"So they will carefully monitor the situation if indeed due to the winter season and the fact that they are what we call totally immunologically naive, they now have a major surge. Then they may clamp down again. But we are all not expecting this because the vaccine coverage rate is not that bad and it is increasing."

"Even last year, many people did visit relatives and get together around Chinese New Year. And I think, you know, this year there will be that much more desire to do so. And if they can get enough elderly people vaccinated, I would think it's probably safe for people to do so. And I don't think the government is just itching to keep people separated for the sake of keeping them separated. But I think there is a lot of concern that infections could go up, or if restrictions were to be rolled back too quickly, the situation would become harder to control."

"We are now indeed entering what we call endemicity. That means we are now moving from a pandemic to an endemic state. And the definition of this is that we that the reproductive numbers, you know, the R-nought that we've always talked about is now around one or sometimes below one. Maybe if there's a little bit of a cluster, then they can go above one. But it's it's now in more in a steady state than we've ever seen it before."
