According to the official notification, from January 6, Hebei high-speed traffic control, Shijiazhuang passenger terminal and airport shuttle temporarily suspended, a number of airlines also canceled the airport flight Shijiazhuang airport. The following day, Shijiazhuang announced that all vehicles and personnel in the city are not allowed to leave the city, and the entire district of the high-risk area of Gaocheng District is not allowed to leave the district.

A number of students staying in Shi said, because there is nowhere to go, can only pay for their own hotel, but the daily cost of hundreds of yuan has become a burden. At the same time, from the field back to the stone college students, also face the problem of going home difficult. After the school holiday is not allowed to stay in school, to Shijiazhuang and can not be transferred, many students can only borrow around, or find another way.

Stranded in Shijiazhuang for some reason:** nine days cost two thousand dollars**

On January 10, a video of Shijiazhuang vacationing college students stranded on the streets because of the epidemic hit the microblogging hot search. According to reports, a volunteer returning home late at night met several college students on the street, these students could not get a car to go home, and the school did not take them in, there was nowhere to go to get stuck on the street. After confirming that the students’ nucleic acid test results were okay, the volunteers arranged for them to live.

After the video was forwarded, many netizens questioned why the students were stranded on the streets and why the school would not let them live. The reporter learned that since late December, many universities in Shijiazhuang have been on vacation, the late release of Hebei Medical University, also from January 5 to implement the closure of the school management.

Many college students said that they were stranded in Shijiazhuang for personal reasons. Li Qing (a pseudonym), a sophomore, said he stayed in Shijiazhuang for two more days after the school holiday on the 3rd, which coincided with the closure of the city, and he became the only student in his class who could not go home.

Xiao Shi, a senior student whose family is in Chengde, said more than 10 students from his school were stranded in Shi. “School holiday on December 25, New Year’s Day began to clear the school, but some students because of the test teaching qualifications, or want to play two days in the surrounding area, so did not get out of the go. “

Xiao Shi stranded then because of the internship. He is currently in Shijiazhuang a unit internship, originally to the end of January 20 this year. 5 January after learning that the city may be closed, he bought a ticket home the next morning, but went out only to find that the city has been unable to take a cab, the train has also been temporarily suspended.

Determined that they could not go home, Li Qing and Xiaoshi both took the initiative to report their personal situation to the school and isolated themselves in the hotel.

Since January 3, Li Qing has changed three hotels one after another, all of which have been temporarily requisitioned as centralized isolation sites. Currently, the hotel he is in is rented by an educational institution, where he remains the only casual guest, with a nightly accommodation price of 190 yuan.

Commodity price increases, three meals difficult to buy, high hotel costs, this is the biggest problem faced by students. Xiaoshi told reporters that according to the usual price level, a whole fried chicken is about 20 yuan, after being isolated, he ordered a mouthful of chicken, just a few pieces of chicken breast and a rice, it cost 60 yuan.

Li Qing calculated that in the past nine days, he spent about 2,000 yuan on food and accommodation. After the online ordering service closed, he and the hotel receptionist coordinated to find two restaurants that are still delivering food, compared to the previous, the meal less slightly up in price, but it is not easy to have food to eat.

In order to exchange news, Xiaoshi and other stranded in the stone college students pulled a group. At present, and his situation similar to the students are not a few. “The group constantly has students complaining, but also blame the school is not responsible, but now the school is also impossible to re-admit the hotel students back. “

It is understood that these students have turned to the street office, the mayor’s hotline, etc., the response is always “recommended to isolate themselves”. “Now certainly can not get out, but there seems to be no good way, just hope that the epidemic passed, and then we can also go home early. “Xiao Shi said.

Difficult to return to Shi in the field: some students walk 20 kilometers home

At the same time, there are many foreign universities face the problem of difficult to return home. A number of students said that because their homes are not in the city, even if they return to Shijiazhuang, they may also be stranded because of the traffic blockade.

Before that, in addition to the students who took the initiative to spend the New Year outside, many students have changed their itinerary. Chen Chen (a pseudonym) of a university in Lanzhou said that the school had previously issued a notice asking all students to leave school before January 12, and recently learned that traffic around Shijiazhuang has been blocked and may not be able to return home, she returned the ticket home. Considering that there were many other similar students, the school eventually agreed that they would stay in school.

There are also students who are unable to stay in school and choose to rent a room around the school or stay at a classmate’s house. A college student posted on a social media platform that her classmates were forced to get off the bus after arriving in Handan, and “the hotel did not allow them to stay when they saw their ID cards showing Shijiazhuang, and they wandered alone in Handan for three days. “

On January 10, Zhang Bin (a pseudonym), a student from Luquan district, arrived at the high-speed railway station by train from Tangshan and walked 20 kilometers with his luggage because all public transportation was stopped. His sister told reporters that a courier boy carried him a distance, otherwise five hours would not reach home. Photos show that Zhang Bin’s luggage wheels have fallen off, the bottom was also worn out of the hole.

