATUITI.
📄 Eliminazione dell'obbligo di fornire i risultati dei Test Molecolari per l'utilizzo dei mezzi pubblici.
🌃 A Shanghai, il Governo ha annunciato che eliminerà la necessità di un risultato negativo al Test Molecolare per mezzi pubblici e luoghi all'aperto - 📄 Fonte.
🌆 A Shenzhen, il Governo ha rilasciato una dichiarazione di conferma che i residenti non avranno più bisogno di fornire un certificato di Test Molecolare quando entrano in luoghi pubblici come farmacie e attrazioni, così come non sarà più obbligatorio per mezzi pubblici, mentre rimarrà obbligatorio negli aeroporti e nelle stazioni ferroviarie, dove ogni giorno circolano centinaia di migliaia di persone - 📄 Fonte.
🏙 A Ürümqi, le autorità - che hanno incontrato i manifestanti durante proteste legittime, non come quelle eterodirette da USA e UK a Shanghai - stanno intensificando gli sforzi per promuovere la piena ripresa delle attività produttive, lavorative e commerciali, e riapriranno persino gli impianti sciistici della città - 📄 Fonte in fondo
🏛 Anche a Pechino sono state introdotte misure di allentamento, come l'eliminazione dell'obbligo di presentare il risultato del Test Molecolare su autobus e metropolitane, anch'esse frequentate da milioni di cittadini ogni giorno - 📄 Fonte in fondo
🌇 Anche a Guangzhou e Chengdu sono state revocate numerose restrizioni, eliminando l'obbligo di dover presentare un risultato negativo del Test Molecolare per prendere autobus e metropolitane - 📄 Fonte in fondo
🏙 Anche a Chongqing sono state revocate le restrizioni, e le autorità hanno invitato i residenti a effettuare Test Molecolari solo quando strettamente necessario, e - inoltre - le autorità locali hanno cessato di fornire Test Molecolari gratuiti a partire da domenica, secondo il principio "ogni persona è individualmente responsabile della propria salute" - 📄 Fonte in fondo
📊 Un Test Molecolare costerà 2,6 Yuan, ovvero 0,35€ a persone per un campione combinato, e 13 Yuan, ovvero 1,77€, per Test Individuali.
🏭 A Guangzhou, a partire da sabato quasi 7.700 imprese chiave, 18.000 unità di ristorazione e 219.000 imprese all'ingrosso e al dettaglio e 122 impianti industriali nel Distretto di Tianhe hanno ripreso completamente il lavoro e la produzione, come dichiarato da Huang Kaixuan, Vice-Capo Esecutivo del Distretto.
🏨 La Commissione per la Salute di Pechino ha esortato i residenti ad adempiere al proprio dovere nella prevenzione del COVID-19 e ad "essere loro stessi i primi responsabili della propria salute"
🧾 Tali misure - che sicuramente alleggeriscono l'onere sulla Gestione delle Comunità, messe a dura prova, come negli altri paesi del mondo, nei tre anni di COVID-19 - non devono essere viste come "un'apertura improvvisa" o un "allentamento totale delle restrizioni COVID-19", ma come una risposta delle autorità agli sviluppi della situazione.
📄 Su questo tema, sul perché non si può "lasciarsi andare" o "continuare a fare affari come sempre" per quanto riguarda le misure COVID-19, ci saranno dei post a parte, per trattare al meglio la questione.
🩻 Wang Guangfa - Esperto di Pneumologia presso il Primo Ospedale dell'Univeristà di Pechino - ha affermato che tali aggiustamenti non devono essere visti nell'ottica di una completa apertura, ma come un'ottimizzazione delle misure di prevenzione e controllo in linea con le caratteristiche della variante del virus, che permette il raggiungimento di un nuovo equilibrio tra controllo dell'epidemia e misure economico-sociali.
⚠️ ALLENTAMENTO DELLE MISURE DI PREVENZIONE E CONTROLLO, PARTE 2 - DALLA PREVENZIONE DEL VIRUS ALLA PREVENZIONE DI CASI GRAVI E DECESSI | PATOGENICITÀ E VIRULENZA ⚠️
📄 Nel post precedente è stato citato Wang Guangfa - Esperto di Pneumologia presso il Primo Ospedale dell'Univeristà di Pechino - che ha affermato come i nuovi aggiustamenti non debbano essere visti come completa apertura, ma come ottimizzazione delle misure di prevenzione e controllo in linea con le caratteristiche della variante del virus, e questo sarà il tema del post.
🦠 Per contenere un virus altamente contagioso, ma con virulenza più debole, il costo delle Misure di Controllo dell'Epidemia è molto più elevato rispetto quello delle misure precedenti nel trattare ceppi con minore contagiosità, ma con maggiore virulenza come la Variante DELTA, il che rende necessario gli attuali adeguamenti, ma "è improbabile che usciremo dalla pandemia in breve tempo questo inverno, poiché molti paesi stanno affrontando simili rinascite", ha dichiarato Wang Guangfa.
🔬Un Team di Ricerca Cinese ha dimostrato che la patogenicità di OMICRON è diminuita rispetto al Ceppo originale del Coronavirus e alle sue altre Varianti 📉
🏨 Patogenicità e Virulenza delle Varianti del COVID-19 sono le questioni-chiave su cui si sono concentrati gli scienziati cinesi, ed è stato scientificamente dimostrato al Laboratorio di Virologia dell'Università di Wuhan la drastica diminuzione della patogenicità di OMICRON 📉
🔬Per chi fosse interessato al processo e all'esperimento che ha portato alla dimostrazione, può leggere in fondo
💬 Lan Ke, Direttore del Laboratorio, ha affermato che i risultati ottenuti dimostrano che rispetto al Ceppo Originale, OMICRON ha una capacità più debole di causare malattie combinata con una virulenza inferiore - e che quindi non bisogna farsi prendere dal panico per OMICRON, in quanti i danni che causa sono notevolmente minori rispetto al Ceppo Originale 📉
🧾 In precedenza, un Documento di Ricerca pubblicato da scienziati dell'Università di Hong Kong e della Università Medica dell'Hainan nel gennaio del 2022 aveva dimostrato che la replicazione di OMICRON si è sostanzialmente attenuata nelle cellule umane Calu3 e CaCO2, e che OMICRON - rispetto a BETA e DELTA - provoca il più basso tasso di mortalità 📉
📑 Il Processo di Apertura e Uscita dalla Pandemia da COVID-19 dovrebbe procedere passo dopo passo e non subire brusche virate, come ha affermato Chen Xi - Assistente Professore di Sanità Pubblica dell'Università Yale, e il nuovo focus sarà la preparazione e l'impiego di più risorse mediche per i casi gravi, dato che la virulenza di OMICRON è minore alle precedenti Varianti.
