Shanghai Releases More Information About The Virus While It Is On Lockdown

Some 6,000 more people in Shanghai were let out of the central facilities where they were being watched for the coronavirus, the government said on Wednesday, but most of China’s largest city was still in lockdown mode for the third week.

Some Rules For Shanghai People

Most people in the city of 25 million could leave their homes on Tuesday. These are some of the rules: Some people could only stay in their own neighborhoods. As for Wednesday, there were no signs that any more restrictions would be lifted. Some housing compounds, on the other hand, looked like they were still keeping their residents inside.

Despite All Precautions, Shanghai still hasn’t been able to stop the rise in cases of the omicron strain

Officials say that even though Shanghai has taken a “zero-tolerance” approach that has kept some residents in their homes for three weeks or more, the city still hasn’t been able to stop the rise in cases of the omicron strain.

A person who tests positive for Ebola or who is a close friend or family member of someone who does must stay in a quarantine facility for at least one week to keep the virus from spreading. People who live in prefabricated buildings or gymnasiums and exhibition halls must also stay in quarantine.

The city’s health department said Wednesday that 6,044 people had been allowed to leave observation centers the day before and go home, but health monitoring will still be kept upon them.

Every day, the number of new cases found in the city rose to 26,338, but only 1,189 of them were in people who didn’t show any signs. In China, there have been more than 200,000 cases of the pandemic so far. This is the country’s biggest outbreak. But the mass testing has found many people who aren’t sick, and no one has died in Shanghai.

Shortage Of Food In Shanghai After Lockdown

The lockdown has made people in Shanghai angry about running out of food and not being able to get deliveries. Censors have been very careful to remove this kind of material from social media. State-run media outlets talked about a successful campaign to provide food and other supplies and told residents that “persistence is victory.”

As China’s busiest port and the main stock market, Shanghai is also home to a lot of people. People are worried about how this lockdown will affect the economy.

Figures from Wednesday show that China’s exports rose 15.7% in March over the same month last year, but imports were flat because of coronavirus outbreaks.

It doesn’t matter that anti-virus controls in Shanghai and other industrial areas made factories cut back on production. Exports still rose to $276.1 billion.
