You'd be creating a cycle where you have to test everyone every few days to ensure they didn't pick up covid in the queue at the test centre or on the journey there. There's a reason no country has implemented what you have described, and its not because everyone is stupid.

We are in endless lockdown, no vaccine, economies destroyed, lives destroyed, while China has returned to normal life for many months now....but yeah let's ignore it, China always the evil guys, doesn't matter what topic we are talking about. Thank God we are not China, thank God we are in endless lockdowns! How righteous and happy we are? Clowns.

China is messed up for a lot of things but they dealt with the virus properly and have been free to live their lives for a long while now. Is pretending that isn't so somehow going to help you sleep better at night for your upcoming months of lockdown? Is that what this is about? Enjoy your lockdown while they get to live. Then tell me who you feel sorry for. Clowns, again.

Virus aside, I do know a few people who couldn't get out of the place fast enough after thinking "it won't be too bad." It's a surveillance state that took the novel 1984 as a manual. They are regularly on the brink of disease outbreaks because they have hygiene standards akin to Victorian dumps They have a hive mentality, like insects, where the individual is of the least importance and have full intent on trying to take over everything they can, including pillaging Africa in a new colonialism that would make the British empire proud. After having been the root cause of this pandemic, they are actively using the weakness of other countries to buy up everything they can at rock bottom prices. Like vulture funds, but country-size. There are websites devoted to Chinese "buyers" for Ireland now that opportunity knocks. How nice of them. They have literal concentration camps, active ethnic cleansing, "re-education"... I could go on, very easily. The bottom line is that China is a problem that's going to be dealt with one way or another, and the idea of preferring living there to here?! Nooooooooo problem, baby. Fook them and the chaos they have caused

And in any case, this isn't about the many ****ty things about China, it's about the facts of their Covid 19 situation at the moment. Which puts the entire 'enlightened' western world to absolute shame. Enjoy your 'freedoms' of 'not being surveillanced' as we rot away in endless lockdowns. Really worth it that.
Gradius wrote: » Absolutely wrong. 100% plain incorrect. Everything I mentioned is true, every last single bit. China as a leading incubator of disease? True. China aggressively taking over parts of Africa? True China has a hive-like outlook? True China caused this disease? True China capitalising on the devastation it caused? True China has city-sized concentration camps? True China has ethnic cleansing underway? True China has "re-education" centers for dissenters? True China spies on its own citizens to a degree unheard of? True China has a "social points" system that punishes people? True So considering those easily verified facts, whether by BBC or even bloody RTE who were run out of the place during an investigation recently, is it any surprise that the place is portrayed as "normal"? A combination of pure lies and a government/people that enjoy crippling crack-downs on freedom. And so forth. So fook China and all its apologist lackeys. Ireland on its worst day will always be better than that place on its best day.
