Also known as “China’s Great Revival.” A slogan by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) to restore China to its past glory as one of the greatest civilizations in the world following its defeat and humiliation in colonial and war times, and Mao’s decades-long totalitarian rule that impeded the motherland’s progress economically and scientifically.

No doubt, the new emperor is boldly preaching about “Make China Great Again!”

An often less draconian or more relaxed house confinement for residents of some cities or counties, or for the entire country, which may last a few weeks or even months in the aftermath of an increasing infection or mortality rate in the population.
A number of dictatorial or weak regimes are leveraging on Lockdown 2.0 to postpone the general election on the excuse that holding one during the pandemic crisis would unavoidably lead to more infections and deaths.

When the world hopes that Covid-19 would suffer the same fate as the dodo in 2021, as the coronavirus or its mutated deadlier version loses its fight against any new vaccine.
