I have read or heard there are anywhere between 37 to 250 million Chinese infected .
youtu.be...
Nearly 37 million people in China may have been infected with Covid-19 on a single day this week, according to estimates from the government’s top health authority, making the country’s outbreak by far the world’s largest.
As many as 248 million people, or nearly 18% of the population, likely contracted the virus in the first 20 days of December, according to minutes from an internal meeting of China’s National Health Commission held on Wednesday, confirmed with people involved in the discussions. If accurate, the infection rate would dwarf the previous daily record of about 4 million, set in January 2022.
Beijing’s swift dismantling of Covid Zero restrictions has led to the unfettered spread of the highly contagious omicron variants in a population with low levels of natural immunity.More than half the residents of Sichuan province, in China’s southwest, and the capital Beijing have been infected, according to the agency’s estimates.
Officially, China has reported only eight Covid deaths this month – a strikingly low figure given the rapid spread of the virus and the relatively low vaccine booster rates among the elderly.

Is the COViD surge in China what you are referring too?
How is it that China has had 3 years of COVID and this population is being touted as having low-level natural exposure?

BEIJING, Dec 22 (Reuters) - More than 5,000 people are probably dying each day from COVID-19 in China, health data firm Airfinity estimated, offering a dramatic contrast to official data from Beijing on the country's current outbreak.

So essentially 2019 COVID case and hospitalization surge without the deaths? The overwhelming majority of these have to be asymptomatic
FWIW the US is still rocking more serious critical COVID cases than both Japan and China, and while China's numbers are wishy-washy Japan's are not. Regardless the number is substantially lower than any crisis previous crisis period.
and in Japan the death rate in comparison to the case rate is minuscule

I dont know , some twitter source claimed that there is about 5000 deaths per day in China , i cant verify it thought.
This looks now much worse than in late 2019 and 2020 there.
One possibility is nano particle biosynthetic spike protein chimera from bat origin ( not virus but a man made bio weapon)
More info at : The Kingston Report
Basically China is also huge toxic waste /pollution dumb site, so one possibility is that we are now seeing how their health is destroyed with pollution . Breathing pollution can also cause flu-like symptoms...or toxicity in general also.
The gain of function research there ....can we ever know what they created.
Then there is Chinese covid vaccines, i dont know how many got them, but all the previous covid vaccines were failures and dangerous , long before 2019 ...maybe the vaccinated are now sick and dying ?
Somehow it dont look like regular flu in China now..

Yeeh, we dont know....that`s the same issue like was 3 Years ago, difficult to get valid information from China.
Maybe wait what Laowhy86 and SerpentZA and The China Show report, they have contacts in China .
The about-face in policy and rhetoric has been reinforced by upbeat state messaging, urging people to just get back to normal.
But Beijingers still aren't buying it. The still-empty streets and businesses of the capital show they're opting for extreme caution.
"I have to be more careful now," said Liu, a 26-year-old Beijinger who works in e-commerce. "Because no one else is going to protect me."
