[Frontline interviews]Fuyang people cry: people’s hearts are scarier than viruses | Shanghai | Discrimination

[The Epoch Times, July 8, 2022](The Epoch Times reporters Gao Miao and Gu Xiaohua interviewed and reported) “The virus is not so scary. What is scary is people’s hearts.” People were discriminated against, driven and accused everywhere, so that she couldn’t sleep all night after each nucleic acid test until the results came out. Repeated “recovery” caused a lot of pressure on her psychology and life.

Wang Kun (pseudonym) is 26 years old this year. His hometown is in Yunnan. A few years ago, he and his husband went to a construction site in Shanghai to work. At the beginning of this year, they brought their 2-year-old daughter to Shanghai, and the family of three lived in a container at the construction site.

On April 7, Wang Kun and his daughter were notified that the results were positive after the antigen test at the construction site. At that time, the confirmed cases at the construction site were not taken away from the isolation immediately. They did not start to take away the isolation until around April 20, resulting in more than 400 people in the entire construction site. Only more than a hundred people are fine, and the rest are all sunny. Wang Kun’s husband was also diagnosed shortly after.

Wang Kun said that after the whole family was infected, they basically did not go out, and lay at home every day. Her husband and daughter turned negative during the nucleic acid test on April 17. She was taken away for isolation on April 21 due to her serious condition. After two negative nucleic acid tests in the cabin, she returned to the construction site on the 28th.

But since then, Wang Kun has repeatedly “returned Yang”, entering and leaving the cabin several times. After the nucleic acid test was positive on June 30, he was directly sent to the Jinshan Public Health Clinical Center for isolation.

She said, “I had doubts about the accuracy of the nucleic acid test, because the antigen was always negative, but the nucleic acid was always positive.” When the second test was positive, “My husband rode a battery and drove me outside to do nucleic acid sampling, but in Before the results came out, I was forced to enter the cabin, and the test result came out negative at 12 o’clock that night. But it was useless after I entered the cabin.”

When I tested positive for the third time, “I quarreled with them, and I asked them to come and review me once. But the company was afraid of being implicated and forced me to go to the square cabin. They didn’t give me a review, so they pulled me into the square. cabin.”

“(June 30) I took a lung film after I arrived at the Jinshan Public Health Clinical Center. The doctor said there was no problem. I asked the doctor why I had been recovering from Yang for several months, and the doctor said he didn’t know the reason.”

Repeated Fuyang was discriminated against

Due to the strict prevention and control measures adopted by the CCP authorities, one person was positive, and the residents of the entire building had to be taken away and quarantined. Wang Kun said, “Shanghai is very discriminatory towards people who work in Yangguo. Like another construction site of our company in Putuo, the people who work in Yangguo simply don’t want them and let you go back to your hometown. Our construction site in Baoshan is a little loose because it’s in the suburbs. One point, the person who has passed Yang will let you go to work.” But because she had returned to Yang many times, she was still kicked out of the container by the company.

“The container we lived in was rented by us, but the general contractor on the construction site said that if I lived there, I would not allow my husband to go to work.” Wang Kun said.

Later, Wang Kun’s family found a house shared by five families in Jiading and moved out of the construction site. After moving to the group rental house, she returned to the sun on June 30. In order to take care of her daughter, she asked the neighborhood committee to apply for home isolation at home. After learning that Wang Kun had returned to Yang many times, the neighborhood committee rejected her application and ordered her husband and child (who had turned negative) to go to the hotel for isolation.

A few days after Wang Kun’s family was taken away for isolation, Wang Kun’s husband received a call from the landlord on July 4, saying that the neighbors found the landlord together and asked her husband to move out immediately after the isolation.

“I don’t know what to do. My husband can’t go to work with his daughter, and now he has nowhere to live. We didn’t earn any money this year, and the migrant workers didn’t get paid during the quarantine period. We rented that house and paid a deposit. The 1,700 yuan is not necessarily returned to me. The landlord blames me for saying that because of my business, the decoration of his house has to be demolished, and he has lost a lot of money.” Wang Kun cried and said, “We moved here because there are All four neighbors went to quarantine. Even affecting the community, they are blaming me.”

“We have a group that said that I should not go to rent a group room, and said a lot. A neighbor’s wife said that I caused her husband to quarantine, and let us move out after the quarantine.”

She said, “Actually, they don’t tell me that, and I’m also looking for a house. I want to rent a house in the countryside, so that it won’t affect others, but I’m very sad to hear those ugly words, and I can’t sleep at one or two o’clock at night. , I don’t want to be like this. But it’s normal for people to blame you. After all, after being locked at home for so long, I finally went to work normally, and it was also affected by me. “

She said that Shanghai is not yet completely unblocked, and it still needs to do an accounting test every 72 hours, and then a large community screening (nucleic acid test for all staff) every week, and it is impossible to get out without a nucleic acid test.

“The virus is not so scary, what is scary is the human heart”

Discrimination for contracting the virus is not a new phenomenon. In early May of this year, Ms. Kong’s husband from Guangdong died while seeking medical treatment in Shanghai. Afterwards, she asked more than 40 hotels to let her stay, so she was forced to live on the streets. According to a report by China Youth Daily on May 5, some patients who have been discharged from Fangcang shelter hospitals have difficulty entering the community, and even have to live in tents on the street. Some of them are having disputes with landlords, and some are rejected by the community due to problems such as group renting and illegal construction of houses. What they felt was the incomprehension of some community residents and the faint discrimination against the positive infected people who turned negative.

Wang Kun said, “Since I have recovered from the sun many times, I basically don’t go out very much, because when I go out and see other people, I am afraid, and I feel a little socially afraid. I am afraid that if I have any problems with myself, I will hurt others, and I will stay away from others when I go out. Far away, I dare not talk to others. After the nucleic acid test, I couldn’t sleep all night, and I couldn’t even eat until the nucleic acid results came out.”

She said: “After this incident, I feel so disappointed. In fact, I don’t think the virus is so scary. It’s good to get through that period of time, but I feel that people’s hearts are too scary. When people hear you, he will be scared to death. .

“I don’t want to stay here, but my hometown in Yunnan is relatively poor and there are no factories. My husband can’t find a job and earn money when he goes back to his hometown.” But in Shanghai, “I don’t know where I can go with my children, and I don’t know whether Some people will be willing to rent a house to me. I heard that there is a town of Chedun in Songjiang, Shanghai. There are many people sleeping under the square and bridge, because they can’t find a job because they can’t find a job (can only sleep on the street). A few days ago, I was a A friend took a video for me at Chedun, and the square was really full of people.”
