Ask HN: Have things returned to normalcy in China?

7 pointsby mailarchisabout 5 years ago
China now has less than 4000 active cases as per https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.worldometers.info&#x2F;coronavirus&#x2F;#countries<p>Have people started going back to work? Are people socializing now? Has there been a change in consumption? What has changed since the outbreak?

I&#x27;m in Shanghai.<p>Residential compounds still don&#x27;t let outsiders in (deliveries, friends etc - but not too strict). Many shops, banks, coffee shops still check the temperature. Some places also ask to show &quot;health code&quot; which is a mini-app (PWA-kind of thing in Wechat &#x2F; Alipay ecosystem) that gathers your travel info and gives you a red-yellow-green rating. Schools, most museums, parks, theaters are still closed.<p>I still cannot enter Wework because I have a personal contract. Only companies allowed, and need to fill some forms.<p>Certainly, the biggest visible change is eating out. I&#x27;m in the F&amp;B industry and we see reports of 60-75% drop in demand for eating out. Delivery is booming though.<p>The biggest news of today is closing the borders to all foreigners, and also impossible to get a hotel room if you are a foreigner, even with a valid visa.
