Distribution of total COVID-19 deaths in the United States as of August 30, 2022, by age group

China also has a long way to go in fully vaccinating the elderly, the most vulnerable age group.

Less than 60% of the 60-69 age group is fully vaccinated, with the figures even lower for those aged 70 and older.

There has been some reluctance among the elderly to have vaccines, with many worrying about side effects or in rural areas believing that they don't need vaccines as they don't live near crowded cities.

Chinese President Xi Jinping has given no indication that the zero-Covid policy will change, insisting it is "scientific and effective".

A government statement in response to the comments by the WHO said that "China's huge population means that relaxing prevention and control measures will inevitably lead to the death of a large number of elderly people".

It added that the current policy is "bringing Covid-19 under control at the minimum social cost in the shortest time possible."

China: Why is the WHO concerned about its zero-Covid strategy?
