Yikes. That isn’t good.

While we are talking about China, what is up with their Covid-19 cases. Is it really not an issue there, or a cover up? Did their initial lock downs manage to largely stamp it out?

It is still an issue there. They are still getting hot spots (< 10 cases?) but they will lockdown an entire city of a few million people and test every inhabitant in roughly 3–5 days.

Think of New Zealand but with a slightly bigger population and land area.

In China, plainclothes police abducted a Bloomberg News reporter

Interesting use of the term “abducted”

Are US no-knock arrests also considered “abductions”?
