The situation in China is getting worse day by day due to Corona. Here more than 27 provinces have come under the grip of Corona epidemic. In the last 24 hours, 16 thousand 412 new cases of corona have been confirmed in the country. Which is the highest since the peak of the first wave about two years ago. A record 8 thousand 581 cases have been registered in Shanghai in a day. A very dangerous Omicron variant has spread in many provinces of the country, due to which there is an atmosphere of panic among the people. The situation has become so serious that the Chinese administration has imposed a lockdown in the country's financial capital Shanghai. Not only this, strict restrictions have been implemented here for corona examination of more than two crore citizens. Let us tell you that on March 28, a two-phase lockdown started in the city. During this time people are being asked to stay at home. Legal action is being taken against those who step out. Not only this, economic activities in the city have come to a complete standstill. The supply of goods exported abroad has been stopped.

Hospitals filled with patients in Shanghai, China

The situation has become so bad that there is no place left in any hospital in Shanghai to admit corona infected patients. Despite this, China claims that no one has died of corona infection in Shanghai so far.

Army also entered the field to defeat Corona

China has launched a major campaign of investigation since Monday. Army personnel and doctors have been fielded in large numbers for investigation. More than 2000 medical workers of China's army People's Liberation Army (PLA) were sent to Shanghai on Sunday to help the civil administration in the Corona investigation there. Media reports said that doctors and medical workers from many provinces including Jiangsu, Jijiang and Beijing have also been sent there. In this way, a team of more than 10 thousand people is involved in the investigation campaign.

Lockdown in two phases

A two-phase lockdown was carried out in Shanghai last Monday. In this, all the people have been asked to remain imprisoned in their homes. On Sunday, 8,581 asymptomatic and 425 asymptomatic cases were found here. During the investigation campaign, nucleic acid test of the residents is being done. At the same time, citizens have also been asked for antigen test at their level. According to global norms, the wave of Korana in Shanghai is not very fast, but it is important in terms of the manner in which China controls the epidemic by taking steps of Korana testing, tracing and quarantine. China has strict quarantine rules, under which all infected patients and people who came in contact with them are separated from other people.

Patients sent there are facing problems due to crowding, lack of cleanliness and lack of food and essential medicines at the quarantine centers. On the other hand, Chinese President Xi Jinping has instructed to control the epidemic swiftly and strictly.