📊 Come ad Hong Kong, anche nelle altre zone della Cina la priorità è quale di completare il processo di vaccinazione - che in Cina non è obbligatorio - degli ultra-ottantenni, e poi tra i 60-69 e i 70-79, in quanto gruppi ad alto rischio 🏥
💬 "Per uscire dall'Epidemia, è fondamentale costruire l'immunità tra i gruppi vulnerabili e il lavoro futuro non si concentrerà sull'eliminazione completa del virus attraverso i Test, ma dovrebbe concentrarsi sul mantenere la virulenza del virus ad un livello molto basso", ha dichiarato Zhang Wenhong, Epidemiologo di Shanghai.
💬 "Ora stiamo spostando la nostra strategia dalla prevenzione del virus alla prevenzione di casi gravi e decessi, quindi dobbiamo concentrarci maggiormente sulla popolazione vulnerabile chiave", ha affermato Wang Guangfa.
⚠️ "LE PERSONE PRIMA DI TUTTO" E "LA PREVENZIONE DELLE EPIDEMIE PRIMA DI TUTTO" NON SONO LA MEDESIMA COSA - PARTE 1 ⚠️
🦠 Dallo scoppio dell'Epidemia da COVID-19 sono trascorsi quasi tre anni, e quasi tutti i paesi del mondo sono stati colpiti.
🇺🇸 Al primo posto per Numero di Casi COVID-19 e Numero di Morti ci sono gli USA: 100.863.106 casi totali | 1.106.860 morti 📊
🌸 L'Obiettivo del Collettivo Shaoshan è fornire notizie ed analisi per la comprensione della realtà della Cina e del suo modo di pensare attraverso fonti primarie, non per fornire una "visione occidentale" degli eventi, pertanto il prossimo documento farà luce sul perché non si può pensare che in Cina si possa "tornare agli affari come al solito" ⬇️
📄 Con il prolungarsi del Periodo di Prevenzione e Controllo - scrive 浙江宣传, Ufficio del Dipartimento della Propaganda dello Zhejiang - la resistenza, nonché la tolleranza - anche psicologica - di molte persone è stata messa a dura prova. [...] Recentemente, in nome della Prevenzione, in alcune aree sono state implementare misure arbitrarie che hanno imbarazzato le masse, provocando deformazioni delle normali "20 Misure per la Prevenzione e il Controllo", trascurando la vita e la sicurezza delle masse, rovinando l'immagine del Partito, del Governo e ferendo il cuore delle persone" 💔
📑 "Prevenzione e Controllo delle epidemie - si legge nel comunicato del 浙江宣传 - servono a prevenire i virus, non la vita delle persone - è "prima le persone", non "prevenzione delle epidemie prima di tutto", in quanto - indipendentemente dal tipo di misure adottate, esse dovrebbero consentire alla società di tornare alla normalità il prima possibile" ☀️
⚽️ "In questo periodo si tiene la Coppa del Mondo in Qatar, e molti notano l'assenza di mascherine, tanto che qualcuno ha chiesto: "molti paesi nel mondo ora stanno facendo affari come al solito ["business as usual"], loro possono "lasciarsi andare", perché noi non possiamo?"
📊 Ad oggi, ci sono 636 milioni di casi COVID-19 confermati, e oltre 6,6 milioni di morti. Nell'ultimo giorno [dalla pubblicazione del documento] ci sono stati 230.000 nuovi casi e 428 decessi. Tra questi, il Giappone ha una popolazione di 126 milioni di persone, con un aumento giornaliero confermato dei casi pari a 98.000 unità, e la Corea del Sud - che ha una popolazione che conta oltre 50 milioni di persone, presenta un aumento giornaliero di 47.000 casi.
📊 Osservando le risorse mediche, la Cina nel 2022 ha 6,7 posti letto medici per 1.000 abitanti, mentre nel 2020 la Corea del Sud ne aveva 12,65, il Giappone 12,63, la Germania 7,82.
📊 Nel 2020, la Cina aveva 4,5 letti per terapia intensiva per 100.000 persone, la Germania 28,2, la Francia 16,4 e il Giappone 13,8, con una media globale pari a 10.
📊 Alla fine del 2021, la popolazione della Cina di età ≥ 60 anni era pari a 267 milioni di unità, mentre quella dei bambini ha superato i 250 milioni, presentando la situazione "un anziano, un giovane" 🇨🇳
🇸🇬 Secondo gli ultimi dati di Singapore, i tassi di mortalità per infezione degli anziani di età compresa tra 60-69, 70-79 e 80+ con protezione vaccinale sono rispettivamente dello 0,014%, 0,064% e 0,54% - i tassi di mortalità per infezione degli anziani nelle tre fasce di età senza protezione vaccinale sono rispettivamente dello 0,19%, 0,29%, 2,5% 📊
🇨🇳 In Cina, ci sono - per le tre fasce d'età trattate - 22,64 milioni, 16,16 milioni e 14 milioni di anziani che non hanno effettuato la vaccinazione (in Cina non c'è obbligo di vaccinazione) 💉
📄 "Liberalizzando" completamente, "lasciandosi andare", e basandosi sulle stime del tasso di mortalità per infezione, il bilancio delle vittime degli anziani di età ≥ 60 anni raggiungerebbe i 600.000 decessi, un numero esageratamente alto (❗️)
⚠️ "LE PERSONE PRIMA DI TUTTO" E "LA PREVENZIONE DELLE EPIDEMIE PRIMA DI TUTTO" NON SONO LA MEDESIMA COSA - PARTE 2 ⚠️
🇨🇳 Sebbene il numero dei morti - a livello statistico - sia "freddo", alla fine ricade sulle famiglie. Come scritto nel documento di 浙江宣传: "possiamo accettare la realtà della morte dei nostri cari? Assolutamente no, è inaccettabile. Il Sistema Sociale, la nostra Cultura Storica, i nostri valori e la nostra etica non ci permettono di guardare i nostri genitori, nonni e figli affrontare una minaccia di morte senza fare nulla e arrendersi" 🌺
🇺🇸|🇪🇺 "In alcuni paesi dell'Occidente, centinaia di persone sono morte a causa dell'epidemia in una casa di riposo o addirittura nelle loro case, senza visite a domicilio dei medici (❗️), se questo accadesse in Cina, sarebbe inaccettabile, pertanto vanno compresi gli sforzi per controllare l'epidemia" 🏥
📊 Secondo The Lancet, durante la Pandemia di COVID-19, il Tasso di Mortalità in Eccesso Globale è stato stimato a 18,2 milioni, ovvero 120,3 per 100.000 persone, e negli USA è stato di 179,3 per 100.000 persone [perciò più alto del livello globale], mentre in Cina il Tasso di Mortalità in Eccesso è solo dello 0,6 per 100.000 persone [molto, molto più basso del livello globale, ergo è stato svolto un eccellente lavoro] 📉
🇺🇸|🇪🇺 Lo stile del "tornare ai propri affari come al solito", il "business as usual" dei paesi occidentali si basa in realtà sulla perdita di vite umane (❗️) e sulla disgregazione delle famiglie (❗️) - QUANTI LO HANNO DIMENTICATO?
