Corona will peak in most cities of China between mid-December and the end of January. Their model shows that millions of people have been infected in the cities of Shenzhen, Shanghai and Chongqing.
According to Bloomberg, according to estimates by the Chinese government's top health authority, about 37 million people in China have been infected with Kovid-19 in a single day this week. This figure is more than the claims made worldwide. At least 248 million people, or about 18% of the population, are likely to have been infected with the virus in the first 20 days of December, according to minutes of China's National Health Commission's internal meeting on Wednesday.
The record of 2022 will be broken.
If these figures are correct, it will break the record of a positivity rate of around 4 million a day in January 2022. Beijing's scrapping of the zero Covid policy has led to the unhindered spread of the new omicron variant of the highly contagious coronavirus in the population. According to the agency's estimates, more than half of the residents of China's southwest Sichuan province and the capital Beijing have been infected. People in China are now using rapid antigen tests to detect infection.
Corona will be at its peak between the end of January
Meanwhile, the government has stopped publishing the daily number of corona infected cases. Chen Qin, chief economist at data consultancy Metro DataTech, based on an analysis of online keyword searches, has said that most cities in China will peak between mid-December and the end of January. Their model shows that millions of people have been infected in the cities of Shenzhen, Shanghai and Chongqing.
Xi Jinping likely to hold review meeting
The situation is getting worse in Beijing, Sichuan, Anhui, Hubei, Shanghai and Hunan. Chinese President Xi Jinping is expected to hold his first COVID review meeting on Saturday (December 24) or Sunday (December 25).
China may face a complete lockdown
It is believed that President Jinping can announce a complete lockdown in China after this meeting. Experts have estimated the infection rate in Beijing to be 50 to 70 percent. In Shanghai, 25 million people are expected to be covid positive by next week.
Accused of hiding data
The Jinping government has also been accused of hiding corona figures. According to the government, only 8 people have died from Corona in the last one week. According to media reports, on December 20 alone, 36 million cases were reported in China. At the same time, from November 19 to December 18, 11 lakh people in China have applied online for death certificates. 60 new cemeteries each are being built in Beijing and Shanghai, while 40 new cemeteries are being built in Chengdu.
