Residents of Shanghai have been going online to air complaints about the government’s “zero-COVID” strategy that has kept many of them locked up in their residences for a month.
They have gone onto WeChat notes and Weibo, China’s version of Twitter, to say they are trapped inside, facing lack of food, transportation, and access to medical care. Little dissent is tolerated in China, and the complaints are being quickly taken down by government censors, though copies continue to circulate on other social media platforms.
While other countries are trying to live with and manage COVID while opening up their economies, China has employed a “zero-COVID” strategy, which involves doubling down with tools like contact tracing, mass testing and lockdowns to get COVID-19 numbers down to zero. On Friday, authorities said case counts and COVID deaths are dropping overall and that about half of the city’s population now lives in low-risk areas and can leave their homes,But many people remain under lockdown.
