Why?
First you have 1.4 billion Chinese people with no immunity to Covid-19 whatsover. So, first of all they have no immunity to Delta or Omicron or any other variant. Though it's true there are now at least 4 variants of Omicron (the latest two are offshoots of BA.2) Sinovac doesn't keep people out of the hospital with any of these variants because it is only 30% effective. On top of this people over 40 or 50 were not vaccinated because the Chinese government doesn't really value people over 40 or 50 so the primary group that would die will be over 40 or 50 years old.
The same thing happened here in the U.S. when 75% of those who have died of all variants of Covid have been over 65 years old. 21% have been 45 to 65 years old and ONLY 4% have been under 45 years old.
So, the Chinese EXPECT to lose at least 3 million people within the next few months all over China.
From this point of view, Zero Covid has become a complete and utter disaster for not only China but for the whole world if new variant(s) are spawned in China because we don't know what direction the variants might go in. 1.4 billion people with Zero immunity to Covid-19 is a pretty big incubator after all.
So, Watch out world!
Because we don't know what's coming next!
