Judging China's COVID-19 response

February 17, 2023 

China has achieved a major and decisive victory in its COVID-19 prevention and control since November 2022, the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee said at a meeting on Thursday.

The country's COVID-19 cases fell to the lowest on February 6 since December 9, 2022, according to data from the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, and its COVID-19 fatality rate remained the world's lowest.

Latest data: 

· According to estimates from the World Health Organization (WHO), China's COVID-19 control measures may have prevented more than 50,000 people from dying between 2020 and 2021

· January's data shows that over 90 percent of China's 1.4 billion population has been fully vaccinated, and over 90 percent of people over the age of 60 have been fully vaccinated

· More than 200 million people are accessing medical services and nearly 800,000 severe cases are receiving proper treatment


What is the impact on China's economy?

· Travel in the country saw a significant rebound during the 2023 Spring Festival travel rush, which lasted 40 days from January 7 to February 15. A total of 4.73 billion passenger trips were made nationwide as the country embraced its first Chinese New Year with downgraded COVID-19 measures

· Sales revenue of China's consumption-related sectors increased 12.2 percent from the same period last year

· In January, the purchasing managers' index (PMI) for China's manufacturing sector came in at 50.1, up from 47 in last December, returning to expansion territory for the first time since September 2022

· The activities of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) also picked up in January
