China acknowledged Wednesday that it can't keep track of COVID-19 cases a week after rolling back its draconian"zero COVID" policies that have been in place since the onset of the pandemic.
The changes in COVID-19 reporting come as the Chinese government backtracks from its long-standing"zero COVID" policy that forced millions of residents into strict lockdowns over the past two years and stunted economic activity. Under the relaxed guidelines, people with mild or no symptoms are allowed to quarantine in their homes instead of a government facility. The length of COVID-19 lockdowns in areas with detected cases has also been shortened to five days, among other changes.
