This morning and heat rising

In news today
China has halted visa issuance to citizens from Japan and Korea because these countries require Chinese citizens to undergo a covid test before arrival and to China this is most discriminatory and 'not based on science' and although it does seem discriminatory I want to laugh at these l statements because for over 3 years it was China that simply wouldn't allow anyone to enter. The zero covid policy was also not based on science but somehow they went ahead with it for 3 years and required every traveler to have not only a green code to enter which was almost impossible to get about a year ago, but also required travelers to test everyday, two days before departure and also isolate themselves in a hotel.

I mean discriminatory my ass cuz exactly a year ago, any foreign national who had to travel back to their own country was quietly banned from returning and no explanation nor advice given regarding their travel.
They just said you need a green code and there was no issuance of green code to anyone foreign to travel back despite the fact that most countries had opened and covid infections were near stable.
Students were unable to return for over 2 years. 'Based on science' !! I mean yes, now that the world has accepted and is moving on putting such restrictions are not needed but at the same time in the same breath getting a negative pcr result is not that wrong a requirement considering the plethora of impossible requirements the Chinese govt has known to put on travelers.
It's just a negative pcr, no need to be so dramatic considering the outlandish drama they've known to cause!
A lockdown!! Based on science!
Seriously.
