[Compiled/Observer Network Tong Li] After opening a party in Wuhan Water Park caused many foreign netizens to discuss, foreign media focused on Wuhan’s nightlife.
Interestingly, some people think that Wuhan’s rich nightlife is a sign of success in fighting the epidemic, and reflect on the shortcomings of their own country; However, some people are sour. As always, they throw away the pot of China, not only hiding that Wuhan people have returned to normal life, but also speculating whether they have all been "vaccinated" or realized "group immunity" …
According to a report by Reuters on December 17th, Zhang Qiong, who was gathering with friends, wiped the birthday cake from his face in a crowded beer shop. She is 29 years old and "feels reborn after the COVID-19 epidemic and the unsealing".

Some friends who attended the party went outside and played a game of toy guns and balloons at roadside stalls.
After Wuhan was unsealed for half a year, the nightlife in this city has been active again. At night, many young people will go out to eat snacks for entertainment.
After experiencing one of the strictest city closure measures in the world, Wuhan has not reported any new local cases since May 10th.
Students, musicians, artists and young office workers are the backbone of wuhan nightlife. They told the story of staying at home for months, and many of them took this opportunity to prepare for the urban recovery.
For example, Wang Xinghao, the lead singer of a local rock band, said, "Some of my new music is related to the epidemic period." One of the new songs was inspired by the three months he lived close to his mother.
Yi Yi, a rock music enthusiast, said after watching the performance: "Now everyone is out to eat and have fun. I don’t think there were so many people before the epidemic (here). "
The nightlife economy here has recovered after being hit hard, showing the lifestyle in the post-epidemic era. Many people hope that this lifestyle will become a reality in 2021 after the global promotion of COVID-19 vaccine.
At the end of the article, Zhang Qiong said, "I really want to cherish this time, because you never know when life will end, so let every day be happy and meaningful."
It is worth noting that Reuters posted this article on Facebook and Twitter, and the discussion was more heated than other articles.
The most liked comment on Facebook wrote, "This is what success looks like. Sadly, Trump prevented us from achieving such success. And all those ‘(covidiot idiots’. "
However, some people surmised that "they are celebrating the destruction of the world we used to know."
He declared that "I can’t imagine anything more unpleasant than hearing about the recovery of wuhan nightlife" and threw the pot of his country’s failure to fight the epidemic to China.
Some people are so imaginative that they can draw a conclusion from China’s success in fighting the epidemic and returning to normal life that "China obviously has a vaccine that has not been shared with other countries, or there is a virus that can be’ recycled’ in due course". Silently, there are people who praise this conspiracy theory.
So are all the Wuhan people "vaccinated" or "immunized in groups"?
"What did I miss? Who can explain to me why Wuhan can return to normal? Do they have a vaccine? Or did you achieve group immunity? What the hell happened? "
The answer is simple:
"They follow scientific advice, and not so many people oppose epidemic prevention measures."
