Mainland China officially reported more than 39,000 new cases of COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019) today and is on the brink of crossing the 40,000 mark. At such a severe time of the epidemic, the Chaoyang District, the capital of Beijing, the hardest-hit area, announced that there is no need to go out People can be exempt from nucleic acid tests Before this, the protests against the blockade have erupted in various parts of mainland China.

On the evening of the 29th, the Haizhu District of Guangzhou City, which had been closed several times due to the epidemic, saw a video of a broken conflict between police and civilians released on Twitter last night. The footage shows that at about 11 o’clock last night, a large number of riot police armed with batons and shields and wearing white protective gear took the lead in a square formation, trampled the torn down epidemic fence and marched towards a messy street The people brought in were taken away by the police.
