2,719 new daily coronavirus cases were reported in China today.  This marks the largest amount reported since April 29th.  As we have continued to stress, the current surge has been showing no signs of abating and no significant reopening has been likely to occur in the very near term.  The surge continues to hold back the Chinese economy to some extent, and this week videos of violence and clashes due to current coronavirus policies have also been making their way out of the country.
