is the port it from his homeland. and it's stripped of his residency status in his homeland, which is a very far reaching i thing to do, or someone from a son of a country. so i think that the saying that he's known as terrorist or what not even if it's true and we're not sure it's true, it's not enough to report somebody from his homeland. what's covered? 19 infections are rising rapidly across china after the government last week, dramatically east. some of the worlds toughest virus measures. nationwide frustration and unprecedented public protests forced authorities to act. but since then, more and more people are testing positive. official figures on infections and deaths remain low, but independent estimates point to the real fingers being a lot higher. ah, people in bay ging lineup to get nasal spray boosters cases or surging after the
