China is once again on the dark side of the pandemic. The number of infections has exploded since Beijing suddenly abandoned its zero-Covid strategy. Hospitals are overcrowded, medicines are scarce and undertakers can no longer cope with the many corpses. According to estimates by British scientists, there are already a million new infections every day in China, as the new wave is just beginning; more than 5000 people may die every day.
