“This August, sales in the domestic market turned from negative to positive,” Zhang Qinghui, chairman of the China Fashion Designers Committee, told Reuters last week.Sales of consumer goods, a proxy for consumption in China, rose across the board at the end of the third quarter, led by auto purchases, as household incomes returned to positive growth and employment conditions improved after being slammed by the COVID-19 pandemic.

“The services industry had been the most affected by COVID. Now, with restrictions being lifted, the industry is gradually emerging from its downturn, which would provide a strong boost to the broad recovery in the consumer market,” said Ernan Cui, analyst at Gavekal Dragonomics.

“We’ve returned to our old habits,” said a 57-year-old Shanghai retiree surnamed Chen, who went on a 22-day self-drive tour in western Xinjiang region with her friends.

Go to the South where the industries and manufacturing base used to be. You will see deserted factories and offices everywhere.

there wasn't a total lockdown throughout the country in China. Shanghai never had a lockdown, for example. it only applied to certain areas.

Not every country can just lock their people in. Even if it's the most effective approach.

Propaganda just like Russia saying they beat the Chinese virus

HowMuchDoesChinaWantForCovidAntidote

Half the people in the photo have mask on

And all it took was for them to wear masks and stay home. Who woulda thunk it to be that easy 🤷🏻‍♀️

China's economy booms while America's tanks. And all because of our own doing and economic shutdown. This is the only way China can beat the US, and many here want the shutdown to last into 2022. Western society has become very self-hating

Played you all like a fiddle and useful id__ts

Maybe society needs to have a rethink about consumerism

All Anti-China forces, please open your eyes if applicable and see how China does contain the new outbreak or any possible flare-up with immediate lockdown measures and mass testing. Now they have produced vaccine. The one laughs last laughs best.
