authorities' decision to order an 'indefinite' lockdown went viral in the West (they were quickly censored on Weibo).
Authorities counted nearly 20K cases in Shanghai alone on Wednesday,
nearly matching the number for all of China from the day before.
Residents of Shanghai are struggling to get meat, rice and other food
supplies under anti-coronavirus controls that confine most of its 25
million people in their homes, fueling frustration as the government
tries to contain a spreading outbreak.
People in China’s business
capital complain that online grocers often are sold out. Some received
government food packages of meat and vegetables for a few days. But with
no word on when they will be allowed out, anxiety is rising.
As the food shortage worsens, containers full of frozen food and
chemicals are piling up at Shanghai's biggest port as the lock down of
the city and virus testing prevents workers from getting to the docks to
pick up boxes.
