So what? covid-19 is now here.

Covid-19 is not a new virus. It is a kind of coronavirus. It is a kind of common cold virus. There is no market for covid-19 vaccine once enough people have got it and are immune. Only flu vaccine has market for it.

175 + 330 local confirmed cases (symptomatic and asymptomatic, respectively) reported today. It was 214 + 312 yesterday. In a few days, we will know if this is just another small wave or it is turning into a surge.

Most of the symptomatic cases are still in Jilin (46), Guangdong (45), Shangdong (31). 6 asymptomatic cases became symptomatic.


Most of the asymptomatic cases are in Shangdong (144), Guangdong (73), Shanghai (51) and Jilin (29). Shanghai had 45 yesterday, added 51 today and again widely spread over the whole city.

19 probable cases became confirmed. Total 2407 (1215 imported and rest local) asymptomatic probable cases (due to close contact?) are under close watch.
AFAIK China has not changed from their dynamic zero policy? What's the reason behind all these surges? Is it coming from HK?

Hong Kong, mails and parcel from HK, borders with Russia, Vietnam, and Myanmar. Also dynamic zero has become more surgical so that it wouldn't be that disruptive. Therefore, there are possibilities that it would take more time to exterminate a new pop up than before.

mails and parcels do not really spread it that much.

Of course, but when you have so many mails and packages then it is a problem especially during the winter. You just need one person to get infected from mails and packages that the virus would spread like fire.
How come the Indians do not get infected that much from mail and parcels? They already got herd immunity?
