Reply to comment by me_and_myself_and_i in China's widening COVID curbs trigger public pushback by reuters
I think this is at the heart of the issue. The Chinese government knows that the health care system cannot handle COVID surges. Even with the camps and ancillary facilities, it wouldn’t be able to handle a “back to normal” approach.
China has billions of citizens in cities way more dense than the USA. Imagine what would happen if ICUs started to fill up…

Nothing too bad will happen. Lots of very dense cities from Karachi to Abuja to Managua opened up and stayed open without too much issues. There's no reason to think otherwise for china.
