Zero COVID-19 Policy

Ahead of the Beijing Winter Olympics 2022, 53 athletes from 12 nations, set to participate, tested positive for COVID-19 and are in isolation. Efforts like "zero COVID-19 policy" curbing local transmission by enforcing strict restrictions, seems to be in vain. In addition, due to the situation, at least 12 athletes were deprived to participate in the event. Notably, China announced to conduct COVID free 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing.
