This is basically a repeat of the official statements from the Chinese government, not an article based on
reliable, independent sources. I don't think a timeline for this region can be made based on such sources though, as the Chinese government tends to be rather controlling. But it is better not to have an article, than to function as the mouthpiece of a government.

Delete - I'm a bit conflicted as I think it would be interesting to see a timeline of the official events as described. On the other hand, I agree with the nom that there is doubt as to the reliability of official Chinese sources on this topic, and the page needs a large amount of work and clean-up to even meet the objectives it has set itself. It feels like there's also an element of
WP:OR and
WP:SYNTH so for all those reasons I think it is better off being ditched.

Merge the number of cases to
COVID-19 pandemic in Zhejiang. This article textual content is basically only the government reported case numbers, which can and should be reported in a table. The rest of the content (the videos) is just minor local news fluff which is not appropriate.

Hello, everybody. This is the article creator. These articles should been put on Wikipedia 2 or 3 years ago by other people, but have not appeared in English until I did so since January of this year. Please talk to users Fixer88 and Rethliopuks, who are more knowledgeable on this topic and have written on it since the first year of the pandemic. I would like to start working on other topics when I finish my part .
