Good to see The Great Leader “concerned”.  Such a kind and caring individual. He’s done all he can to provide protection for his loyal servants and what do they do? They cause him to be concerned and perhaps lose a seconds sleep over it. The people should be ashamed!

As is the reports coming out of the tests being carried out at Thailand airports. They claim only 5 arrivals tested positive in the past two weeks compared to 300-400 people leaving. I think the fact they report 300-400 shows just how accurate these results are. 
 

Im giving serious consideration to stop reading Thai news reports. The level of stupidity is mind blowing.

Have a wonderful evening everyone.

China Covid: Coffins sell out as losses mount - BBC News

He is concerned.....he should be buried alive for the deaths he has caused.

How compassionate of Xi to be concerned about the possible spread of Wuhan flu in the rural provinces of the country. I don't understand his concerns, though; after all, he was more than happy to open the floodgates and allow his 'zero covid' countrymen to venture forth and flood other countries with a new strain... that hasn't yet been declared.

I wouldn't blame the Chairman for the travel of the Chinese. He gave the people what they wanted. Was it any different than how many Europeans behaved and still behave? They were rioting in Germany, France and the UK over Covid restrictions.  I am not going to lose sleep if millions of Chinese have problems because of Covid. I spent the past 2 years  negatively impacted because of them.
