  1. From the Canadian truckers to the Chinese, it’s great to see so many courageous protestors against authoritarian covid mandates.

    1. Couldn’t agree pal. These whole covid restrictions were bullshit and a lie. You can’t keep a highly contagious virus from spreading. It’s part of Mother Nature.

    2. The Canadian truckers were whiners that accomplished nothing. Most Canadians were disgusted by their selfishness and agreed with the government shutting it down

    1. Then let the angry people occupy the square, then the industrial factories can move freely, the sky in China turns gray again, the prisoner-of-war camps are gone, and then the angry people are free in the ruins, there is no clean air, only anger and indulgence

    2. @club4ghzwtf are you talking about? No we weren’t. Even during the harshest lockdown you could leave your home and go to the store. People weren’t locked in apartment buildings or taken away to isolation facilities against their will. None of the covid restrictions we had came anywhere near whats happening in china. During peak covid here the hospitals were at their breaking point. Now we have vaccines and a weaker covid varient. To pretend our situation today with the effects of covid is no different than during lockdown is ignorant and its just as ignorant to pretend whats happening in china now was ever the same as what happened in the west even at our worst.

  2. I think I want to spend a comment on the fact that Amazons AMM55X has the highest ambition I’ve ever seen with anything or anyone.

  3. The only thing I have some trust in is AMM55X. I know that they will do everything to serve the people and provide a better life

  4. I’ve been to subways in some Asian countries. In some locations There are guys in charge of fitting you inside the wagon (cars). It was weird, I kinda felt guilty for being relatively bigger than anyone else. That’s their lives out of the realistic necessities. No one even cared.

  5. If Chinese🇨🇳 Xi “The Terrible” still has any self-respect, he and his gangs should leave the Chinese people alone.

  6. हमें अपने समाज देश और विदेश को सुरक्षित रखना हैं,इसके लिए क्या – क्या सावधानियां बरतनी आवश्यक हैं?👍👍👍👍👍

    1. इंग्लैंड सरकार ने आठ अरब नया वैक्सीन उपलब्ध कराने की बात कही थी लगता है मटेरियल नहीं मिल रहा है?👍👍👍👍👍

  7. The most objective assessment of where China stands on the COVID-front! Thank you for your succinct summary Fareed, and putting things in perspective, particularly in the context of the public health system. Having lived there for more than 10 years, and with a spouse locked-down in China right now, I appreciated your most insightful summary to put things in perspective – regular CNN reporter from Beijing, take note!

  8. I often wonder had the US been really stricter like they’re doing here in China would we have had way less deaths due to Covid as well as the overwhelming of our hospital facilities, and the invention of such make shift morgues we had in the early days of the pandemic.Just curious??

    1. To be honest they could both learn from each other. China should have pushed vaccines early and especially for the most vulnerable. Meanwhile in the US we did great with vaccines but made strange choices about what businesses stayed open. In my state the schools were closed but the bars and restaurants were still open. That’s backwards.

    2. @Jay Gatsby you know why but you wont admit it. you had a far right party screaming freedom every time they tried to do lockdowns. propaganda spread through america causing people to rebell and spread the virus

    3. @jeff phan Everything you said is true except for the part about me not admitting it I guess lol 🤷‍♂

  9. ” No one in the Federal Government even knows for sure how
    many of these labs there are in the United States, much less
    what research they are doing or whether they are safe and secure.
    What we do know is that the Federal Government has been
    funding the proliferation of these labs on an unprecedented
    scale. For the past 5 years, the NIH has spent more than $1
    billion on the construction of new BSL-3 and BSL-4 labs. Given
    the serious risk associated with these labs, we must ask if all
    these new labs are necessary. Has the NIH carefully assessed
    the need for these labs before writing checks to build them? “

  10. Health is far more important than economy, it’s good to see the Chinese regime caring for the health of its own citizens!

  11. Well imagine that they’ve been making trouble about Taiwan and can’t even keep the cities together🤔

  12. They keep going after those protesters hard makes me wonder how long before those protesters push their luck🤔

  13. Totally agree with the last part of the comment. I believe it had been 2 days ago, I watched another news clip from DW, and the anchor was really trying to build up the explanation that fire in Urumqi (my hometown) was because there were uyghurs living in, and that was really shady.