📊 Dati mostrano che il numero di decessi in Europa per la nuova epidemia di COVID-19 ha superato i 2 milioni, e gli USA 1,08 milioni, il paese con più decessi da COVID-19 al mondo 🇺🇸
❗️Invidiare la "libertà" dei paesi occidentali, ma ignorare il doloroso prezzo che hanno pagato è oblio selettivo.
🌊 "Se paragoniamo l'epidemia ad un fiume turbolento, per raggiungere l'altra sponda, alcuni paesi scelgono di entrare in acqua nudi, la "sopravvivenza del più adatto" e l'acquiescenza verso un gran numero di vittime, mentre la Cina sceglie di aiutarsi a vicenda e superare insieme le difficoltà, utilizzando il possibile una Grande Nave per dare a ognuno la possibilità di sopravvivere", come testimoniato dall'enorme numero di volontari.
🏙 Ad esempio, a Chongqing, oltre 600.000 volontari, dai quadri del Partito ai residenti, hanno offerto aiuto per far fronte all'ultima recrudescenza dell'epidemia 💞
🛳 "Quando la Grande Nave fa fatica e si avvicina gradualmente alla sponda opposta, se invidi ciecamente quei bagnanti che sono già sbarcati e hanno attraversato il fiume a nuoto [e molti sono annegati] invece di fare sforzi concertati per remare, allora gli sforzi precedenti saranno stati vani" 😔
🇨🇳 Il percorso che la Cina ha scelto per combattere l'epidemia è stato, fin dall'inizio, diverso da quella dei paesi occidentali, questo deve essere molto chiaro.
💭 La logica è stata ed è: "以人为本" - "Orientata alle Persone", "实事求是" - "Cercare la Verità dai Fatti" e "适应当前条件" - "Adattarsi alle condizioni attuali" 🇨🇳
⭐️ Tra la fine del 2019 e l'inizio del 2020, l'epidemia da COVID-19 è stata feroce in tutto il mondo, e le autorità hanno preso decisioni drastiche per frenare - in un breve periodo di tempo - la diffusione del virus 🦠
📊 Poiché successivamente il numero di casi locali è - progressivamente - sceso ad una cifra, le autorità hanno valutato la situazione, coordinato la prevenzione e il controllo dell'epidemia con lo sviluppo economico e sociale, promuovendo la ripresa del lavoro e della produzione in modo ordinato, diventando l'unico paese al mondo a raggiungere una crescita economica positiva in un periodo in cui tutte le grandi economie erano in negativo (❗️) - 📄 Fonte in fondo
⚠️ "LE PERSONE PRIMA DI TUTTO" E "LA PREVENZIONE DELLE EPIDEMIE PRIMA DI TUTTO" NON SONO LA MEDESIMA COSA - PARTE 3 ⚠️
🏛 Oggi, di fronte al graduale indebolimento della pericolosità del virus e ai cambiamenti nelle caratteristiche di trasmissione, le autorità promuovono la "Compensazione Dinamica" e pongono una maggiore enfasi sulla precisione scientifica dei Piani di Prevenzione e Controllo, introducendo 20 Misure per ottimizzare la Prevenzione e il Controllo.
🏥 Cos'è la "Compensazione Dinamica"? - "La politica di Compensazione Dinamica significa sopprimere un focolaio ogni volta che si verifica e farlo in un lasso di tempo relativamente breve in modo che non porti alla diffusione del virus nella comunità" - 📄 Fonte in fondo
📊 Nel 2021, il PIL della Cina è cresciuto dell'8,1%, e il Tasso di Crescita Medio nel 2020 e 2021 è stato del 5,1%, rendendola la miglior economia nel periodo COVID-19.
