[NTD, Beijing time, July 05, 2022]On the afternoon of July 5, the Xi’an government announced that the city will implement temporary control measures for 7 days starting from the 6th, and public entertainment venues will be temporarily closed and dine-in is prohibited. This is the third city-wide blockade in Xi’an this year, and people are complaining.
In the afternoon of the same day, the press conference on epidemic prevention and control in Xi’an stated that in order to achieve “zero” as soon as possible, the city will be stationary for 7 days.
All public entertainment and leisure venues, gathering and business venues, and rural bazaars in Xi’an will be suspended for one week; catering industry will be suspended for one week; large-scale conferences, various offline training and other gathering activities are prohibited within a week.
Primary and secondary schools and kindergartens will be closed early, colleges and universities will be closed, and training institutions will be suspended for one week.
This is the third city-wide lockdown in Xi’an since this year, and the people complained: “College students are a big injustice. Whenever there is an epidemic, the school is immediately closed. Every time the school is about to be closed, the school is closed, and they haven’t gone home for several months. already.”
“When colleges and universities are on holiday, should they be closed for management? Can students return to their hometowns?” “Xi’an’s precise prevention and control is not good, it will only be one size fits all.”
On July 2, Xi’an reported the discovery of a nucleic acid-positive person, and multiple cases of infection were subsequently found.
On the 4th, Zhang Yi, an expert from the Shaanxi Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention, said that the source of the infection was not yet clear. This means that “zeroing” may be difficult to achieve in a short period of time.
In the past few days, Xi’an has launched large-scale nucleic acid screening. On July 5, citizens of Xi’an braved the heavy rain and held umbrellas to line up to make nucleic acid. Some netizens lamented: “Zhuang Shengxiao is a fan of butterflies, and nucleic acids will be ready for a few years.”
Some netizens also said bluntly: “There are more than 500 nucleic acid testing institutions in a province. Once new interest groups appear, will it be easy for them to leave the field? If they don’t leave, can the virus leave the field?”
On June 30, the official website of the Shaanxi Health and Health Commission announced that there were 498 qualified nucleic acid testing institutions in Shaanxi, and 19 institutions were ordered to rectify.
Due to the low fatality rate of the currently circulating Omicron virus, except for mainland China, almost all countries in the world have adopted a mode of coexistence with the virus. The CCP authorities insisted on clearing the quarantine and epidemic prevention measures, which seriously hurt the economy and people’s livelihood. Many mainland people expressed disgust at this, and called on the Internet to stop the clearing and endless nucleic acid testing.
Experts have revealed that the CCP’s powerful families and high-ranking officials make huge profits through nucleic acid testing. Driven by interests, such clearing, containment and epidemic prevention measures may be difficult to change.
