Police have tightened security in major Chinese cities after a weekend of protests against pandemic measures.
                
People took to the streets to voice anger over China&#039;s zero-COVID policies. They include tough restrictions on people&#039;s movement when infections are detected. Some have spent months at home under lockdown.
                
Experts like Korogi Ichiro say it is becoming harder for Beijing to defend the rules -- especially with major public events happening abroad -- like the FIFA World Cup.
                
Korogi, a professor at the Kanda University of International Studies, said, &quot;People watching the matches must have noticed spectators not wearing masks, and cheering without social distancing. They realize COVID lockdowns are not being imposed outside China.&quot;
                
He says Chinese authorities may soon tighten controls over social media and public gatherings.
                
The US says it stands by the people of China&#039;s right to make their voices heard.
                
US National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby said, &quot;We&#039;re watching this closely, as you might expect we would. And, again, we continue to stand up and support the right of peaceful protest.&quot;
                
Despite the unrest, Beijing has defended its strategy.
                
That includes requirements for people to provide negative PCR tests - to go to the grocery store.
                
Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Zhao Lijian said, &quot;Beijing&#039;s science-based prevention and control measures have been proven effective. This is a fact witnessed by the international community. Any rights and freedoms must be exercised within the framework of the law.&quot;
                
On Monday, China confirmed 37,000 new cases nationwide. That is down from the country&#039;s all-time high of roughly 39,000, which was reported on Sunday.
