So, H1N1 is still a big buzz-word in China. As such, the government and it’s agencies are constantly implementing new, illogical counter-measures. For example, B’s schools quarantine; it’s now in effect during the week, but lifted at the weekend. They’re not really quite getting the idea. Anyhow, the latest such counter-measure for me to witness was this “extra” exercise at Beitang…


Here you see students in the front courtyard of the school, filed and ranked doing their exercises to music. The illogic of this one; is the fact that it’s apparently to help fight against H1N1…so they drag them all out in -2’c to all stand next to each other. Hmmm.

Around the back of the school, there were more students…

Lot’s more students.

Finally, a video showing the ordeal. Excuse the quality, it was taken with my cell phone.
