April 18 2022 – LinkedIn article and post : A Whole new World : A meta-analysis of pre-Omicron zero covid strategy China’s post Wuhan clusters
Since January 30 2020, I have spent about 5500 hours curating China Covid dynamics data every day, rain or shine, into the most comprehensive data set that exists with just the help of my volunteer team of Solidarity Covid – Expats in China. I have written 15 articles for LePetitJournal, the French online expat newsletter illustrating those unique data sets and insights they deliver to understand better how China in zero covid strategy is dealing with outbreaks and international travel. Many have suggested that the contents of those articles should be published in English in scientific reviews to give better visibility to our work and finally get funding to perpetuate our singular work.
Covid runs so fast, by the time the journal accepts the topic coming from a volunteer team and not from established scholars, by the time they accept a data set requiring daily data entry on multiple sources and not accessible online with full back data like all the other countries reporting Covid data, by the time the review is completed, another variant and several waves will have hit the world and China and make the article, the book or whatever totally out of date.
China is now at dire straits in safeguarding its zero covid strategy, 2 Omicron BA.2 major outbreaks have re-shuffled a number of rules and the scales have to be revisited, we are in another era but still in zero covid strategy as the mega clusters are concentrated in 2 areas and other provinces are dealing with smaller outbreaks mainly related to the major ones which will be under control in a few weeks as usual. Hence, I have decided to publish this “pre-Omicron BA.2” analysis completed between December 12 and February 10 2022. Link below or PDF available for download.
