citing the corona virus. ah, i'm british manager, welcome to did up the news asia glad you could join us. china remains probably the only large country in the world still sticking to a 0 corporate approach to the corona, virus pandemic, for its citizens of that has meant never ending restrictions loc downs and regular steep mandated testing. and the signs are this will continue for some time, especially given an upcoming communist party congress for president she campaign is expected to assume a historic 3rd term in power. authorities want to leave nothing to chance and that is attempt not for many a header for a week of national holidays that begins on saturday. ah, passenger numbers here, paint a gloomy picture of domestic travel. this flights headed to one of china's top

tourist destinations. upon arrival, the familiar sight of people dressed in hazmat suits as standing by to swaby. this is the city of young man in northern chance he province. it's fame for being a war time stronghold for the communists during the chinese civil war, and must visit for party faithfuls. but it status as a red tourism hotspot hasn't shielded it from the effects of coven 19 travel curbs . none ling schwann is a folk singer. unlike many people from yen and relies on travelers to make ends meet summer to go good visitors from all over the country have declined. so our income has also fallen, especially for artists like us. life is extremely hard. non says she hopes visitors numbers will pick up over china's national golden week holidays. it's a peak, 7 day holiday period marking the handling of modern day china. but the pandemic has

hit hard at the last 2 years. one resident we spoke to called juan z while said it was impossible not to notice the change from you 3 years ago. tons of people would come here from all over the country and even from abroad to see this historic site . since the pandemic traffic has decreased dramatically, tourist, i'd like to wear mosque and they don't like the idea of maybe not being able to go home. if there's a lock down. i had of china's twice a decade. come this party congress though authorities are tightening restrictions even further. the countries leadership is set for a shakeup, and president, she is expected to secure a precedent breaking 3rd term has doubled down on china's 0 coven approach to ensure stability from locked dan's to constant testing. there's plenty of fatigue, anger, even overcome restrictions, but people don't like to talk about it openly. early this year a thought is one, they take action against any criticism of the country's curve at policies. still,

there are plenty of signs of people cracking this curve. a testing booth was spotted recently sprayed with graffiti saying give me freedom or give me death. in this video of circulating chinese social media, a man gets a set off when security tell him to mask up while he's sitting alone in his own restaurant. jew mesa is a senior analyst and research from trivial china. he says people looking for a quick, relaxed ation of covey curves after congress a likely to be disappointed. a main concern here is about medical resources. right . and the government is very concerned that were to abandon coke 0. you would certainly have overwhelming of hospitals. ah, not no medical resources to go around what we may see. ready is after she is firmly ensconced in his 3rd term and in one sort of the political aspect, assert and squared away. there may be some additional room for policy experimentation for on a small scale and then it pretty cut all on

a larger scale. it couldn't come soon enough for places like yanna nationwide tourism fell by 28 percent in the 1st half of this year compared to 2021. according to china's tourism ministry. many people's livelihoods here depend on a ton around happening sooner, rather than later. let's get more of this from poland. bang, you know, east asia bureau and type bay which also reports on china bowen. why is china still sticking to its core with 0 approach? where nearly every other country has learned to live with the wires? well, can say that the reason why china today is still taking to koby their old policy. it's because of the political prestigious, because china, where the 1st outbreak was registered has always wanted to show the world that you can control the pandemic better than other countries. for the chinese government,

from chinese, chinese government's perspective, the 0 covey lockdown strategy has been successful by some metrics over old china has been able to keep cases. and dest, though, compared with many countries, including the u. s. and the chinese government has made that a point of pride, but now they're paying the price for the policy. however, we can also assume that if koby restrictions are loosened, china will, you know, the potential are picking cases. hospital will be flooded with the patients and the whole medical system may face the breakdown and the law vaccine nation rate, amanda elderly, in one medical reason, chinese authority used to justify that ongoing this, this consummation. busy doesn't mean that china will continue to stick to this policy even after the communist party congress and mid october. yeah, so far we don't see any, you know, concrete timeline for eating coby,

the real policy in china. however, we do hear people that just that the government should consider it comprehensively on sunday, chinese commentator who she didn't say that, you know, as china pound, it's coded 900 policies. epidemic experts need to speak out and the government should conduct comprehensive research and make any study transparent to the public . he said the government should tell people what are the pros and cons of the policy for ordinary people and for the whole country. usually anti government message on social media platform will be censored, but this time you didn't and many that is enjoying the conversation and hope the government to do something. so we think under the know the pressure, the public from the public chinese government will do something. what of all this meant for there are people in this country. i mean that the coven,

jiro policy. so, chinese government explain. that's because the low rates, vaccination rates of elderly people, mostly you know, up up the age of 60. and because they are now, they're more like a constitute conservative group of people they did along to, you know, get the vaccine. and that's why they are the potential threat for the country. because if they, if they got effected, then you will cause like a breakdown for the medical system. how is that over europe policy impacting people's everyday lives? bowen? so as we saw that in their reporting with a go down week holidays start starting on october 1st. some analysts to predict the there will be a drop in tourist numbers, and you may heard the charities and industry as well. however, you know,

like chinese cities including beijing, shanghai, 19, and she on have advice the rest of them to stay put as they're coming. national holidays and they use this as the approach to reduce the risk of spreading in academic and playing up. so cross country, an expert has also noted that the recognition re meant cautious effort. countries still faces pressure to cover the virus. i'm previously, we still a lot of people, you know, they're like who have been impact by the, the lockdown previously like some charge that happened on social media platforms like a bus transporting residence to, to call the parenting wage or has crushed and was yeah, killing like very, it's a kind of a po, type a. thank you so much for joining us today. in india,

our policies have approved the needs of vaccine against over 19, since it sprayed directly into the nose. it provides immunity at the point where the corona virus into the body, doctors in the country are optimistic, the ease of administering the vaccine, along with the convenience of storing. it will encourage more people to get vaccinated this vaccination center in new delhi, gen, immunize up to 300 people a day. but doctors say lately, only a few people show up daily to day dr. which are good. them who had, as the center says that they expect that to change soon. only she thinks the newly developed nasal vaccine will increase the number of vaccinations at the center. since the vaccine is to be administered in that spray or else will form, this will not required any injection technique,
