"Yin" and "Yang" are separated, and the moon imprints Wanchuan - Shanghai Epidemic Diary No. 5

At 8:00 a.m. on May 20, Y was woken up by a loudspeaker downstairs: "Come down to do nucleic acid, come down to do nucleic acid". It suddenly occurred to me that those people who were smelting steel in 1958 and 1959 were also awakened by loudspeakers in the early morning: "Come down to make steel, come down to make steel".
At this moment, when God is immersed in understanding, we know that the sky is the same as the day, the night is the same as the moon, and the human beings are of the same heart.
When I got dressed and got up, I remembered the melody of the national anthem, and suddenly I sang "Get up, those who are willing to be slaves, open our mouths and build our new Great Wall."

My sister M, Yangpu and Xuhui met each other from afar, and we went through the magical yin and yang difficulties of May together.
Yang-M said "I'm fine" and the authorities said "You're sick".
Yin - The authorities said "unblocked", Y said "I blocked".

On May 9, the M antigen was positive, and the three consecutive tests were two red bars. In fact, on the 5th, she had already developed a series of symptoms common to omicron: fever, sore throat and headache. However, the antigen nucleic acid has been negative all the way in the past few days. Until the 8th, she worked all night to draw pictures. The next morning, she "liked" to mention covid, and reported all the way, "national certification". A woman who considers herself to be stubborn and has lived independently for many years, a person who has not gone out for more than 30 days, and who has rarely ordered nucleic acids and takeaways every time, also shed tears in front of various discussions in the community.

M asked, even if he thinks he is not wrong, why do he feel wronged, why do he always feel that he has done something wrong?
Y thought, this is about the power of social stigma.

The time is very unfortunate. It happens to be a critical period when the Shanghai government is rushing to the so-called "social clearing", so there is no bargaining power, and it will usher in the fate of the inevitable turnaround. The transfer car is always late at night, and it is already early morning (12:30am) when it arrives at the isolation point. Since M was only positive for antigen and not nucleic acid, he was sent to the resettlement site for isolation and observation.

Antigen positive and close contact are placed here together, and each person will have nucleic acid after five days from the date of arrival.
If it is double negative, it will be sent back to the community, and if the nucleic acid is positive, it will be sent to the shelter.
The trick is that this group of people is not counted in the number of confirmed diagnoses before the nucleic acid is done, and those who are antigen-positive are uniformly marked as "antigen false positives".

Although the resettlement site is a temporary shed, it is one person, one room and an independent bathroom.
Three meals a day are delivered to the door. For a Shanghai resident who has been isolated at home for more than 30 days, he has escaped the haze of cooking, and even has a confused feeling of improving his living standard.
The power of omicron is also not small. I have a fever overnight, a sore throat for two days, headache and diarrhea for five or six days.
However, it did take about seven days for M's symptoms to gradually disappear.

On the 14th, M's antigen was negative. On the 14th, M received nucleic acid sampling.
In theory, if the nucleic acid negative result is obtained the next day, M can go home.

15th, M's birthday. On the 15th, the M antigen remained negative. On the 15th, the nucleic acid test result on M14 was positive.
At 1:00 p.m., M accepted the transfer and went to the Hongqiao Convention and Exhibition Center, which is rumored to be "the best shelter in the city".
In a sense, she had no symptoms on the 15th, and the antigen test was negative for two consecutive days, which can be called "recovered" in many countries.
However, in Shanghai at this moment, only the nucleic acid results are finalized.

The square cabins are mixed with men and women, and people come and go in an endless stream.
Distributed masks, eye masks, toothbrushes and toothbrush cylinders, and a bottle of alcohol sanitizer.
The toilets and showers are outside the convention center, lined up in blue.

After tossing for too long, M has become "good". The rule of the square cabin is to return home if the nucleic acid is negative for two consecutive days.

Nucleic acid was woken up at five in the morning on the 16th, and M opened his mouth in a trance.

As expected, the nucleic acid test results on the 16th and 17th were indeed negative twice in a row, and they could go home on the 19th. That is to say, although he was "recovered" in a medical sense on the 15th, M still accepted a five-day trip to the cabin.

On the evening of the 18th, there were sudden waves, and the neighborhood committee very tactfully asked M to go to the resettlement site for 7 days and then return to the community. The neighborhood committee is really a microcosm of Chinese governance, and the expanded powers and responsibilities in this epidemic are also very interesting. These head-beating decisions with no laws and regulations to follow, of course, need to be rejected. After tossing and going back and forth a few times, M finally returned home on the 19th.
According to regulations, during the home isolation period, there is no need to test for the virus for the first six days, and on the seventh day, medical personnel will come to the door to test for nucleic acid.

So far, M's Shanghai positive fantasy trip has come to an end.

However, she always felt as if she had recovered from covid, her spirit and energy were not the same as before. Not only did people get tired easily, but the old work intensity made her feel overwhelmed. M still has to face a series of problems of post-covid personal recovery and work-life balance.

M's experience made Y think, why a large number of closed communities and schools in Shanghai, after transferring all the confirmed cases and close contacts, often have sporadically and occasionally positive after two weeks of nucleic acid when they remain completely negative.

