Passengers push their luggage through the international arrivals hall at Beijing Capital International Airport after China lifted the coronavirus disease quarantine requirement for inbound travellers in Beijing, China, on Jan 8, 2023.BEIJING - Many parts of China are already past their peak of Covid-19 infections, state media reported on Tuesday , with officials further downplaying the severity of the outbreak despite international concerns about its scale and impact.
The frequent lockdowns, relentless testing and various levels of movement curbs since early 2020 have brought the world's second-largest economy to one of its slowest growth rates in nearly half a century and caused widespread distress. On Tuesday, a Health Times compilation of reports from local government officials and health experts across the country, suggested the Covid wave may be past its peak in many regions.
In the province of Jiangsu, the peak was reached on Dec 22, while in Zheijiang province "the first wave of infections has passed smoothly," officials said. Two cities in the southern Guangdong province, China's manufacturing heartland, reached their peaks before the end of the year. Testing requirements introduced by several countries, including the United States, Japan, South Korea, Britain, France and others in response to China's Covid outbreak, were called out by foreign ministry as "discriminatory."
Although Beijing also demands negative Covid test results from people landing in China, officials have threatened retaliation against countries mandating tests for visitors from China.
