The Resilience of the Regime After the End of the Zero-Covid Protests
The stress test was a number of things when the variant evolved to one that was so easily transmissible, it needed zero COVID. They started using soft violence, intimidation, kicking, punching. That is when I think that people started questioning state policies. In Shanghai, the Shanghai government did do a great job. But groceries did not arrive on time.
