  1. I think the rest of the world needs to be aware there may be a new variant because china is in lockdown again…

  2. America education is very poor let me educate you a lil there is no cure for COVID-19 meaning it will not be controlled so why y'all think it just suppose go away? That not how diseases work

  3. In some ways, the whole country of China is a big prison with almost no freedom to speak against anything. This ove to lock up people really means, their prison cell got smaller. People of china don't care about lack of freedom of speech ,the only thing they care about is shopping luxury items every day and eating dimsum 10 times a day. They deserve this. I hope this goes on for a long time and the people become mentally ill.

  4. You can't trust China there is always trust issue with them ,they always deny things .this is reality of communist nations

  5. China lies about everything, they hide the true numbers who are infected and died.. Glad that Covid finds its way home stronger!

  6. Are the other countries shutting their borders to China.

  7. It's impossible to keep ZERO covid policy, period.

  8. Stop the evil release of the man made, lab grown mutating variant's! Enough is enough! The world has suffered enough. You've stolen our wealth and our freedom! But you will never take our spirits or our dreams of hope and happiness. Light workers shine your light!

  9. Yea, China's Covid a big deal, but isn't over a million death in the US is more concerning than what's happening in China?

  10. Well it's going to happen to United States again it's not going away it's getting worse wake up

  11. we need another lockdown. i miss the 2020 quarantine. everything was peaceful, streets were empty. curfew at 9pm, gas was extremely cheap. we need another variant. but a stronger one so we can be put in lockdown.

  12. They need to ban eating bats dogs cat ex….. And they will be fine every couple of months a new virus comes out of china

  13. Hey is the girls from snap

  14. Biden should ban all flights from China.

  15. They rejected our vaccines and wanted to go with their own. This didn't have to happen.

  16. China is not saying something, we are all doomed !!!

  17. China is not saying something, we’re are doomed !!!

  18. Well here we go again

  19. It’s Shanghai not Shaunghi.

  20. No one can stop the virus

  21. “The single biggest threat to man's continued dominance on the planet is the virus.” – Nobel Prize-winning biologist Joshua Lederberg

  22. Virus find its way home. Sow the wind and reap the whirlwind.

  23. NBC got their mouth watering on this one

  24. This lockdown exercise is good for preparedness in the next new kind of virus that China is culturing.

  25. America is the worst in covid prevention.

    USA = 81 million infections
    Death = over 1 million

    China = over 1 million infections
    Deaths = 4700

    Whenever China gets a few infections it is national news. Now they have over a few thousand and the USA is trying to make it sound like China is having protection issues. In China just 1 infection makes national news. USA is trying to say China locking down millions to be seemed like China has millions of people infected.

    USA still has 24k a day infection but by USA standards that is great. While 100 infections by Chinese standard is bad in China.

    USA makes no sense. USA is so horrible at infection prevention. Stop trying to act like China has a serious issue – compare their worjk versus your work. USA has the worst record – dang over 81 million infections to Chinas 1 million and China has four times the number of people.

    China loacked down Wuhan with 11 million people, that is not the same has having 11 millon infected. OMG USA trying so hard to bash China whe USA is the worst in Covid prevention and I say that based on truth.

  26. Meanwhile me keep getting weird looks when I wear masks in a crowded mall

  27. Throw china out from UNO. China should be punished by 4o trillion dollar as compensation for victims of virus.

  28. Maybe they know more than we do and have a reason tobe that strict with the containment…just remember when covid just broke out and how many people they lost from just one country not even counting the effect there after across the world.

  29. Great nation and Great leader! Do you best for the people!

  30. What would we do without fake news ?

  31. This is why its NOT safe to invest in china you will lose everything too many lockdowns
