Covid-2019 - 2022-05-08

Summary: 

Despite headlines that Omicron is invading Beijing, reported new Covid cases in China have fallen to almost nothing. The intense but short-lived national Omicron wave seems to have collapsed -- and not because of lockdowns, because the exact same pattern has been seen in every Omicron wave world-wide, where there were generally no lockdowns.
