Lifting the Lockdown in China

Beijing, China:

The COVID-19 situation in China is being controlled efficiently so far, and there has not been any leap in numbers of the infected. The lockdown in Wuhan has finally been lifted, and things will probably keep returning to normal.

Of course, we have to wear a mask when going outside, and we also have to keep social distancing. Many schools have reopened, most people are back to work, and the traffic has returned to normal, so things are looking good again!

However, we are still facing two main problems: transmission by import cases and asymptomatic patients infections, which have kept Beijing on alert. As a result, I am still learning online at home. We can only wait until every problem fades away.
