Covid-free China policy: Censorship cleans up internet after high-ranking official’s speech on Beijing timeline

The Beijing Daily, the official newspaper of the Communist Party of the Chinese capital, earlier reported that the city’s party chief, Cai Zhi, said on Monday that “over the next five years, Beijing will resolutely implement the Covid-19 epidemic control measures and adhere to the ‘zero- Covid policy to prevent incoming cases and the recovery of local cases.”

Tsai, a close ally of Chinese President Xi Jinping,’s reference to the “next five years” sparked a massive backlash on Chinese social media. In response, the Beijing Daily deleted the line, calling it an “editing error” while leaving his other notes on epidemic controls as is.

CNN reviewed the entire speech, and while the published quote from the Beijing Daily was misleading, Tsai discussed at length the possibility of maintaining non-Covid-19 policies in the capital over the next five-year period.

The epidemic controls that will remain in place include routine PCR tests, strict entry rules, regular health checks in residential neighborhoods and public places, as well as strict monitoring and testing of people entering and leaving Beijing, state media quoted Cai as saying.

“I should reconsider whether I should continue to stay in Beijing in the long term,” one user wrote on Weibo, China’s Twitter-like platform.

Another user said, “Over the next five years… what’s the point of being alive.”

Weibo has since banned the hashtag “for the next five years” from its platform.
