People in China are more afraid of lockdown than corona virus. Many such videos are coming out from Shanghai and other cities, which are proof of this. One such video is going viral on Twitter in which a woman is thrown down on the ground for a COVID test. As the video begins, the woman is seen lying on the floor of a test center with a man on top. She is screaming and trying to forcefully resist Test, but the man grabs her hands with his knees and grabs her firmly.
After this, the woman’s mouth is forcibly opened and only then the health worker wearing the suit takes the swab sample. The veracity of the video has not been confirmed in the media report. This video is being shared a lot on the internet. One user tweeted and said how horrifying this is. How the poor and weak people are subdued. This is sad, absolutely unbearable.

More such videos went viral
Users have posted more such videos, in which Chinese health workers can be seen forcing them to undergo mandatory COVID tests. Health workers had forcibly entered an old man’s house last month and conducted a COVID test on him. The video was first posted on Weibo, the equivalent of Twitter in China, and then started being shared on other platforms as well. It is not known where this video was taken. But it comes at a time when residents of Shanghai have been going through a stringent lockdown for more than a month.
Massive COVID Test going on in Beijing
As a precaution, China’s capital Beijing has also closed more than 40 metro stations, and 158 bus routes. Media reports said most of the suspended stations and routes are in Chaoyang district, the epicenter of Beijing’s outbreak. Twelve of Beijing’s 16 districts are testing the second of three this week. Three mass screenings were conducted last week. Along with this, people in Beijing have been instructed to work from home. Permission is given to go out only when absolutely necessary.
