China Suspends Funerals, Closes Schools Amid “Spiraling COVID Infections”
As a fresh wave of “deadly coronavirus infection grips China“, the Xi Jinping administration has shut schools and suspended weddings and funerals in the country’s capital Beijing. As per the city’s Educational bureau, all the schools have been ordered to finish classes by Friday. The move was apparently taken to avoid a Shanghai-like lockdown.
Beijing has ordered mass testing for its 21 million people after Monday’s nucleic acid tests of 3.5 million residents revealed 32 positive cases, while the eastern metropolis of Shanghai has reported 52 more deaths, taking the toll during the current outbreak to 190, officials said.
The Chinese capital, which is battling the spread of the Omicron variant in the city, similar to Shanghai, has ordered mass testing from Tuesday in 11 of its districts, virtually covering all of its 21 million population. The country has reported some 214,243 cases of the deadly viral infection since the pandemic started.

In addition to the spray, flamethrowers are used to kill the coronavirus so that no corona remains. A kind of conceptual movement that shows that Chinese politics is wrong.#China pic.twitter.com/ks3dORFLyf
In #China's #lockdown, this woman was forced to take the daily Covid test by the Covid authorities. They pin her down and pry her mouth open to get her sample. This is absolutely disgusting treatment pic.twitter.com/9ufawpicAA

China. The man refused to do another test for Covid, who had already tortured the entire population of China.

A French wanted to suicide under the depression of Shanghai’s lockdown. Fears are growing among foreigners, with half saying they would leave China if the blockades ended, if at all. #ChinaLockdown pic.twitter.com/YQXs9s6d2R
