Shanghai has now been locked down for a month under the Chinese communist regime’s “zero-COVID” policy.
Daily life, manufacturing production, and supply chains have been severely disrupted.
Recently, Shanghai authorities have been pushing for the resumption of production in manufacturing, but the progress has been slow, and some enterprises are having difficulty resuming work under the indefinite lockdown, as workers are unable to get back to work.
Residents in Shanghai said that the damage to the economy will be long-lasting.
Chinese officials recently also claimed that a “dynamic clearing” COVID-19 pandemic control policy and economic development are not in opposition to each other.
