China's Qingdao orders city-wide Covid-19 testing following new infections (reuters.com)

It’s a joke that a harmless measure is being taken to save (by your numbers) almost 12k people’s lives?

That 6 cases will grow exponentially if left unchecked, like what happened in Wuhan in early January. I thought people outside of China condemned it so vehemently for what they view as an lack of action by the government and in extension the country. They said china must pay, they must be sent back to the dark ages, they must be destroyed. Interesting that now being responsible to people's lives is also wrong.

China is basically fully open at the moment, and they have the test capacity. Of _course_ they should do this.
