Concerns have emerged one after another that millions of people could die if China completely eliminates “Zero Corona”.
The World Health Organization, WHO, is actively recommending the importation of vaccines as a response to China’s coronavirus.

After the so-called “empty protest” in China, the quarantine measures are being relaxed one after another.
Beijing, the capital, and Tianjin, the large city, will abolish the requirement to provide negative PCR test results for public transport.
Tianjin has already been in force since 2, and Beijing and Shenzhen have also decided to abolish it.

However, concerns have emerged one after another that millions of people could die if China eliminates “Zero Corona”.
Zhou Jiatong, director of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention of China’s Guangsha Zhuang Autonomous Region, warned the death toll could rise to 2 million if quarantine measures are immediately eased as in Hong Kong.
A joint analysis by US and Chinese researchers published in ‘Nature Medicine’ also saw that the number of deaths could rise to 1.5 million, and a British information analysis company made a similar prediction.
In this regard, the World Health Organization (WHO) has stressed that China should use imported vaccines to prepare for quarantine mitigation measures.
He stressed that imported vaccines could be an active solution, saying China’s self-developed vaccines have proven relatively less effective.

WHO has also diagnosed that over 90% of the world’s population has some degree of immunity to Corona 19.
However, he warned that we should not let our guard down, saying that fatal mutations could appear and recur due to poor quarantine and health care systems in underdeveloped countries.
