Chinese officials hammer iron bars on homes amid Delta fear

Residents of China are being locked inside their homes as a result of the covid surge. Several videos have gone viral showing Chinese authorities locking residents inside their homes.

Video footage shows personnel in hazmat suits installing iron bars on people’s doors to prevent anyone from leaving the building.

It is thought that the move resembles Wuhan’s extreme tactics at the start of the pandemic. Delta spread over the past several weeks has created a challenge to China’s control of the pandemic.
