China acts against COVID policy critics, suspends social media accounts
China has reportedly suspended or closed the social media accounts of more than 1,000 critics of its policies on the COVID-19 outbreak.
The Sina Weibo social media platform said it had addressed 12,854 violations, permanent bans on 1,120 accounts and attacks on experts, scholars and medical workers.
The company said Thursday it “will continue to increase the investigation and cleanup of all kinds of illegal content and create a harmonious and friendly community environment for the majority of users.”
The Chinese Communist Party imposes strict limits on free speech, with previous methods prompting widespread protests in major cities.
AS COVID RAVAGES CHINA, US EXPANDS TESTING SYSTEM FOR INCOMING TRAVELERS
While the Chinese Communist Party has relied on its health care professionals to justify stringent mitigation efforts, the country has quickly moved to roll back restrictions, leading to a new surge.
China will no longer bring criminal charges against people who have been accused of violating border quarantine regulations, and those in custody will be released.

The official China Daily newspaper website said the adjustments were made after “comprehensively considering the harm of the behaviors to the society and aim to adapt to the new situations of the epidemic prevention and control.”
Cases and hospitalizations are on the rise, even as authorities say Lunar New Year travel is expected to double over the same period last year.
On Friday, China’s Transportation Ministry called for reduced trips and gathering, particularly if they involve those who are especially at risk of severe illness.
Vice Minister Xu Chengguang told reporters people using public transportation are also urged to wear masks and closely monitor their health.
China is continuing with a plan to end mandatory quarantines for those arriving from abroad, starting Sunday, in addition to dropping a requirement for students at city schools to have a negative COVID-19 test to enter campus when classes resume Feb. 13.

CHINA COVID CRISIS: BEIJING HOSPITAL RUNS OUT OF BEDS, FAMILIES BURN BODIES IN STREETS AS DEATHS SPIKE
The city education bureau said in a statement Friday that while schools can move classes online if there are new outbreaks, they must return to in-person instruction as soon as possible.
Chinese health authorities publish a daily count of new cases, severe cases and deaths. Those numbers include only officially-confirmed cases and use a narrow definition of COVID-related deaths.
Since the government ended compulsory testing, letting people with mild symptoms test themselves and convalesce at home, authorities say the government can no longer provide a full accounting of the state of the latest infections.
On Saturday, the National Health Commission reported 10,681 new domestic cases, and three new deaths were reported over the previous 24 hours.

The numbers are reportedly smaller than estimates being released by some local governments. The eastern Zhejiang province announced Tuesday it was seeing about 1 million new cases a day.
The Health Commission on Saturday rolled out rules for strengthened monitoring of viral mutations, including testing of urban wastewater. It called for increased data gathering from hospitals and local government health departments and stepped-up checks on “pneumonia of unknown causes.”
If a variant emerges in an outbreak, it is found through genetic sequencing of the virus.

The World Health Organization has expressed concern about the lack of data from China, but China has pushed back on testing requirements instituted by foreign governments, saying they aren’t science-based.
Its spokespeople have said the situation is under control and reject accusations of a lack of preparation for reopening.
The U.S. is requiring a negative test result for travelers from China within 48 hours of departure.

NFL suspends Broncos’ Randy Gregory, Rams’ Oday Aboushi for postgame altercation after Christmas Day game
The NFL announced Monday that Denver Broncos outside linebacker Randy Gregory and Los Angeles Rams offensive lineman Oday Aboushi have been suspended one game without pay for their roles in a postgame fight after Sunday’s game. The altercation occurred as players met to exchange handshakes after the Rams’ 51-14 win at SoFi Stadium. Both players can appeal and Gregory has announced he will be appealing.
Here is a look at what went down after the Week 16 game:
It looked like Gregory hit Aboushi in the helmet, appearing to upset Aboushi and causing him to retaliate with a shove. They were then separated.
Afterwards, Gregory admitted to hitting Aboushi. “If you want to know if I hit him in the mouth, I did,” he said (via 9News). And I got one back.”
On Monday evening, Gregory released a statement apologizing for his actions (via NFL Media):
“Dear Broncos country, I would like to thank my amazing teammates, staff, and fans who have supported me throughout this frustrating season. I would like to take this opportunity to sincerely apologize for my actions yesterday. The game was full of emotion and disappointment, and was not a reflection of my character. My goal is to finish out this season strong, play with pride and be part of the solution and not the problem going forward. Thank you.”
NFL VP of football operations Jon Runyan wrote a letter to Gregory and Aboushi warning them of the injury their actions could have caused and explaining how it is not in line with what is expected of them from the league.
“As you were walking toward a group of teammates, coaches, and media, you both stopped and swung at each other’s head and/or neck,” the letter stated (via NFL.com). “Your aggressive conduct could have caused serious injury and clearly does not reflect the high standards of sportsmanship expected of a professional.”
If the players do appeal and win that appeal, they will be eligible to return to their respective teams on Monday, Jan. 2. The Broncos next play the Kansas City Chiefs on Jan. 1, while the Rams take on the Los Angeles Chargers on the same day.

Tesla suspends production at Shanghai plant
SHANGHAI, Dec 24 (Reuters) – Tesla suspended production at its Shanghai plant on Saturday, according to an internal notice and two people with knowledge of the matter, bringing ahead a previous plan to pause most work at the plant in the last week of December.
The U.S. automaker cancelled the morning shift and told all workers at its most productive manufacturing hub they could start their break, said the people and the notice seen by Reuters. The company did not give a reason.
Reuters reported earlier this month that the electric car giant planned to suspend Model Y production at the plant from Dec. 25 to Jan. 1.
The suspension comes among a rising wave of infections after China eased its zero-COVID policy earlier this month, an abrupt move welcomed by businesses and the public but heavily disrupting business operations in the short term.
One of the people said workers at Tesla and its suppliers have also been falling sick as part of this wave, posing challenges to operations in the past week.
Tesla is also grappling with elevated inventory levels as its second largest market braces for a downturn.
The Shanghai plant has been focused on making models for export in the last week, the person added.
A media representative at Tesla China did not immediately respond to request for comment.
The plant’s suspension of Model Y assembly at the end of the month would be part of a cut in planned production of about 30% in the month for the model, Tesla’s best-selling model, at the Shanghai factory, Reuters had reported.
The Shanghai factory, the most important manufacturing hub for Elon Musk’s electric vehicle company, kept normal operations during the last week of December last year.
It has not been an established practice for the plant to shut down for a year-end holiday.
