China began dismantling its strict Covid controls this month, becoming the last major country to do so. But the loosening of measures has seen a dramatic rise in cases as citizens leave factories and apartment blocks and travel for the first time in months. The nation of 1.4 billion people officially reported fewer than 4,000 new symptomatic Covid cases nationwide on Thursday, and no new deaths but authorities recently narrowed the criteria for figures, prompting criticism from many disease experts. As many as “250 million”people in China have been infected with Covid this month according to the leaked video. Could this be true ?
