Faced with the epidemic, China is maintaining its “zero Covid” strategy. All facilities around the Beijing Winter Olympics (China) are put in a sanitary bubble. Arnaud Miguet, journalist with France Televisions in China, takes stock of the situation.

The health bubble is in place around all the Olympic venues for the next Olympic Games in Beijing (China). “Barriers and controls keep passers-by a safe distance around the Bird’s Nest in the capital, where the opening ceremony will take place. It is the same at the foot of the Olympic slopes. Athletes, participants and 20,000 volunteers will be able to enter this bubble by being duly vaccinated “, explains Arnaud Miguet, journalist for France Télévisions in China.

There will be inside this bubble of daily checks as well as daily PCR tests. “There will be no contact with the outside world. Probably no public and especially no tourism for the participants. The visit of the Chinese president marks the beginning of this establishment of this health bubble. The opening ceremony of these Olympic Games is in less than a month “, adds the journalist from France Télévisions.
