Abstract :Following the draconian measures put in place throughout the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, a very relaxed approach has been recently adopted by Chinese health authorities in order to stop the people\'s angry protests against the \"zero Covid\" strategy. This has resulted in a dramatic surge of CoViD-19-associated hospitalizations and deaths especially among elderly patients. Based upon the above, there is concern that after three years of SARS-CoV-2 pandemic history could (at least partially) repeat itself , considering the \"global village\" we all live in!Keywords : CoViD-19, SARS-CoV-2, Variants of concern, ACE-2 viral receptor, China