❗️"Recentemente, nel processo di attuazione della "Compensazione Dinamica" in alcuni luoghi, a causa di problemi di comprensione, capacità e metodi, le politiche di prevenzione e controllo sono state deformate"
🏙 "Alcuni luoghi hanno interpretazioni diverse della politica di "Compensazione Dinamica" e delle "20 Misure", e hanno lavorato senza rispettare l'autorità del Governo Centrale (❗️). Agli occhi di certe persone, Prevenzione e Controllo sono metodi per gestire i propri "piccoli stagni", piuttosto che gestire congiuntamente il "grande fiume che scorre" - non ragionano secondo il Principio del "Io sono responsabile del flusso del fiume, tu sei responsabile della gestione" 🌊
💥"In alcune zone, l'aver "premuto l'acceleratore" o aver effettuati repentini "cambi di marcia e poi stallo" ha danneggiato gravemente il desiderio delle masse di stabilità - in alcuni luoghi o c'è una chiusura o tutto è lasciato andare, non c'è stata "combinazione organizzata" e volontà di ottimizzare scientificamente il processo di prevenzione e controllo"
📄 "Prima la prevenzione delle epidemie" in alcuni luoghi ha sostituito "prima le persone" - e la vita delle persone, nonché l'economia - è stata sottovalutata, dando - tra l'altro - troppa importanza al COVID-19 e al COVID-19 soltanto, distorcendo il Principio "生命至上" - "la vita prima di ogni altra cosa / prima la vita" 🌱
❗️Alcuni funzionari hanno "intensificato" la prevenzione, non hanno osservato le Leggi e le "20 Misure", e hanno negativamente affrontato le masse, cosa che ha gelato il cuore delle persone 😔
📄 L'esistenza di questi problemi non può essere ignorata, ma non è realistico attribuirla ogni volta alla politica di "Compensazione Dinamica", e l'attuale Piano di Prevenzione e Controllo è simile ad un "Equilibrio di Interessi" - costruito secondo la seguente logica:
💭 "Prendere atto del sostentamenteo delle persone e dei valori economici, realizzare una "Soluzione Ottimizzata" in un Equilibrio Multi-Obiettivo, aderire alla Politica Generale di "Compensazione Dinamica", concentrarsi su obiettivi graduali, evidenziare la precisione scientifica e garantire che le politiche non siano fuori fase o deformate" 🔬
⭐️ "Tale processo metterà alla prova le capacità di governance dei Comitato di Partito e di Governo ad ogni livello, nonché la Saggezza e la Responsabilità dei quadri del Partito" 🇨🇳
📄 "Tuttavia, non si possono negare completamente le politiche di Prevenzione e Controllo soltanto perché in alcune aree sono state rilevate deviazioni dall'attuazione delle corrette Politiche di Prevenzione e Controllo, in quanto sarebbe irragionevole, cieco di fronte alla Grande Logica e vedente di fronte alla Piccola Logica del Momento" - ma questo certi "liberi pensatori" e lupi anti-sistema tornati pecorelle quando si tratta della Cina non lo capiranno mai.
🗄 "In risposta alla mancanza di capacità e stile di lavoro dei singoli addetti alla Prevenzione, è necessario segnalarli e sollecitarli ad apportare correzioni, ma non si può generalizzare il tutto e pensare che TUTTO il personale di Prevenzione sia incompetente e distaccato dalle masse" 🇨🇳
⚠️ "LE PERSONE PRIMA DI TUTTO" E "LA PREVENZIONE DELLE EPIDEMIE PRIMA DI TUTTO" NON SONO LA MEDESIMA COSA - PARTE 4 ⚠️
📄 "Uscire dalla nebbia dell'Epidemia COVID-19 non è un qualcosa che si può risolvere dicendo "lascia perdere", "non te ne curare", "tanto ormai c'è", in quanto tali discussioni - presenti in Occidente (❗️) - non risolveranno automaticamente i problemi. Nascondere la polvere sotto il tappeto non funziona sul lungo periodo, ma certi "liberi pensatori" in Occidente non lo capiranno mai.
🔬"Analizzare scientemente le condizioni attuali, e su di esse costruire un lavoro di miglioramento delle capacità di affrontare i problemi, sforzandosi di gestire il tutto correttamente, queste sono le basi per cui dovremmo lottare" 🧬
🦠 "Perché il virus non può "essere lasciato andare" immediatamente, dato che il Tasso di Letalità è basso? Bisogna prendere la vaccinazione come esempio: in Cina, la vaccinazione non è obbligatoria, e il Tasso di Vaccinazione di Richiamo degli anziani con età ≥ 80 è del 40%, e il livello di immunità generale dell'intera popolazione non è elevato" 📊
💬 "In questo momento, invece di rimanere impigliati nei discorsi sul "rilascio", o anche sulla "chiusura", è meglio aumentare il nostro livello di vaccinazione, migliorare la produzione di medicinali, costruire più letti di terapia intensiva e rafforzare i servizi di consegna di domicilio delle persone, per non lasciarle sole", come invece è accaduto in Occidente (❗️), con la privatizzazione del sistema sanitario dei paesi europei.
📄 "È necessario unificare gli standard del Codice Sanitario in tutto il Paese il prima possibile, collegare i risultati dei nuovi test in tutto il Paese, promuovere l'esperienza della Prevenzione e Controllo intelligente in più luoghi per far fluire più dati da analizzare al meglio, e minimizzare gli effetti del virus e i problemi delle persone" 📉
📄 "Alcuni membri del Partito sono deboli nella loro capacità di svolgere un lavoro sotto i riflettori: o evitano ciecamente e schivano le preoccupazioni delle masse, o parlano molto durante le conferenze stampa, ma i risultati non riflettono ciò che le masse vorrebbero ascoltare" - come si può vedere, c'è un forte spirito di auto-critica, legate alla campagna interna al Partito ( 三严三实), ovvero "Tre dichiarazioni di Onestà, Tre dichiarazioni di Severità" 📑
🔊 "È necessario esporre coloro che rifuggono alle proprie responsabilità, espellerli e promuovere coloro che sono in grado di parlare in maniera chiara e accurata - "站出来,给不确定的人更多的确定,让权威专业的声音说话" 🇨🇳
📄 "C'è solo uno scopo nella lotta contro l'epidemia, ed è quello di avvantaggiare le persone e proteggere la sicurezza di tutti. Con lo sviluppo dell'epidemia fino ad oggi, ogni aggiustamento del Piano di Prevenzione e Controllo rappresenta un passo in avanti verso il successo. [...] Per noi, la "Prevenzione e Controllo" è come navigare su una Grande Nave che trasporta 1,4 miliardi di persone all'altra sponda: navigare, rallentare, fermarsi, virare - questo è il motivo per cui il Piano di Prevenzione e Controllo è stato iterato dalla Prima alla Nona - e attuale - Edizione, e le nuove edizioni saranno sempre più accurate" 🛳

🇨🇳 The authorities of numerous cities, especially the larger and more populated ones, have optimized the Prevention and Control Measures by following and refining the Directives of the Ninth Edition of the Prevention and Control Plan, as well as the 20 Measures to Optimize Prevention, which include :
📄 Elimination of the obligation of frequent Molecular Tests, which until now were FREE.
📄 Elimination of the obligation to provide the results of Molecular Tests for the use of public transport.
🌃 In Shanghai, the Government announced that it will eliminate the need for a negative Molecular Test result for public transport and outdoor venues - 📄 Source at the bottom
🌆 In Shenzhen, the Government issued a statement confirming that residents will no longer need to provide a Molecular Test Certificate when entering public places such as pharmacies and attractions, as well as it will no longer be mandatory for public transport, while it will remain mandatory in airports and railway stations, where hundreds of thousands of people circulate every day - 📄 Source at the bottom
🏙 In Ürümqi, the authorities - who met the demonstrators during legitimate protests, not like the US and UK-directed ones in Shanghai - are stepping up their efforts to promote the full recovery of production, work and commercial activities, and will even reopen the ski resorts of the city - 📄 Source.
