Residents line up for nucleic acid testing in the Shijiazhuang community on the 6th as the outbreak resumes in China’s Hebei province.
The epidemic has resurfaced in China’s Hebei province, where college students on early vacation are unable to return home or to school and are stuck in the streets unable to call a taxi. The situation of the Shijiazhuang epidemic reminded many of Wuhan early last year, with netizens calling for “no discrimination against Hebeians.
According to a video circulating online, volunteer Ms. Yuan received a call for help late at night on her way home from driving in Shijiazhuang, Hebei Province, saying that several college students on vacation were stranded on the streets. Due to the epidemic prevention and control, the students could not go back to school or home. Although they contacted a hotel, they could not call a car, and they could not even try to ride a shared bike through the App by scanning the code. After confirming that they all had proof of nucleic acid testing, Ms. Yuan sent them to the hotel.
The video was forwarded by many online media, sparking heated debate among netizens who questioned “which school is this” and “universities can’t make one size fits all”.
According to reports, Hebei University announced an emergency early holiday on the 5th, followed by a number of schools. According to a message released by Hebei University on the evening of the 6th, the university completed the return escort of its students in a safe and orderly manner on the 5th and 6th.
The Communist Party’s official media reported more positive news about the epidemic in Hebei, but on social media microblogs or WeChat, a different phenomenon could be seen, with some netizens calling for “no discrimination against Hebei people”.
Henan Nanyang posted a video of a driver from Hebei who was stranded on the road, unable to buy rice or fill up with gas, crying: “We are not sold rice, we are not given gas, and we are not allowed to walk on the road, so what can we do?
The microblogging account “sociologist Hu Shunan” posted that “people from Shijiazhuang and Xingtai are repeatedly obstructed and discriminated against when passing through foreign countries. The article said that what happened to the people of Wuhan was once again staged on the people of Hebei.
