Lin, who plays for the Loong Lions Basketball Club, allegedly made “inappropriate remarks about quarantine hotel-related facilities”
The Shanghai news outlet The Paper reported Lin posted a video complaining about hotel workout facilities ahead of games next week in Zhuji, a city south of Shanghai in Zhejiang province.
Lin, born in California to parents from Taiwan, was the first American of Chinese or Taiwanese descent to play in the NBA. The government reported 34,980 infections found in the past 24 hours, including 30,702 with no symptoms. Xi’s government has promised to reduce the cost and disruption of controls but says it will stick with “zero COVID.” Health experts and economists expect it to stay in place at least until mid-2023 and possibly into 2024 while millions of older people are vaccinated in preparation for lifting controls that keep most visitors out of China.
Tiajjin, a port east of Beijing, said subway riders no longer need to present negative virus tests. Fuzhou on the southeast coast said people who don’t go out no longer need to be tested.
