On Feb 5 and Feb 6, 2020, Taiwan’s leading news portal ETtoday reported that Liaoning and Jiangxi provinces both announced lockdowns of residential communities across the entire province.
Each of the two provinces has a population of well over 40 million.
Over 36 Chinese cities have imposed restrictions on residents, preventing them from leaving home. The lockdown of a residential community means that anyone without official authorization is not allowed to enter the neighborhood. Jiangxi province’s measure has a further restriction that only one person in each family is allowed to go out shopping every other day.
Excerpt in Chinese:
遼寧省新型冠狀病毒感染的肺炎疫情防控指揮部昨(5)日印發《全省城鄉社區(村)疫情嚴查嚴控措施30條的通知》,針對全省的所有社區皆採取「封閉管理」,且出入都需測量體溫。通知中強調,除了嚴格排查每個人的健康狀況及密切接觸者外,也呼籲居民少出門,並且互相督處,若有看見發病者立即通報。
除了遼寧省外,江西省今(6)日也發布《關於進一步強化疫情防控十條措施的公告》,要求所有社區一律實行「封閉式管理」,且居住人員需憑有效證件進出,同時進行體溫測量。通知中也指出,除特殊需要外,每戶家庭(居家隔離家庭除外)每2天只能指派1名家庭成員外出採購生活物資。
隨著武漢肺炎疫情快速擴散,繼湖北武漢市封城後,合肥、昆明、自貢市,以及遼寧、江西全省近日皆採取小區「封閉管理」;據悉,大陸目前至少有36個城市先後實施不一樣的封鎖措施,希望疫情能盡快得到控制。
