Li Ting said that she returned to Beijing Sport University from Xianyou County on September 4. After the outbreak in Putian was reported, she was quarantined from September 12 (last Sunday). The isolated hotel is next to the school. “We pack our things and wear masks to the school door. We will be quarantined for 21 days.” She said that all those who returned to the school from Xianyou County were required to be quarantined for three weeks.

Li Ting said that about 40 people in her group said they were quarantined, including those in the Putian area, as well as those in Xiamen and Quanzhou. People in areas outside of Xianyou County were required to quarantine for 14 days.

Li Ting said that she is more worried about her family. Basically, people in my hometown have done 5 to 10 nucleic acid tests. Do it every other day or two. The child is also asked to do it.

Li Ting introduced that her father was a cadre in the town. Report up on the local situation every day. One of her brothers is a local volunteer. The main task is the coordination of materials, delivering meals or delivering anti-epidemic items such as masks every day. Because of the shortage of manpower, the daily workload is very large.

Li Ting said that the epidemic spread in an elementary school at the beginning. People in the village where this elementary school is located are all required to be isolated, and there are at least thousands of people in total. Seals are posted in some places. The government has also installed cameras in front of every household to monitor whether the villagers are going out.

Li Ting believes that the earliest infected persons in this wave of the epidemic were the students and their parents of the above-mentioned elementary schools, which later spread to the village where the school is located. “A cousin of mine happens to live in this village. She and her husband are both isolated.”

“The quarantined people in Fengting Town are basically taken to schools, factories or hotels in different areas of Putian City.” Li Ting said, “I have a relative in the local area and are quarantined in a school.” She said , The conditions of some isolation points are very poor, and the government’s management is not in place.

Li Ting revealed that the local schools have suspended classes except for the third year of high school.

Li Ting also said that people in Fengting Town who are isolated at home are not allowed to go out. Volunteers give them daily necessities. Many local young people are working in other places, and now they can’t go back if they want to go back. Every intersection in the area is guarded by staff, which means that people are not allowed to pass freely.

Li Ting pointed out that the number of confirmed cases in Putian has skyrocketed, but the local government’s response to the epidemic has been slow.

On the Internet, many netizens complained about the Putian authorities’ ineffective fight against the epidemic, “It’s too bad!”

Netizens “eating round and round” posted on Weibo, “Fengting Town is 6 kilometers away from my home. It is a high-risk area, where there are my colleagues’ relatives. The situation there is really difficult. The countryside is all left behind. The elderly, children, and young adults are working in other places. At this time, there is a serious shortage of manpower, and they encounter incompetent leaders. It is really chaotic. The isolation of Putou Village did not arrange the isolation location in advance, and the bus driver was pulling a car with people Turning around, there is no school hotel willing to accept it. This scene seems familiar, not last year in Wuhan! History repeats itself again, and the equipment and materials in the countryside can’t keep up. Seeing everyone in the circle of friends ask for help, I feel distressed. Pain, anger, and powerless.” “Where has such a large-scale infection occurred in rural areas? The rural population is densely populated, conditions and resources are backward, most of them are elderly and children, and labor is insufficient. It is too difficult!”

Another post of “Eating Round Billowing Billowing” stated, “I have posted several Putou Elementary School messages before, but they have all been blocked and banned from being forwarded. They are too difficult.”

“Stealing the little red flower in October” said, “I can only take care of myself, I feel really bad!”

Netizens “w stars will shine” said, “I’m really mad. The residents of Fengting Township are not in their hometown now. I heard that everyone (residents) went to quarantine last night and thought that the government finally took action, but I heard that (Resident) was sent back again!”
