Nearly 60,000 people have died in hospitals from the effects of the coronavirus a month after China lifted its zero-tolerance policy for the coronavirus. However, this figure is likely a gross underestimate.
In China, 80% of the population is sick or has had COVID-19 in the most recent outbreak. On Saturday, January 21, according to Reuters.
It has already been mentioned in this regard, the possibility of a sharp increase in infection cases in China in the next two to three months is unlikely.
“The massive movement of people during the New Year holidays may lead to further spread of the pandemic, prompting an increase in infections in some areas, but a second wave of COVID is unlikely in near future,” said Wu Zunyu, chief epidemiologist at the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention.
As of January 12, about 60,000 people have died in hospitals from the effects of the coronavirus, a month after China lifted its zero-tolerance policy for the coronavirus, according to government figures.
Some experts said the number was likely a significant underestimate because it did not include those who died at home and because many doctors said they were discouraged from listing COVID as a cause of death.
It was previously reported that a new wave of Covid-19 in China is threatening Apple’s business and could cause delays in iPhone production.
