Two years ago, the Covid-19 pandemic appeared in Wuhan (China). Since then, the country’s communication has remained extremely controlled, and China has implemented a zero Covid policy.
A few weeks from Olympic Games, what is the situation in China, the country where it all began? “China does not change course and maintains its zero Covid strategy, two years after the appearance of the virus“, says Arnaud Miguet, our correspondent reporter in China. Two years after the death of the first patient with Covid-19, millions of Chinese are still in confinement in several parts of the country.
As the Beijing Olympics approach, which will begin on Friday, February 4, 2022, the economy is affected, and the morale of Chinese residents is severely affected by this tense atmosphere. “There is some panic ahead of the Beijing Winter Olympics“, says Arnaud Miguet. The authorities of the capital have invited their inhabitants not to leave the city, in order to minimize the risk of contamination.
