Experts fear that lunar new year could intensify China’s Covid outbreak as people head home for the holidays.

Authorities on Saturday said nearly 60,000 people with Covid had died in hospitals between 8 December and 12 January, in the wake of the country abruptly scrapping its zero-Covid policy in early December.

We would like to hear from people in China about how they have been affected by Covid since the change in policy. Have you or a loved one contracted coronavirus? What was your experience? What do you think about the situation?

If you’ve lost someone to Covid, would you like to write a tribute – or tell us something about them and what they meant to you.