🏛 Easing measures have also been introduced in Beijing, such as the elimination of the obligation to present the result of the Molecular Test on buses and subways, which are also frequented by millions of citizens every day - 📄 Source.
🌇 Numerous restrictions have also been lifted in Guangzhou and Chengdu, eliminating the obligation to present a negative Molecular Test result to take buses and subways - 📄 Source.
🏙 Restrictions have also been lifted in Chongqing, and the authorities have invited residents to carry out Molecular Tests only when strictly necessary, and - moreover - the local authorities have stopped providing free Molecular Tests starting from Sunday, according to the principle "every person is individually responsible for his own health" - 📄 Source.
📊 A Molecular Test will cost 2.6 Yuan, or €0.35 per person for a combined sample, and 13 Yuan, or €1.77, for Individual Tests.
🏭 In Guangzhou, as of Saturday, nearly 7,700 key enterprises, 18,000 catering units and 219,000 wholesale and retail enterprises and 122 industrial plants in Tianhe District have fully resumed work and production, said Huang Kaixuan, Deputy -Chief Executive of the District.
🏨 The Beijing Health Commission has urged residents to fulfill their duty in preventing COVID-19 and to "be primarily responsible for their own health"
🧾 These measures - which certainly lighten the burden on Community Management, put to the test, as in other countries of the world, in the three years of COVID-19 - must not be seen as a "sudden opening" or an "easing full of COVID-19 restrictions", but as a response from the authorities to developments in the situation.
📄 On this issue, why you can't "let go" or "continue to do business as usual" regarding the COVID-19 measures, there will be separate posts, to better deal with the issue.
🩻 Wang Guangfa - Pneumology expert at the First Hospital of Beijing University - said that these adjustments should not be seen with a view to complete opening, but as an optimization of prevention and control measures in line with the characteristics of the variant of the virus, which allows the achievement of a new balance between epidemic control and economic-social measures.
⚠️ RELEASE OF PREVENTION AND CONTROL MEASURES, PART 2 - FROM VIRUS PREVENTION TO PREVENTION OF SERIOUS CASES AND DEATHS | PATHOGENICITY AND VIRULENCE ⚠️
📄 The previous post quoted Wang Guangfa - Pneumology expert at the First Hospital of Beijing University - who said that the new adjustments should not be seen as a complete opening, but as an optimization of prevention and control measures in line with the characteristics of the variant of the virus, and this will be the topic of the post.
🦠 To contain a highly contagious but weaker virulence virus, the cost of Epidemic Control Measures is much higher than that of the previous measures in dealing with less contagious but higher virulence strains such as the DELTA Variant, which makes current adjustments necessary, but "we are unlikely to emerge from the pandemic any time soon this winter, as many countries are facing similar resurgences," said Wang Guangfa.
🔬A Chinese Research Team has shown that the pathogenicity of OMICRON is decreased compared to the original Coronavirus Strain and its other Variants 📉
🏨 Pathogenicity and Virulence of COVID-19 Variants are the key issues on which Chinese scientists have focused, and the drastic decrease in the pathogenicity of OMICRON has been scientifically demonstrated at the Wuhan University Virology Laboratory 📉
🔬For those interested in the process and the experiment that led to the demonstration, you can read here 📄
💬 Lan Ke, Director of the Laboratory, said that the obtained results demonstrate that compared to the Original Strain, OMICRON has a weaker ability to cause disease combined with lower virulence - and therefore one should not panic about OMICRON, as many the damage it causes is considerably less than the Original Strain 📉
🧾 Earlier, a Research Paper published by scientists from Hong Kong University and Hainan Medical University in January 2022 showed that OMICRON replication substantially attenuated in human Calu3 and CaCO2 cells, and that OMICRON - compared to BETA and DELTA - causes the lowest mortality rate 📉
📑 The Process of Opening and Exiting the COVID-19 Pandemic should go step by step and not take sharp turns, as Chen Xi - Assistant Professor of Public Health at Yale University said, and the new focus will be preparation and use of more medical resources for severe cases, since the virulence of OMICRON is lower than the previous variants.
📊 As in Hong Kong, also in other areas of China the priority is which one to complete the vaccination process - which is not mandatory in China - of over-80 year olds, and then between 60-69 and 70-79, as groups high risk 🏥
💬 "To emerge from the Epidemic, it is crucial to build immunity among vulnerable groups and future work will not focus on eliminating the virus completely through Testing, but should focus on keeping the virulence of the virus at a very low level" said Zhang Wenhong, an epidemiologist in Shanghai.
💬 "We are now shifting our strategy from preventing the virus to preventing severe cases and deaths, so we need to focus more on the key vulnerable population," said Wang Guangfa.
⚠️ "PEOPLE FIRST" AND "EPIDEMIC PREVENTION FIRST" ARE NOT THE SAME - PART 1 ⚠️
🦠 Almost three years have passed since the outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic, and almost all countries in the world have been affected.
🇺🇸 In first place for Number of COVID-19 Cases and Number of Deaths are the USA: 100,863,106 total cases | 1,106,860 dead 📊
🌸 The Goal of the Shaoshan Collective is to provide news and analysis for understanding the reality of China and its way of thinking through primary sources, not to provide a "Western view" of events, therefore the next document will shed light on why not may think that China can "go back to business as usual" ⬇️
📄 With the extension of the Prevention and Control Period - writes 浙江宣传, Zhejiang Propaganda Department Office - the resistance, as well as tolerance - even psychological - of many people has been put to the test. [...] Recently, in the name of Prevention, arbitrary measures have been implemented in some areas that have embarrassed the masses, causing distortion of the normal "20 Measures for Prevention and Control", neglecting the lives and safety of the masses, ruining the image of the Party, the Government and hurting people's hearts" 💔
📑 "Epidemic Prevention and Control - reads the press release of 浙江宣传 - serve to prevent viruses, not people's lives - it is "people first", not "epidemic prevention first", because - regardless of the type of measures taken, they should allow society to return to normal as soon as possible" ☀️
⚽️ "The World Cup is held in Qatar right now, and many notice the absence of masks, so much so that someone asked: "many countries in the world are now doing business as usual ["business as usual"], they they can "let go", why can't we?"
