As the Epidemic continues to rise in Beijing‘s Daxing District, the local government’s quarantine measures have changed, as has the epidemic, and many problems have arisen during the centralized quarantine of the high-risk Tianguanyuan Ronghui neighborhood, with people complaining about the government’s measures.
Mr. Li, the owner of Tiangongyuan Rong Hui neighborhood in Daxing District, told the Epoch Times about the experience of being transferred to a centralized quarantine in his neighborhood. He expressed his disappointment with the local government.
According to mainland media reports, on the afternoon of Jan. 20, the community of Ronghui in Daxing’s Tiangongyuan Street was upgraded to a high-risk area for the outbreak, and on Jan. 24, three new local cases were confirmed in the community.
On January 23, the local government has put all owners of the three buildings in the Rong Hui community under centralized quarantine.
Mr. Li told the Epoch Times that the local government’s epidemic prevention policy is “one size fits all,” and as long as there is a confirmed case in a building, the entire building must be quarantined, regardless of whether it is a close contact.
In the early morning of January 23, Mr. Li’s building WeChat group received a message that “everyone should concentrate on quarantine”.
“Wake up in the morning, eight o’clock, see the group to discuss this, only to see this message, either the community, or the property sent.”
Mr. Li was notified that the centralized quarantine was set off at 8:30 a.m. The police came knocking on the door to inform about 9:00 a.m. He finished packing up and went downstairs to line up at 10:00 a.m., only to be told that there were no more vehicles, so they could return Home first. By 1 p.m., one by one, people began to come down, he began to queue again at 2 p.m., “probably until three or four o’clock, and then leave. Delayed on the road for a long Time, to the hotel almost evening, at least five o’clock, the sky is turning dark.”
What is incomprehensible to Mr. Li is that the government did not manage the transfer process in a categorical manner, and the owners of units with confirmed cases and those without confirmed cases were all mixed together in the queue and in the bus, and there was no spacing in the seats on the bus.
“It’s not a close connection (of close contacts) also made into a close connection, (the government’s practice) is tragic and inhumane.” He said.
It is understood that the centralized isolation of people in three buildings amounted to six or seven hundred people, were arranged in Fangshan District, Shunyi District, Chaoyang District and other places. From the elderly in their eighties to a few months old baby, adults are basically one person a room.
Mr. Li, more than a hundred people from their unit were placed in the Fangshan Art House Hotel.
He revealed that the meals dispatched every day were cold and cold, and they carried out several reflections before now becoming somewhat warm.
They stayed in the hotel for 2 days, there are multiple people in the group feedback lack of oxygen dizziness, he himself also appeared this symptom.
Mr. Li said that the biggest reason for the symptoms is that some of the hotel windows are internal windows (outside is a closed hall with glass ceiling), nailed by the staff, the owners repeatedly reflect can not be resolved, and even call 12345 also no one replied.

“Imagine a person in a closed room without seeing the sun, staying in isolation for 21 days, will not lead to other dangers such as lack of oxygen suffocation, choking on sterilized water, viruses, depression, etc.”
Mr. Li finally called the doctor stationed at the hotel, and after calling three or four times with no answer, the front desk staff told him the doctor was not at his post. Fearing that Mr. Li would take the matter to his superiors, they instead acceded to Mr. Li’s request and gave him a different room with an open window for ventilation.
Mr. Li also reflected that although the community pulled groups according to buildings, there was no one to manage them, the information was not open and transparent, everyone relied on guesses and read information in various groups, and no one was told how long the isolation would last, making everyone feel more uneasy.
He concluded with exasperation, “This time, we are in a state of complete distrust of the Daxing government, of the capital’s ability to prevent and control the disease and the government, it’s so disappointing.”
