Imithetho emisha ichitha ukuvalelwa okuphoqelekile kwabantu abangenazimpawu noma abanamacala athambile.

“Abantu abane-Asymptomatic abangenwe yileli gciwane kanye namacala athambile afanelekele ukuhlukaniswa nekhaya ngokuvamile ahlala bodwa ekhaya, noma angakhetha ngokuzithandela ukuhlukaniswa yedwa ukuze bathole ukwelashwa,” kufundeka imithetho emisha.

“Abantu abahambela izifundazwe abadingi ukuthi banikeze umphumela wokuhlolwa wamahora angama-48 futhi abadingi ukuhlola lapho befika.”

I-China izophinde isheshise ukugonywa kwabantu asebekhulile, kusho i-NHC, kudala ibonwa njengesithiyo esikhulu ekuphumuzeni indlela yaseBeijing yokungabekezelelani ku-Covid.

Imibhikisho eyivelakancane ephikisana necebo leQembu lamaKhomanisi elibusayo elithi zero-Covid iqubuke kulo lonke elaseChina ngasekupheleni kwenyanga edlule.

Bakhule babiza inkululeko eyengeziwe yezepolitiki, abanye baze bathi uMengameli uXi Jinping ehle esikhundleni.

Iziphathimandla zephule imizamo eyalandela yokubhikisha ngenkathi yehlisa imingcele eminingana, kanti amanye amadolobha aseShayina ahlehlisa kancane ukuhlolwa kwabantu abaningi kanye nokunqanda ukunyakaza.

Inhlokodolobha iBeijing, lapho amabhizinisi amaningi evule khona kabusha ngokugcwele, ithe kuleli sonto abagibeli abasadingeki ukuthi bakhombise ukuhlolwa kwegciwane elingenalo elithathwe kungakapheli amahora angama-48 ukusebenzisa izithuthi zomphakathi.

Isikhungo sezezimali iShanghai – esivalwe ngesihluku izinyanga ezimbili kulo nyaka – simemezele imithetho efanayo, nezakhamizi zikwazi ukungena ezindaweni ezingaphandle njengamapaki nezindawo eziheha izivakashi ngaphandle kokuhlolwa kwakamuva.

Futhi lapho sekubuswe ukumbozwa kwenhlekelele nobumnyama bezingozi zaleli gciwane nezigcawu zesiphithiphithi esiwubhubhane phesheya, imidiya elawulwa ngokuqinile yaseChina yashintsha iphimbo ukuze isekele umuntu ozama ukuqhela ku-zero-Covid.

Uhlobo lwe-Omicron oludlangile “alufani neze nokwehluka kwe-Delta yangonyaka odlule,” kusho uprofesa wezokwelapha ose-Guangzhou u-Chong Yutian esihlokweni esishicilelwe yi-China Youth Daily ephethwe yi-Communist Party.

Kepha abahlaziyi benkampani yaseJapan iNomura ngoMsombuluko babale ukuthi amadolobha angama-53 – okuyikhaya cishe ingxenye yesithathu yabantu baseChina – ayesenemikhawulo ethile.

Isimemezelo sangoLwesithathu size ngemuva kwamahora uhulumeni ekhiphe eminye imininingwane ekhombisa umthelela omubi wezomnotho we-zero-Covid.
