THE SHANGHAI FEVER: ZERO-COVID POLICY IN CHINA BEGINS TO HURT

THE SHANGHAI FEVER: LOCALS SCREAM IN DESPERATION FROM WINDOWS 

People in the financial hub are reportedly running out of food, water and other necessities, with many said to be on the brink of starvation.

Videos are doing the rounds on social media, purportedly showing the people of Shanghai complaining of lack of food and medical care. Barred from leaving their houses, they took to their balconies to scream, sing and lend voice to their anger, fears and suffering.

As Shanghai residents yelled out their frustrations from their balconies and windows, the government’s response to the outcry was “control your soul’s desire for freedom”. India Today could not independently verify these videos.

HERE IS THE VIDEO
