The strategy focuses on mass testing and strict lockdowns with residents banned from leaving their homes until all new cases are either found in quarantine or through contact tracing.<\/p>\n<p>In practice, it meant the country has seen relatively few infections from the virus because clusters are tamped down as quickly as they&#8217;re discovered. The strategy has received popular support and prevented the large numbers of deaths seen in other countries, many of which have started to forgo any kind of <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">social<\/a> distancing measures.<\/p>\n<p>With China now facing its worst outbreak since late 2019, officials have vowed to double down on the zero-tolerance strategy to contain the current surge. However, China&#8217;s leader Xi Jinping acknowledged for the first time the burden of the measures on Thursday, saying that China should seek &#8220;maximum effect&#8221; with &#8220;minimum cost&#8221; in controlling the virus.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"article-gallery js-article-gallery\">\n<li data-thumb=\"https:\/\/scx1.b-cdn.net\/csz\/news\/tmb\/2022\/china-reports-first-co-1.jpg\" data-src=\"https:\/\/scx2.b-cdn.net\/gfx\/news\/hires\/2022\/china-reports-first-co-1.jpg\" data-sub-html=\"Workers wearing face shields and masks to help protect from the coronavirus prepare to clear the snow outside a health quarantine hotel Saturday, March 19, 2022, in the Yanqing district of Beijing, as the capital city was hit by a snowstorm.
