The experts have further warned that the situation is expected to get even worse as if the country fails to contain the spread, the new case rate could also rise to 3.7 million in the next 90 days.
Dead bodies are piling up in Chinese morgues and crematoriums, throwing new challenges to the healthcare workers to handle the worsening COVID condition.
The Epidemiologist has predicted that more than 60% of China and around 10% of the world's population are likely going to get infected over the next 90 days.
The sudden surge in cases comes in the backdrop after Beijing backed down over China's "zero-Covid" policy following the massive scale protests against the stringent rules and restrictions.
According to the reports, for the first time since 2019, Beijing has reported over 1,000 new cases in a day.

The cases surge was reported recently after highly mutated Omicron variant of COVID-19 was detected in some of the positive samples.
This subtype is believed to have been evolved from the BA.1.1 strain of the Omicron variant.