After combining M's moving line and symptoms, Y made the following inferences:
Logical starting point: A large number of Omicron scientific studies suggest that the probability of human-to-human transmission is very low.
The first inference is that the infection route must (mostly) be human-to-human transmission or aerosol stay transmission.

Fact 1: M has never been out of the house except for nucleic acid and taking 2 takeaways.
The second inference: M was most likely infected by a person or aerosol with the virus during the nucleic acid aggregation process when he went out.

Fact 2: M suddenly had a fever on the 5th, and has had a sore throat since then, showing typical symptoms of the new crown. However, during this period, both the antigen and the nucleic acid were negative until the antigen was positive on the 9th.
The third inference: This means that M can infect others without knowing it for at least five days.

Fact 3: She was antigen-positive because she did not get enough rest from the overnight work the night before.
The fourth inference: it cannot be detected when there are obvious symptoms, and it is detected after the resistance has decreased, indicating that M is entirely possible as an infected person who cannot be detected by nucleic acid antigens to pass the infection period peacefully and infect others.
[Additional facts: M's roommate developed a series of common symptoms such as a sore throat a week before M's symptoms, but the test has always been negative. After M was transferred, the roommate also remained negative. 】

Conclusion: There are a large number of undetectable virus carriers in Shanghai, and behind a single positive cell in each closed community, there may be countless undetectable infected persons who are immune-sound and spread the virus when they gather nucleic acids or release the virus, and whether they can be detected or not. It is a probabilistic event of a struggle between immunity and the virus.

Fact 4: Residents confined to their homes are both inactive and depressed, both of which are detrimental to the body's own immunity.
The fifth inference: Closing the city and closing the community at home is not only not conducive to eliminating the virus, but also provides a hotbed for the virus to parasitize happily.
But then again, who really cares about the right or wrong of this measure?

Echoing each other from a distance, although Y continued to be negative in Yangpu and stayed at home, he also encountered a very unusual seal of May.
The city's officials are filled with the clarion call for unblocking, but the corner of Y is not advancing but retreating, rushing towards a stricter and longer ban.

The entire community has no nucleic acids since May 4, and the daily antigen self-test feels like the countdown to resumption of work and unblocking is ticking in my ears. Who knows, from the 12th to the 20th today, 7 days out of 8 days, people go downstairs on time every morning, mechanically open their mouths in front of the medical staff, repeating their surrender over and over again.

At the end of April, it was possible to "theoretically" go downstairs, clear the social situation, and resume work and production in an orderly manner. These sets of "combination punches" by the authorities were followed by changes in Y's mood at home. The good news on the scene one after another, coupled with several slack signals in the body sense - you can circle around the community, resume work and deliver goods to your door in the neighboring supermarket, and the variety of group-purchased food has greatly increased, all of which have created a feeling that the Long March is coming to an end. , May is the unblocking ladder where a day is better than a day. Who would have thought that it would take another week, two weeks, three weeks to go round and round; instead, it became more and more strict. On the 12th, the entire Yangpu was asked to remain silent for 3 days, followed by 3 days and 3 days, constantly consumes everyone.

What is even more frustrating is that behind this consumption, the government has never given any explanation, only rumors spread in the group; people can only try to understand their own situation from the countless real and fake chat screenshots. .
I heard and heard, maybe this street, maybe that street, in a word, or in a word, some places may be data fraud, maybe the nucleic acid has not been tested, and suddenly there are hundreds of rumored nucleic acid positives. .
Yangpu District immediately changed from a gifted student to the tail end of a crane, becoming the fourth phase of the third phase of the unblocking plan.

On the other hand, Y himself was devastated and found that his beloved dog i suddenly became ill on the 12th and vomited and diarrhoea with blood in the stool. Regardless of the confinement and silence, Y applied for the opportunity to go out of the community to the pet hospital for treatment. In a pet hospital without a doctor, there are only two men left behind, an older brother who cleans and a younger brother who dispenses medicine and gives injections. Another major check was done, and the diagnosis of gastroenteritis was made. The next step is routine treatment, and three or four hours pass by in a flash.

During this period, I listened to the two people's unrelated conversations. They have been in the pet hospital for 40 days. Since the patients cannot come to the door, the male nurse is busy with dispensing medicines, ordering takeaways and running errands every day, which is busier than usual. Sure enough, during this period, a courier came to the door, and the phone ringing every other day confirmed the little brother's complaint.
The night after the treatment ended, it rained again, and the capital Y and the lowercase i returned home soaked in the patter of rain.

Going out again on the 13th, it seems reluctant. Because I missed the nucleic acid test on the 12th, I was asked by the neighborhood committee to do the nucleic acid anyway before leaving. So it was postponed from the morning to the afternoon, and I went to the hospital again with i to repeat the similar steps. As usual, the needle should be suspended for at least three consecutive days. In theory, Y needs to come again on the 14th. However, the younger brother still decided to give me the anti-inflammatory drugs that I will take on the 15th, and Y is about to thank him very much for his foresight.
When returning to the community, everything began to tighten. When entering the community, you still need to show the nucleic acid within 24 hours. However, this set of antigens can only be described as coping, after the process is completed.

