According to the weekly report provided by the World Health Organization on January 15th, China reported the greatest number of COVID-19 hospitalisations since the beginning of the pandemic.
But the WHO said it was waiting for “specific province data disaggregated by week of reporting” before adding in the approximately 60,000 extra COVID-related hospital deaths reported by China last week.
According to the WHO study based on statistics supplied by Beijing, the number of persons hospitalised in China with the condition increased by 70% over the previous week, reaching 63,307.
It has been over three years since the first cases of COVID-19 were reported, and this is China’s highest weekly total since then.
Cases have spiked across the nation of 1.4 billion since early December, when Beijing abruptly abandoned its stringent three-year anti-virus programme of frequent testing, travel limits, and mass lockdowns in response to huge demonstrations in late November.

The World Health Organization and others have claimed that China is under-reporting the severity of the outbreak and have repeatedly demanded more information from the country, particularly regarding deaths, excess mortality, and genetic sequences.