📊 To date, there are 636 million confirmed COVID-19 cases, and over 6.6 million deaths. In the last day [since the publication of the document] there have been 230,000 new cases and 428 deaths. Among them, Japan has a population of 126 million, with a confirmed daily increase of cases of 98,000, and South Korea - which has a population of over 50 million, has a daily increase of 47,000. cases.
📊 Looking at medical resources, China in 2022 had 6.7 medical beds per 1,000 inhabitants, while in 2020 South Korea had 12.65, Japan 12.63, Germany 7.82.
📊 In 2020, China had 4.5 ICU beds per 100,000 people, Germany 28.2, France 16.4 and Japan 13.8, for a global average of 10.
📊 At the end of 2021, China's population aged ≥ 60 was 267 million, while that of children exceeded 250 million, presenting the "one old, one young" situation 🇨🇳
🇸🇬 According to the latest data from Singapore, the infection fatality rates of elderly aged 60-69, 70-79 and 80+ with vaccine protection are 0.014%, 0.064% and 0.54% respectively - the rates of mortality due to infection of the elderly in the three age groups without vaccination protection are respectively 0.19%, 0.29%, 2.5% 📊
🇨🇳 In China, there are - for the three age groups treated - 22.64 million, 16.16 million and 14 million elderly people who have not been vaccinated (in China there is no vaccination obligation) 💉
📄 Completely "liberating", "letting go", and based on estimates of the death rate from infection, the death toll of the elderly aged ≥ 60 would reach 600,000 deaths, a disproportionately high number (❗️)
⚠️ "PEOPLE FIRST" AND "EPIDEMIC PREVENTION FIRST" ARE NOT THE SAME - PART 2 ⚠️
🇨🇳 Although the number of deaths - statistically - is "cold", in the end it falls on the families. As written in 浙江宣传's document: "Can we accept the reality of the death of our loved ones? Absolutely not, it is unacceptable. The Social System, our Historical Culture, our values ​​and our ethics do not allow us to look at our parents, grandparents and children face a death threat without doing anything and surrender" 🌺
🇺🇸|🇪🇺 "In some Western countries, hundreds of people died from the epidemic in a nursing home or even in their own homes, without home visits by doctors (❗️), if this happened in China, would be unacceptable, therefore efforts to control the epidemic should be understood" 🏥
📊 According to The Lancet, during the COVID-19 Pandemic, the Global Excess Mortality Rate was estimated at 18.2 million, or 120.3 per 100,000 people, and in the US it was 179.3 per 100,000 people [ therefore higher than the global level], while in China the Excess Mortality Rate is only 0.6 per 100,000 people [much, much lower than the global level, ergo an excellent job has been done] 📉
🇺🇸|🇪🇺 The "go back to business as usual" style, the "business as usual" of Western countries is actually based on the loss of human lives (❗️) and the breakup of families (❗️) - HOW MANY LO THEY FORGOT?
📊 Data shows that the number of deaths in Europe from the new COVID-19 epidemic has exceeded 2 million, and the USA has exceeded 1.08 million, the country with the most COVID-19 deaths in the world 🇺🇸
❗️ Envying the "freedom" of Western countries, but ignoring the painful price they have paid is selective oblivion.
🌊 "If we compare the epidemic to a turbulent river, to reach the other side, some countries choose to enter the water naked, the "survival of the fittest" and acquiescence towards a large number of victims, while China chooses to help each other and overcome difficulties together, using a Big Ship as much as possible to give everyone the chance to survive", as witnessed by the enormous number of volunteers.
🏙 For example, in Chongqing, more than 600,000 volunteers, from Party cadres to residents, have offered help to deal with the latest outbreak of the epidemic 💞
🛳 "When the Great Ship struggles and gradually approaches the opposite shore, if you blindly envy those bathers who have already landed and swum across the river [and many have drowned] instead of making concerted efforts to row, then the previous efforts they will have been in vain" 😔
🇨🇳 The path that China has chosen to fight the epidemic has, from the very beginning, been different from that of Western countries, this must be very clear.
💭 The logic was and is: "以人为本" - "People Oriented", "实事求是" - "Seeking Truth from Facts" and "适应当前条件" - "Adapting to Current Conditions" 🇨🇳
⭐️ Between the end of 2019 and the beginning of 2020, the COVID-19 epidemic was fierce all over the world, and the authorities took drastic decisions to curb - in a short period of time - the spread of the virus 🦠
📊 Since the number of local cases subsequently - progressively - dropped to single digits, the authorities assessed the situation, coordinated the prevention and control of the epidemic with economic and social development, promoting the resumption of work and production in a orderly, becoming the only country in the world to achieve positive economic growth at a time when all major economies were negative (❗️) - 📄 Source at the bottom
⚠️ "PEOPLE FIRST" AND "EPIDEMIC PREVENTION FIRST" ARE NOT THE SAME - PART 3 ⚠️
🏛 Today, faced with the gradual weakening of the danger of the virus and the changes in the transmission characteristics, the authorities are promoting the "Dynamic Compensation" and placing greater emphasis on the scientific precision of the Prevention and Control Plans, introducing 20 Measures to optimize Prevention and the Control.
🏥 What is "Dynamic Compensation"? - "The Dynamic Compensation policy means suppressing an outbreak whenever it occurs and doing it in a relatively short amount of time so that it does not lead to the spread of the virus in the community" - 📄 Source at the bottom
📊 In 2021, China's GDP grew by 8.1%, and the Average Growth Rate in 2020 and 2021 was 5.1%, making it the best economy during the COVID-19 period.
