Covid deaths increased to 9,000 per day in China. According to the data firm, “British-based research firm Airfinity has doubled the number of people it estimates are dying from COVID in China as the number of infections soar. It comes after Beijing lifted draconian zero-COVID health measures in November that had been in place for years.”
Moreover, protests were held across China due to the strict lockdown protocols after 10 people died in an apartment fire. It was revealed that firefighters were stopped from coming inside the apartment due to the quarantine measures.
There may have been 100,000 fatalities in China related to COVID in December, and there were at least 18.6 million cases. There could be up to 3.7 million COVID instances every day by mid-January.
China is anticipated to experience 584,000 fatalities by January 23.
