What we went through was not the hardest; what's harder is the wisdom needed for coexisting with the virus over the long term.
Zhang Wenhong said more and more people now believe that the pandemic will not end shortly, and it may not end even in the long term. Most virologists around the world recognize it as a resident virus, and the world must learn to coexist with it.
The Nanjing outbreak reminded us once again that the virus is omnipresent. Whether we like it or not, future risks will always be there.
How the world coexists with the virus is something each country needs to answer for itself. China has previously presented an impressive answer sheet. After the Nanjing outbreak, we will surely learn even more.
The future approach chosen by China must ensure both the fate of the world community and the resumption of normal life while safeguarding the public from the fear of the virus. China should possess such wisdom.
