China Prepares for Another Covid Outbreak

ZH: China Braces For Possible Large-Scale COVID-19 Outbreak: Leaked CCP Documents

The Chinese regime has notified local authorities to prepare for a large-scale outbreak of COVID-19, according to leaked internal documents obtained by the Chinese Epoch Times.

One document, titled “Notice of Further Strengthening of Epidemic Prevention” was issued by the Chinese regime’s State Council, and forwarded by Fujian provincial government to local authorities on Sept. 30. The other is a “National Day Epidemic Prevention Notice” issued by the State Council on Oct. 1 and distributed by the Fujian provincial officials to local authorities.

The documents are both marked “extra urgent.”

Both notices request enhanced preparations for an emergency response to the outbreak, with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) putting forward at least two standards for local authorities.

One is to build central isolation sites, with local authorities required by the end of October to create facilities of not less than 20 rooms per 10,000 people. The scale of each isolation site must be more than 100 rooms.

Assuming the report is true, possibilities include:

1. Occam's Razor. Fear of an outbreak caused by National Day holidays that would probably kill Spring Festival tourism, trigger economically-damaging draconian lockdowns all over China because that is the baseline policy there, and generally reflect badly on the Party.

2. Knowledge of an ongoing outbreak/mutation that hasn't been reported yet.

3. Fear of ADE hitting the vaccinated population.

4. A fakeout to create another wave of Western nation shutdowns.

5. Cover to shut economic activities as part of an economic/financial strategem or to coer up an actual recession.
