    Is China's 'Zero COVID' Policy Coming to an End?

    Uh, almost everyone I know, including myself caught COVID recently. Most of us are in Southern China, my in-laws up north caught them too. The few remaining coworkers that still go to work are mostly coughing. Most people I know have got at least 2 sinovac jabs as well. Stocks of Paracetamol...
