Veronica thought she did everything properly while holding on to all the Covid-19 locking rules in the City of China Shanghai.After the whole city was closed on April 1, his family consisting of four people carefully following the government’s orders to stay at home, stepping out the front door only for compulsory PCR testing.
When the sidewalks are a little relaxed in mid -April, let the population walk inside their compounds, Veronica and his neighbors all wear masks.For weeks, their housing is free from Covid.But at the end of April, after what Veronica said was the 12th PCR test, he, another family member, and several neighbors were tested positively.
“I don’t know how we caught him,” said Veronica, who refused to give her full name, quoting privacy.The building was declared “sealed”. He, his family and others who were positively tested were sent to quarantine. Everyone was ordered back into the room for 14 days.
“I follow all the rules,” said Veronica from the quarantine center where he and his family were locked up with hundreds of people in the vast hall.Veronica is among thousands who have captured Covid in compounds that have been free from Coronavirus and sealed for weeks.
These cases underline how difficult it is to stop the spread of Omicron variants which are highly transmitted when China holds fast to its zero-ongid policy, capturing the locking cycle, as well as confusion, sadness and anger.
Between April 21 and May 2, residents in 4,836 different addresses found themselves in the same situation, with infection emerged after weeks in Clear, according to Reuters’ examination of Shanghai’s government data.
On April 30 alone, 471 addresses were recorded to have found at least one case, after not registering at all in the previous 29 days. The population at the address given varies from a handful to hundreds. Shanghai’s locking steps are very tight, especially during the first two weeks of April, with residents allowed to get out of compounds only for extraordinary reasons, such as medical emergencies. Many are not even allowed to get out of their front door to hang out with neighbors.
The number of Shanghai daily cases has fallen for six consecutive days but thousands of new people are still found every day encouraging speculation about how Covid spreads, debate about the policy policy “Zero-Covid” and fear of infection.
Work, arrive at a point Looking for answers, many residents point to queue for all PCR tests that often occur, or sending food and other items, all of which depend on volunteers, property management staff, and couriers.Some people even began to reject the PCR test, bring punishment for failure to comply.
The Shanghai government, requesting a comment, referring to his remarks on April 14 by the City Health Officer Wu Huanyu, who said that infection through supply distribution could not be ruled out, among other possibilities.Health experts say the spread spread without stopping refers to China’s difficulty in holding fast to his zero-covid goal.
“Their zero covid policy works at a point but then they will continue to be beaten, especially when they have not used that time to get high scope of their most vulnerable population,” said Paul Hunter, professor of medical at East Anglia University, referring to the vaccination level China is relatively low compared to other places.Jaya Dantas, a public health expert at the Curtin School of Population Health in Australia, said the Chinese approach has come at a high cost, and to delete transmission will take full time for months.”They have been effective but very hard with constant testing which is a resource, labor and intensive financially. The impact of mental health on the population is also significant,” he said.
Locking in Shanghai and Dozens of other cities have triggered a rare public performance about dissatisfaction, especially because of the continuous appearance of infection that is relatively slightly extending the prison of millions of people
