Beijing has again fallen into the trap of coronavirus. A state of emergency declared in several areas. Educational institutions were closed. June 19 in Beijing suspended passenger transportation with other regions of China. Attempts by the authorities of the Chinese capital to quickly localize the nidus of infection was not successful. The virus in the neighboring province. Russians living in Beijing and vicinity, told about the situation in the regions.

Guide Ekaterina Kazmina lives in Fengtai district, – there is a wholesale market “Sinhali”, where he revealed the source of contamination. A few days ago, the girl published a post on his page in Instagram: “Beijing has become the second Wuhan. For a long time we have not been sick, or have identified 1-2 per day. And then one day recorded eighty cases. Shortly before this, the Chinese government has weakened the mode of increased caution. Residents were allowed to move freely around the country. The result was not long to wait.”

– You live near a market?

– Yes, I live in the area that is now recognized the most dangerous. The level of danger here raised from the third to the second.

– Dangerous areas cordoned off?

– Nothing is cordoned off, and the city itself is still open. Closed a lot of apartment complexes to visit and has introduced throughput mode.

– I Think that more stringent restrictions will not follow?

– Yet more firmly did not. Just some areas are back to strict mode.

the Chinese again took their homes?

– as far As I know and see, the Chinese home didn’t sit down. But the number of cars on roads became less. Perhaps residents of dangerous neighborhoods was transferred to work online.

– That is, on the street you can get out safely?

– to Leave no one stops. Residents of the southern part of Beijing not only actively recommend to travel and visit other areas of the city.

SC you have not closed?

– Shops operate without interruption.

– Public transport metro work?

Yes, everything works perfectly. Domestically, too, can move, subject to certain conditions. But there is a big chance to sit in quarantine where you left.

People pass the tests?

– Yes, and this is welcomed. In the city forty hospitals to get tested.

Salmon from the sale of seized? Initially said that this product was the source of spreading the virus.

– In larger shops it was removed from sale. In restaurants on Sunday evening, the salmon was still on the menu. Indeed, initially said the cause of the outbreak was imported salmon. Honestly, this is ridiculous. Most likely, the infected person has returned from some province, started to cough in the workplace.

Schools and educational institutions were closed?

– a Week ago, opened the universities, but after the flash all the students again transferred to distance education.

You’re worried again you have to sit in isolation?

All would be nothing, but I was in isolation worried about the lack of work, no money. Rent and any payments for one of the foreigners is not canceled.

Psychologically, the second time will be hard to stay home all the time?

– the House is not sitting, your personal choice. We are not Wuhan. It is unlikely that we will be closed. But sharply there is a financial issue — it is psychologically difficult.

“Many Chinese people are still reeling from the first wave of the epidemic”

Photographer Eugene Tangiev lives in one of the four provinces which have identified a new wave of virus – Liaoning province, Shenyang city. The young man described the situation in the region.

Market, where it all began, is not in our city. But I’ve seen many markets in China, I will say this – all the same, everywhere crowds of people and unsanitary conditions. We have the virus appeared two days after revealed in Beijing. Although our city is the capital of 680 km.

you Have introduced a state of emergency?

– we Have a quiet, military is not visible, life goes on as usual. But, remembering the first wave, I think everything can change in one day. God forbid.

– the Chinese are scared of the second wave, were shut up in their homes?

– the Chinese do not sit at home. Everyone minds their own business. Works catering, open parks, gyms. No restrictions. Educational institutions have also not closed, knock on wood.

– out of the province can be?

– you can Go. But at the check out or departure, passengers shall present the test result.

in General, residents are required to pass the tests?

– Nobody is forced, if desired. I passed four days ago, paid 110 yuan (about 1000 rubles) in the evening and the result is ready.

Flights from Beijing to other cities canceled?

– a lot of flights from Beijing were canceled.

we say that to China came more contagious virus. What do you say about this?

says the vaccine has almost developed a calm that all will be well.

– How to lead the Chinese after the easing of restrictive measures?

– the Chinese compared to Russians in this respect is more cowardly. Some still shy away, if, for example, appeal to him in the street asking to clarify the address. Many of my Chinese friends have not moved away from the first wave of the epidemic, closed the house in the winter, still afraid to leave the apartment. On the other hand, I see crowds of people on the streets without masks and gloves. People are different.

In China they say that this virus will have to live forever?

– Many here think so.

the Chinese are concerned about the arrival ofohms second wave?

– Yes, but not because sick, but because they incur losses.

– I guess people just breathed it all ended, and here we are again, it’s time to close the house.

– I and for the first time not sitting at home. Walked all day, took pictures of the empty streets. There was access control at the exit from the territory of the community, but I climbed over the fence and out.

What else is new notice now?

– so many things. In this city I arrived five days ago. To me, once arrived, were not allowed in stores, restaurants, and other public institutions. Had to get out. It got to the point that I called the security chief of a shopping Mall, I understood why I closed the entrance.

to be honest, I think the country is again going to be hell. The Chinese were proud that they were safe, forgetting who was the source of infection. Now he again is very awkward. Were trying to get listed again the infection on imported salmon, but then denied themselves.

– People are afraid of the second wave?

– it is Difficult to say too early. As you begin to brainwash local media about the number of victims, then people just begin again to hide. Now there is no active promotion.

Eugene sent us some photos from the streets of Beijing. People – no less than in Moscow Patriarch’s ponds.

– These pictures I have done in the last 3-4 days, when already being trumpeted about the second wave of the epidemic, adds the source. – Please note, people some wearing masks, some not. People on the street dancing, singing karaoke songs. Let’s see what happens in a week.
