• Something strange going on in China. Foreigners now not allowed to enter and airlines are only allowed to operate 1 flight to each country per week, limiting the number of imported cases (students returning from abroad), apparently no domestic transmission. However there's been a whole host of government measures in the last few days closing venues, moving the college entrance exam back by a month, forbidding sports events, etc. This is quite different to a week ago when the govt allowed us to open up our compounds again and officially said we don't need to wear masks if we're alone in public. Pretty sure there are a LOT more cases, historical and current, than have been officially announced.

  • We definitely won't get any real figures here, so have to read between the lines.
    Officially, we have beaten the virus and we devoted today (first day of tomb sweeping festival) to commemorating the martyrs. Lots of people out and about (it's 20 degrees and not polluted). However at 5pm we were all kicked out of parks, and apparently they've built a new field hospital in one of the outer suburbs (that has officially only had 10 cases EVER). Lots more anti foreigner stuff, including that foreigners now can't get tattoos, LOL. Second wave of the virus is coming sooooo soon (if it's not here already). I still have a green code but I know it can change colour for any reason whatsoever.
