It is worth noting that Western media are now paying more and more attention to the impact of the sequelae of the new crown, which may mean that Western media with a keen sense of smell are finally beginning to realize the risks hidden here. Although the severe illness and mortality rate has decreased after the Omickron variant has appeared, for example, about 400,000 deaths in the United States in 2021 and about 230,000 deaths in 2022 (statistics) are less than 230,000, but the Omickron variant still changes the ecology since 2020. It is reflected in its extremely high transmission and immune breakthrough capabilities, and can cause repeated infections, thereby creating more tight medical resources and more significant sequelae problems. The impacted population is not only more, but also younger. At the same time, the excess mortality rate in the United States has not dropped significantly, which may mean that a large number of deaths are indirectly related to the new crown.
Originally, delta strain may have been infected at most twice a year, but now Omickron strain can be infected twice a month. In Taiwan Province, China alone, more than 600 people have been infected twice a month. The consequences of repeated infections have not yet fully demonstrated, but if we look at the excess mortality rate of Singapore is steadily increasing, we may not be optimistic.
In this case, if the infection is not stopped, the new coronavirus variant is likely to continue to invert new strains, thereby continuing to infect countries without much control, and continuing to expand the impact of the sequelae of the new coronavirus. Moreover, if repeated infections are repeated, it may have a severe impact on physical fitness in the long run, and the harm to the main labor force groups in society may gradually appear, which is very bad.
UK unemployment is at an all-time low of only 3.5%, but this happens on the basis of a large amount of labor force exiting the labour market. Similarly, many people believe that there is no medical run in developing countries , but it is obvious that logically the voices in developing countries are smaller and the benefits are worse. We are likely to see the problem that Vietnamese workers have to withdraw from the labor market or even lose their source of income.
For China, it is very expensive to dynamically clear in , and there is no big controversy. But overall, China's dynamic clearance ensures that most of the population has not been infected with the virus, and most of the infected people have only been infected once. Under such circumstances, China's overall population health may actually gradually improve than other countries, and save very considerable medical expenses and sequelae recovery costs. This is still very important for Chinese society, which is not so poor but not rich.
After all, if China now relaxes control and many Chinese people cannot enter employment due to sequelae, then many families are likely to lose a large number of economic income, and the number of these families is likely to continue to increase with the occurrence of repeated infections, thereby inducing new social problems. China's welfare cannot support too large-scale high-level protection. If control is laid off hastily, more and more people will fall back into poverty due to repeated infections. When will the dynamic zeroing end in
dynamic zeroing end mainly depends on the epidemic itself. The emergence of Omickron changed some of the game rules, allowing the consequences to be presented in a different way than delta , which is very clear. But if we can last for a relatively reliable time, and can ensure that there is no medical run or the virus becomes milder, we will likely have a healthier population and fewer medical expenses than many countries, which will generally be beneficial to China's international competitiveness.
used to be called the "sick man of East Asia". In the past, when Chinese people were generally thin, malnutrition, poor hygiene habits, and low life expectancy compared to Europe, they were a manifestation of China's backwardness. The physical revolution is also an integral part of the modern revolution. Now, the physical fitness of Chinese people is much better than in the past. If we can safely overcome this round of public health crisis, then Chinese people will also have better competitiveness around the world and the Chinese economy can also move forward lightly.
