China has a particular problem that, for political reasons, it will not accept "Western" vaccine technology.
The Chinese vaccines are less effective, and, sadly, many Chinese, especially the older and more vulnerable, do not accept them.
Chinese media edits out or blocks TV screenings of e.g. large sporting or cultural events where thousands of spectators are maskless, because it would allow the populace to see that Western nations have dealt with Covid better.
More prosperous Chinese with access to Western media are flocking to Macau where Western vaccines are available.
It is reported that more than 250 million people have been infected since rules were relaxed. Hospitals have run out of oxygen and beds. I imagine the temporary "hospitals" for infected people to be stored will reopen.
As happened here, mortuaries and crematoria are overwhelmed.