❗️"Recently, in the process of implementing the "Dynamic Compensation" in some places, due to problems of understanding, capabilities and methods, prevention and control policies have been deformed"
🏙 "Some places have different interpretations of the "Dynamic Compensation" policy and the "20 Measures", and have worked without respecting the authority of the Central Government (❗️). In the eyes of some people, Prevention and Control are methods of managing own "small ponds", rather than jointly manage the "big flowing river" - they do not reason according to the Principle of "I am responsible for the flow of the river, you are responsible for the management" 🌊
💥"In some areas, having 'hit the accelerator' or making sudden 'shifts and then stalls' has severely damaged the masses' desire for stability - in some places either there is a closure or everything is left go, there was no "organized combination" and no will to scientifically optimize the prevention and control process"
📄 "Epidemic prevention first" in some places has replaced "people first" - and people's lives as well as the economy - has been undervalued, giving - among other things - too much importance to COVID-19 and COVID -19 only, distorting the Principle "生命至上" - "life before everything else / life first" 🌱
❗️Some officials "intensified" prevention, did not observe the Laws and "20 Measures", and negatively faced the masses, which froze people's hearts 😔
📄 The existence of these problems cannot be ignored, but it is unrealistic to attribute it every time to the "Dynamic Compensation" policy, and the current Prevention and Control Plan is similar to a "Balance of Interests" - built according to the following logic
💭 "Recognize people's sustainment and economic values, realize an "Optimized Solution" in a Multi-Objective Equilibrium, adhere to the General Policy of "Dynamic Compensation", focus on gradual objectives, highlight scientific accuracy, and ensure that policies are not out of phase or deformed" 🔬
⭐️ "This process will test the governance skills of the Party and Government Committees at all levels, as well as the Wisdom and Responsibility of the Party cadres" 🇨🇳
📄 "However, the Prevention and Control policies cannot be completely denied just because deviations from the implementation of the correct Prevention and Control Policies have been detected in some areas, as it would be unreasonable, blind to Grand Logic and sighted in front of to the Little Logic of the Moment" - but this certain "free thinkers" and anti-system wolves turned sheep when it comes to China will never understand.
🗄 "In response to the lack of skills and working style of individual Prevention staff, it is necessary to report them and urge them to make corrections, but you cannot generalize everything and think that ALL Prevention staff are incompetent and detached from the masses" 🇨 🇳
⚠️ "PEOPLE FIRST" AND "EPIDEMIC PREVENTION FIRST" ARE NOT THE SAME - PART 4 ​​⚠️
📄 "Getting out of the fog of the COVID-19 epidemic is not something that can be solved by saying "forget it", "don't worry about it", "it's already there", as such discussions - present in the West (❗️ ) - they won't automatically solve problems.Sweeping the dust under the rug doesn't work in the long run, but some "freethinkers" in the West will never figure it out.
🔬 "Conscientiously analyzing the current conditions, and building on them a work to improve the ability to deal with problems, striving to manage everything correctly, these are the foundations for which we should fight" 🧬
🦠 "Why can't the virus "be let go" immediately, since the fatality rate is low? We need to take vaccination as an example: in China, vaccination is not mandatory, and the recall vaccination rate of the aged ≥ 80 is 40%, and the general immunity level of the whole population is not high" 📊
💬 "Right now, instead of getting caught up in the talk of "release", or even "closure", it is better to increase our level of vaccination, improve the production of medicines, build more intensive care beds and strengthen the services of home delivery of people, so as not to leave them alone", as happened in the West instead (❗️), with the privatization of the healthcare system of European countries.
📄 "It is necessary to unify the standards of the Health Code across the country as soon as possible, connect the results of new tests across the country, promote the experience of Smart Prevention and Control in more places to let more data flow to better analyze , and minimize the effects of the virus and people's problems" 📉
📄 "Some Party members are weak in their ability to do work in the spotlight. They either blindly avoid and dodge the concerns of the masses, or they talk a lot at press conferences, but the results do not reflect what the masses would like to hear" - as you can see, there is a strong spirit of self-criticism, related to the internal Party campaign (三严三实), namely "Three Statements of Honesty, Three Statements of Severity" 📑
🔊 "It is necessary to expose those who shy away from their responsibilities, expel them and promote those who are able to speak clearly and accurately - "站出来,给不确定的人更多的确定,让权威专业的声音说话" 🇨 🇳
📄 "There is only one purpose in the fight against the epidemic, and that is to benefit people and protect everyone's safety. With the development of the epidemic to date, every adjustment of the Prevention and Control Plan represents a step forward to success [...] For us, "Prevention and Control" is like sailing on a Big Ship carrying 1.4 billion people to the other side: sail, slow down, stop, tack - that's why the Prevention and Control Plan has been iterated from the First to the Ninth - and current - Edition, and the new editions will be more and more accurate" 🛳

Rare unrest in Chinese city of Guangzhou as people protest over Covid restrictions, November 19, 2022
This video was originally published on 15 November and amended to remove a clip showing protesters overturning a police car, which was taken elsewhere in Guangdong in 2017. 
Protesters poured out onto the streets of the southern Chinese city of Guangzhou in a rare demonstration against strict Covid-19 restrictions.
Video circulating on social media showed crowds of people marching through the Haizhu district, breaking Covid barriers in noisy scenes. Cases have also been rising in other large Chinese cities, including Beijing, Chongqing and Zhengzhou. China still operates a policy of strict lockdowns and quarantines even after small outbreaks, which it says are necessary for public safety.

Labour said that a fresh Partygate revelation on Sunday implied that Boris Johnson instigated one of the No 10 parties that he has denied attending.
The deputy Labour leader, Angela Rayner, spoke out after the Sunday Times reported that a gathering that took place in Downing Street on Friday 13 November 2020 took on the nature of a leaving party only after Johnson arrived and started pouring drinks.
She said: “While the British public was making huge sacrifices, Boris Johnson was breaking the law.
“If the latest reports are true, it would mean that not only did the prime minister attend parties, but he had a hand in instigating at least one of them. He has deliberately misled the British people at every turn.
“The prime minister has demeaned his office. The British people deserve better. While Labour has a plan for tackling the cost of living crisis, Tory MPs are too busy defending the indefensible actions of Boris Johnson.”
The revelation will intensify demands for a Commons debate this week about whether Johnson lied to parliament when he told MPs repeatedly that parties did not take place at No 10 and that Covid rules were followed at all time.
The opposition parties have been discussing how best they could force a vote on this, and one possibility is tabling a motion saying Johnson has been in contempt of parliament.  ...

When the Experts Failed During COVID-19
Experts hate to be wrong. When I first started writing about the public’s hostility toward expertise and established knowledge more than a decade ago, I predicted that any number of crises—including a pandemic—might be the moment that snaps the public back to its senses. I was wrong. I didn’t foresee how some citizens and their leaders would respond to the cycle of advances and setbacks in the…

Good morning!  I hope you slept well and feel rested?  Currently sitting at my desk, in my study, attired only in my blue towelling robe, enjoying my first cuppa of the day.
