Shanghai: Dissatisfaction with corona restrictions is growing
STORY: These amateur recordings are said to have been taken in Shanghai on Thursday and document that displeasure with the strict corona restrictions in the city of millions is increasing. They show residents of the city having heated arguments with police officers in riot gear. Some of them are taken away or carried away by the police. In the video, a woman can be heard complaining that a shelter for Covid infected people has been set up very close to her block. The police have imposed a driving ban on cars. Because China is pursuing a “zero Covid strategy”, residents have also been asked not to leave their apartments and houses. Despite this, the pandemic in Shanghai is still not under control. The daily number of COVI-19 cases fell only slightly to 23,000 infections on Friday, according to the authorities.
In China, the economic and financial metropolis of Shanghai, which has been badly affected by corona infections, still does not have the outbreak under control.
