According to the current official regulations of the mainland, passengers must undergo two PCR nucleic acid tests within 48 hours before the flight takes off before entering or leaving the country. This rule is seen as a major nuisance by many travelers. The new regulations “CancelNucleic acid testing declaration for entry-exit personnel”, which immediately triggered discussions among netizens.
First of all, the official statement of the CCP was written in an obscure and incomprehensible manner. More than one netizen complained on Weibo, “Cancel the requirement for declaration of nucleic acid test information for entry-exit personnel# – can it be written in a simple and easy-to-understand manner!”
Others sarcastically asked, “Is this science?” “Is science important?”
Mainland China is still enforcing a strict so-called “zero” epidemic prevention policy. On Wednesday (August 24), Chongqing’s maximum temperature soared to more than 40 degrees Celsius, but authorities ordered more than 10 million people in the central urban area to undergo the mandatory virus Testing, the “health code” of these residents was forcibly turned orange, and only following the completion of the COVID test, the code will turn green, in order to obtain freedom of movement, following Chongqing, Dongzhou Island, Fuyang District, Hangzhou was also blocked by all staff Assign a yellow code.

Some netizens said, “I don’t understand! Those who came back from abroad are relaxed, and those at home are still strict! If you want to mess up China, let’s say it earlier, why bother the honest domestic people?! Does this count as bullying the soft and fearing the hard? The most basic logic, You should also open up the country first, right?”
“Foreign policies have been optimized, what regarding domestic? It’s hard to go anywhere, and it’s hard to die in Beijing.”
“We have been simplifying various entry and exit procedures and opening up for input. However, the unified standards between provinces and cities have not yet been achieved. For example, Beijing has increased the code layer by layer. Until now, as long as there is a case, the entire district or even the city will be shot, and the people will be sent to different places. People pop up the window 3, and every time I go out, I worry that I won’t be able to come back. In Beijing’s standards, risk areas are always decorations.”
Others questioned, “Cancel the test? Isn’t it quarantined?”
Some people speculate that this is a strict “clearing” of Xi Jinping’s face directly, and some people even speculate whether Li Keqiang has come to power. Netizen “Grass Festival” said, “The General Administration of Customs will never dare to issue new regulations on its own initiative. It must be approved by Premier Li Keqiang of the higher-level leading unit. It can be seen that Li Keqiang’s status is on the rise!”