On the 15th, the situation took a turn for the worse. The neighborhood committee no longer agrees to go out with nucleic acid because all policies in Yangpu have become stricter.
Y was asked to follow silent instructions and stay at home. Fortunately, anti-inflammatory drugs were prescribed the day before. The supermarkets around the community have long been unable to deliver goods, and orders for group purchases are also required to sit for more than an hour.

When M was transported to the cabin, Y's shake shake burger set was on its way. The variety of group buying has not faded because Yangpu has become the fourth district, and the forces of the market are always tenacious. And Y, finally, after more than two months, can eat hamburgers again.

Along with Hamburg, there was a certain leader who came from nowhere. Along with the leaders, there is also the hard isolation that has caused a storm on the Internet. Compared with the barbed wire fences that were kicked open and protested in the video, the barbed wire fences and baffles in Y's place were smashed and unhindered, and in one day and night, all the shops were blocked behind the blue and white iron plates.

They were stopped together, as well as the group buying car that brought Hamburg.

Obviously, the traffic police are clearing the way for a certain leader who is rumored to come. As for the group purchases that depend on the appetite of the people, all need to wait for the distinguished leaders to come and go. Y suddenly remembered the star-chasing girls who were at iapm more than a year ago. They were crowded in the mall just after 12 o'clock, while Yang Yang would not appear until 5 o'clock. However, the star-chasing girls are willing to wait for their idols to visit; and the residents' wishes, no one cares.
Not long after that, a short video of two police cars driving through and a black car driving past was sent to certain groups in the community.
Even if I rummaged through the news highlights on government websites at all levels, and did not find the name of the distinguished leader sitting in the black car, I could not explain the mysterious itinerary of this mysterious leader. However, he presumably didn't know that because of his passing, the iron wall was erected at an indescribable speed.
This is power.

From the 15th to today, Y's life is the unshakable nucleic acid written at the beginning, all kinds of bread, cakes, all kinds of food, and even flowers. These weak and non-necessities of life, like some kind of ineffable symbols, carry some ordinary and extraordinary meaning, and drive in a completely different dimension from that black car.

At the same time, the three days of silence finally saw little cooperation from the residents. The noise in the garden directly downstairs grew louder and louder. The words of the security guard's expulsion were first "Go back! Go back!"; then changed to "Go home! Cooperate!", and then changed to "Go home, hold on for a while." "The community is still a quiet area, please don't go downstairs", the loudspeaker gradually repeated weakly, and the next day, only "Please don't gather" was heard. Around the 20th, no one mentioned whether the silence had been lifted, and the sound of the horn could not be heard in the laughter of the children, adults and dogs downstairs.

On the 18th, I finished the anti-inflammatory medicine, but on the 19th it was still not very good. The doctor suggested me to prepare more medicines. I continued to work hard with the neighborhood committee, and I agreed to stay at home for three days. Now three days after another, the neighborhood committee has no excuse to ask me any more. Likewise, the way of dealing with people in these institutions can be summed up in one word: soft in body, hard in position.
After I got the entry and exit permit, I contacted the doctor, but last night it was still possible to dispense medicines in special industries, but today it became impossible to dispense medicines after a single call. They were warned by the police guarding the street at the door. Nothing to do, nothing to do.

I stopped the drug for a day, and on the 20th, the situation got worse again. Y didn't know what to do, but thanks to the exchange of news among various pet groups in the community, Y discovered that even in the Yangpu District, there are still differences in the tightness of the closure and control between the streets. Contacted a pet hospital that can dispense medicine. The neighborhood committee kept the certificate that he did not go out to use it yesterday, and Y went out to get medicine in the shower.
Although the location address display of various softwares is paused, in fact, changing the address (for example, changing the automatically located xx community to the x building of xx community) can be used immediately. Y saw this strategy shared by the neighbors on the road back to the city when it was raining heavily, but he was speechless.

However, going out also has its benefits. Riding along this familiar road in Yangpu, watching the bustling traffic and people on the familiar and prosperous road in the past have become sparse, I can't help feeling that arbitrary power can turn a most prosperous city in China into a ghost for more than a month. People always like to believe in the beauty of "concentrating strength to do big things", but forget the horror of "concentrating strength to do bad things". I only hope that the blood and tears in this city for two months will not flow in vain, and can wake up a few people who are addicted to the dream of a "big country".

At the same time, there are obvious differences between streets and streets. Some are surrounded by iron barrels, and no one can be seen, while some have no iron plates at all, or even brightly lit, and people are moving inside the glass doors and windows with the big characters "guarantee shop" brightly pasted. What was broken in the silence stayed at home, the formal control area could not be delivered, and it could be broken with a little trick. I was also confused for a while under the heavy pressure of arbitrary power crushing a city like an iron plate, but I could see the details. All kinds of dense pores, all kinds of tricks, all kinds of detours.

Today at 520, I got two peony from my neighbor.
I wish, the headwind is like a solution, and it is easy not to be destroyed.
