We have attached 43 exclusive videos from inside China showing the current situation. The videos will appear at the bottom of the story.

The Chinese government is doubling down on its “zero COVID” policies and is continuing to send millions of Chinese citizens to “quarantine camps” where they can spend up to a month in isolation before leaving. In addition to the camps, the government has rolled out almost daily mass testing and sophisticated technology to monitor those who do not comply.

According to numbers obtained by Our World in Data, China reported 4,547 new COVID cases on May 22 and had a seven-day average of 5,172. The country also reported 1 COVID death on May 22 and had a seven-day average of 2.

Despite the relatively low numbers for a population of approximately 1.5 billion people, China continues to maintain these restrictions are necessary, which has drawn criticism from the World Health Organization.

Recently, the World Health Organization released a statement criticizing the government’s restrictive policies put in place to eradicate COVID. In an interview, chief doctor of emergencies for the World Health Organization, Dr. Michael Ryan, called China’s “zero COVID” strategy “not sustainable.” Dr. Ryan said “We understand why the initial response of China was to try and suppress infections to the maximum level (but) that strategy is not sustainable and other elements of the strategic response needs to be amplified. Vaccination efforts should continue to be emphasized and a suppression-only strategy is not a sustainable way to exit the pandemic for any country.”

The recent criticism from top leaders at the World Health Organization is a very rare rebuke on China’s handling of COVID. In the past, some have accused the World Health Organization of being relatively passive in regards to China. One example includes World Health Organization investigators taking over a year to travel to China to investigate the origins of COVID-19.
