Today it was announced that the city of Shanghai will be rolling out a 50,000-bed makeshift hospital to better quarantine and treat individuals, built at the National Exhibition and Convention Center.
These lockdowns have also affected U.S. Marines stationed in Shanghai. The South China Morning Post reported today as well, that an U.S. consulate employee posted an S.O.S on WeChat, warning that they were running out of fresh food and supplies, asking for some to spare some rations for the marines there.
Marines have depleted their food and can no longer get delivery.
I know we are all running short on supplies. If you can spare a meal’s worth or two for seven extra mouths, they’d be very appreciative.
The employee told colleagues in Shanghai
Staff later responded by bringing in new supplies, and the marines are reportedly “beyond thankful.”
Because of China’s zero-Covid policies, the lockdowns are very tight as to not allow for any cases to be tolerated, which has been causing many people in the affected cities to already show significant signs of famine and hunger setting in.
One user on Twitter reported on this, writing, “China, the most walled country in the world and the strongest city in the walled country, Shanghai, people are treated like animals, rushing to grab Chinese cabbage. Crazy hungry.”
Some residents have broken the lockdown rules and have protested against authorities on the streets, while other groups out of desperation have raided some of the supplies of goods that were to be distributed.
At the same time, residents cooped up in their apartments began to sing and talk to each other from their windows, but drones swooped in to tell them to stop singing and shut their windows.
Please comply with Covid Restrictions. Control your soul’s thirst for freedom. Do not open the window or sing.
The drone said, translated from Mandarin
ZeroHedge has reported, along with accompanying video evidence popping up on social media, that children as young as 3-months-old are being separated from their breast-feeding mothers. The parents are being completely left in the dark as to what happens to their children, after being extracted from them. Many parents who brought their children into the hospitals for examination are now left sick wondering what has happened to their children.
‘Making matters worse, images of crying children who had been separated from their parents went viral on Chinese social media, filling Zhao with feelings of dread. The photos and videos posted on China’s Weibo and Douyin (the Chinese version of TikTok) social media platforms depicted wailing babies, crowded three to a cot. In one video, a clearly distressed toddler crawled out of a room with four child-sized beds pushed to one side of the wall. Few adults could be seen. While Reuters wasn’t able to independently verify the videos, a sources familiar with the facility confirmed their authenticity, and also confirmed that the facility is situated in at the Jinshan District of Shanghai,’ ZeroHedge explained.
‘While most of these posts had been deleted by the authorities by Saturday, thousands of comments and complaints remained on the sites,’ the outlet added.
The children of Shanghainese were also forcibly quarantined against humanity.
Although I have no feelings for China at all, China has taken too much away from me.
But seeing these little Chinese kids about the same age as mine made me cry…

However, it was also announced today that Shanghai will be pulling back some of their restrictions, with mass-testing though.
The local government will conduct a new round of citywide testing, according to Vice-Mayor Zong Ming, without elaborating on a specific timeline. Based on the results, the city’s residential compounds, villages and business locations will be classified into three zones – lockdown, control and precaution – with different levels of risks and corresponding measures.
Under the city’s new zoning strategy, residents living in locked-down areas will remain barred from leaving their homes, while those in control zones will be allowed to move around within their compounds.
People in the precautionary zones will be able to move around these areas. Certain essential businesses in these areas will be allowed to reopen, with limitations on the number of customers.
Zoning of areas will be adjusted based on subsequent developments in the city’s Covid-19 infection situation, according to authorities.
Shanghai’s Pudong district, located east of the Huangpu River, announced on April 1 a similar zoning plan, which classified most of its subdistricts into lockdown and control zones. The latest plan announced by authorities on Saturday will divide the city into even smaller grids, which would allow for more precise zoning.
South China Morning Post explains
We will implement differentiated policies with the zoning and grading, based on the analysis and results of the nucleic acid tests.
Ming stated at a press conference on Saturday

Just yesterday U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson were not rule out lockdowns returning, and even alluded to a possible scenario for the future.

A poor man that oppresseth the poor is like a sweeping rain which leaveth no food.
Proverbs 28:3
There are so many goals and actions being fulfilled right now, it’s hard to name them all:
- Blatant disruption of supply chains
- Conditioning people to be isolated and separated for the metaverse
- Famine
- More surveillance
- Controlled chaos
- Empty streets as an excuse for “climate lockdowns” and “car-free Sundays”
- Judgment upon the Chinese for their wickedness

[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

It’s crazy
Makes me wonder if similar things will happen here in America or worse.
I started reading Exodus, this reminds me of how oppressive the Pharaohs were to the Jews; Issued edicts of killing newborns, harsh labor, famines, “pestilence”- it’s as if life goes on, the more things stay the same.
