The authorities are launching “epidemic prevention measures” that are even more inhumane than last year’s. There are concerns that more human tragedies may be brewing. A man in Shijiazhuang had to steam his expensive pet goldfish after his neighborhood was sealed off for lack of ingredients, and broadcast it live on the Internet.

According to the mainland media, on January 9, a man surnamed Jiang in Shijiazhuang, Hebei Province, will be steamed to eat the family’s goldfish. In the webcast, the man fished the fish out of the fish tank, then started to kill the fish to remove the scales and put it into the pot to steam.

The man said the fish was bought a year ago with 2,500 yuan, when it was only 25 centimeters, but now it has grown to 40 centimeters. After buying it, he never fed the fish feed, usually fed shrimp.

After the video was broadcast, it sparked a lot of debate among netizens. Jiang Nan then came out to explain that Shijiazhuang is closed, it was the fourth day of their own community was closed, the home refrigerator has indeed nothing to eat, the fish did not look much spirit, simply eat it.

The local supermarket started an online delivery service after the film went live, and now there are ingredients available at home.

The Communist government often suddenly closes cities and neighborhoods, and even welds doors of buildings during “epidemic prevention,” often resulting in a shortage of food and necessities for residents, and leaving the elderly and children who are not well-informed in dire straits. When the epidemic broke out last year, there were cases of the elderly, sick and disabled starving to death or jumping to their death in many places in Hubei.

With the recent outbreak in Liaoning and Hebei, the local government has offered a greater range of containment measures than last year. On the 28th of last month, a video was posted on the Internet of residents of the Guanshan Yue neighborhood in Jinzhou, Dalian, collectively shouting “for supplies and food” at night.
