Xi'an: Cries for help and food in quarantined Chinese city
BBC ^ | 12/21/21

Posted on 12/31/2021 2:46:35 AM PST by EBH

Initially, the restrictions had allowed one person per household to venture out once every two days to buy food and other basic supplies.

But the rules were tightened on Monday - banning residents from leaving at all except to get tested for Covid-19.

In past days, people have taken to the Weibo social media platform to call for help with getting food and other essentials. Many said they hadn't received their government supplies yet.

"I heard other districts are gradually getting supplies, but I didn't get anything. My compound bans us from going out. I ordered some groceries online four days ago, but no sign of getting it at all. I haven't been able to get any vegetables for days," read one comment posted on Friday.

Another person said: "The allocation is so uneven. The district I'm based in hasn't got anything. We are told to group up and order together. The price is very high as well."

One video taken this week which has been circulating online shows residents in a Xi'an compound arguing heatedly with police over the lack of food.

A man tells authorities that his family has run out of food, and a woman can be heard saying: "We've been locked down for 13 days. Resident's basic life can't be sustained. We queued for three to four hours [to buy vegetables]. But they don't allow it to be sold anymore."

The problem with starving to death in China is that even if you manage to eat something, you’ll just be starving to death again 30 minutes later.

Lord God:

Send the ordinary Chinese people food who need it, and the Gospel and the Word of God, that they may be saved through Your Son's work. In Jesus’ Name, amen.

I cannot even imagine a country where they can shut you up in your house...house arrest or as we witnessed 2 years ago about now...welding you into your apartment.

Zero Covid policy

New Brunswick is first Canadian province to allow ban of unvaxxed from grocery stores
mustreadalaska ^ | Dec. 13, 2021 | Suzanne Downing

Posted on 12/13/2021, 1:28:58 PM by bgill

The Canadian federal government has already banned unvaccinated people from domestic or international air or train travel, a rule that went into effect Nov. 30.

Facebook banned news and videos of protests of the development, saying it was misinformation. Those videos showed up on Tik Tok, however.

Politifact, owned by the nonprofit Poynter Institute, disputes the assertion that people are being prevented from buying groceries in New Brunswick.

But Must Read Alaska’s Fact Check Desk found the New Brunswick government document that allows stores to discriminate against those who haven’t taken the shot. To date, one of the two major grocers in New Brunswick is requiring a vaccination passport.

Inch by inch.

You all know very well which voting precincts here in the US will get their government supplies and which ones won’t.

It won’t be delivered, read the article. She ordered 4 days ago. Delivery people won’t go into the area and get trapped there too.

They are dependent on the government to do it. In a city of 13 million people.

— From the BBC article: “The country, where the virus was first recorded, has now confirmed more than 131,300 cases and 5,699 deaths, according to the latest figures from the World Health Organization.”

Over two years. Remember the few videos from China of a man collapsing on the street two tears ago which in part ignited the worldwide fear pandemic?

Xi'an’s population is 5.4 million.

And yet, CovidWorld's “official” message remains FEAR and LOCKDOWN:

Data as of 29 December 2021

https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/region/china

( 4,849 reported and “official” deaths in China / 1,439,323,776 total population ) x 100 = 0.00337 %

Seems some many “official” folks are lying massively. Zero COVID policy? It's almost as if the Communist Chinese want us to follow their example....

Starving after 13 days. Pinging China’s enemies. Right there is China’s weak link.

Our weak link, aside from idiots running DC, is our dependence on imports.

Ontario already tried banning the unvaxxed from grocery shopping. Heck, you can’t sing and dance on your balcony.