Welcome to Throwback Thursday.  On this page, Throwback Thursday is about memories triggered by words.  So, if I was to say the word EDUCATION, what memory immediately come to mind?
I was a woeful student.  Struggled to concentrate.  I got one ‘A’ level, I think.  I can’t remember, it’s so bloody long ago!  I don’t have a degree because I didn’t go to university.  I don’t have any formal teaching training.  In short, I am a dunce.  An uneducated pleb.  Formal education missed me.
I was too busy with my nose in Black Echoes, Blues & Soul, Black Music & Jazz Review, Melody Maker, Sounds and New Musical Express.  Not really academic writing and the subjects weren’t always interesting (never meet your heroes) but, with every, grubby page I was absorbing information like a sponge.
So, the day I joined Black Echoes (1981), I knew about artists, studios, producers, guitarists, re-mixers, songwriters etc. and I was able to interview anyone about their life.  I was a nerd!  In a way, my own mad, self-taught education has got me most of my important jobs.
Prepping and teaching involves research and I love it.  I really enjoy acquiring and sharing knowledge.  Who’d a thunk it?  I appreciate education now.  The other day, I did an online course on Equality, Diversity & Inclusion, I did a 20-question multiple-choice test and I got 100%.  That felt good!  Education has come to me late in life.
So, on this Throwback Thursday, what memory does the word EDUCATION bring back?
Yesterday, as you know, there was quite persistent, cold rain.  Did the white boy still go out in his shorts?  Of course, he did!  Everyone in Harlesden just looked at me like I was mad.  (Not wrong, are they?)  I had to go to Blue Mountain to pick up some Noni Juice (Google it!) for The Trouble.  Much better for her than all that pharmaceutical poison!
Have a throbbing and thrusting Thursday (with hopefully a few thrills through your thoroughfare?)  I love you all.

The shaoshan collective sets on the mission of clearing up some confusion about the recent modifications to the zero covid policy in china
The post is machine translated
The translation is at the bottom
The collective is on telegram
⚠️ ALLENTAMENTO DELLE MISURE DI PREVENZIONE E CONTROLLO, PARTE 1 - ELIMINAZIONE DI CERTI OBBLIGHI ⚠️
🇨🇳 Le Autorità di numerose città, soprattutto quelle più grandi e più popolate, hanno ottimizzato le Misure di Controllo e Prevenzione seguendo e perfezionando le Direttive della Nona Edizione del Piano di Prevenzione e Controllo, nonché le 20 Misure per Ottimizzare la Prevenzione, che includono:
📄 Eliminazione dell'obbligo di frequenti Test Molecolari, che finora erano GRATUITI.
📄 Eliminazione dell'obbligo di fornire i risultati dei Test Molecolari per l'utilizzo dei mezzi pubblici.
🌃 A Shanghai, il Governo ha annunciato che eliminerà la necessità di un risultato negativo al Test Molecolare per mezzi pubblici e luoghi all'aperto - 📄 Fonte.
🌆 A Shenzhen, il Governo ha rilasciato una dichiarazione di conferma che i residenti non avranno più bisogno di fornire un certificato di Test Molecolare quando entrano in luoghi pubblici come farmacie e attrazioni, così come non sarà più obbligatorio per mezzi pubblici, mentre rimarrà obbligatorio negli aeroporti e nelle stazioni ferroviarie, dove ogni giorno circolano centinaia di migliaia di persone - 📄 Fonte.
🏙 A Ürümqi, le autorità - che hanno incontrato i manifestanti durante proteste legittime, non come quelle eterodirette da USA e UK a Shanghai - stanno intensificando gli sforzi per promuovere la piena ripresa delle attività produttive, lavorative e commerciali, e riapriranno persino gli impianti sciistici della città - 📄 Fonte.
🏛 Anche a Pechino sono state introdotte misure di allentamento, come l'eliminazione dell'obbligo di presentare il risultato del Test Molecolare su autobus e metropolitane, anch'esse frequentate da milioni di cittadini ogni giorno - 📄 Fonte.
🌇 Anche a Guangzhou e Chengdu sono state revocate numerose restrizioni, eliminando l'obbligo di dover presentare un risultato negativo del Test Molecolare per prendere autobus e metropolitane
🏙 Anche a Chongqing sono state revocate le restrizioni, e le autorità hanno invitato i residenti a effettuare Test Molecolari solo quando strettamente necessario, e - inoltre - le autorità locali hanno cessato di fornire Test Molecolari gratuiti a partire da domenica, secondo il principio "ogni persona è individualmente responsabile della propria salute" - 📄 Fonte.
📊 Un Test Molecolare costerà 2,6 Yuan, ovvero 0,35€ a persone per un campione combinato, e 13 Yuan, ovvero 1,77€, per Test Individuali.
🏭 A Guangzhou, a partire da sabato quasi 7.700 imprese chiave, 18.000 unità di ristorazione e 219.000 imprese all'ingrosso e al dettaglio e 122 impianti industriali nel Distretto di Tianhe hanno ripreso completamente il lavoro e la produzione, come dichiarato da Huang Kaixuan, Vice-Capo Esecutivo del Distretto.
🏨 La Commissione per la Salute di Pechino ha esortato i residenti ad adempiere al proprio dovere nella prevenzione del COVID-19 e ad "essere loro stessi i primi responsabili della propria salute"
🧾 Tali misure - che sicuramente alleggeriscono l'onere sulla Gestione delle Comunità, messe a dura prova, come negli altri paesi del mondo, nei tre anni di COVID-19 - non devono essere viste come "un'apertura improvvisa" o un "allentamento totale delle restrizioni COVID-19", ma come una risposta delle autorità agli sviluppi della situazione.
📄 Su questo tema, sul perché non si può "lasciarsi andare" o "continuare a fare affari come sempre" per quanto riguarda le misure COVID-19, ci saranno dei post a parte, per trattare al meglio la questione.
🩻 Wang Guangfa - Esperto di Pneumologia presso il Primo Ospedale dell'Univeristà di Pechino - ha affermato che tali aggiustamenti non devono essere visti nell'ottica di una completa apertura, ma come un'ottimizzazione delle misure di prevenzione e controllo in linea con le caratteristiche della variante del virus, che permette il raggiungimento di un nuovo equilibrio tra controllo dell'epidemia e misure economico-sociali.
