China police using vast toolkit of surveillance, individual intimidation against protesters. Some are getting calls/visits from police. A Beijing protester who got the call said police may have been calm during protest, but CCP knows how to exact punishment afterwards @AC360

This McDonald’s 🍔🍟 in Beijing takes your temperature and makes you sign your name & phone # before walking in. There was also an employee spraying disinfectant in the air. Beijing has been tightening regulations amid #Coronavirius #COVID2019 @QuickTake

I’ve spent some time digging into the 2,752 twitter accounts linked to the Kremlin-backed IRA. Dozens of them posed as legitimate local American news sites, gained half a million+ followers, and were cited by 100+ news organizations.

How the Kremlin Tried to Pose as American News Sites on Twitter

Twitter has suspended dozens of accounts masquerading as U.S. news sources that had more than 500,000 followers.

China to end quarantine for inbound arrivals, restart outbound tourism in "orderly manner". Major move towards formal end of zero covid & ending China's 3 yrs of isolation. Part of broader policy that downgrades covid management to a less infectious disease @wolfblitzer

China will be scrapping quarantine for incoming travelers from Jan 8. China's National Health Commission just announced it's downgrading covid to "Category B management". Before, it was category A, putting it on par w/ bubonic plague/cholera.

Heavy police presence in Beijing. Near Sitong Bridge, many police vans and policemen on the street. This is a sensitive spot bc it’s where anti-Xi and anti-Covid banners were hung in October. One read: “remove dictator and national traitor Xi Jinping”

Goodbye Hong Kong! Just landed in Beijing. 8 hour wait in HK airport for pre-boarding PCR test. Another long wait after PCR test in Beijing airport. Sign says 2-3 hours to get luggage bc it all gets disinfected and then hand carried. Getting used to seeing hazmat suits again
