Thousands of people gather in front of a hospital in Shanghai.



The line is endless, even if you go backwards.



Citizens who want to undergo a COVID-19 PCR test.



[Shanghai citizen: I waited in line for over 2 hours, but I still haven't been tested.

There are so many people here.]



As it took three or four hours just to get the test, complaints arose from all over the place.



[Shanghai Citizen: Everyone here has stood in line for 3 to 4 hours, but what should we do if you miss out?]



On the 1st, the city of Shanghai lifted the lockdown after 65 days, entering shopping centers, offices, etc., or using public transportation. When using, you are required to present a 'Corona 19 negative certificate within 72 hours'.



For this purpose, more than 10,000 inspection stations were set up, but some did not open their doors and the inspection times were different, so endless queues appeared everywhere.



Some test centers were controversial because they said that they would only test people who had a negative certificate, and they were often unable to go out because the test results they received the day before did not come out.



As citizens' complaints continued, the Shanghai city authorities hastily apologized.



[Shaker Zhao/Shanghai Corona Inspection Team: We apologize to the citizens.

After discovering the problem, we increased the number of inspection personnel and inspection windows for some branches.]



There are places that are closed again as people infected with Corona 19 come out.



Four residential complexes in Pudong and other areas were classified as medium-risk areas and again entered into a 14-day lockdown.



Of Shanghai's 25 million population, 2.5 million, or 10%, are still in quarantine.



Shanghai's lockdown has been lifted, but fears of endless testing and re-locking persist.