Home in Shijiazhuang Jinzhou Wuhan college student Li Ding (a pseudonym) arrived in Shijiazhuang on January 8, still living in a hotel near the station.

Li Ding told reporters that the school previously required all students to leave school, she booked a train ticket back to Shijiazhuang at 8 p.m. on January 7, “thinking of hurrying home, but did not expect to arrive at the station before receiving the news that Shijiazhuang closed. “

At 18:00 that night, Shijiazhuang officials released the news that all vehicles and personnel in the city are not out of the city, the high-risk area Liao Cheng District personnel are not leaving the region, the medium-risk area personnel strictly managed, while reducing the flow of people within the control.

Li Ding thought home in Shijiazhuang suburban county, how can also go home. But at 3:00 a.m. on the 8th, his family told Li Ding that the intersection from Shijiazhuang to his home had been closed, and they couldn’t go out. In order to avoid having no place to go or being isolated, she was advised to make up a ticket to Beijing to stay with relatives first.

However, the steward told her she could not make up the ticket, “they said there is no way, even if the patch to Beijing there is no way out of the station. “

But early on the 8th, the train station prevention staff told them again that they could make a transfer without leaving the station after getting off the train. “Hearing this, a moment of confusion. “

Li Ding had no other choice but to share a hotel with strange female students, and took the initiative to contact the epidemic prevention department for nucleic acid testing. Two days later, the hotel was also requisitioned as a quarantine site, they had to drag their luggage to find a room again, “a group of people dragging their luggage just to be blown out, it’s really quite uncomfortable. “

On January 12, Li Ding again turned to the police and was told that they could only send students within the third ring, “after hearing that we were staying in a hotel, the police suggested that we quarantine until the epidemic eases. “

At present, Li Ding still lives in the hotel, but she still hopes to go home as soon as possible. Plus always changing hotels, she worries about the increased risk of infection.

Followed by a large number of students returning home

Li Ding’s situation has also been brought to the attention of some volunteers. Zhu, who has been involved in transporting college students home, told reporters that the risk of returning to the stone is still greater, and if the school has arrangements to stay in school, students are advised not to return. But students who are not allowed to stay in school have nowhere to go and have no choice but to come back.

“Now the direct train to Shijiazhuang canceled, but passing trains are stopped. Buy on the train tickets, as long as there is no notice of refund, are allowed to get off. “Mr. Zhu said that students can leave the station when they arrive, as long as they provide proof of a negative nucleic acid test within 72 hours, a green health code and a normal body temperature.

Mr. Zhu’s team of volunteers has been transporting college students home since Jan. 9. At that time, there was no public transportation in the city, and many students were stranded on the street after getting off the bus. After seeing the news from the Internet, team initiator Du Shaowei took the initiative to contact and pick up college students at the station. The number of helpers increased and more volunteers joined the team.

Du Shaowei mentioned that students need a certificate of acceptance from the village (neighborhood) committee to return home after arriving in Shijiazhuang. For college students in the city, they can be sent directly to the entrance of the district, but students outside the city, can only be sent to the nearest junction, and then the parents with a pass to come to meet.

After transporting more than 40 college students, the traffic control in Shijiazhuang became stricter and stricter from January 10, and the transport work had to be suspended.

The flow of students asking for help still continues. Mr. Zhu said that in just two days, there are more than 2,000 parents contacted for help, “pulled five WeChat group, are now full, the daily statistics information statistics to vomit, followed by many parents for help, but the ability is really limited, we can not do anything “.

After the police set up a rescue station, students out of the station can go to the train station West Square police station for help. But many parents and students said that the current police rescue team’s capacity is still limited, urban college students are advised to walk home, students outside the city can likewise only be sent to the third ring near.

“The government should issue a unified management policy, such as requiring counties and districts to set up reception points, or let each community with a volunteer car to pick up children, which can spread the capacity, but also to ensure that children go home early. “I’m sorry,” said Mr. Zhu.

“Students such as can not return home in time, no one actively concerned about where to go, and do not know where they are staying, the equivalent or free flow in the city, which is contrary to the requirements of our home isolation”, Mr. Zhu believes that the students stranded in Shijiazhuang, the official did not form a closed-loop management, which in fact there is a great risk of infection.

On the evening of January 12, Mr. Zhu told reporters that they are contacting the traffic control department, hoping to join the police rescue team to help transport the student team. He said that the drivers of the volunteer team have a negative nucleic acid test certificate, the vehicle is also fully stocked with disinfection items, will cooperate with every step of the epidemic prevention requirements, “after the government supporting measures out, we will also suspend services as required, and seek to join the volunteer organizations under the government system to continue to work . “

Also of concern is that there is no consistency in what communities say about how to quarantine college students after they return home. Some parents said their community requires access with a 24-hour nucleic acid test report, but others said the community does not agree with the students’ return, and even if they return, they need to be quarantined separately.

One parent said that there is a large number of students returning home subsequently, “government departments should have a unified normative requirements. “
